FDA clears first DTC genetic test on cancer risk

March 16, 2018—23andMe received the first FDA authorization for a direct-to-consumer genetic test for cancer risk. The authorization allows 23andMe to provide customers, without a prescription, information on three specific BRCA1/BRCA2 breast cancer gene mutations that are most common in people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. These three mutations, however, are not the most common BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations in the general population. The test analyzes DNA collected from a self-collected saliva sample, and the BRCA1/BRCA2 (Selected Variants) Genetic Health Risk Report describes
