DELFI Diagnostics Working with Incendia Therapeutics to Employ Advanced Treatment Monitoring Test in a Phase 1 Clinical Trial (PRNewswire)
"DELFI Diagnostics...today announced that Incendia Therapeutics will use the DELFI-TF Monitoring assay as part of their suite of assays for evaluation of treatment response and disease progression in patients enrolled in their Phase I clinical trial (NCT05753722)....One key advantage of the DELFI TF assay is that it requires under 1 mL of plasma — considerably less than the volume needed for other cfDNA assays. This low volume is particularly beneficial in early clinical studies that require large volumes of blood for other assessments, such as pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses."

DELFI Diagnostics Study on Cancer Treatment Monitoring Using Fragmentomes Featured in Nature Communications (PRNewswire)
P3 | N=564 | CAIRO5 (NCT02162563) | "DELFI Diagnostics...is announcing the publication...in Nature Communications that demonstrates the effectiveness of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentomes as a means of assessing tumor burden for treatment response, monitoring, and clinical outcome prediction. cfDNA fragmentomes are tumor and mutation-independent, and the approach described in the paper (called DELFI-Tumor Fraction or 'DELFI-TF') requires only 800ul of plasma....The new paper further demonstrates the characteristics of DELFI-TF in two independent validation cohorts. 'DELFI-TF is a locked machine learning classifier validated in two independent cohorts of colorectal and lung cancer patients and can detect clinical outcomes earlier than imaging. This work demonstrates the potential of DELFI-TF to estimate tumor burden for accurate treatment-response monitoring and clinical outcome prediction.'"
