Up again, 2.7%. The rise is for one, more, or all of these reasons IMHO.22 May 2025 12:24
1. Astrazeneca are now using CtDna analysis to guide treatment options during their drug trials. Angle's "dual analysis” is better. It is the "normal" CtDna analysis plus circulating tumour cell (CTC) analysis combined giving far better results and the complete picture. This could be massive for Angle. Pharma Co’s should SAVE MONEY and patients lives using analysis to see if the treatments are working almost live rather than weeks/months later. Treatments can be stopped if not working and alternatives applied.
2. The Illumina connection.
Joint promotion of "dual analysis" with Illumina. No word on this yet. However, from Illumina's point of view why not? They have already created an assay panel working with Angle specifically for dual analysis of lung cancer. Illumina's share price has been suffering of late. What if they go for this bigtime? Astrazeneca are doing a trial now that uses CtDna to test what drug to use. Dual analysis goes one step further. CtDna analysis and CTC Dna analysis of the same blood sample roughly doubling the number of cancer biomarkers found.
If Illumina don't go for it bigtime some other Company likely will in any case.
3. Results any day.
All IMHO.
