“2025 was a breakout year for Guardant, with total revenue growth accelerating to 33% year-over-year,” said Helmy Eltoukhy, co-founder and co-CEO. “We saw exceptional volume growth in Oncology over the last year, primarily driven by pioneering innovation from our Smart Platform and best-in-class commercial execution.

“We are incredibly proud of Shield’s strong momentum as we continue to strengthen our leadership in the blood-based colorectal cancer screening market, with Shield positioned as one of the most successful diagnostic launches to date,” said AmirAli Talasaz, co-founder and co-CEO. “Since FDA approval, nearly 100,000 patients have been screened with Shield. We have now expanded Shield to include multi-cancer detection findings, further enhancing the clinical value of the platform for both patients and physicians. Together, these milestones will further advance the fight against cancer in 2026 and beyond.”
