Scientists have successfully tested a common blood test method that can detect eight types of cancer early. The name of this test is cancerous.
In this, science went ahead one step in the treatment of cancer. Because, if cancer is found in the early stage, treatment is very much in the treatment. Five of those eight types of cancer have not been identified before. One of these is pancreatic cancer. Earlier, its symptoms are not understood. These cancers are very late. Four of the five people who have been diagnosed with this cancer have died due to late detection.
A group of scientists from the Johns Hopkins University of the United States succeeded in testing a common method before identifying eight types of cancer. The success rate is 70 percent. UK scientists referred to it as a "very interesting stimulus". The goal of the scientists is to save lives by identifying before and after cancer every year.
Tumors spread a small sample of modified DNA and proteins that are transmitted in the bloodstream. In this test, diagnosis can be done by identifying 16 modified genes and eight types of proteins.
Cancer treatments with about one to five patients with ovaries, liver, stomach, pancreatic, angina, colon, lung and breast cancer - were run, whose cancer did not spread to other tissues. It has been observed that 70% of cases are successful in this test.
"The identification before cancer is very important," said Christian Tomasacey of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. I think this method will have a huge effect in curbing the death rate of cancer. "
As soon as the cancer is detected, the greater the chance of healing for treatment. Five of the eight types of cancer have no screening method before. Pancreatic cancer has so few symptoms that it is too late to detect. Four of the five patients with cancer have died in the year of identification.
Those who have not been diagnosed with cancer from now on, their cancer test will be done. This will be the test of the main effects of cancer.
Other screening methods such as breast cancer are expected to act as a cancerous supplement for colonoscopy in mammograms and colon cancer. Thomas said, 'Our goal is to test this blood once a year.'
Science magazine's report on cancer test said that it is fancy because both of this DNA and proteins changed in the examination were found.
London's Institute of Cancer Research Center for Evolution and Cancer Leader and Royal Mercedes NHS Foundation Trust's Oncologist Consultant Gart Etrade said, "It is a great possibility. I am very excited. A blood test will detect cancer. To identify cancer, we are on the verge of launching this blood test.
