Veracyte expands Decipher Prostate test availability

Veracyte (VCYT) announced the launch of its Decipher Prostate Metastatic Genomic Classifier for use in patients whose prostate cancer has spread beyond the primary tumor. The Decipher Prostate test, already widely used for patients with localized disease, is now the only gene expression test available and covered by Medicare to inform treatment decisions for patients across the full continuum of prostate cancer risk. Veracyte has begun making the Decipher Prostate Metastatic test available to select clinical sites through an early access program and will begin taking orders for the test more broadly in June.
