Cambridge-based EDX Medical Group announced its distribution agreement with Caris Life Sciences, a leading US-based next-generation AI TechBio and precision medicine company.

Under the agreement, EDX Medical and Caris will work together on a mutually exclusive basis in the United Kingdom (UK) and Nordic countries for a minimum of three years to distribute Caris’ portfolio of advanced and comprehensive molecular profiling services for clinical and research use.

Caris’ molecular profiling, combined with proprietary artificial intelligence, can enable physicians to make more precise and individualized cancer treatment decisions. This profiling approach assesses DNA, RNA, and proteins, revealing a molecular blueprint that identifies treatment options specific to each patient’s cancer. Caris has developed one of the world's largest platforms for cancer analysis, including Whole Exome and Whole Transcriptome Sequencing across over 23,000 genes. By analysing biomarkers found in tumours, Caris helps healthcare providers make informed choices for personalised care.

Caris’ solid tumour and liquid (blood) biopsy molecular profiling services, as well as AI solutions, will be available exclusively via EDX Medical immediately in the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland, with additional regions and products to follow.
