Early Detection, Higher Chance of Cure
Detecting cancer in its early stage increases the survival rate to **90–95%**. However, over 70% of patients are diagnosed in later stages, making treatment more difficult and resulting in a high financial burden for the patient and their family. Data from the WHO estimates that cancer mortality rates will increase by 45% in 2027 (BE 2573).
Therefore, finding cancer early allows for quicker treatment and a higher survival rate, as well as helping to reduce the burden of medical costs.
Screening with the SPOT-MAS Method
The technology for Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) using the **SPOT-MAS** method screens for cancer by detecting cancer cell DNA released into the bloodstream (**Circulating Tumor DNA: ctDNA**) using **Next-Generation Sequencing** technology. This allows for the simultaneous detection of multiple cancer types from the initial stage in asymptomatic individuals with just a single blood draw. Results are available within 30 working days.
Detects 10 Types of Early-Stage Cancer in a Single Test (10 Cancer Screening, SPOT-MAS)
- Liver Cancer
- Lung Cancer
- Breast Cancer
- Colorectal Cancer
- Stomach Cancer
- Ovarian Cancer
- Pancreatic Cancer
- Esophageal Cancer
- Uterine Cancer
- Bile Duct Cancer
Advantages
- It is an easy, fast, and minimally invasive method, as it requires only a single blood draw to screen for multiple types of cancer.
- It is non-invasive and does not require procedures like surgery to obtain a tissue biopsy.
- It is accurate, with a specificity of 95.9% and a sensitivity of 73.9%*.
Who should get tested?
- Individuals aged 40 and over, as this is an age group with an increased risk for various cancers and is the age recommended by the WHO for cancer screening.
- Regular smokers or drinkers of alcohol.
- Those living in areas with high levels of PM2.5 pollution.
- Individuals with a family history of cancer, who may have a risk of genetic cancer.
- Individuals aged 18 and over who wish to screen for cancer early.
Additionally, you should undergo regular health check-ups, such as screenings for breast and cervical cancer, as well as annual health check-ups tailored to your age and individual risk factors. If abnormalities are detected in the early stages, treatment can be started promptly.
