Take Control of Your Cancer Risk with Advanced Genetic Screening
When cancer runs in your family, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. The Oncopro Hereditary Cancer Risk Panel provides the clarity and peace of mind you deserve. This comprehensive genetic screening analyses 200 cancer-related genes to identify potential hereditary risks, empowering you with knowledge for proactive health management.
As South Africans, we understand the importance of early detection and prevention. With cancer affecting so many families across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria, having access to advanced genetic testing can make all the difference in your healthcare journey.
Understanding Your Hereditary Cancer Risk
The Oncopro panel uses cutting-edge Next Generation Sequencing technology to examine 200 genes associated with hereditary cancer syndromes. This includes genes like BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, and many others that can indicate increased risk for breast, ovarian, colorectal, prostate, and various other cancers.
Unlike standard genetic tests that might only check a few genes, our comprehensive approach ensures no potential risk factors are overlooked. The test is conducted by experienced oncologists and genetic specialists who understand the unique healthcare needs of South African patients.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Screening?
This test is particularly important if you experience any of these situations:
- Multiple family members with the same type of cancer
- Cancer diagnosed at a young age (under 50)
- Multiple different cancers in the same person
- Known genetic mutations in your family
- Personal history of rare cancers
- Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry with cancer history
- Unexplained cancer clusters in your family
Many South African families carry genetic variations that can increase cancer risk. Knowing your genetic profile allows for personalised screening and prevention strategies.
Why This Matters for Your Health Journey
Early knowledge of hereditary cancer risk provides significant advantages:
- Proactive Prevention: Implement targeted screening and lifestyle changes
- Family Planning: Make informed decisions about genetic inheritance
- Peace of Mind: Reduce anxiety through knowledge and control
- Personalised Care: Work with your doctor on customised prevention plans
- Early Detection: Increase chances of successful treatment through timely intervention
For many patients, the relief of knowing their genetic status outweighs the uncertainty of not knowing.
Understanding Your Test Results
Our genetic counsellors provide clear, compassionate explanations of your results:
- Positive Result: Indicates a genetic variation that may increase cancer risk. We provide detailed guidance on next steps and prevention strategies.
- Negative Result: No known cancer-risk variations detected in the genes tested.
