PATIENT STORY

Rustam, Tajikistan

Lung Cancer
Rustam, Tajikistan

【Patient profile】 Rustam, 61 years old, partner of a trading company in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, with a long history of smoking.

【Predicaments before coming to China】

The patient was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (adenocarcinoma, stage IIIA) in the middle lobe of the right lung, with mediastinal lymph node metastasis. Tajikistan only offers traditional chemotherapy regimens; there is no mature gene testing system or targeted precision treatment. Treatment in Turkey is estimated to cost over US$55,000, with a long waiting period and low efficiency.

【The decision-making process of choosing Trisana Medguide】

According to the Dushanbe Chinese Enterprises Chamber of Commerce, Trisana Medguide completed the following within 4 days:

- Russian/Tajik medical record translation, digital scanning of pathology slides

- Remote MDT (Multidisciplinary Team) Initial Screening Consultation by Oncology Experts at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital

- Personalized genetic testing plans, precision treatment pathways, and comprehensive cost estimates

【Customer testimonials (anonymous quote)】

"In Dushanbe, I was told that I could only receive traditional chemotherapy. Trisana Medguide allowed me to use the latest international precision targeted therapy, and the radiotherapy had almost no side effects. When I returned to China for a follow-up examination, the local doctors could hardly believe how well it worked."
