Biodesix partners with Thermo Fisher on tumor — naïve MRD blood test program

Biodesix expanded its MRD strategy through collaborations with Bio-Rad for tumor-informed ctDNA monitoring and Thermo Fisher for a tumor-naïve assay. Bio-Rad program uses Droplet Digital PCR to track patient-specific tumor changes in blood, targeting detection below 1 part per million. Thermo Fisher program uses Genexus sequencing to detect methylated ctDNA without tumor tissue, widening eligibility for MRD monitoring. Both approaches will be validated with investigators at Memorial Sloan Kettering, designed for deployment on partner platforms already installed globally.
