New Data from the ACROBAT Study Shows AlloHeme Detects Cancer Relapse with Clinically Meaningful Lead Time

CareDx, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNA) – The Transplant Company™ – a leading precision medicine company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of clinically differentiated, high-value healthcare solutions for transplant patients and caregivers – today announced new AlloHeme data presented at the 2025 Tandem Meetings, Transplantation & Cellular Therapy Meetings of ASTCT™ and CIBMTR^®, heldFebruary 12-15, 2025 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

In an oral presentation, a one-year interim analysis of the ACROBAT prospective, multi-center study showed that AlloHeme™ is an accurate and sensitive test for monitoring relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS). By measuring small changes in mixed chimerism, AlloHeme demonstrated excellent performance characteristics with a hazard ratio (HR) of 40.5 (p<0.001) for relapse, and a clinically meaningful median lead time to relapse of 36 days. The analysis included one-year interim follow-up data from a cohort of 229 patients with AML and MDS from 11 stem cell transplant centers across the U.S.

“We are extremely pleased with the results of the ACROBAT study which demonstrates that AlloHeme is highly accurate in predicting risk of relapse in patients who have undergone a hematopoietic cell transplant,” said Dr. Monzr M. Al Malki, Associate Professor, and Director of Unrelated Donor Bone Marrow Transplant Program at City of Hope National Medical Center. “This study gets us one step closer to having a highly reliable molecular biomarker that enables us to assess the status of the stem cell engraftment and predict risk of relapse.”

CareDx's AlloHeme is an NGS-based test that has been shown to be more sensitive than the current standard of care methods for monitoring engraftment and relapse post-allogeneic hemopoietic stem cell transplantation for hematologic malignancies.

“The interim results of the ACROBAT study build upon our growth strategy to expand into hematology oncology. With AlloHeme, we can detect relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation prior to conventional methods, giving clinicians the significant lead time they need to intervene sooner,” said Marica Grskovic, PhD, CareDx Chief Strategy Officer. “We are very pleased with these results demonstrating the high sensitivity of the AlloHeme assay and its selection for an oral presentation at the Tandem Meetings given the significant impact it may have on patient outcomes through earlier detection of malignancy recurrence.”
