Hereditary Cancer (PreSENTIA)
What is cancer?
Cancer is the rapid and uncontrollable growth of abnormal cells. It is the second leading cause of death, responsible for 1 out of 6 deaths globally. World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended that cancer mortality can be significantly reduced by early detection and proper clinical management of cancers.
How does cancer develop?
Cancer develops after certain genes that are responsible for keeping our body healthy are changed (mutated). Cancer can be:
• Sporadic: Mutations in the genes causing cancer to accumulate over time due to risk factors like chemical and environmental factors. These mutations cannot be inherited.
• Hereditary: These mutations exist from birth. They run in families and can be passed down from parents to their children. They do not always develop into cancer – but they raise someone's chances of developing cancer in the future. Inherited genetic mutations make up for 5-10% of all cancers.
If you or a family member were diagnosed with hereditary cancer or a genetic change that is linked to cancer, there’s a high chance other members of your family carry the mutation as well.

What is PreSENTIA and how it can help you prevent cancer?
PreSENTIA is an extensive portfolio of 19 hereditary cancer panels. Each panel focuses on a particular set of genes that determine your chances of developing cancer in the future. The genetic changes (mutations) in the genes that cause cancer can be inherited from parents to their children. Using specialised diagnosis at an early stage is essential to prevent and control the cancer.
