Harbinger Health has raised $140m in a Series B funding round, which will enable the completion of the study of its first blood-based screening product for cancer.
The funding round consists of the company’s founder, Flagship Pioneering, and various global institutional investors, including Pictet, Partners Investment and M&G.
Harbinger will use this financing to complete the Cancer ORigin Epigenetics-Harbinger Health clinical study of its new cancer screening platform, HarbingerHx, involving 10,000 participants.
HarbingerHx uses machine learning and growing datasets for developing insights that increase clinical informativeness.
The company will also expand its teams, develop its two-tier testing model and commence additional trials in high-risk populations using the funding.
Harbinger’s two-tier testing model is being developed to make cancer screening more accessible worldwide.
