Illumina Spin-off to Develop Early-Detection Test

Janet Colwell. Cancer Discov. 2016 Apr.

Abstract

DNA-sequencing giant Illumina has formed a new company, called Grail, to develop liquid biopsies capable of spotting cancer before symptoms arise. The start-up is working on a low-cost "pan-cancer" test that can detect multiple cancer types early, which it hopes to introduce by 2019.
