Our bodies are composed of tens of trillions of cells, and within each cell is DNA (genes) — a blueprint that records life information, determining our growth, metabolism, health conditions, and even disease risks.
Genetic testing involves analyzing DNA sequences to identify genetic variations that affect health, helping doctors and researchers make more accurate diagnoses, assess risks, and even select the most appropriate treatment methods.
Among these, NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is the most advanced genetic testing technology available today. It can analyze a large number of genes at once, providing rapid and accurate genome interpretation. NGS is widely applied in precision oncology, genetic disease diagnosis, and pharmacogenomics (drug response evaluation).

Introduction to Galeas CTC
CancerFree Biotech, in collaboration with the UK-based Nonacus Ltd., introduces the Galeas Tumor testing project. Tumor testing project. By combining cutting-edge technology and precision medicine, it offers a new perspective on tumor analysis.
Unlike traditional pathology that uses tissue biopsies, Galeas CTC leverages our proprietary E.V.A. (Ex Vivo Avatar) platform to detect amplified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs), offering three key advantages.
Three Key Advantages
More Comprehensive Tumor Information
Traditional tissue biopsies only reflect local tissue conditions, while liquid biopsy cfDNA (circulating free DNA) mainly originates from fragments of dead tumor cells, providing limited information. CancerFree’s culture technology focuses on highly malignant tumor cells, delivering a more complete analysis of tumor behavior.
Higher Representativeness and Accuracy
CTCs cultured using the E.V.A. platform accurately reflect the dynamic characteristics of tumors, aiding physicians and patients in making more precise treatment decisions.
Non-invasive and Forward-looking
Compared to traditional biopsies, our method reduces invasive burden on patients and opens new possibilities for tumor research and personalized medicine.
