In patients who undergo initial anticancer treatments, a small number of tumor cells can survive and persist in the body. This low ‘disease burden’ is capable of leading to a relapse, which can remain undetectable by traditional genomic and imaging methods. Timely detection of this ‘minimal residual disease’ is now considered critical towards mitigating risks of recurrence.
Target-MRD offers personalized, ultra-sensit
ive detection and monitoring of residual disease at the molecular level, if any, to assist oncologists to intervene early, well before the disease gets out of hand. Target-MRD combines tumor-agnostic (to detect tumor evolution) and tumor-informed (specific to a patient’s cancer) biomarkers thus offering a comprehensive and ultra-high sensitivity solution for more effective disease management
