Protect Your Family from Lung Cancer: Know Your Genetic Risk
When lung cancer affects your family, the fear can be overwhelming. You worry about your parents, your siblings, your children. Our EGFR Gene Familial Lung Cancer Susceptibility Test gives you the answers you need to break the cycle of worry and take proactive control of your health.
Understanding Your Genetic Risk for Lung Cancer
The EGFR gene plays a crucial role in cell growth and division. When specific mutations occur in this gene, they can significantly increase your susceptibility to developing non-small cell lung cancer. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with exceptional precision, identifying these critical genetic markers that traditional screening might miss.
This isn’t just another test – it’s a comprehensive genetic analysis that provides clarity about your inherited risk factors, helping you and your healthcare team make informed decisions about your health future.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you identify with any of these situations:
- Multiple family members diagnosed with lung cancer
- A first-degree relative (parent, sibling, child) with early-onset lung cancer
- Family history of cancer in non-smokers
- Personal concerns about inherited cancer risk
- Planning for future health management and screening
If you’ve ever wondered “Could this happen to me?” – this test provides the scientific answers to ease your mind.
