Onconomics Extracts

Our Onconomics Extracts test assesses how effective specific natural substances are in treating your cancer. Having this information on-hand means that targeted therapies can then be devised to maximize the potential of treating your cancer successfully.

The Onconomics Extracts test result answers the question, “Which natural substances are the most effective for targeting your cancer?”

The test provides valuable information for patients who have either exhausted their chemotherapeutic options or are not interested in them.

The list of natural substances that can help with cancer treatment is endless. However, the degree of effectiveness of each substance may be different across patients, even if they have the same cancer type.

Knowing what combination of natural substances will work best to fight your cancer helps design treatment protocols for your cancer.

How the test works

The Onconomics Extracts test provides highly detailed and accurate information about how effective natural anti-cancer substances and targeted therapies are in treating cancer.

The information it uncovers can become crucial for devising individualized treatment plans for each patient. The Onconomics Extracts panel provides information about the following details.

Circulating tumor cell (CTC) count
Effectiveness of 50+ natural substances on your cancer cells

The Onconomics Extracts test is performed on a sample of your blood using our liquid biopsy technique.

Even with the same cancer type diagnosis, no two patients are the same. Your individual biology and how the cancer cells behave in your body are unique to you. Personalizing treatment for individual patients can, therefore, offer a better chance for treatment to be effective.

Let’s look at the type of information returned as part of the Onconomics Extracts panel.

CTC count

The Onconomics Extracts panel returns your CTC count, which measures the volume of the cancer cells in your bloodstream. Knowing the pattern of movement of your CTC count - whether it is increasing or decreasing - can guide treatment choices toward achieving better results.

Natural substances

Many natural substances are known to have cancer-targeting properties. But not all substances work equally for every patient. For instance, while some patients may benefit from turmeric or high doses of vitamin C, others may see no change in their cancer status.

The Onconomics Extracts panel takes the guesswork out of the picture and tests over 50 natural substances on your cancer cells. This information provides evidence on which substances will likely have the greatest chance of showing positive results for your body and cancer.

Additional substances

We can also include five additional substances in the price of the Onconomics Extracts test. Each additional substance beyond the five is charged separately, but there is no upper limit to how many you can add.

If a patient wants to test a substance that is not on our list, we can accept small samples of the said substance(s) in the lab along with the blood sample. Here is a guideline on how to package a physical sample to ship to our lab when needed.

Using the Onconomics Extracts panel for best results

The Onconomics Extracts panel is an incredibly empowering tool that patients and practitioners can use to find out exactly what types of treatments can help each individual patient.

When a patient partners with us, we begin by establishing a baseline of their readings with the Oncotrace test. The patient’s care team has this information as a yardstick against which progress can be measured going forward.

Patients follow this up with our Onconomics Extracts panel to receive comprehensive information on the efficacy of various natural substances on their cancer.

This test provides data about specific substances from the natural world that can be effective on the cancer, offering individualized patient profiles.

Although the test results are quite technical in nature, your accredited practitioner can help you interpret these results and guide you on your treatment journey. While some treatment options may not be part of conventional treatment models, your care team can guide you through the process of identifying suitable treatments based on our test panel recommendations.

What to expect during testing

For the Onconomics Extracts panel, a liquid biopsy is performed with a sample of blood drawn from your body. Patients provide us with their blood samples; no surgery or tissue biopsy is needed. Brain and CNS cancers require a tissue or CSF sample instead of blood sample.

All samples are shipped to our international laboratory in Greece. All our accredited practitioners and clinicians understand our shipping instructions and ensure the samples arrive in perfect condition. Test results can take 7-10 days from arrival at the lab to be ready.

Price in Euros: € 1550

Disclaimer:
* Prices in $USD vary slightly based on the exchange rate on the day the test is ordered.
** These prices do not include in-office fees such as consultation, blood draws, IV administration, etc.
