Overview

Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer that occur in men. About 1 in 10 prostate cancer cases are associated with hereditary predisposition and have a higher risk of developing cancer in the future. Hereditary prostate cancers are also characterised by more aggressiveness than prostate cancers without a hereditary predisposition.

PreSENTIA hereditary Prostate cancer panel tests for numerous germline mutations in 15 associated genes that could cause prostate cancers in the future. Identifying germline mutations associated with cancer susceptibility empowers healthcare providers and patients, as it allows them to take better and more informed decisions.
