Guardant Health reported strong Q1 2025 financial results, with total revenue reaching $203.5 million, marking a 21% year-over-year growth. The company raised its 2025 revenue guidance to $880-890 million, projecting 19-20% growth.
Key performance highlights include:
- Oncology revenue grew 20% to $150.6 million, with test volume up 25%
- Screening revenue reached $5.7 million from 9,000 Shield tests
- Biopharma & Data revenue increased 21% to $45.4 million
Notable achievements include receiving ADLT status from CMS for Shield, increasing Medicare pricing to $1,495, and securing first Shield payor coverage from VA Community Care Network. The company launched an upgraded Guardant360 Tissue test and announced a collaboration with Pfizer. Despite progress, net loss was $95.2 million, improving from $115.0 million in the previous year.
Guardant Health has presented promising data for its Shield Multi-Cancer Detection (MCD) test, demonstrating strong performance across 10 cancer types. The blood-based test achieved 98.5% specificity and 60% overall sensitivity, with notably higher sensitivity of 74% for six aggressive cancers including esophageal-gastric, hepatocellular, lung, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers.
Key findings from the blinded case-control study of 778 individuals include:
- 89% accuracy in cancer signal origin prediction
- Sensitivity ranging from 96% (esophageal-gastric) to 21% (prostate)
- Strong performance in detecting aggressive cancers through a simple blood draw
The test's impressive results have led to its selection by the National Cancer Institute for inclusion in their upcoming Vanguard Study. This development represents a significant step forward in early cancer detection technology, potentially offering a new screening option for earlier diagnosis when treatment is more effective.
Guardant Health (Nasdaq: GH) has launched Guardant360 Tissue, a groundbreaking molecular profiling test for tumor tissue that combines comprehensive multiomics analysis. The test analyzes DNA, RNA, AI-powered PD-L1, and exome-wide methylation data to provide a more complete cancer profile.
Powered by the Guardant Infinity smart liquid biopsy platform, the test examines 742 DNA genes and fusions in 367 RNA genes, while requiring 92% less tissue surface area than industry standards. This efficiency allows testing with 40% fewer slides, enabling more patients to qualify for testing compared to conventional methods where over 50% of samples typically fail surface area requirements.
The advanced test offers enhanced insights for PARP-inhibitors and immunotherapies, while enabling better tumor classification and subtyping. Results are available within two weeks, and the test is covered by Medicare for eligible patients.
