World Cancer Day—Early Detection, Diagnosis, and Treatment

Early detection. Early diagnosis. Early treatment.

What can we do in the face of cancer?

• Follow a healthy lifestyle
• Create a healthy workplace
• Create a healthy city
• Regular physical examination

10 Most Common Warning Signs of Cancer

1. A mass in any part of the body, such as in the breast or abdomen, especially one that gradually grows in size;
2. Ulcers that occur without trauma on any part of the body, such as the tongue, buccal mucosa, skin, etc., especially when they do not heal for a long time;
3. Women in their middle ages and above have irregular vaginal bleeding or discharge (commonly known as leukorrhea);
4. Poststernal swelling, burning pain, foreign body sensation, or progressive dysphagia when eating;
5. Persistent dry cough or blood in sputum;
6. Unexplainable long-term indigestion, progressive loss of appetite, and weight loss;
7. Changes in bowel movements or habits, or blood in the stool;
8. Nasal congestion, epistaxis, unilateral headache, or accompanied by diplopia;
9. Black moles on the body suddenly enlarge or rupture, bleed, and shed old hair;
10. Painless hematuria.

Focus on Health Using Science to Prevent Cancer

Have regular medical check-ups

Early detection and prevention

While cancer indiscriminately takes another life, the key to preventing that is early detection through physical examinations and cancer screening.

Cancer is preventable.

1. The World Health Organization’s Cancer Committee proposed that one-third of cancers can be prevented; one-third can be cured through early detection; and one-third can utilize medical interventions to prolong and improve their quality of life.
2. The key to prevention is three early actions: early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment.
3. In recent years, a large number of research studies have proven that physical activities and exercise positively correlates to cancer prevention. It also enhances therapeutic effect, alleviates toxic side effects from treatment, delay metastasis, and prolongs the lives of patients.

The Earlier, the Better: Against Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer is the fourth deadliest cancer in the world. In China, 500,000 cases are diagnosed every year, with most at intermediate to late stages and therefore prognoses are poor. Of great significance, tumor prevention and early screening reduces morbidity and mortality.

Innovative Technology for Colorectal Cancer Early Detection

Gene mutations and changes can trigger the process of intestinal carcinogenesis. By detecting circulating tumor DNA in the blood, it becomes possible to detect colorectal cancer early on. HymonBio adopts the innovative ECS high-efficiency magnetic bead extraction technology and nanobody molecular lock technology, which greatly improves detection sensitivity and specificity. It uses a non-invasive blood test, allowing for easier sampling, and effectively decreases the public’s fear of possible colonoscopy and time wasted, while also increasing screening compliance.
