myG-Cancer - Screening for cancer risk

Cancer risk

According to Globocan 2020, the global cancer rate will increase to 19.3 million cases and 10 million cancer deaths.

Vietnam is among the 50 countries in the top 2 of the cancer map:

- Total population 97338583
- Total number of new cases 182563

- Number of people dying from cancer 122690
- Number of common cases in 5 years 353826

The relationship between Gene and Cancer

Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the abnormal growth of cells that divide uncontrollably and have the ability to invade and destroy normal body tissues. Caused by changes to genes that control how cells work, especially how they grow and divide.

Harmful gene variants in certain genes are known to be associated with an increased risk of developing cancer. These genetic variations contribute to about 5 to 10% of the increased risk of cancer (all cancers). Genes associated with many inherited cancer syndromes have been identified: EGFR (small cell lung cancer), KRAS (colorectal cancer)...

Significance of cancer screening

The cancer risk screening test based on Gene decoding and AI artificial intelligence helps to provide early warning, providing solutions to prevent common cancers. High-risk screened subjects will receive health counseling and methods of prevention and quality of life control.

Genetic testing to screen for cancer risk
- Gene sequencing: using SNP array technology to look for specific genetic changes (variants) that have been found to be associated with cancer risk.
- Artificial Intelligence: Calculating Polygenic Risk Score-PRS based on artificial intelligence (Ai) technology on big data typical of Asians and optimized for Vietnamese people
- Risk assessment: Assess the risk of cancer based on PRS and make recommendations in accordance with the current state of the body.

Early detection and treatment of cancer is very important. If detected at an early stage, the 5-year survival rate is up to 89%, if detected at the late stage, the 5-year survival rate is only 21%. Particularly for lung cancer, if detected at an early stage, the 5-year survival rate is 56%, if detected at the late stage, the 5-year survival rate is only 5%. So it's important for everyone to get screened for cancer risk.
