Finally clarity before the first therapy

After my diagnosis, I faced so many questions. I didn’t want to just start any therapy without knowing if it would even work on my tumor. The sensitivity test gave me, for the first time, the feeling of being able to make a truly informed decision. Thanks to the results, my doctor could start a targeted treatment, and for the first time, I felt like I was actively participating in the decision.

The turning point after several failed attempts

I had already undergone several rounds of chemotherapy, but nothing really worked. It wore me down– physically and emotionally. Through the test, I found out that my tumor didn’t respond to a particular medication – that explains a lot in hindsight. At the same time, we found a drug that actually works. It was a turning point in my treatment.

Thomas K., 62

Targeted treatment, without unnecessary stress

It was important to me to be treated as gently and effectively as possible – without weeks of suffering from side effects. The test not only showed which medication worked, but also at which dosage it would be well tolerated by my body. I’m very grateful I was able to take this path. It gave me back a big part of my quality of life.

How the X Tumor sensitivity test works

1. You provide a tumor sample (tumor cells from your blood)

2. In the lab, your live tumor cells are cultured and grown

3. The tumor cells are treated with over 60 different substances

4. Various dosages are tested

5. The cell reactions are precisely measured (using ATP bioluminescence)

6. You receive a detailed report with therapy recommendations for your doctor

Studies

The right test for individually effective therapy

ATP-based chemosensitivity tests Pfeil

Studies show that ATP luminescence tests can reliably predict the effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents.

  • Predictive accuracy: up to 90% for breast and ovarian cancer.
  • Positive predictive value: 85–90%, negative predictive value: nearly 100%.
  • Response rates tripled, survival nearly doubled with assay-guided therapy.

Pancreatic cancer: Chemotest & gene profiling Pfeil

Ex vivo testing plus gene expression analysis improve the prediction of treatment success with the drug gemcitabine.

  • Patients with sensitive tumors: relapse only after 269 days (vs. 71 days).
  • The test was especially reliable when combined with gene analysis.
  • It is possible to decide before therapy whether gemcitabine makes sense.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the X Tumor sensitivity test

What exactly is an X Tumor sensitivity test?
This test shows how your individual tumor responds to various medications, even before therapy begins. In the lab, your tumor cells are treated with approved substances in different dosages. This clearly reveals which medications actually work and which do not. Based on these results, your therapy can be planned in a targeted and personalized way.
What testing methods are used?

We use various modern laboratory methods to find out which medications are effective against your tumor, and which are not. A central method is the so-called ATP-TCA (Tumor Chemosensitivity Assay). This is an ex vivo test, meaning your tumor cells are analyzed outside your body in the lab, but under realistic conditions.

These living cells are treated with various chemotherapeutics and biologics in different dosages. The energy production (ATP) of the cells is then measured. The less ATP present after treatment, the better the medication works.

The method shows how sensitive your tumor is to specific active ingredients (chemo/biologic sensitivity). This way, you receive a precise, individually tailored recommendation for your therapy, even before it begins.

Who is the test especially suitable for?
The test is suitable for anyone about to undergo cancer therapy and wants to know what really works. It is especially helpful for patients with rare or advanced tumors where standard therapy is not effective. Even if you have already undergone several therapies, the test can reveal new, effective options.
Which medications are tested?

More than 60 approved chemotherapeutic agents, targeted therapies, and combinations are tested, dosed exactly as they would be used in real treatment. The test not only checks effectiveness, but also determines the optimal dosage to minimize side effects.

How does the test work? Do I need to go to the hospital?
No, hospitalization is not required. Usually, an existing tumor sample (e.g., from a biopsy) can be used. Alternatively, circulating tumor cells from a blood sample can be used. The sample is sent to a specialized lab, and your treating physician receives a detailed report for further planning.
How quickly will I get the results?
The analysis usually takes 7 to 10 working days after the sample arrives at the lab. An expedited process is also possible upon request. This way, you quickly receive a solid basis for making decisions about your therapy.
How reliable is the test?
The test is based on scientifically validated methods like the ATP chemosensitivity test. Studies show predictive accuracy of up to 90% for certain types of cancer. This means that the medications tested in the lab tend to work similarly in the body, making the therapy safer and more targeted.
Will my health insurance cover the costs?
Private insurance companies often cover the costs fully or partially. For public insurance, coverage may be considered on a case-by-case basis. We are happy to support you in finding the right solution and help you with your application.
