Myriad Genetics released new data from the MONSTAR-SCREEN-3 study showing its Precise MRD™ platform can detect molecular residual disease (MRD) with high sensitivity in patients with resectable colorectal and pancreatic cancers. The test uses whole-genome sequencing to identify circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at very low levels, enabling earlier detection of cancer recurrence compared to conventional methods. In colorectal cancer patients, ctDNA detection one month post-surgery predicted recurrence with a median lead time of four months. Initial findings in pancreatic cancer also showed MRD detection correlated with worse recurrence-free survival, highlighting the test's potential to guide post-surgical monitoring and treatment decisions. These results will be presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress 2026.
Myriad Genetics' new data on ultra-sensitive MRD detection in colorectal and pancreatic cancers provides context for health sector investors.
