"We are pleased to deliver another strong quarter across both the MRD and Immune Medicine businesses," said Chad Robins, chief executive officer and co-founder of Adaptive Biotechnologies. "I am encouraged by the MRD business momentum as more clinical data and reimbursement decisions continue to drive clonoSEQ adoption. In parallel, data emerging from our immune medicine platform has led to growing interest from pharma partners that will drive revenue and may accelerate diagnostic use cases and potential drug discovery opportunities."
