Lung, prostate, colorectal, stomach and liver cancer are the most common types of cancer in men, while breast, colorectal, lung, cervix and thyroid cancer are the most common among women.

ASG Analysis is a Test to ascertain cancer risk in a patient by Genomic Sequencing of the patient DNA.

Cancer genesis is due to multiple factors that cause sequential changes in the normal biochemical processes of the human body. These sequential changes lead to future tumors and cancer. These changes may appear in form of genomic variation and mutations in the DNA of the patient. ASG Analysis is a test to detect and identify such genetic mutations at a very early stage, usually 2-10 years prior to development of actual signs and symptoms of active cancer in the body.

ASG Analysis is a non invasive test done by taking a sample of patient saliva by a Sterile Oral Swab. It is not painful, no punctures are done and no needles are used. It is such a simple method that even the patient himself can take a sample and send to lab for analysis. Once the sample is drawn and labeled, it is sent to Friska Lab, Canada. Friska Lab is an accredited research lab with latest technological advancements and equipments for DNA analysis. At Friska Lab, the sample is analysed by competent personnel for gene mutations. The tests are conducted as per the standards and protocols laid down by ASGenes LLC, for detection of AS01 to AS17 mutant genes which correspond to increased risk of several type of cancer. The test usually takes two weeks to complete. Once the results arrive, a duly marked Test Report is sent to the Patient and Referring Physician.

Any adult can have ASG Analysis to assess his/her cancer risk. Almost 40% of women and 29% of men will get Cancer in their lifetime. One in three women will have breast or cervix cancer and one in four men will have prostate, oral or GI cancer. All individuals above the age of 50 years are therefore advised to get ASG Analysis to assess their cancer risk. ASG Analysis is not done for infants, kids and juvenile under 18 years of age.

As explained in previous answer, all individuals above the age of 50 years are advised to get ASG Analysis to assess their cancer risk. However, patients with family history of cancer, patients who are smokers or consume tobacco or alcohol, people with sedentary lifestyle or diet rich in processed foods, people with low immunity or those with exposure to chemicals, UV rays, pollutants and adulterants, are at a high risk of getting cancer. Such patients are advised to get ASG Analysis at an early age of 30 years or as soon as possible.

We advise to do Analysis to determine your cancer risk. Early detection of cancer will lead to early treatment, less complications, less treatment costs, better prognosis and longevity of patient.

Currently available genetic tests detect either the hereditary mutations or the circulating tumor DNA. These tests are having low predictability of test results. Only 36% of the patients with hereditary mutations will progress to developing cancer while tests detecting CT-DNA have up to 70% false positive results. However, since cancer is caused due to changes in patient’s gene due to autoimmune host response signaling, and ASG Analysis detects only these changes, it is more accurate and precise in predicting the cancer risk for a given patient. In research & studies spanning more than 11 years, ASG Analysis has been found to have 88% sensitivity. That means 88 patients out of 100 patients, detected positive by ASG Analysis, will develop cancer within 10 years from the date of such test, if no medical intervention is availed.

We advise you to plan ASG Analysis as soon as possible to determine your 10 year cancer risk.

No preparation is needed. ASG Analysis can be done at any time of the day, irrespective of food intake, ingestion of any routine medicines, status of menstruation, any prevailing disease or medical condition. The patient merely needs to give a saliva sample on a sterile oral swab.

Patients can call country helpline no to give a missed call. A representative shall call back usually within 48 hours, to detail you about the test, and schedule an appointment for sample pick up. Alternatively, you can buy a sterile oral swab from the market, take saliva sample yourself or with the help of a relative or friend, and send to us along with the filled application form for ASG Analysis.
