Exact Sciences Corp. (NASDAQ:EXAS), a leading provider of cancer screening and diagnostic tests, today announced that the first patient has joined its Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) Falcon Registry Real-World Evidence (RWE) study at Baylor Scott & White, the primary study site and largest not-for-profit health system in Texas. The multi-site study will enroll up to 25,000 patients, evaluating the clinical performance, patient and provider experience, and psychological impact of MCED testing over a five-year period. Endeavor Health, a Chicago-area health system serving more than 1.4 million patients, will start enrolling patients this fall. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently authorized an investigational device exemption (IDE) for the Exact Sciences MCED test, allowing its use in the Falcon Registry. This study will provide valuable insight to further inform the development and commercialization of the company's future MCED test and support discussions with regulatory agencies, payers, and guideline bodies.
