Predictive to present results on development of real-time multiplexed PCR FGFR3 assay at ASCO 2011

Predictive BiosciencesFeb 19 2011

Predictive Biosciences today announced that the Company will be presenting results on the development of a real-time multiplexed PCR assay for detection of FGFR3 mutations in urine and tissue at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2011 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium being held February 17 - 19 in Orlando, Florida. Results will also focus on the application of the assay which is currently being used in Predictive's first commercial molecular grading product, the CertNDx^TM Molecular Grading Assay.

“Development of a real-time multiplex PCR assay for the detection of FGFR3 mutations in urine”
