#JPM2021 #ExactSciences #LiquidBiopsy My highlights: I will focus on the liquid biopsy / #epigenomics profiling side of the presentation, which is where my interest lies: Exact described the data from Thrive multi-cancer screening, based on 'mutation+protein' 
The details they gave on their other recent acquisition, #BaseGenomics are illuminating: they will use their bisulfite-free methylation profiling method for their Cologuard 2.0 test for CRC, but also for the multi-cancer test, and possibly the MRD test as well.
So this means that #ExactSciences intend to upgrade their tech in two steps: from current Cologuard 1.0 to a new test that includes Thrive's tech, and then a second upgrade using the #BaseGenomics #Epigenomics profiling tech.
#JPM2021 #AdaptiveBiotech My Highlights: my interest lies in their angle on #LiquidBiopsy for #EarlyCancerDiagnostics, but they also deal with Life Science Research and Drug Discovery.
Their T-Detect method is aiming at #MRD monitoring, here shown in a slide that relates it to their ImmunoSEQ T-MAP Cancer mapping tool, and their Identification of clinical TCR candidates.
They stress the T-cell Diagnostics angle in different slides. I recall only @freenome explicitly mentioning immune-profiling from the group of companies in early cancer diagnostics and #epigenomics profiling (Grail/GH/Thrive/Freenome/BioStar/CEGX/etc.)
