About Canos
Canos is bringing a human-grade liquid biopsy platform for dogs, starting with a single blood draw. We sequence cell-free DNA to perform multi-modal analysis of fragmentation, copy number variation, native methylation (5mC and 5hmC) and more to detect cancer signals. Owners bank a healthy baseline for their dog and track changes every year. Dogs already diagnosed get personalized monitoring through treatment. We partner with mobile vets and vet clinics to serve SF and NYC. Our mission is to make pet cancer curable through early detection and monitoring.
