A vision for a more equitable and accessible future of cancer detection.

Americans from rural areas, people of color and those that come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds are less likely to undergo cancer screenings.

Owl Peak Technologies' convenient and easy to use at-home screening options will provide a more patient friendly solution that breaks down barriers to access, leading to more people getting screened for colorectal cancer.

The scope of the problem

Known as the least prevented, though most preventable cancer, colorectal cancer accounts for 10% of all cancers. In the US, it is the second leading cause of cancer deaths. Only 64% of Americans undergo recommended routine screening - well below the CDC’s 80% goal. One in three Americans goes unscreened, contributing to over 53,000 deaths and $14 billion in costs each year.
