First blood-based cancer detection test in Australia, revolutionising early cancer screening 

Rhythm’s ColoSTAT® has the potential to be a ground-breaking solution to early cancer screening. It will be the first blood-based detection method for colorectal cancer in Australia which is a significant departure from traditional faecal testing, and it will provide a scientifically rigorous approach to early cancer detection. 

ColoSTAT® has huge transformative impact potential as it will simplify the cancer screening process, reduce unnecessary invasive procedures, provide a more accessible screening method, and potentially catch cancer at earlier, more treatable stages. 

The clinical and economic benefits include: 

  • Reduced false positives in current screening methods 
  • Triage of patients more effectively for further investigation 
  • Potentially decrease healthcare system burden 
  • Improve patient outcomes through early detection
