Why MyRisk?

For patients with family history of certain cancers, hereditary cancer testing is the primary way to determine if they are at an increased risk of developing specific types of cancer.

MyRisk with RiskScore evaluates 48 genes associated with hereditary cancer risk to identify genetic changes associated with an increased cancer risk. When combined with family history and other clinical factors, MyRisk with RiskScore provides each patient with a cancer risk assessment individualized to them.

MyRiskTM Hereditary Cancer Test

MyRisk is more than a test

Delivers personalized care plans

The MyRisk Management Tool offers personalized guidance for patients and providers to work together to reduce risk of developing cancer or detect it at an earlier, more treatable stage.

Guides medical management decisions

Because of the precision science behind MyRisk, 53% of patients2 qualify for a medical management change that may help lower cancer risk, as opposed to only 10% with other hereditary cancer tests.

Gives a precise answer about breast cancer risk

As the only hereditary cancer test designed for patients of all ancestries, the RiskScore component of MyRisk gives patients both a five-year and lifetime risk estimate of developing breast cancer. This is calculated using a combination of clinical risk factors, family history, and unique genetic, ancestry-informed breast cancer risk markers.

Complete results for personalized cancer risk management

Every MyRisk test report provides a personalized assessment of a patient’s hereditary cancer risk, providing healthcare providers and patients with clear information to make informed decisions about managing cancer risk.

  • Comprehensive risk assessment

    MyRisk assesses patient risk beyond just positive or negative, offering the following results:

    Positive
    Elevated
    Negative

  • MyRisk Management Tool

    The MyRisk Management Tool offers personalized guidance for patients with a higher risk of cancer. These plans may include guidelines for increased surveillance, risk- reducing medications, and/or risk-reducing surgery.

  • RiskScore for all ancestries

    Eligible patients will be provided with a RiskScore which gives a personalized estimate of their five-year and remaining lifetime risk for developing breast cancer, guiding more confident decisions in managing their breast cancer risk.
