Independent Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Attests to the Significant Risk Stratification Provided by Castle Biosciences’ DecisionDx-Melanoma Test, Contributing to Personalized Management of Patients with Melanoma (Businesswire)
"The authors evaluated peer-reviewed articles that analyzed DecisionDx-Melanoma risk class data alongside at least one survival-based metric with a minimum of three years of follow-up...Across all studies, the DecisionDx-Melanoma test consistently stratified patients into risk groups with significantly different outcomes. The five-year melanoma-specific survival rates were: 99.8% (95% CI: 98–100%) for patients with a Class 1A/lowest risk test result, 97.6% (95% CI: 92.4–99.3%) for patients with a Class 1B/2A/increased risk test result and 83.4% (95% CI: 66.5–92.7%) for patients with a Class 2B/highest risk test result. Similar trends were observed for recurrence-free and distant metastasis-free survival, showing a significant separation of risk between patients with Class 1A and Class 2B test results."

In the study, the nomogram misclassified nine out of 10 tumors that metastasized as low risk. When the same tumors were tested using DecisionDx-SCC, 42% of those that the nomogram classified as low risk of metastasis were classified as high risk by the test, as well as 70% of all tumors that metastasized. These data demonstrate that DecisionDx-SCC improves the accuracy of risk assessment based solely on clinicopathological risk factors, leading to more appropriate risk-aligned management plans for patients with high-risk SCC."
