Aster Insights Announces AACR Schedule of ORIEN Presentations

Researchers will present seven collaborative studies utilizing Aster Avatar and ORIEN multimodal data

TAMPA, Fla., March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Aster Insights, the leading provider of scientific and clinical intelligence for oncology discovery, today announced its schedule of research presentations at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting in San Diego, California, April 5-10, 2024. The seven abstracts, which are a combination of oral and poster presentations, will be presented by researchers from institutions within the Oncology Research Information Exchange Network(®) (ORIEN), a research consortium administered by Aster Insights. All abstracts utilize data from ORIEN and Aster Avatar, the best-in-class, deepest multimodal dataset for discovery research in oncology.

The abstracts cover a broad range of research across several cancer types, including predictors of response to immunotherapy, the role of the tumor microbiome in patient outcomes, and the study of cancer in minority patient populations. Several of the presentations are ORIEN(®) intermember studies developed by the consortium's research interest groups, which are designed to increase multidisciplinary, collaborative research among premier national cancer centers. Additionally, most of the abstracts include co-investigators from Aster Insights' scientific leadership, reflecting the unique roles of both the company and ORIEN(®) in driving critical cancer discovery.

"There is no better demonstration of the versatility of Aster Insights and ORIEN than the selection of abstracts that will be presented at AACR this year," said Dr. Anand Shah, CEO of Aster Insights. "The breadth of these investigations is a testament to the impact we have by bringing together the best expertise in cancer research to unlock new treatments and cures."
