Blood Test for ENOX2. The ONCOblotÂ® Test is a highly sensitive blood test for the detection of the protein ENOX2. ENOX2 has been demonstrated to be produced by malignant cells. The ONCOblotÂ® Test was developed as a tissue of origin test and to provide a non-invasive follow-up option to existing tests such as a High PSA, Abnormal Mammogram, Suspicious PET Scan and biopsies.
What is the blood test based on? The ONCOblotÂ® blood test identifies a specific type of protein in the blood, ENOX2, which exists only on the surface of a malignant cancer cell. The ENOX2 proteins are shed into the circulation and can be detected in the blood. These proteins serve as highly sensitive markers for confirmation of cancer presence.
