Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer Could Save Your Life

Avantect Pancreatic Cancer Test: A simple, DNA-based blood test could help detect pancreatic cancer in its earliest and most treatable stages — especially if you’re at elevated risk.

Testimonial

Pancreatic Cancer is a Silent Killer.

Pancreatic cancer often goes undetected until it has progressed beyond the point of effective treatment. By the time symptoms appear, options are limited. However, when detected early, survival rates increase by more than tenfold. 

Now There’s a New Option

The Avantect™ Pancreatic Cancer Test, now available through Human Longevity, is a liquid biopsy that detects tumor-derived genomic signals from a routine blood draw. This is a breakthrough for individuals at high risk — offering the possibility of detection at stage 0 or 1. 

Are You High Risk?

You may qualify for testing if you have any of the following: 

  • IPMN (Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm) identified on a prior scan 
  • A family history of pancreatic cancer 
  • A recent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes after age 50 
  • Known genetic predispositions (e.g., BRCA2, PALB2, Lynch syndrome) 

Why Human Longevity?

We combine cutting-edge diagnostics, personalized data, and preventative action to help you live longer — and live better.

Our clinical team uses the latest in genomic science to get ahead of disease, not just react to it. 

Precision Through Epigenomics

The Avantect test uses a novel DNA biomarker, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), to detect early-stage pancreatic cancer through a simple blood draw. This epigenomic signal reflects active tumor biology, enabling accurate, non-invasive detection with 70% sensitivity and 97% specificity.

Earlier Answers,
Better Outcomes

Avantect outperforms traditional markers like CA19-9, detecting cancer earlier and reducing false positives. In clinical trials and real-world cases, it identified pancreatic cancer in high-risk individuals before imaging or symptoms appeared.

Designed for the Cancer That Hides

Unlike generalized multi-cancer tests, Avantect is purpose-built for pancreatic cancer—one of the most lethal and under-screened cancers. Backed by FDA Breakthrough Designation and ongoing studies, it’s now part of Human Longevity’s advanced detection platform.

What is the Avantect Pancreatic Cancer Test?

The Avantect® test is a groundbreaking blood test that detects early signs of pancreatic cancer by analyzing specific epigenomic markers (5hmC) in cell-free DNA. It offers a non-invasive way to identify cancer at its earliest, most treatable stage.

Who should consider this test?

The test is designed for individuals at higher risk of pancreatic cancer—this includes people over 50 with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, those with a family history of pancreatic cancer, or individuals with genetic predispositions (such as BRCA2 mutations).

How accurate is the test?

In clinical studies, the Avantect test demonstrated 68.3% sensitivity and 96.9% specificity for detecting early-stage pancreatic cancer.¹ This makes it one of the most advanced tools available for early detection.

How is this different from other cancer screening tests?

Unlike standard screenings, the Avantect test focuses specifically on pancreatic cancer and uses cutting-edge epigenomic analysis to catch subtle DNA changes. When combined with Human Longevity’s whole genome sequencing and advanced MRI, it forms part of a multimodal approach—providing the most comprehensive early detection strategy available.

What is included in Human Longevity’s multimodal cancer screening?

Our integrated approach includes:

  • Whole genome sequencing to identify inherited cancer risks

  • Advanced whole-body MRI with high-resolution pancreatic imaging

  • Avantect’s cell-free DNA blood test for early detection of pancreatic cancer

Is this test available to everyone?

Yes, the Avantect Pancreatic Cancer Test is available to everyone.
