About OncoInv
OncoInv is a social enterprise which is currently a 100% entity of the Inspire2Live Foundation. Our goal is to get cancer detected in an earlier stage and to make it available for as many people as possible. The cancer burden is disproportionately high in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). For these countries early detection means better treatment options and better survival rates. For the high-income countries, the big advantage is the early detection of cancers that are not in a standard screening program and a simple test for symptomatic people that are not in the screening programs yet.
How we work
The way we work is to collaborate with the local people in their countries. Just by asking: “What is the most effective way to make Multi Cancer Early Detection available for the people that need it.”
It can be used for screening or yearly check-ups, or it can be used for symptomatic patients. We can offer the lab analyses in Europe, but all distributors are free to look for their own local labs to perform the test, which might be less expensive. Of course, it is particularly important that the follow up is arranged for people with positive results. We demand our distributors to organise or ensure follow up by a healthcare worker with guidance for the patients.
We use a differential pricing model that is based on the classification of the World Bank: high, upper-middle, lower-middle-, and low-income countries. This means we are not for profit in the lower- and middle-income countries. For us this is a way to overcome the inequalities in healthcare and to reach as many people as possible.
