Why choose NavDx®
NavDx is the first and only clinically validated circulating tumor-tissue–modified HPV (TTMV®) DNA blood test that aids in the detection of HPV-driven cancers.1
This highly accurate blood test uncovers the presence of HPV+ head and neck cancer across the care continuum by quantifying circulating fragments of TTMV HPV DNA that are shed by tumor cells into the blood.2
NavDx can reliably confirm the HPV genotype and establish baseline TTMV HPV DNA level pretreatment, assess treatment response, identify molecular residual disease post treatment, and detect recurrence significantly earlier than it would present clinically.1
-
- NavDx has a 100% negative predictive value (NPV) and a 94% positive predictive value (PPV) for active HPV-driven malignancy1
-
- NavDx identifies the presence of molecular residual disease post treatment so physicians can prioritize appropriate patients for adjuvant or follow-on treatment1
-
- NavDx can accurately detect recurrence a median of 4 months earlier than imaging and biopsy1
NavDx is an innovative and accessible blood test that enables you to optimize HPV-driven cancer care and reassure patients that their disease is being effectively monitored.1

Why TTMV® matters
NavDx® uses proprietary technology to quantify fragments of circulating tumor-tissue–modified HPV (TTMV) DNA, a unique HPV-driven cancer biomarker that tumor cells shed into the blood. This highly accurate blood test reliably uncovers the presence of HPV+ head and neck cancer across the care continuum by distinguishing TTMV HPV DNA from non-cancerous sources of HPV DNA.1-2
NavDx helps inform clinical decisions by:
- Confirming the tumor HPV genotype1
- Assessing current treatment response2
- Identifying molecular residual disease post treatment2
- Detecting recurrence earlier than it would appear on imaging scans2
This innovative and accessible blood test enables you to optimize HPV-driven cancer care and reassure your patients that their disease is being effectively monitored.2
