New Validation Data Shows Promise for AOA Dx Ovarian Cancer Early Detection Test The firm presented data at AACR that showed the test had high accuracy when distinguishing ovarian cancer at early stages.

Dr. Kian Behbakht and AOA Dx CEO Oriana Papin-Zoghbi spoke with 360Dx about the urgent need for better ovarian cancer diagnostics, highlighting how vague symptoms delay care and the role of innovation and data in closing this critical diagnostic gap. #OvarianCancer

CDMRP-funded cancer research was a strong commitment from the US that it cares about improving the outcomes for people with this terrible disease. The 57% cut to CDMRP highlights the total disrespect and lack of commitment from this administration to Americans with cancer.

There is SO MUCH RESEARCH that will simply NOT HAPPEN without these funds. We will be set back DECADES.

And for what? Greed. Hate. Spite.

I am crushed for the team at CDMRP that continues to support us, and for the work that will never be done.

Eager to hear my Rep, @degette.house.gov , and @bennet.senate.gov, respond to these seismic cuts. This isn't cost cutting or trimming fat, it's destroying the foundation of research and medical infrastructure in this country. Heartened to see @murray.senate.gov's response.

This is what amounts to an ILLEGAL & indiscriminate funding cut for research centers everywhere. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, and derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction.

We all need to speak out to save lives.
