Changing people's lives

Early detection makes a difference

4

Every 4th woman gets cancer during their lifetime.
48%

In 48% of cases, breast cancer is widespread at the time of detection, meaning it has a poor prognosis.
99%

With timely detection of breast cancer, it is possible to achieve a 99% probability of recovery.

Personalised cancer prevention is an up-to-date solution aimed at minimising the potential impact of three different cancers by tailoring it to your genetic risk level.

Tests take into account your unique characteristics – genetic composition, sex, age and ethnicity – which make your results fully personalised.

Personalised cancer prevention is meant for all women aged 35-75.

Research has shown that the genetic predisposition of many cancers is due to variants in many genes, meaning it is polygenic. Antegenes assesses a person’s risk of developing cancer using polygenic risk score technology, which is developed based on extensive international research. The polygenic risk score (PRS) sums up information over hundreds to thousands of genetic variants in the human genome. By combining the PRS with a person’s background (origin, age and gender), we are able to calculate a person’s risk of developing cancer and provide medical advice on prevention and early detection.

Based on the test results, you will receive personalised preventive recommendations from leading medical experts in the field. This guidance includes when and how to initiate cancer screening and other effective strategies to reduce your risks.

Armed with scientifically backed and well-documented medical advice, you are equipped to take preventive measures within your local healthcare system to proactively protect your health.

"I am one of those who became a breast cancer survivor under the age of 50. But at the same time, I am very lucky because I knew about my high polygenic risk score earlier thanks to the Antegenes genetic risk test so I started having mammograms several years ago. My cancer that did not make itself felt at all was discovered during a regular annual check-up as a small and easily treatable cancer. Only the PRS showed a high risk of breast cancer; a later genetic test during treatment did not find any common mutations associated with cancer. Without the Antegenes test, I might not have suspected that it would be wise for me to have a breast examination before the age of 50."

"When I had the opportunity to find out my personal cancer risk, I didn't doubt for a second. These are not empty words, but I believe the revolution in cancer prevention is really here. I now know that I must start a routine check 10 years before the national colorectal cancer screening. This is valuable information that you should not be afraid of."

Kaia, 37
"Since I am younger than the age of being called for breast cancer screening, it was important for me to take a genetic risk test to find out my own genetic risk assessment of breast cancer and what I can do at a younger age to maintain my health. I found out that I have a higher risk and I’m now advised to go for a mammography screening as early as age 40 and should do it every two years. This is why I strongly encourage and recommend this kind of genetic testing – it gave me a sense of peace."

What does AnteCancerW test include?

Personalised cancer prevention for women is based on the AnteCancerW test, which includes genetic risk testing for breast cancer, colorectal cancer and skin melanoma.
AnteCancerW Test Limitations
- AnteCancerW test is not used to diagnose breast, colorectal cancer and melanoma.
- An elevated risk estimated by the AnteCancerW test does not mean that you will develop breast, colorectal cancer or melanoma during your lifetime. Also, a moderate or lower risk does not mean that the probability of developing the diseases is zero.
- AnteCancerW test does not assess the risk of your family and relatives, i.e. polygenic risk score-based disease risks may not be transmitted directly from parents to children.
- AnteCancerW does not analyze rare pathogenic mutations in breast, colorectal and melanoma genes that significantly increase the risk of developing the cancers.
- The AnteCancerW test is based on the most up-to-date scientific data, which may, however, be supplemented and changed in the future as additional information becomes available. The field of genetics is constantly evolving, which may lead to changes in risk assessments over time, as well as changes in test selection recommendations and clinical recommendations based on test results.
- Different polygenic risk scores predicting risks of the same trait may give different estimates of the individual’s risks due to differences in the genetic variants included in the models and their weights.
- The results of this test should be applied in context with other relevant clinical data. In addition to the possible genetic predisposition, other risk factors also influence the risk of breast, colorectal cancer and melanoma.
