The first in the country!3 hours of precision diagnosis of dysfunction cancer

A few days ago, Hangzhou Kang Gang Gene Co., Ltd. was approved by the first certificate of the origin of the Chinese tumor tissue origin, becoming the first and the world's second -approved related product. This breakthrough product that lasted for 7 years includes tumor tissue origin gene detection kits and tumor tissue origin gene analysis software. Through "genetic testing+artificial intelligence" technology, patients with cancer can be diagnosed as soon as 3 hours.
According to reports, there are more than 4 million new tumor patients in my country each year, and most of the patients have metastasized when they find it. Accurate diagnosis of tumors is undoubtedly the first step in precision treatment.
How to take this key step? At present, tissue pathological diagnosis is an internationally recognized "gold standard" for tumor diagnosis. However, in our country, there are only more than 10,000 professional pathologists, and most of them are concentrated in large central cities, and the supply and demand are seriously insufficient. What's even more fatal is that many patients do not know which cancer they are. The precise and efficient tumor gene traceability technology has only been approved by a company in the world, with a single price of more than 4,000 US dollars. Some patients have to send the samples abroad for detection.
In 2014, with the original intention of empowering pathologists and benefiting cancer patients, Xu Qinghua, who worked at the laboratory of the Cancer Hospital, Affiliated to Fudan University, resolutely returned to his hometown of Hangzhou to start a business. It is hoped that the background of team oncology, biological information, and molecular biology will be developed to develop the Chinese people's own tumor gene traceability technology and products.
Seven years of persistence, eventually become a wish. With the emergence of new products with gangs, now, patients only need to provide a small amount of tumor tissue to detect the genetic information of tumor through the box. Input the detection results input analysis software, compare with the nearly 10,000 tumor samples stored in the database. It only takes 3 hours to determine the type and origin of the cancer. In the past, it took weeks or even months to wait in line to wait for the pathological reports of large hospitals.
The premise of fast and precise diagnosis is massive data accumulation and many years of clinical research. "These tumor characteristic genes are like the navigation satellites in the Beidou system that can trace the origin of the tumor, find out the hiding place of the initial lesion, reveal the most basic characteristics of the disease for doctors, and achieve targeted accurate precision. "According to Xu Qinghua, reagent testing covers common cancer such as lung cancer, bowel cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and almost includes 90%of new cancer cases of cancer per year in my country.
It is reported that the help gene has obtained the "admission ticket" of the European market in March this year. With the certification of my country's official institutions and the recommendation of the national tumor clinical guidelines, testing products will be promoted on a large scale, and high -level pathological diagnosis technologies will be quickly applied to hospitals at all levels to truly benefit millions of cancer patients.
