DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 9, 2026--
Naveris, Inc., the leader in precision oncology diagnostics for viral-driven cancers, today announced that it will be highlighting new data supporting the use of blood-based ctDNA tests to improve post-treatment surveillance protocols in both head-and-neck and anal cancers at the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, to be held January 12-15, 2026, in San Francisco, CA.
Recent data published in Cancers reinforces the value of the Naveris Tumor Tissue Modified Viral (TTMV ® ) HPV DNA technology in the surveillance of anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC). The Company’s flagship NavDx ® test demonstrated high per-test positive predictive value (PPV) of 98% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 95% for recurrence detection in the surveillance setting. Additionally, NavDx helped resolve 92% of clinically indeterminate findings (CIFs). i These results reinforce the clinical utility of NavDx testing as part of a comprehensive surveillance protocol and align with recently expanded Medicare coverage for the use of NavDx in ASCC molecular residual disease (MRD) testing.
Naveris will also highlight the recent clinical consensus recommendations issued by the California Head & Neck Consortium, which reached “strong consensus” recommendation for the serial use of ctHPVDNA testing in surveillance of head and neck cancer to identify recurrence after treatment and to improve time to detection of recurrence compared to conventional surveillance tools. ii
“We are pleased to share significant business updates at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference including our recently expanded Medicare coverage for NavDx in anal cancer MRD, new clinical data that reinforces the clinical utility of NavDx in anal cancer surveillance, and the impactful clinical consensus statement that highlights the utility of ctHPVDNA in head and neck cancer surveillance,” commented James McNally, Chief Executive Officer of Naveris.
Naveris management will present these updates on Wednesday, January 14, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. PT at the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.
