Guardant Health to present data at ASCO GI supporting use of liquid biopsy to predict colon cancer recurrence

COSMOS study shows Guardant Reveal™ blood test highly predictive for disease recurrence in patients with early-stage colon cancer without need for tissue specimen

Guardant Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: GH), a leading precision oncology company, will present interim data from the COSMOS study supporting the use of Guardant Reveal to predict disease recurrence in patients with early-stage colon cancer at the ASCO 2024 Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, January 18-20 in San Francisco.

Guardant Reveal analyzes comprehensive molecular signals in the blood to detect and quantify minimal residual disease (MRD). The COSMOS study evaluated the use of the newest version of the test, built on the Guardant Infinity™ smart liquid biopsy platform, to identify MRD and predict disease recurrence in 130 patients with early-stage (II and III) colon cancer. Interim data to be shared at ASCO GI suggest the test is both highly specific (low false positives) and predictive for recurrence, without dependence on a tissue sample.

“Studies have established the presence of residual disease after surgery is associated with a higher probability of recurrence in early-stage colon cancer,” said Craig Eagle, M.D., Guardant Health chief medical officer. “The interim COSMOS data are very promising and support the use of Guardant Reveal to predict disease recurrence and help inform adjuvant therapy decisions for patients with Stage II or III colon cancer.”

Guardant and its research partners will also present multiple posters at the symposium highlighting the application of Guardant technology in blood-based screening and in identifying potentially targetable mutations in GI cancers, including predictive markers for treatment resistance.
