Genetic Testing for Cancer

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing is a genetic screening test provided by Malaysian Genomics Resource Centre Berhad (MGRC). This Genetic Testing investigates clinically relevant genetic variants that have been associated with a predisposition to different types of cancers. All markers have been published and experimentally replicated in peer reviewed scientific journals.

In Malaysia, the most common cancers include cervical, breast, liver, colorectal, renal, prostate, nasopharyngeal, ovarian and bladder cancers. These cancers are typically best treated with early detection.

Advantages of MJ Genetic Cancer Testing

Rapid Testing

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing screens patient's DNA using multiple genotyping assays. These assays are run in parallel to identify a patient's genotype for clinically informative genetic markers that have been associated with risks for various types of cancers.

Validated Technology

This genetic screening test uses the latest research technologies and equipment available from Life Technologies Corporation, USA.

Comprehensive Results

The results are reported in a precise and concise format, allowing doctors to easily interpret the analysis and present the findings to patients. The MJ Genetic Cancer Testing report highlights the risk factors, and helps doctors to recommend additional tests and to prescribe suitable treatments for the patient, if deemed necessary.

Easy Sample Collection

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing only requires a blood sample.

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing Panel

MJ Genetic Cancer Testing screens 94 genes for 192 genetic markers associated with 32 types of cancers.

Genetic screening of patients can assist and support medical diagnosis, and help with the management of genetic diseases across the family. Markers for disease risks are likely to be shared by first-degree relatives (siblings, children, parents).

From the MJ Cancer Genetic Testing results, doctors could advise clinically asymptomatic relatives of patients to undergo screening. Doctors could also recommend regular health monitoring for individuals who receive positive screening results from the MJ test.
