myRisk is Identifying Risk for Your Patients
myRisk Hereditary Cancer Panel
Multi-gene panel determines hereditary cancer risk associated with 8 cancer sites:
- Breast
- Ovarian
- Colorectal
- Endometrial
- Melanoma
- Pancreatic
- Gastric
- Prostate
riskScore® Breast Cancer Prediction Tool
Clinically validated to predict both a woman’s 5-year, and remaining lifetime risk of developing breast cancer using genetic markers and clinical risk factors:
- More than 80 well-studied genetic markers linked to breast cancer risk
- Tyrer-Cuzick factors
myRisk Management Tool (MMT)
Test results are accompanied with the MMT which summarizes professional society guidelines for medical management based on patient’s individual results. Interventions are proven to reduce future risk of cancer
The riskScore precision medicine tool is clinically validated to predict a woman’s risk of developing breast cancer using clinical risk factors and genetic-markers. It provides women with their remaining lifetime and 5-year risk for developing breast cancer.
The myRisk test report provides recommendations for managing patients with both positive AND negative genetic results. Every report includes the myRisk Genetic Result and a personalized myRisk Management Tool based on professional medical society guidelines
In the largest validation study of its kind, Myriad estimated analytical sensitivity of greater than 99.92% with 100% concordance on NGS/Sanger parallel sequencing in all genes in the Myriad myRisk panel and 100% concordance on large rearrangement validation.
