Human Chemotherapeutic-Related Gene SNP Detection Kit

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The Human Chemotherapeutic-Related Gene SNP Detection Kit is designed to identify genetic polymorphisms that affect individual responses to chemotherapy drugs. This helps in selecting appropriate drugs, predicting treatment efficacy, and minimizing adverse effects.

Gene Mutation and Drug Interaction
Chemotherapy drugs often lack selectivity, affecting both cancerous and normal cells, leading to adverse reactions. Genetic variations, such as those in the UGT1A1 gene, can influence drug metabolism and toxicity, highlighting the importance of genetic testing in personalized medicine.

Detected Genes and Drugs
The kit detects 26 genes and 33 loci, providing insights into the efficacy and side effects of 19 chemotherapy drug combinations. Key genes include DPYD, UGT1A1, and MTHFR, while drugs include Fluorouracil, Docetaxel, and Tamoxifen.

Product Information
The kit uses RingCap® technology and is available in 16 or 32 tests per kit. It is validated for use with Ion Torrent and Illumina instruments and requires peripheral blood samples.

Detection Significance
By analyzing chemotherapeutic drug-related genes, the kit helps predict drug sensitivity and toxicity, improving treatment specificity and reducing toxicity risks.

Features & Advantages
The kit offers ease of use with a two-step library preparation process, fast results within 3.5 hours, and reliable accuracy using specific primers. It references PharmGKB Clinical Annotation Levels for evidence support.

Detection Process
The process involves nucleic acid extraction, library preparation, sequencing, auto-data analysis, and reporting.

Human Chemotherapeutic-Related Gene SNP Detection Kit-1

Human Chemotherapeutic-Related Gene SNP Detection Kit (Next Generation Sequencing) GENE MUTATION AND DRUG The selectivity of chemotherapy drugs is relatively weak, as they not only kill cancer cells but also damage normal cells in the body, resulting in adverse drug reactions. The effectiveness of chemotherapy is influenced by individual patient differences, including sensitivity and tolerance to chemotherapy drugs, as well as the inherent toxicity of the drugs themselves. For example, certain genetic polymorphisms in the gene encoding for UGT1A1 can result in a decreased level of glucuronidation of the active metabolite of irinotecan, resulting in anaccumulation of the drug and increased risk for toxicity. Nowadays, genetic testing can be used to predict individual responses to specific drugs, assisting patients in selecting appropriate chemotherapy drugs, predicting treatment efficacy, and avoiding serious side effects. DETECTED GENES This test kit enables detection of 26 target genes and 33 loci, providing guidance for the evaluation of the efficacy and adverse effects of 19 first-line chemotherapy drug combinations, including toxic side effects. Detected Genes Common Chemotherapy Drugs Fluorouracil、Leucovorin、Gemcitabine、Docetaxel、 Vinorelbine、Cyclophosphamide、Doxorubicin、 Paclitaxel、Platinum-based drugs、Pemetrexed、 Capecitabine、Anthracyclines、Tamoxifen、 Etoposide、Methotrexate etc PRODUCT INFORMATION Product Name Human Chemotherapeutic-Related Gene SNP Detection Kit Core Technology RingCap® Pack Size Instruments Validated Sample Type Peripheral blood DETECTION SIGNIFICANCE By detecting chemotherapeutic drug-related genes in cancer patients, it is possible to determine the sensitivity and toxicity of chemotherapy drugs. This can provide a scientific basis for predicting the efficacy of drugs, improving the specificity of treatmen
