Flatiron Health today announced three Flatiron-authored abstracts have been accepted for poster discussion and presentations at the 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, to be held June 3-7.

"As demonstrated by our research at ASCO this year, we are at the forefront of our industry to improve patient lives through the power of integrated evidence, and are committed to advance equitable care for all patients," said Carolyn Starrett, Flatiron CEO. "At Flatiron, we are reimagining the infrastructure of cancer care. We bring together science, technology, and medicine to transform possibilities into results and solve critical challenges with our partners."

Highlights include:

• an investigation that uses one of the largest real-world datasets with a telemedicine variable available to assess patterns of use among patients with cancer during the COVID pandemic, illuminating health inequity
• a study that uses integrated evidence to quantify the clinical value of multi-gene testing in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, showcasing potential benefit in treatment decision-making
• a study that evaluates and understands the value of ctDNA as a non-invasive tool to treat patients with advanced NSCLC by leveraging the Flatiron Health-Foundation Medicine Clinico-Genomic Database
