Carrier Screening
Carrier screening provides couples with information on their risk of having a child affected by one or more of a large range of genetic conditions. GeneAware™ is a comprehensive universal carrier screening panel that screens for genetic variations in 400+ genes known to be associated with genetic disorders, such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
Carrier screening is recommended for all reproductive-aged women who are pregnant or planning to get pregnant.

Covered in the panel are sequenced at >20x
Benefits of testing
- Understand your patient’s disease carrier status
- Plan their pregnancy via Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing with IVF
- Pursue alternative options such as using a sperm or egg donor or adoption
- Have prenatal diagnosis during pregnancy
- Arrange specialist care during pregnancy and delivery if necessary
- Prepare for management and, if available, treatment of an affected child
Hereditary Cancer Testing
Approximately 1 in 6 people in Southeast Asia will be affected by cancer during their lifetimes 1. Hereditary cancers make up 5-10% 2 of cancer cases and are caused by inherited pathogenic germline mutations in one or more genes.
Hereditary cancer testing is key to identifying patients and families who may be at increased risk of developing certain types of cancer for early detection and prevention 3,4.
Percentage of cancer patients with germline mutations 5

Recent research revealed that the high germline-positive rate (pathogenic germline variants) was detected as >30% in a large, diverse cancer patient population (n=2,023)5.
Indications for testing
Patients with more than 1 primary cancers
Patients with rare cancers at any age
3 or more close family members diagnosed with cancer
Age of cancers diagnosed for close family members is younger than 50
History of cancer which has a high incidence in the individuals ethnic group
Individuals with previous targeted genetic testing who may benefit from an extended panel

Whole Genome Sequencing
Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) is an analysis of a patient’s entire nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Compared to gene panels which only examine specific changes in a small subset of DNA, WGS can capture virtually all disease-causing genetic variations in both coding and non-coding regions, making it the most comprehensive germline genetic testing.
It is suitable for patients who have a broad spectrum of phenotypic features without an obvious clinical diagnosis.

Indications for testing
Intellectual disability
Autism spectrum disorders
Differential diagnosis
Development delays
Multiple congenital anomalies
Failure to thrive
Patients with extensive disease
Dysmorphic features
Epilepsy syndromes
Neuro- developmental disorders
