Madman,

Do you ask for results of your Signatera from Netera or do you ask for readout from your Oncologist?

It is so hard to not be cynical. If you look at the small biotech sector, it has and is being pummeled on the capital markets. It is complex, but many promising platforms are abandoned, shopped to large pharma, but often lay dormant. The approval processes in the States, also differ widely then othe...

In general, the takeaway was that reliance on liquid biopsy alone is not recommended, but it can sometimes find things earlier. Google city of hope Signatera for some articles on this small study.
