Description
In today's fast-paced world, factors like unhealthy lifestyle choices, lack of exercise, environmental toxins, and genetic predisposition have led to increasing concerns about breast and ovarian cancer risks. These life-threatening conditions, often linked to BRCA gene mutations, can impact multiple generations within families. Our PanBRCA™ Inherited Breast & Ovarian Cancer Screening Test offers comprehensive genetic analysis using advanced DNA sequencing technology to help you understand your hereditary cancer risks and take proactive preventive measures. Schedule your screening today to protect your health and your family's future with our specialized genetic counseling and early detection services!

Breast cancer is the third most deadly cancer among women in Hong Kong, second only to lung cancer and colorectal cancer. In recent years, many studies have found that mutations in BRCA1&2 genes are related to various cancers. The occurrence of pathogenic mutations in BRCA genes will lead to the failure of the DNA repair mechanism and increase the risk of cancers. If there is an inherited mutation in genes, the chance of rapid cell division and change increases, and the possibility of developing cancer is also greater.
- In 2019, a total of 852 women died from this cancer in Hong Kong, accounting for 13.7% of all cancer deaths in females
- It is estimated that more than 5 million people in China carry BRCA disease-causing gene mutations
- In Asians, the risk of a cancer-causing mutation in the BRCA gene represent as below: 87% of Breast cancer
- 44% of ovarian cancer and also an increased risk for other types of cancer (such as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, etc.)
Specifically Designed for Asians – Common Asian – Specific Gene Mutations
- Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the most advanced technology to detect any genetic mutations, including gene rearrangements and large deletions of BRCA1&2 genes, related to hereditary breast cancer and ovarian cancer
- Designed for screening Asian genetic mutations, with coverage up to 95%
High Accuracy Trustworthy Bioinformatics
- PanBRCA™ uses advanced data analysis technology to achieve a higher detection and analytical sensitivity than most other BRCA test in the market
- A confirmatory test will be performed in dual to ensure the highest accuracy
- The test is highly rated with exceptional performance in the Proficiency testing program provided by the College of American Pathologist (CAP)
