Real Time PCR

CE-IVD Certificate no.：No.MDD-SZ-XW-160321 

Individualized targeted therapy: Using new methods of molecular analysis, to help doctors andpatients choose the most effective drugs, and to better control the disease progression according to the patient's genetic characteristics, thus to develop a suitable individualized therapy.

EGFR-TKI Drugs and EGFR Gene

EGFR is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase, which could be activated by anti-phosphorylationupon ligand binding, the activation of EGFR contributes to cancer cell proliferation and relevant signal transductin significantly.The status of EGFR gene mutation is the most important factor forpredicting EGFR-TKI efficacy, which is the prerequisite for determining whether the EGFR-TKI therapy is suitabel for the specific patients.

NCCN clinical practice guidelines in oncology,Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Version 4.2016) recommends that pathological assessment of patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma requires detection of mutations in EGFR, KRAS and ALK genes to guide TKI drug therapy. The College of American Pathologists (CAP), the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) have released Guideline of Lung Cancer Biomarker detection 2013, which clearly pointed out that all patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma should be detected for the mutation status of EGFR and ALK genes, thus to be the judgment basis to determine whether specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors treatment can be applied to patients.
