妙佑医疗国际与Personalis Inc.合作扩大癌症基因组检测

Rochester, Minnesota and Monroe Park, California — Mayo Clinic announced an agreement on Tuesday, October 12, allowing it to provide clinical-grade, comprehensive cancer genome sequencing to cancer patients who choose to participate. The test results will be provided to patients and their medical service providers to guide treatment decisions, advance cancer research, and be used to support the development of new diagnostic tests and cancer treatment therapies.

Miao Yu Medical International Cancer Center ( Mayo Clinic Cancer Center ) , Miao Yu Medical International of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology Department ( Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology ) and the eloquent woo Medical International individualized Medical Center (  Center for Individualized Medicine ) is working with Personalis Inc . (Nasdaq listing code: PSNL) to cooperate. Personalis Inc. is a cancer genomics company. Its clinical-level comprehensive cancer genome testing includes sequencing the entire coding genome through whole exome and transcriptome sequencing. The test can be used by American and international patients in Miaoyou Medical’s US campus, and will provide each patient with a clinical report and comprehensive summary data, and Miaoyou Medical International and Personalis will use these data to further develop this comprehensive diagnostic method.

“Our purpose of establishing this relationship is to ensure that cancer patients from all over the world receive the most comprehensive genomic testing at Miaoyou Medical International,” said William Morice II, MD / PhD , Director of the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology of Miaoyou Medical International . “We are committed to providing this type of testing to a diverse group of patients who have not yet received this type of testing.”

“We believe that the use of aggregated genome sequencing data with no identification information will improve patient care and increase the patient’s chances of obtaining medical care,” said Konstantinos Lazaridis, MD, medical director of the International Center for Individualized Medicine of Miaoyou Medical . Dr. Lazaridis said that the cooperation will help individual patients obtain clinical benefits in treatment and can provide aggregated data, which may lead to the development of new treatment methods and systems and the improvement of existing treatment methods and systems, which will benefit all patients. .

“Developing an individualized treatment plan for each patient based on their unique cancer-causing mutation profile is vital to our mission of providing the most advanced cancer care,” Miaoyou Medical International Cancer Project Executive Director, Miaoyou Medical International Cancer Center Director Cheryl Willman, MD, said. “As we advance the Human Cancer Genome Project to a more diverse and under-researched population, it is especially important to use comprehensive sequencing methods to discover all possible mutations.”

Dr. Willman said that collaboration with organizations such as Personalis provides medical service providers with access to molecular data that may provide new insights into the cause of specific cancers and may also help researchers develop more effective and personalized treatments. method. “Our goal is to improve our’precision prevention’ ability to help us detect and treat cancer earlier in all populations,” said Dr. Willman.

“我们很荣幸能与妙佑医疗国际合作，以此增加了使用先进癌症检测的机会，”Personalis首席医学官Richard Chen医学博士说。“我们对癌症理解的快速进步和新癌症疗法的开发推动了对更全面测试平台的需求。”
