Hereditary Breast6 Cancer Panel
INDICATIONS FOR TESTING
DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
Breast6 Cancer Panel analyzes six genes for genetic variants that predispose
a person to breast cancer and, in some cases, other cancers or noncancerous
conditions. Identifying causative genetic variants in any of the genes included in
this panel provides medically actionable results (treatment and/or risk reduction)
and allows for targeted familial screening. Up to 10% of women affected by breast
1
cancer have an inherited genetic syndrome.
The inheritance of hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes is typically
autosomal dominant, meaning that all individuals who inherit the mutation will be
at risk for developing cancer. However, the exact risk and cancer type is dependent
on the gene and mutation involved. Additionally, the age at which an individual
develops cancer and the site of cancer diagnoses may vary within a family.
INCIDENCE
In the general population, approximately 1 in 300 and 1 in 800 individuals have
BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, respectively. These mutations are more frequently
observed in individuals of certain ethnicities; for example, 1 in 40 individuals in the
Ashkenazi Jewish population harbor a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation.
The frequency of
1
mutations in TP53, PTEN, STK11, and CDH1 are more rare.

INCIDENCE
• Known familial variant in any of the genes

DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
BreastIOvarianIUterine26 Cancer Panel analyzes 26 genes for genetic variants
that predispose a person to breast, ovarian, and uterine (endometrial) cancer and,
in some cases, other cancers or noncancerous conditions. Identifying a causative
genetic variant provides valuable information for the patient’s diagnosis, treatment
and risk reduction options, surveillance (early screening for other associated
cancers), and familial screening.
The inheritance of hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes is typically
autosomal dominant, meaning that all individuals who inherit the mutation will be
at risk for developing cancer. However, the exact risk and cancer type is dependent
on the gene and mutation involved. Additionally, the age at which an individual
develops cancer and the site of cancer diagnoses may vary within a family.
Breast cancer affects about 1 in 8 women, while ovarian and uterine (endometrial)
cancers affect approximately 1 in 71 and 1 in 38 women, respectively.1 A
detectable, inherited familial mutation is present in approximately 5-15% of women
with these types of tumors.2 While BRCA1 and BRCA2 are most commonly involved,
inclusion of the rarer, high-risk genes markedly increases the number of families
with an identifiable genetic cause.
GENES INCLUDED IN THIS PANEL
-- Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome
-- Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer
-- Li-Fraumeni syndrome
-- Lynch syndrome
-- MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP)

new cancers annually. Inherited, single gene causes are identified in 5-10% of
colorectal cancers.1

Hereditary
Endocrine Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma17
Cancer Panel
INDICATIONS FOR TESTING
•Family history of paraganglioma,
pheochromocytoma, or other neuroendocrine
tumors, which may include tumors of the
thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary gland, lung,
pancreas, kidney, and/or gastrointestinal tract
(e.g., gastrointestinal stromal tumors [GIST])
•Neuroendocrine tumor with a second primary
lesion
•Personal and/or family history of
-- Sympathetic or malignant extra-adrenal
paragangliomas
-- Bilateral or multifocal paragangliomas or
pheochromocytomas
-- Paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma
DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
EndocrineIParaganglioma-Pheochromacytoma17 Cancer Panel analyzes 17 genes
for genetic variants that predispose a person to paragangliomas (PGLs), including
pheochromocytomas (PCCs), and other neuroendocrine tumors. Many neuroendocrine
tumors are benign, localized, and sporadic; however, they may also be part of a
hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome and may increase the patient’s risk for
other medical conditions, such as hypertension and stroke.1-4 Individuals with hereditary
neuroendocrine tumors are more likely to present earlier, to have multifocal or bilateral
disease, and to experience recurrence and metastisis.4-5 Identifying a causative genetic
variant provides valuable information for the patient’s diagnosis, medical management,
malignancy potential, surveillance (early screening for other associated tumors), and
familial screening.
INHERITANCE
The inheritance of hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes is typically autosomal
dominant, meaning that all individuals who inherit the mutation will be at risk for
developing cancer. However, the exact risk and cancer type is dependent on the gene
and mutation involved. Additionally, the age at which an individual develops cancer
and the site of cancer diagnoses may vary within a family.
INCIDENCE
The incidence of neuroendocrine tumors is reported to be 5.25 cases per 100,000 people
and is currently thought to be rising in the United States.8 An underlying genetic cause
has been identified in greater than 25% of patients with neuroendocrine tumors.1-2,4,6-7,9

Hereditary Neuro17 Cancer Panel
INDICATIONS FOR TESTING
•Personal and/or family history of
-- Brain tumor(s)
-- Central nervous system (CNS) tumor(s)
-- Peripheral nervous system (PNS) tumor(s)
•Brain or CNS tumor associated with multiple
genetic conditions, such as ependymoma,
glioblastoma, meningioma, and
medulloblastoma
•Personal and/or family history raising concer
for the syndromes included in this panel
DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
Neuro17 Cancer Panel analyzes 17 genes for genetic variants that confer an
increased risk of developing a brain tumor and, in some cases, other cancers and
noncancerous conditions. Identifying a causative genetic variant provides valuable
information for the patient’s diagnosis, medical management, surveillance (early
screening for other associated cancers), and familial screening.
-- Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP)
-- Nevoid basal cell carcinoma (Gorlin) syndrome
-- Li-Fraumeni syndrome
-- Lynch syndrome
-- Neurofibromatosis type I and II (NF1 and NF2)
-- PTEN hamartoma tumor (Cowden) syndrome
-- Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC)
-- von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL)
• Known familial variant in any of the genes
included in this panel (targeted analysis)
INHERITANCE
The inheritance of hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes is typically
autosomal dominant, meaning that all individuals who inherit the mutation will
be at risk for developing cancer. Many of the genes on the Neuro19 Cancer Panel
have high de novo rates and, therefore, family history may be negative despite
a person’s genetic predisposition. The exact risk and cancer type is dependent
on the gene and mutation involved. Additionally, the age at which an individual
develops cancer and the site of cancer diagnoses may vary within a family.
INCIDENCE
In the United States, approximately 24,600 individuals per year are diagnosed with
a malignant brain tumor.1 Approximately 5% of patients with brain cancers have an
identifiable underlying genetic cause.2
METHODS
This hereditary cancer panel utilizes next
generation sequencing for the identification
of sequence-based variants and a
customized oligonucleotide array for the
identification of deletions/duplications in the
genes included in this panel.

DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
Pancreatic14 Cancer Panel analyzes 14 genes for genetic variants that predispose

•Family history of renal cancer in multiple
individuals
•Renal cancer diagnosed < age 45
•Multifocal or bilateral renal cancer
•Multiple primary cancers in the same
person which may include the skin, brain,
heart, lungs, pancreas, colon, paraganglioma,

DESCRIPTION
Using sequencing and high resolution deletion/duplication analysis, the Hereditary
Renal19 Cancer Panel analyzes 19 genes for genetic variants that predispose
a person to renal cancer and, in some cases, other cancers or noncancerous
conditions. Identifying a causative genetic variant provides valuable information
for the patient’s diagnosis, medical management, surveillance (early screening for
other associated cancers), and familial screening. Affected individuals often warrant
increased surveillance due to earlier onset of disease and have an increased
potential for complex medical issues such as bilateral kidney involvement.
