BRCAplus is a next generation sequencing (NGS) panel that simultaneously analyzes 8 breast cancer susceptibility genes, all with published management guidelines. Testing to be considered in Early-onset breast cancer patients who are <45 years of age, Triple negative (ER-/PR-/HER2/neu-) breast cancer patients who are <60 years of age, Patients having Ovarian, Fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer at any age or presence of BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation in the family. BRCAplus can detect >99.9% of described mutations in the included genes, when present .
