Cancer - HBOC Screening
Hereditary Breast & Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) Screening Philippines
Go Beyond BRCA And Better Understand Your Family's Cancer Risk
Not all hereditary breast and ovarian cancers are linked to BRCA1 and BRCA2 alone. Some families may carry genetic changes in other cancer-associated genes that can also increase the risk of developing certain cancers. Lablog's Hereditary Breast & Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) Screening is an expanded genetic screening panel designed to evaluate multiple genes associated with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndromes. By understanding your inherited risk earlier, you and your healthcare provider can make more informed decisions about future screening, prevention, and long-term health planning. Using advanced genomic technology and our ISO-certified partner laboratory, Lablog provides accessible and confidential hereditary cancer screening throughout the Philippines.

Who Should Consider HBOC Screening?
HBOC Screening may be suitable if:
Multiple relatives have had breast cancer
Multiple relatives have had ovarian cancer
Family members were diagnosed at a young age
Cancer has occurred across several generations
There are multiple cancer types within your family
You want broader insights beyond BRCA testing
Your healthcare provider recommended expanded screening

What Is HBOC?
What can HBOC screening help assess?
Breast Cancer
One of the most commonly inherited cancers associated with hereditary syndromes.
Ovarian Cancer
Early awareness may help support proactive healthcare planning.
Prostate Cancer
Certain hereditary cancer genes may also increase risk in men.
Pancreatic Cancer
Some inherited syndromes are associated with pancreatic cancer risk.
Additional Hereditary Cancer Risks
Expanded panels may include other clinically significant genes related to hereditary cancers.
More Personalized Screening
Doctors may recommend tailored screening plans.
Why Early Genetic Awareness Matters
Knowing your genetic risk may help support future healthcare decisions.
Knowledge can reduce uncertainty and help guide future decisions. Your genes do not determine your destiny. They provide information that can help you prepare.
Earlier Monitoring
Certain individuals may benefit from earlier surveillance.

Positive Result
BRCA Genetic Test
Focuses on BRCA1 and BRCA2 only. Focused risk assessment. Ideal for straightforward family histories. Entry-level hereditary cancer screening.
Negative Result
HBOC Screening
Evaluates multiple hereditary cancer genes. Expanded risk assessment. Ideal for complex or multiple family histories. Broader hereditary cancer evaluation.
Additional Benefits
What else can early HBOC awareness support?
Family Awareness: results may provide important information for family members
Better Prevention Strategies: long-term health plans can become more personalized
Greater Peace Of Mind: knowledge helps reduce uncertainty
