The company also has a Therapeutics segment that focuses on leveraging genetic data to develop new treatments. Notably, 23andMe presented positive Phase 2 safety and efficacy data from their anti-CD200R1 antibody, 23ME-00610, at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.

Hackers specifically targeted the genetic information of Jewish and Chinese customers, selling the data on the dark web. This incident has led to a class-action lawsuit and ongoing investigations.
In research, 23andMe has also made significant strides. For example, the company conducted the world's largest study on the LRRK2 G2019S variant linked to Parkinson’s disease, with support from The Michael J. Fox Foundation. Findings from this study revealed new insights into the variant's impact and its prevalence in various populations, including unexpected hotspots in Latin Caribbean communities.
23andMe continues to expand its offerings, providing reports that calculate genetic likelihood for conditions like bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression for its 23andMe+ Premium members.
