BRCA1 & BRCA2 Mutation Analysis

Overview

BRCA1 & BRCA2 Mutation Analysis is a genetic test used to identify inherited mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. These genes play a vital role in repairing damaged DNA. Mutations in these genes can significantly increase the risk of developing certain cancers, particularly breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancers.

Why is this Test Recommended?

• Assess hereditary cancer risk
• Family history of breast or ovarian cancer
• Early-onset breast cancer diagnosis
• Multiple family members affected by cancer
• Male breast cancer history
• Personalized cancer prevention and treatment planning

Sample Required

• Peripheral Blood (EDTA Blood)

Test Method

• Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS)
• Mutation Analysis of BRCA1 & BRCA2 Genes

Benefits of the Test

✔ Identifies inherited cancer-related mutations
✔ Helps guide preventive healthcare decisions
✔ Supports personalized treatment strategies
✔ Assists in family risk assessment and genetic counseling
✔ Enables early surveillance and risk management

Who Should Consider This Test?

• Individuals with a strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer
• Patients diagnosed with breast cancer at a young age
• Individuals with a family history of BRCA mutations
• Those seeking hereditary cancer risk evaluation

Preparation

No special preparation is required. Genetic counseling may be recommended before and after testing.

Interpretation

• Positive: Pathogenic mutation detected, indicating increased hereditary cancer risk.
• Negative: No clinically significant mutation detected in the tested regions.
• Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS): Genetic alteration detected with unclear clinical significance.
