The Good Fight Means Never Giving Up
It means working diligently to combat obstacles and seek answers. Not stopping until you’ve done all you could do. It’s partnering with the scientific community as they research the beast we call cancer, with the ultimate goal to eradicate it, or at the very least, prolong the lives of those diagnosed.
This is no easy feat. At Twist, we recognize we are only one part of the very large puzzle, but we know that with our exceptional tools for Drug Discovery and therapeutics development we can help fight cancer at every step along the way from basic research to the clinic.

Next Generation Sequencing
Advances in Next-generation sequencing (NGS) are improving approaches to develop rapid, accurate, detection, treatment, and routine monitoring of cancer. The use of NGS for developing new solutions for applications such as the detection and monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD), methylation or exome profiling for clinical oncology research and liquid biopsy based approaches.

Clinical Research
The development of immunotherapeutics has the potential to treat a wide variety of conditions, from autoimmune disease to cancer. However, the discovery of potential antibody therapeutics against key receptor proteins remains a major challenge for the traditional immunization approaches currently available on the market. Twist Biopharma, an arm of Twist Bioscience, was built to overcome this bottleneck by leveraging Twist Bioscience’s world-leading oligonucleotide synthesis platform to build high-quality antibody discovery libraries for better therapeutic discovery and development for:
• Target Identification
• Identifying robust biomarkers for new drug development
• The ability to define a target patient population, based on these biomarkers
• Developing a well-tolerated effective drug with limited off-target toxicities
• Developing drugs fast and cost-effectively
