Investigations of an improved esophageal cancer diagnostics approach.

e15059 Background: For esophageal cancer, no viable non-invasive detection technologies are available today. In this investigation, a newly developed IVD cancer diagnostic technology named Cancer Differentiation Analysis Technology (CDA) was investigated for esophageal cancer detection. In a CDA technology, multi-level and multi-parameter information is collected using a medical device fabricated by Anpac Bio-Medical Science Co., Ltd. which measures information relating to both protein fragments and cellular signals in blood samples in a single test. Methods: Blood samples were collected in EDTA vacutainer tubes, with 49 esophageal cancer patients and 303 healthy individuals (control group). CDA data was then collected, and analysis was carried out. Results: The results showed significant statistical difference between esophageal cancer and control groups with P value < 0.05 (Table 1). Also, CDA values at different stages of esophageal cancer samples showed possible effectiveness using CDA technology for ...
