Company Summary
Our company has developed a non-invasive blood test, a liquid biopsy, to monitor cancer as it develops and is treated during therapy. The advantages of our approach include the ability to take serial biopsies with little risk, isolate live cancer cells and obtain genetic information from those cells that the oncologist can use to direct therapy (personalized medicine).
