Evaluate treatment response sooner
Predict response
to immunotherapy after just 2 cycles
98%
of patients with an increase in ctDNA at the beginning of cycle 3 did not derive an objective response to immunotherapy treatment.¹
Identify
exceptional responders
100%
OS in patients who cleared ctDNA for at least one on-treatment time point (median follow-up beyond first clearance of 25.4 months)¹
Longitudinal monitoring with Signatera™ helps answer critical questions
Signatera™ quantifies ctDNA over time to provide a real-time assessment of changes in disease burden during immunotherapy (IO) treatment.¹
Discover the treatment response monitoring data
INSPIRE trial: Predict immunotherapy response across solid tumors
The INSPIRE trial validated Signatera™ ctDNA testing as an early biomarker of immunotherapy response with 98% baseline ctDNA detection across 94 patients and 25 solid tumor types.¹
Melanoma: Inform risk-based treatment selection and monitor immunotherapy response
69 advanced melanoma patients monitored across 555 plasma timepoints to determine if ctDNA can help risk-stratify patients for disease recurrence and predict response to immunotherapy.²
NSCLC: Inform early treatment escalation on immunotherapy
Signatera™ was evaluated in the EMPower Lung-1 trial, a prospective study in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC randomized to ICI vs chemotherapy for 1L treatment.³
Learn how Signatera™ MRD testing informed the treatment strategy for a patient fighting melanoma.
“Signatera™ gives us confidence with how we think about what’s going on with the patient … their prognosis and whether or not we are doing the right thing for them.”
– Steven Liu, MD, medical oncologist
Comprehensive patient insights and Molecular Residual Disease Detection from the same tumor tissue
Altera™ empowers personalized therapy selection by identifying treatments most likely to benefit patients based on their tumor biomarkers and cancer type. The comprehensive report covers both well-established cancer driver genes and less common but actionable biomarkers, giving clinicians deeper insights to guide informed treatment decisions. Combine with Signatera™ MRD testing using the same tissue to optimize patient management throughout the treatment journey.
