About this test

Everything you need to know about Extended Cancer Risk

Where a family history includes several different cancers, or a cancer that does not fit a single pattern, a single-cancer gene test can miss the explanation. The Extended Cancer Risk panel looks across a broad range of genes linked to hereditary cancer syndromes at once — including the BRCA genes, the Lynch syndrome genes, APC and MUTYH, TP53, PALB2, CHEK2 and ATM, and genes associated with endocrine, kidney and skin cancer syndromes.

A genetic test looks at the DNA you were born with. It tells you about inherited likelihood, not certainty: a variant can raise your risk without meaning you will develop the condition, and a clear result does not remove the everyday risk everyone carries. Results are explained to you by our clinical team, and we will say when a conversation with your GP or a genetics service is the right next step. Because the findings can affect relatives as well as you, every result from this panel is discussed with you in detail, and we support you in deciding what to share and how.

What's included

The full panel contents are confirmed with you before the test. Call 020 3621 0294 if you would like the list in advance.

Who it's for

Worth considering if

  • Several relatives with different cancers, or cancers at a young age
  • A known inherited cancer syndrome in the family where the exact gene is not known
  • A single-gene test that came back clear but a strong family history remains
  • Men wanting a comprehensive inherited-risk review in one test
Important: A genetic test describes inherited likelihood, not certainty, and is not suitable for everyone. Our clinical team talks it through with you before the sample is taken and explains the result afterwards, including when a conversation with your GP or a genetics service is the right next step.

Frequently Asked

Extended Cancer Risk — FAQs

How does this differ from the Prostate or Bowel Cancer Risk tests?
Those focus on the genes for one cancer type. This panel covers a much broader set of hereditary cancer genes, so it suits a family history that spans several cancers or is not clearly one type.
Will it tell me if I have cancer now?
No. It is a test of inherited risk, not of current disease. Any symptoms you have should be seen by your GP without waiting for a genetic result.
What is the chance of finding a variant?
In most people, nothing significant is found. A result is more likely to be positive when there is a strong family history, which is why we ask you to gather as much of it as you can.
What happens if a variant is found?
Our clinician explains what it means and recommends referral through your GP to a clinical genetics service, which can confirm the finding, advise on surveillance or risk-reducing options, and offer testing to relatives.
How long do results take?
A panel of this size takes longer than other tests. We give you the expected turnaround at your appointment and arrange a results conversation once the report is back.
Where is the test done?
44 Crawford Street, London W1H 1JS — a short walk from Marylebone and Edgware Road stations. Your sample is taken at the clinic by our clinical team; you do not need to bring anything.
How long does the appointment take?
About 15 minutes. If you have booked several tests they are all done in the same visit.
Can I book several tests at once?
Yes. Use “Add to booking” on each test and then “Book” in the bar at the bottom — they go into one appointment and one payment. Home test kits are ordered separately, because they are posted to you.
How do I pay, and can I cancel?
Pay online when you book — by card or bank transfer — or at the clinic where that option is offered. You can cancel or reschedule up to 24 hours before your appointment for a full refund.
How do I get my results?
Results are released to your secure account and explained by our clinical team in a written summary, with a call where something needs talking through. Turnaround depends on the test: routine blood panels are quicker than genetic or DNA analysis, and we tell you what to expect at your appointment.
