Guardant Health has filed a lawsuit accusing competitor Natera of poaching employees and stealing trade secrets. The lawsuit alleges that Natera aggressively recruited bioinformatics scientists from Guardant to advance its position in the early cancer test industry.
This legal action highlights the intense competition within the liquid biopsy market and Guardant's efforts to protect its proprietary technology and human capital. The outcome of such a dispute could have implications for both companies' operational strategies and market standing.
The allegations suggest Natera sought to 'jumpstart its lagging position' by targeting Guardant's specialized talent. Guardant Health is actively defending its intellectual property and competitive advantage through legal channels.
