This price reduction will make broad molecular diagnostics accessible to more patients with cancer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Robert Jan Lamers, Managing Director of Hartwig Medical Foundation:<br>\u201cEvery patient with cancer deserves access to the best possible diagnostics and treatment. By lowering the price, molecular diagnostics become available to more patients, supporting clinicians in selecting the bestt treatment options for their patients.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The price reduction has been made possible by the implementation of the Illumina NovaSeq X-Plus sequencing platform, on which WGS has been validated for diagnostic use. Hartwig will also continue to contribute to the costs to further promote the use of WGS for patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OncoAct WGS can be used as reimbursed diagnostics for cancer of unknown primary (CUP\/PTO), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and for determining responsiveness to NTRK-inhibitors, regardless of tumor type, subject to agreement with health insurers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For AYA patients (Adolescents and Young Adults), OncoAct WGS remains free of charge for hospitals as part of the KWF-funded GENAYA-project. More information is available at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.genaya.nl\">GENAYA.nl<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have any questions?
