Selection based on Natera's Signatera™ test and its impact on cancer care
Natera, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRA), a global leader in cell-free DNA and precision medicine, today announced that it has been named to Fast Company's 2025 Next Big Things in Tech list. Honored for its Signatera personalized molecular residual disease (MRD) test, Natera was one of five companies recognized in the health and medicine category.
This annual program by Fast Company highlights innovative technologies that have the potential to impact their respective industries. Developed by established companies, startups, or research teams, these technologies are featured for their potential to revolutionize the lives of consumers, businesses, and society overall.
Custom-built for each individual, Signatera is a blood test that uses circulating tumor DNA to detect and quantify cancer left in the body to identify recurrence earlier than standard of care tools and help optimize treatment decisions. Signatera has been clinically validated across multiple cancer types and indications, with published evidence in more than 140 peer-reviewed papers. Today, it is ordered by more than 50% of U.S. oncologists.
"As one of the most important tools to fight cancer today, Signatera is transforming how we detect, monitor, and ultimately treat the disease," said Steve Chapman, chief executive officer of Natera. "This recognition from Fast Company underscores the impact of molecular residual disease testing, as well as the promise of further innovation still ahead for patients worldwide. Congratulations to everyone at Natera for this honor."
"Next Big Things in Tech is both a snapshot of the most interesting tech of the moment and a crystal ball that predicts the next several years," says Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. "We're excited to share this list with our readers, and we congratulate the winners for their vision and innovation."
