Compared to original Cologuard, Cologuard Plus has new biomarkers for (modestly) improved sensitivity/specificity and enhanced stabilizers to allow patients more time to return their samples to EXAS’ lab for analysis. One glitch with original Cologuard has been a relatively high rate of invalid test results due to the patients’ not returning their samples quickly enough.

*f/k/a Cologuard 2.0.
