RGCC ChemoSNiP

Discover the cutting-edge capabilities of RGCC ChemoSNiP

Genetic code is inherited and it’s unique. Within our genes, different variations affect how we react to certain drugs and treatments for diseases, including cancer. The RGCC ChemoSNiP test provides information about Single Nucleotide Polymorphism that can affect how humans develop cancer or respond to anti-cancer drugs and treatments.

How it works?

RGCC ChemoSNiP is an advanced and innovative test that uses pharmacokinetics technology to assess your body’s response to specific anti-cancer drugs. The test reveals how your body metabolizes and reacts to cancer drugs, enabling clinicians to tailor therapies for optimal outcomes. It equips you with personalized information to ensure the most effective and targeted treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. 

How it is done?

DNA is extracted from a blood sample and is used as a template in PCR reactions. Molecular-based assays and spectrophotometer analysis are used to verify SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) or variations.

RGCC ChemoSNIP test studies single nucleotide polymorphisms in a patient’s genes that are involved in breaking down cytostatic (anti-cancer) or targeted drugs that are used to treat cancer therapy.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) denote variations within the DNA sequence. These SNPs are pivotal as they determine how inherited genetic differences impact an individual's response to drugs.

The test employs pharmacokinetics to meticulously examine how the body metabolizes anti-cancer drugs, providing crucial insights into drug efficacy.

Why choose RGCC ChemoSNiP?

Pharmacokinetics examines how drugs are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted within the body over time.  

It plays a critical role in understanding how anti-cancer drugs interact with the body and provides invaluable insights into the pharmacological behavior of anti-cancer drugs, guiding personalized treatment strategies tailored to individual patient needs and optimizing therapeutic outcomes in cancer therapy. 

RGCC ChemoSNiP test provides a personalized analysis of a patient's DNA providing information on the most effective combination of drugs and treatments available to that patient

Having this type of personalized information available even before your treatment begins can be crucial to the success of your cancer treatment journey.

The test provides clinicians with crucial information about the ability of every individual to break down and trigger a treatment most effectively.

Which cancers are tested?

The ChemoSNiP test evaluates how your body responds to the specific anti-cancer drug by analyzing SNPs. The test answers which chemotherapeutic drug works best for your cancer and which doesn’t.

The test applies to all types of cancers and not just limited to the following.

Useful information

We recommend ChemoSNiP before starting chemotherapy as it will help the clinician to under whether the patient is a rapid metaboliser, normal metaboliser, or poor metaboliser.  

When used together with data from chemosensitivity testing, ChemoSNiP helps to narrow the selection to the most effective and least toxic therapeutic agent.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Absolutely, tests can be performed while undergoing treatment to assess the effectiveness of the treatment against cancer.

    RGCC Metastat is an effective test for identifying secondary tumors development and its potential location. It helps detect secondary tumors through analyzing Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in the bloodstream. The test provides valuable insights into disease progression and metastasis.

    Your blood sample undergoes processing in cutting-edge laboratories by scientists and technicians to deliver insights into your cancer cells.

    Tests personalize treatment regimens by providing crucial information on drugs and therapies tailored to effectively target cancer cells.

    Yes, all RGCC tests utilize blood samples. However, certain cancers, like glioblastoma and brain tumors, may require additional samples such as CSF or tissue. Otherwise, a peripheral blood sample alone is enough.

    Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that have detached from the primary tumor and circulate in the bloodstream. Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) are a subpopulation of CTCs and both serve as biomarkers for cancer.

    Yes, tests like aCGH can pinpoint the origin of an unknown primary tumor by analyzing genetic abnormalities present in tumor cells.

    Tests like ChemoSNiP and CAMBISeq provide information on the body’s response to the drugs and sensitivity to immunotherapy.
