List of diseases covered by the panel
Lab method: NGS panel with CNV analysis
TAT: 6-9 weeks
Specimen requirements: 2-4 ml of blood with anticoagulant EDTA

1 µg DNA in TE, AE or pure sterile water at 100-250 ng/µl
The A260/A280 ratio should be 1.8-2.0. DNA sample should be run on an agarose gel as a single band, showing no degradation, alongside with a quantitative DNA marker.

Indications for genetic testing:

    1. Testing of individuals with early-age-onset of cancer
    2. Testing of individuals with multiple primary cancers
    3. Testing of family members of the affected individuals
    4. Testing individuals with family history suggesting inherited pattern of cancer but no genetic changes identified previously
    5. Genetic counseling

Determination of cancer predisposition is vital for prevention and early detection of the disease. Early diagnosis of cancer will ensure the immediate start of treatment, which is a key to increasing the survival and recovery. Significant difference between the survival rates of early stage and advanced stage of cancer points out the need for risk assessment of the disease.

Identification of genetic susceptibility to hereditary cancer syndromes enables to implement risk-reduction strategies, estimate familial cancer risk and identify at-risk family members.

Cancer predisposition testing includes NGS panel and deletion/duplication analysis, allowing us to analyze multiple genes associated with an increased risk for a wide range of cancers.
