What is the Signatera ctDNA Blood Test?

The Signatera test works by identifying and monitoring circulating tumor DNA—tiny fragments of DNA that shed from cancer cells and enter the bloodstream. Unlike traditional tumor markers, which may lack specificity, Signatera is personalized for each patient’s unique tumor DNA signature. This custom approach means that even small fluctuations in tumor DNA levels can be detected, allowing for highly sensitive and accurate monitoring of cancer presence or recurrence.

How the Signatera Test Supports Cancer Healing

The Signatera ctDNA test is a vital tool for personalizing and improving cancer care in several ways:

  • Detection of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD): The test can identify whether any residual cancer cells remain after initial treatment, providing critical insights for patients and their doctors. By catching MRD early, patients can address cancer recurrence proactively, enhancing long-term survival outcomes.
  • Monitoring Treatment Response: Regular ctDNA monitoring helps physicians evaluate how well the body responds to treatment. This allows adjustments to be made quickly to optimize therapy based on real-time data.
  • Early Detection of Recurrence: For individuals in remission, the Signatera test provides a proactive tool for detecting recurrence before symptoms appear or are visible on imaging. Early detection of recurrence can lead to timely interventions, increasing the chances of successful treatment.
