Darmkrebs Risiko Test AnteCRC – genetischer Heimtest für Männer und Frauen

What does the colorectal cancer risk test analyze?

The test calculates your genetic risk for colorectal cancer using a polygenic risk score (PRS) that combines the effects of 91 common genetic variants. Unlike rare single-gene mutations, polygenic risk is based on the combination of many genetic factors—so your risk may be elevated even without a family history.

The analysis also takes age, ancestry, and gender into account to create a personalized prevention plan with clinical recommendations.

Result: Genetic counseling will be provided verbally. Alternatively, written counseling is possible if you give explicit consent. Your consent or refusal will be documented.

What does the result mean for you?

  • Your personal risk score compared to the general population
  • Assessment of your likelihood of developing colorectal cancer in the next 10 years.
  • Personalized medical recommendations for early detection and prevention
  • A medical report for you and your treating physician

Important notes

  • This test is not a diagnostic procedure.
  • A high risk does not automatically mean illness – a low risk does not rule it out
  • Rare high-risk mutations (e.g., BRCA1, BRCA2) are not analyzed
  • Based on data from the UK Biobank – CE-certified as an IVD in the EU and the United Kingdom
  • Scientific models can evolve with new research findings

Legal & scientific information

In accordance with the German Genetic Diagnostics Act (GenDG), you will receive all legally required information in writing before and after the test.

  • Before the test: Written information about the purpose, procedure, and possible outcomes
  • After the test: Digital report and personalized prevention plan
  • Optional: Personalized counseling via video consultation (€150) – book here

Conclusion: Detect early. Prevent effectively.

With the AnteCRC Colorectal Cancer Risk Test, you’ll identify your genetic risk early and can take proactive measures. The test gives you peace of mind, clarity, and a scientifically sound basis for your health decisions.

Genetics is one part of risk, lifestyle the other

Polygenic risk scores help plan screening personally

AnteCRC

What is it?

The test calculates a polygenic risk score for bowel cancer from 91 common gene variants. Hereditary syndromes such as Lynch or FAP are not captured.

Who should test

For people who want to decide when and how often to attend bowel cancer screening.

Possible signs

None. Blood in stool, changed bowel habits or weight loss need direct assessment, regardless of genetic risk.

How to read it

The score compares personal risk with the population average. Lifestyle (smoking, alcohol, red meat, exercise) additionally influences risk and can be changed.

Next steps

Plan screening with the result: stool test or colonoscopy, earlier and more often than from age 50 if risk is increased.

General orientation only. This does not replace medical advice or diagnosis.
