Exosome Diagnostics today announced an expansion of its strategic collaboration with QIAGEN to develop non-invasive molecular diagnostics for use in detecting and monitoring actionable genetic mutations in lung cancer patients. In contrast with current molecular diagnostics requiring tissue biopsy, the focus will be to enable detection of well-understood cancer biomarkers in plasma, reducing both cost and patient risk. Financial terms of the collaboration were not disclosed.
