Guiding treatment decisions for patients with advanced stage cancer with a simple blood draw

Guardant Health ’ s non-invasive liquid biopsy test helps identify appropriate therapy options in approximately seven days upon sample receipt in the laboratory .

The

®
Guardant360 test is Guardant Health ’ s breakthrough liquid biopsy for patients with advanced stage cancer . This test is done using circulating tumor DNA ( ctDNA ), which is produced when tumors shed small pieces of their genetic material into the bloodstream . Traces of this ctDNA can be detected in the blood using digital sequencing technology . Over 70 clinically relevant genes are examined in the test to identify genomic alterations within a patient ’ s cancer DNA . This helps oncologists understand which alterations exist in a patient ’ s cancer without the complications and delays of a tissue biopsy . With just a simple and noninvasive blood draw from the patient , oncologists will be able to see test results in approximately one week from sample receipt in the laboratory . With this fast and reliable comprehensive genomic profiling information about the patient ’ s tumor , oncologists can recommend appropriate treatment for their patients sooner .
