IN BRIEF: Yourgene Health Says Oncology Test To Be Used In Wales

Mon, 12th Oct 2020 14:37

Yourgene Health PLC - Manchester-based molecular diagnostics group which develops and commercialises genetic products and services - Says its oncology product, Elucigene DPYD test, is now being used in Wales to routinely screen all cancer patients prior to the start of treatment with chemotherapeutic drug 5-Fluorouracil, to identify the risk of severe side effects. Elucigene DPYD is a genotyping test that can identify cancer patients with DPD deficiency, which can cause severe and sometimes lethal side effects in patients being treated with chemotherapeutic drug 5-Fluorouracil. Will be providing the Elucigene DPYD tests to screen for approximately 200 patients each month for the next year. If 2,400 patients are screened, and the positive rate of 6% continues, Yourgene anticipates that 144 cancer patients will be prevented from having toxic chemotherapy reactions.
