BRCANOW is a next-generation sequencing panel for people with a personal or family history of breast or ovarian cancer.
For hereditary screening, we offer two versions of the BRCANOW test, BRCANOW Basic and BRCANOW Extended, with reflex options available. In addition to BRCA1 & BRCA2, which account for most hereditary breast and ovarian cancers, the BRCANOW Extended panel includes additional genes that are less common but known to be associated with hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. Both versions of the assay utilize next-generation sequencing to detect single- and multi-nucleotide substitutions and small insertions and deletions in coding regions and exon-intron junctions, as well as large genomic rearrangements of the target genes, providing >20X average coverage at the targeted genomic regions of the tested genes.
