Unparalleled sensitivity
Haystack MRD
MRD testing demands the most sensitive ctDNA detection. The Haystack MRD test is a tumor-informed ctDNA test that is specifically designed for post-surgical MRD applications.
Residual disease detection
Go beyond standard risk assessment for adjuvant chemotherapy guidance to ensure the right treatment for the right person at the right time.
Treatment response monitoring
Track ctDNA levels during adjuvant chemotherapy or second-line therapy to monitor treatment response and acquired resistance.
Disease recurrence surveillance
Detect molecular recurrence with greater lead time before clinical relapse.
Transformative precision
