Cancer Screening

Cancer is not as scary as it used to be. Time to leave less to chance. Did you know that breast & ovarian cancer treatment and survival rate is 99% if discovered early enough.

Leave Less for Chance

Detect Early. Prevent. Breast Cancer occurs in about 1 in 8 (12.5%) women in their lifetime

Cancer Detection

Breast & Ovarian Cancer

hereditary cancer test includes all genes that are associated with a significantly increased risk of developing breast cancer and for which there are medically actionable, evidence-based management and risk reduction options!

GEN-OBREAST
Cancer Detection

Full Hereditary Cancer Screening

Cancer is a common disease with a lifetime risk of affecting about 1 in 4 individuals in the world. Majority of these cancers are sporadic. However, some cancers are hereditary and can cause increased risk of cancer in certain families.

What is Breast & Ovarian Cancer?

Breast & ovarian cancer are the most common cancers in women. 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.

Breast cancer occurs when the cells in the breast begin to grow abnormally into a malignant tumor. Hereditary breast cancer & ovarian occurs when a person has a genetic change (mutation) that causes their cells to be more likely to become cancerous. The mutation can be passed through generations in a family

Who might need genetic testing for Hereditary Breast & Ovarian Cancer?

Hereditary breast & ovarian cancer testing is indicated if you or a close relative meet certain criteria. Your physician will make the final decision about testing based on your clinical and family history, but some “red flags” suspicious for hbc are listed below:

  • A family history of individuals with breast, pancreatic, prostate, melanoma, or other cancers, especially if early onset or if multiple cancers occurred in a single individual.
  • Breast cancer diagnosed before age 50 years.
  • Known cancer-risk gene mutation in the family Triple negative (ER-, PR-, HER2-) breast cancer before age 60 years.
  • Two primary breast cancers in a single individual.
  • Breast cancer and either ovarian or pancreatic cancer in a single individual
  • Ovarian cancer

How does it work? The science behind it

We use the latest technology in the world (Next Generation Sequencing) to fully sequence 15 GENES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASED RISK OF BREAST CANCER ACROSS THE GENE PANEL WITH A HIGH DEGREE OF ACCURACY (99%).

  • Reports reviewed by certified geneticists & pathologists.
  • Sample SALIVA or BLOOD with 99% ACCURACY.

What is hereditary cancer?

Cancer is a common disease with a lifetime risk of affecting about 1 in 4 individuals in the world. Majority of these cancers are sporadic.

However, some cancers are hereditary and can cause increased risk of cancer in certain families. Approximately 5-10% of all cancer cases are thought to involve hereditary predisposition.

Identifying those at risk may help with early intervention through additional screening, increased surveillance & other interventions

What is GEN-CANCER panel?

A hereditary panel including 123 genes that are associated with hereditary disposition to various cancers, across multiple organ systems.

This panel includes analysis of genes associated with predisposition to the most common hereditary cancer syndromes such as such as breast and ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer and Lynch syndrome.

  • Reports reviewed by certified geneticists & pathologists
  • Sample SALIVA or BLOOD with 99% ACCURACY
  • Approved by American College of Medical Genetics & National Comprehensive Cancer Network

Who might need genetic testing for hereditary cancer?

  • Several members of the same family affected with the same type of cancer or similar types
  • Early onset of cancer in an individual
  • Personal history of several primary cancers
