Guardant360 ResponseTM is the first blood-only liquid biopsy to view changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) levels from a simple blood draw to assess early whether a patient is responding to immunotherapy or targeted treatment. The test gives oncologists confidence ahead of scans that treatment is working when ctDNA levels are decreasing, or to allows oncologists to start planning next course of clinical action earlier when ctDNA levels are increasing.
RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) is the standard way for oncologists to measure patient treatment response and is based on whether tumors change in size. To use RECIST, there must be at least one tumor that can be measured on X-rays, CT scans, or MRI tests. Studies across cancers and therapies show the Guardant360 Response test can assess a patient’s treatment response 8 weeks earlier than standard-of-care assessing tumor response using RECIST measurements. 1-10
