HALO Diagnostics and Genomic Testing Cooperative Partner to Advance Early Cancer Detection and Precision Diagnostics
HALO Diagnostics, a precision diagnostics leader, has joined forces with the Genomic Testing Cooperative (GTC) to offer innovative, personalized testing to its physician network and 1 Million+ patients served. This solution combines HALO Diagnostics’ clinical ensemble and image-guided therapies with GTC’s genomic profiling of a patient’s DNA / RNA using liquid biopsy and tissue samples. Together, the companies will help patients on every step of their unique healthcare journey – from detection and diagnosis to prognosis and treatment.
For decades, patients have faced a one-size-fits-all approach to their health. They are now calling for more prompt, personalized care. With this partnership, HALO Diagnostics and GTC are ready to answer this call.
Recent therapeutic approvals in HALO Diagnostics’ core clinical areas such as prostate, breast, and lung cancers have focused on targeted therapies and immunotherapies. Before treatment can begin, patients undergo biomarker testing. This is where GTC comes in: The company’s comprehensive test panels simultaneously query key DNA / RNA alterations, guiding decision making for patients’ treatment plans.
