BCAL Diagnostics Limited (ASX: BDX), an Australian healthcare company pioneering diagnostics for early detection of cancer, is accelerating the commercial roll out of Avantect Pancreatic and Ovarian blood tests, with tests now available through selected Sonic Healthcare pathology collection centres in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, and nationally through a new agreement with Healius Pathology Network.

National roll out follows the initial launch of the Avantect tests in January 2026 through Sydney Breast Clinic.

Avantect is a cell-free DNA-based blood test designed to support the early detection of pancreatic and ovarian cancers in patients identified as being at elevated risk. The latest generation of the Avantect test incorporates advances in genomic and epigenomic analysis combined with machine learning to provide valuable additional information for doctors and patients.

BCAL CEO Shane Ryan said,We are incredibly excited to make Avantect products available nationally through our collaboration with Sonic and Healius, two of Australia’s leading pathology providers, accelerating the commercial rollout of these important tests. Clinicians can now begin ordering the tests for their patients using an established national collection network.

We know that early detection improves clinical outcomes by identifying cancers at a stage where treatment options can be more effective.

This initiative builds on our existing collaboration with Sonic Healthcare, supporting broader patient access to our growing portfolio of blood-based cancer diagnostics, including BREASTEST plus .”
