About ColoSTAT®
Colorectal cancer (CRC), also referred to as bowel cancer, is the second leading cause of cancer deaths globally. If diagnosed early, colorectal cancer is curable.
The ColoSTAT® Test-Kit is Rhythm Bioscience’s simple blood test for the detection of CRC. It measures five specific protein biomarkers that indicate the likelihood presence of CRC. The test can be used as an alternative for individuals who are unable or unwilling to participate in current screening programs.
The ColoSTAT® Test-Kit is based on research from Australia’s CSIRO and is patent protected internationally. It has the potential to play a key role in reducing the mortality rate and healthcare costs associated with colorectal cancer.
