On August 29, 2025, Foresight Diagnostics, a privately held cancer diagnostics company and CLIA-registered laboratory, announced that it has entered into a limited licensing agreement with Roche Molecular Systems and Roche Sequencing Systems (together, Roche) involving Foresight\u2019s patented PhasED-Seq\u2122 technology. The agreement resolves litigation between the parties, with all claims against Foresight, its founders, and Stanford University dismissed with prejudice. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati advised Foresight on the settlement and licensing agreement.<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, Foresight granted Roche a limited, royalty-bearing, non-exclusive sublicense under certain patents for the use of PhasED-Seq for performing services and commercializing in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits for Non-Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma (NHL). The patents are owned by Stanford University, and Foresight holds the exclusive license for all uses and geographies.<\/p>\n
