Liquid biopsy offers a screening option to diagnose early-stage cancers via a single blood test. To drive clinical adoption, multi-omic approaches will help improve test accuracy.

Liquid biopsy detected targetable mutations in one-third of patients (n = 33) who opted for that test alone.

The researchers also followed a patient for 2.5 years and found that they could detect EML4-ALK in the liquid biopsy a good two months before it was possible to use radiography to confirm the disease.

The liquid biopsy showed her cancer had developed what’s called resistance to Tarceva, but suggested it might be knocked back by a newer drug called Tagrisso, or osimertinib. It’s another pill.

On-Q-ity, a liquid biopsy startup based in Waltham, Mass., folded in 2013. One of its investors said the technology would likely not be market-ready for another five to 10 years.
