Colorectal cancer rates (CRC) for adults under 50 have surged 50% since the 1990s. 62% of young-onset CRC survivors have no family history, and 71% of young-onset cases are diagnosed at Stage III or IV. Colorectal cancer has a greater than 90% survival rate when caught early. And yet, only 20% of 45 to 49-year-olds are getting screened. Learn and share: https://bit.ly/3YAqz3Z Geneoscopy's FDA-approved ColoSense test demonstrated 100% sensitivity for CRC and 44% sensitivity for advanced adenomas, considered precursors to the disease in average-risk individuals, ages 45-49.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second deadliest cancer in the U.S. However, millions of eligible Americans do not get screened due to a lack of access to or avoidance of invasive screening options like colonoscopies. The rates of CRC incidence among younger populations under 50 years old is also on the rise. ColoSense, Geneoscopy's FDA-approved at home screening test indicated for adults, ages 45 and over, who are at a typical risk for developing CRC, uses an innovative and proprietary RNA-based platform to screen for CRC and advanced adenomas.
