It's no secret that at OncoSwab, we're huge fans of DNA. So much information is stored in such tiny molecules. The pace at which technology is advancing allows us to make the most out of our own DNA, which is astonishing. At OncoSwab, our mission is to leverage state-of-the-art technology to make accurate predictions of lung cancer risk by identifying the presence of malignant DNA. What's even more interesting is that we believe in the power of combining different biomarkers that complement DNA to provide a broader picture, achievable only through a multi-omics approach. But, why is today National DNA Day? Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/dzxVjnw #nationaldnaday #lungcancer #lungcancerdetection #cancerscreening

On this European Week Against Cancer we side with all involved in this battle by offering our revolutionary OncoNext, a non-invasive, cost effective and highly sensitive method of detection and diagnosis by isolating and detecting cfDNA fragments, including circulating tumour fragments (ctDNA), from the plasma of patients diagnosed with cancer or from individuals who may have it. By analyzing cell-free DNA isolated from a patient's blood, we can identify clinically relevant genomic alterations in ctDNA and match these alterations to targeted therapies and clinical trials! Click on the following link https://shorturl.at/3Z3Kp to learn more about what OncoNext can do for your patients! #ewac #preventivemedicine #cancerdiagnosis #cancertreatment #lifesciences

In the face of a rising global cancer crisis, the accurate profiling of a cancer's genetic makeup is a critical tool in its diagnosis and treatment. We are collaborating with partners across Europe on a new project, GenomeMET, to develop a robust metrological (measurement) infrastructure to ensure accuracy and comparability of genomic profiling across European Healthcare Systems. GenomeMET will support earlier and more accurate cancer diagnostics, alongside tailored treatment strategies. Find out more about the project here-https://okt.to/eKbiMY #genomicprofiling #PrecisionMedicine #cancerdiagnostics

Neurogeneticist. Director at Center for Applied and Translational Genomics(CATG), Associate Professor, MBRU, Dubai Health. Associate Investigator, TCAG, SicKids, Toronto,Canada. Founder at GenomeArc Inc., Toronto, Canada
💫 Liquid biopsy is an intriguing development in genomic technology. The field struggles with sensitivity and specificity in establishing its diagnostic and therapeutic effectiveness across different cancer types. One of the primary hurdles is the lack of interpretive algorithms needed to extract life-saving insights from ctDNA detected variants. GenomeArc's Spectra have developed interesting algorithms, offering potential improvements in predictive diagnosis, pharmacogenomics, and cellular progression analysis. Excited to witness future breakthroughs and the growing impact of liquid biopsy in the fight against cancer, potentially even before it manifests. 💫 GenomeArc Horizon Spectra: https://lnkd.in/dzq25Q74 #liquidbiopsy #cancer #genomics

Ultrasensitivity - what is it? When we describe our technology as ultrasensitive, it indicates our capability to detect extremely small amounts of cancer-related material, particularly circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). To illustrate, think about how hard it is to find one tiny grain of sand on a huge beach. Our technology works like a precise magnet, carefully picking out these tiny bits from a massive amount of genetic information. And why is this ultrasensitivity so important? Well, it enables: 1️⃣ Identifying Cancer Relapse: Catching cancer's return at the earliest stage. 2️⃣ Monitoring Minimal Residual Disease (MRD): Detecting small amounts of remaining cancer cells post-treatment. 3️⃣ Tracking Treatment Response: Assessing therapy effectiveness by detecting changes in ctDNA levels. #cancer #cancermonitoring #ctDNA

If you understand cancer as a network of molecular signaling pathways which seeks adaptation to treatments by switching to alternative pathways, does that mean that if you attack as many of the network nodes as possible with a combination of therapies, the cancer will collapse? This is the thesis of Michael Castro, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Cellworks. He is uniquely qualified as a clinician who is also an expert in molecular pathology to look at molecular pathways and personalize treatments for cancer patients. Cellworks provides a report on the signaling pathways and the convergence of particular biochemical enzymes which he uses to understand master regulators, network nodes, DNA repair, and transcriptional (RNA) drivers. Identifying the dysregulated proteins that contribute to your cancer is crucial for developing personalized treatment plans. For more, please see our conversation with Dr. Castro here https://lnkd.in/efBmjwxe

Next on our list of remarkable technologies - Meet JaxBio, a diagnostic startup founded from the technology of Prof. Yuval Ebenstein of Tel Aviv University. JaxBio are developing a proprietary liquid biopsy-based test to diagnose cancer biomarkers starting with lung cancer and blood cancer. At the heart of the technology is an ultra-sensitive method for identifying genetic and epigenetic changes in cell-free DNA, crucial for cancer detection and monitoring. The process involves extracting cell-free DNA from blood samples, labeling it with a unique process, and then analyzing it on a specialized chip. This chip reveals distinct pixel patterns that accurately identify the type and stage of cancer, offering a swift and sensitive diagnostic tool. Currently, JaxBio's efforts are centered on developing diagnostic tests for lung cancer and hematological malignancies, bolstered by ongoing research studies. The company's innovative approach has been recognized with an €8.5 million grant from the EU Horizon Europe program, aiding the development of a novel array-based platform for diagnosing hematological malignancies.
