Test Code BAP1Z BAP1-Tumor Predisposition Syndrome, BAP1 Full Gene Analysis, Varies


Ordering Guidance


For a comprehensive hereditary renal cancer gene panel that includes testing for BAP1, consider RENCP / Hereditary Renal Cancer Panel, Varies.

 

Testing for the BAP1 gene as part of a customized panel is available. For more information see CGPH / Custom Gene Panel, Hereditary, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies.

 

Targeted testing for familial variants (also called site-specific or known mutations testing) is available for this gene. For more information see FMTT / Familial Variant, Targeted Testing, Varies. To obtain more information about this testing option, call 800-533-1710.

Useful For

Evaluating patients with a personal or family history suggestive of BAP1-tumor predisposition syndrome (BAP1-TPDS)

 

Establishing a diagnosis of BAP1-TPDS allowing for targeted cancer surveillance based on associated risks

 

Identifying genetic variants associated with increased risk for BAP1-TPDS, allowing for predictive testing and appropriate screening of at-risk family members

Genetics Test Information

This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide and copy number variants in the BAP1 gene associated with BAP1-tumor predisposition syndrome (BAP1-TPDS). See Method Description for additional details.

 

Identification of a disease-causing variant may assist with diagnosis, prognosis, clinical management, familial screening, and genetic counseling for BAP1-TPDS.
