November 10 article: but stock still running: VYSI..DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. (CBS.MW) -- Shares of Vysis Inc. launched 30 percent Tuesday after a Food and Drug Administration committee panel approved its product that helps find breast cancer genes.




Vysis' (VYSI) PathVysion HER-2 DNA kit helps detect the HER-2 gene in women. The company said if women have "abnormally high" amounts of the gene, it can speed up cancerous cells, resist therapy for tumors and eventually cut the life span of women with breast cancer.

"The is the first time the most appropriate treatment will be based on the genetic composition of a patient," said John Bishop, Vysis' chief executive. It will allow therapy to be more precise, he said.

Vysis said the gene "plays a pivotal role" in 25 percent to 30 percent of women with breast cancer.

The FDA could approve the sale of the test in as little as 30 days, Bishop said.
