"Prevent a Heart Attack, Before It Starts."
Simple DNA Saliva Test To Uncover Your Inherited Risk For Coronary Artery Disease
Designed for Arab and Middle Eastern populations
What Is A Polygenic Score?
- Everyone has small genetic differences, called variants.
- These variants can affect the risk of developing certain diseases.
- A polygenic risk score (PRS) combines the effects of millions of genetic variants to estimate your disease risk.
- While each variant has a small effect, their combined impact can be significant.

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS TEST?

Adults (18-79 years)
- Seeking personalized strategies for heart disease prevention
- With a family history of coronary artery disease (CAD)
- With limited or unknown family history
- Who developed CAD despite lacking traditional risk factors

Adults (40–79 years)
- With borderline or intermediate risk for heart disease
- Who may benefit from knowing their genetic predisposition

Special Pediatric Group (Ages 10–18)
- With an early family history of CAD
- Diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH)
- Living with obesity, diabetes, chronic illness, or others
- Available upon special request
Why PRS for CAD Matters
The Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) for CAD is a revolutionary genetic test that helps identify your inherited risk of heart disease, even before traditional risk factors like high cholesterol, diabetes, or high blood pressure appear.

Many heart attacks happen with no warning signs. PRS helps you act early.
It detects risk even when traditional factors (like cholesterol or blood pressure) are normal.
Even if you feel healthy today, your genes may carry silent risks that only a PRS can detect.
PRS is not a diagnosis but a powerful tool for personalized prevention.
How It Works - Step By Step

Developed by Avigena (USA) and Novo Genomics (Saudi Arabia), and trusted by top U.S.
institutions, this test is tailored for Middle Eastern and Arab women.
Results are ready in 4 to 8 weeks, giving you time to act early and make informed decisions.
Along with your personalized risk report, eligible patients receive a complimentary virtual
session with an Avigena genetic counselor. We’ll explain your results and help you explore
practical steps to reduce your risk.
