The DermTech Melanoma Test is a non-invasive genomic test utilizing DermTech Smart Stickers™ to assess suspicious melanocytic lesions meeting one or more of the ABCDE criteria. It detects genomic markers associated with melanoma to identify high-risk lesions at their earliest stages.1,a
The test provides objective, actionable, easy-to-interpret results that distinguish benign from high-risk lesions.1,4
Recommended use of the DermTech Melanoma Test

Indicated for use on melanocytic lesions having one or more ABCDE criteria (Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, Evolving)
Additional considerations for use may include5:
- Difficult-to-biopsy areas
- Cosmetically sensitive areas
- Patients who are not good biopsy candidates
Detecting melanoma early begins in the genome6

aThe DermTech Melanoma Test is comprised of 2 assays:
- The Pigmented Lesion Assay (PLA) detects 2 RNA biomarkers: LINC00518 and PRAME.
- The TERT Add-On Assay detects DNA TERT promoter mutations and is only run following PLA testing when ordered and if sufficient genomic material is available. The TERT Add-On Assay does not yet have
Medicare coverage.
b87% of patients pay less than $75. Data through August 24, 2021.
