Approximately 25% of patients have a hereditary component, with 20-25% of those attributed to genetic mutations. These mutations have been identified in several genes including MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, PMS2, PMS1, TGFBR2, APC, CTNNB1 and MUTYH.

Our kit has been devised to assess your DNA using 9 gene set to assess your genetic risk for developing colorectal cancer.
