The capital raised so far has now reached a total of $108m.

Adela will use the proceeds from the financing to advance its technology platform and commercialise its first product for MRD monitoring.

The company’s MRD monitoring product leverages a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform that acquires genomic information for maximising test performance and enhancing treatment decisions.

The corporation will also use the funding to continue the development of its multi-cancer early-detection product, which leverages the same platform.
