We are the founding member of
GENOMEASIA 100K
an initiative to sequence
3,50,000+ Genomes
in Asia.
We have worked extensively on building clinical databases of
more than
1 Million
patients through collaborations.
We have a repository of clinical, phenotypic and genomics data for
more than
170,000
patients
to provide insights into complex diseases at the genetic and molecular level.
We have access to data that provides insights into genetic diversity of Indian population for
more than
4,500
population groups.

Innovation

Innovation is a core belief and many of our tests have been developed in-ouse including our comprehensive gene panels. We believe in continuous innovation to help reduce the cost of genetic tests and empower clinicians with actionable clinical insights to provide better outcomes. Our liquid biopsy test OncoTrack for monitoring cancer treatment is the only NGS-based ctDNA test available in India.

We hold several IPs that include Clinical Exome, TB testing, Liquid Biopsy, Tumour Mutation Burden, and many such tests developed for various diseases. We have also launched India centric Carrier Screening Test for couples planning a baby. In the Rare Disease segment, we offer Whole Exome, Clinical Exome and TrioExome sequencing test for identifying gene mutations that cause rare diseases.

MedGenome has entered strategic partnerships to provide best in class tests like Non-Invasive Prenatal Test(NIPT), Infectious Diseases and several other companion diagnostics partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies.

Accreditations

As a firm believer in quality, MedGenome adheres to the highest international standards when it comes to our services and have obtained the prestigious CAP accreditation for our main lab in Bangalore.
