Before starting conventional treatments like chemotherapy or radiotherapy, consider taking a crucial first step: Molecular Profiling of your tumor.
This advanced genetic test uncovers the specific gene mutations driving your cancer, offering your oncologist a clearer, more personalized path to treatment. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, molecular profiling helps match you with targeted therapies that are designed to work with your cancer’s unique biology.
First Genomix offers in-house molecular profiling solutions for solid cancers using specialized and highly advanced genomic sequencing technologies, ensuring quick turnaround time and cost-efficiency.
Know your cancer, personalize your treatment, and improve your outcome!

As maternal age increases, the likelihood of chromosomal abnormalities in eggs rises, which can lead to a higher proportion of embryos with an incorrect number of chromosomes (aneuploidy). This can reduce the chances of successful implantation and increase the risk of miscarriage.
To help optimize outcomes for patients of advanced maternal age, First Genomix offers PGT-A (Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy), an advanced screening tool used during IVF to assess the chromosomal status of embryos. By identifying embryos with the correct number of chromosomes (euploid), PGT-A enables clinicians to select those with the highest potential for a healthy pregnancy.
To learn more about PGT-A, contact First Genomix on 04-3443222 or visit our dedicated webpage: https://firstgenomix.ae/service/pgt-a/

If you’ve noticed one or more of these cancers affecting different generations in your family, it may be more than a coincidence.
Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) syndrome is a serious inherited condition caused by mutations in a group of known genes. These disease-causing genetic changes can significantly increase the risk of developing a range of cancers, particularly:
• Breast
• Ovarian
• Prostate
• Colon & Re**al
• Stomach
• Pancreatic

Early awareness can save lives! First Genomix invites you to a complimentary genetic counseling session to help assess your personal risk and determine if you need to undergo genetic testing.
Breaking the chain of hereditary cancers in your family starts with you.

Why is genetic testing crucial during IVF?
Genetic health plays a vital role in embryo quality. Through PGT, we can detect chromosomal abnormalities and genetic mutations that may lead to miscarriage or congenital conditions. This means:
• Higher chances of IVF success
• Reduced risk of inherited disorders
• Healthier pregnancies and babies
