Avalon GloboCare Announces the Deployment of Breakthrough Fusion Gene Map Technology
04 January 2023 - 1:00AM
Avalon GloboCare Corp. (“Avalon” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:
ALBT), a leading global developer of innovative cell-based
technologies and therapeutics and laboratory testing provider,
today announced that it has deployed a breakthrough fusion gene map
technology to be used for the goal of developing companion
diagnostic kits and devices to enhance personalized clinical
management of leukemia patients.
In collaboration with the Lu Daopei Institute of
Hematology, a fusion gene map database from over 1,000 patients
with leukemia was established and the results were previously
published in the Blood Cancer Journal. Fusion genes are important
genetic abnormalities in leukemia. Using advanced gene sequencing
technology, called “Whole Transcriptome Sequencing” (WTS), multiple
previously unknown fusion genes were identified which may
potentially establish novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets.
“Fusion genes are crucial in the diagnosis and
treatment of leukemia. All well-known fusion genes are founder
variations and constitute critical causative factors and can serve
as important indicators of disease diagnosis,” stated David Jin,
M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Avalon
GloboCare. “Avalon is applying the bioinformatics from the fusion
gene map with the goal of accelerating the development and
commercialization of companion diagnostic kits and devices to
enhance personalized clinical management of leukemia patients. The
first diagnostic prototype is expected to enter clinical study and
regulatory filing stage during Q3 of 2023. The fusion gene map
technology also provides an unprecedented opportunity to identify
and validate fusion gene products as potential novel therapeutic
targets. Additionally, this gives us an opportunity to expand
Avalon’s R&D pipeline and intellectual property portfolio.”
