Liquid biopsies provide more therapy options for more patients

Hedera Dx’s liquid biopsy solution will radically streamline tumor profiling, enabling hospital labs to run clinically actionable liquid biopsies in-house.

With a simple blood test, liquid biopsies profile circulating tumor DNA

Insights from circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) found in the blood enable a more personalized treatment plan for a better outcome.

However, adoption is difficult and reporting is time consuming with existing liquid biopsy solutions

IVD compliance, privacy infrastructure, and validation are challenging to achieve, and even if these obstacles are overcome, existing software workflows are inefficient to run and lack essential features.

liquid biopsy solution will expand treatment options for patients — without the hurdles

Our solution integrates swiftly into your existing laboratory setting with unrivaled simplicity.

How it works

A radically streamlined biopsy process

Blood draw

If a physician determines that a liquid biopsy is needed to find the best treatment option for their patient, a simple blood draw is ordered.

Sequencing

After the patient’s blood sample is sent to the lab, ctDNA is extracted from the plasma and sequenced.

Clinical report

Using our platform, a report is generated that matches EMA-approved therapies to the patient’s tumor ctDNA sequence.

Therapy options

The physician and the patient discuss the report results and determine the best path forward for treatment.

Clinical applications of ctDNA-based liquid biopsies for patients with cancer are broad

Hedera Dx will be launching its first solution for biomarkers-guided  treatment selection in advanced disease.
