LiverAM-Prognosis and Monitoring of Liver Cancer Ablation

Ablation is a non-invasive, low-risk, low-cost, and effective treatment, so it has been widely used in recent years, especially for early-stage liver cancer patients who cannot undergo liver resection or transplantation. The five-year survival rate of early-stage liver cancer patients treated with ablation is comparable to that of resection surgery. However, within five years after ablation, there is still a high recurrence rate of 60%-85%. Prognosis and monitoring after ablation are crucial to the survival rate of liver cancer patients.

The current liver cancer markers that can be monitored are only serum protein AFP or PIVKAII. However, these two serum markers not only have low sensitivity, but also do not show a high proportion in early-stage liver cancer patients, which makes monitoring challange.

LiverAM can serve as an indicator for ablation prognosis and monitoring, supplementing the poor performance of AFP or PIVKA-II. It can also timely evaluate the treatment effect after ablation, thereby improving the survival rate of patients.

Our Advantages

LiverAM is the world's first product that uses methylation markers for the prognosis and monitoring of liver cancer ablation.

World-leading

LiverAM is the world's first product that uses methylation markers for the prognosis and monitoring of liver cancer ablation.
Compared to the current biochemical markers and clinical pathological evaluations, LiverAM can serve as a more precise assessment tool for ablation prognosis and monitoring.

Precise

Compared to the current biochemical markers and clinical pathological evaluations, LiverAM can serve as a more precise assessment tool for ablation prognosis and monitoring.
LiverAM is a test for ctDNA in the blood, which is a type of liquid biopsy. It is noninvasive, safe, and convenient for monitoring.

Clinical Performance of LiverAM

Clinical Performance of LiverAM - AUC

LiverRP臨床效能 - AUC
AUC (Area Under Curve) is the area under the ROC curve, representing the ability to predict cancer.
AUC=1 means both sensitivity and specificity are 100%. AUC = 0.5 represents no discrimination; AUC between 0.6 and 0.7 is acceptable discrimination; AUC between 0.7 and 0.8 has excellent discrimination; AUC between 0.9 and 1 represents excellent discrimination.

Clinical Performance of LiverAM - Sensitivity

LiverRP臨床效能 - 靈敏度
Sensitivity, also known as the true positive rate, refers to the proportion of samples that are actually effective for liver cancer ablation and are detected as effective for liver cancer ablation

Clinical Performance of LiverAM - Specificity

LiverRP臨床效能 - 特異度
Specificity, also known as the true negative rate, refers to the proportion of samples that are actually not effective for liver cancer ablation and are determined to be not effective for liver cancer ablation

Clinical Performance of LiverAM - Monitoring

LiverRP臨床效能 – 五年存活率預測
For patients who respond well to ablation, the methylation markers decrease after the surgery. For patients who do not respond well to the ablation, the methylation markers remain stable or increase after the surgery. There is a significant difference between the two, and the ablation prognosis monitoring panel can serve as a good predictive tool.
