Why choose Horizon?

It is common for people to be carriers of at least one genetic condition. Carriers are usually healthy; however, they risk passing on a genetic condition to their children. Horizon carrier screening is a type of genetic test that allows you to determine your risk for passing an inherited genetic condition onto your child.

Most people do not know they are a carrier for an inherited genetic disease until they have a child with the condition. Everyone can be a carrier of a genetic condition regardless of ethnicity, family background, or family history.

Genetic carrier screening performed at a DNA testing center or genetics center can help you and your partner learn if you are likely to pass a genetic condition to your child, before or even during pregnancy. With Horizon genetic carrier screening, you screen for one or many genetic diseases in one simple test. Before undergoing carrier screening, it may be helpful to learn more about genetics and inheritance of diseases.

Using the latest technologies, including next-generation sequencing, Horizon screens for up to 274 genetic conditions, including commonly screened conditions such as cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, fragile X syndrome, and sickle cell anemia.

Advanced technology and unmatched support make Horizon unique among DNA screening tests. The test is easy to take. Results are presented clearly, directly, and can pave the way to critical action steps.

Comprehensive, actionable carrier screening.

All of us are carriers of at least one genetic condition. Most have no family history of the genetic condition they carry or understanding of how that condition could impact their child.

Carrier screening is a type of test that allows you to determine your risk for passing an inherited genetic condition onto your child. When performed before conceiving, genetic carrier screening provides you with actionable knowledge and the opportunity to pursue alternative reproductive options.

Carrier screening during pregnancy (prenatal carrier screening) can also have life-altering benefits: It can help couples decide on diagnostic testing, and if necessary, help them prepare emotionally, medically, and financially for a baby affected by a genetic condition.

cfDNA screening for skeletal, cardiac, and neurological disorders

Vistara identifes risk for single-gene disorders that may have otherwise gone undetected prenatally:

• Ultrasound fndings are not a reliable indicator

• Conditions are not detected with standard microarray analysis

• Family history is typically not a good indicator of risk

• Early identifcation of these conditions is clinically actionable.

VISTARA NIPT test screens non-invasively for

• Noonan syndrome

• Osteogenesis imperfecta

• Rett syndrome

• Achondroplasia

and other serious genetic conditions caused by single-gene mutations across 30 genes.

Conditions screened by VISTARA have a combined incidence of 1 in 600 – higher than that of Down syndrome.

All conditions screened meet at least one of the following criteria:

• Cause cognitive disability

• Require surgical or medical intervention

• Affect quality of life.

The single-gene disorders screened by Vistara are usually not inherited or related to family history

• Typically caused by new, or “de novo,” genetic changes (variants)

• May occur more frequently as the age of the father increases

• Are not related to the age of the mother

• Are autosomal or X-linked dominant – if the variant is present, the child is expected to be affected by the condition and experience related symptoms.

The PanoramaTM prenatal screen is a DNA screening test. Panorama provides you with information about the chance that your baby has certain genetic conditions.

Panorama is the only NIPT that can tell the difference between the mother’s and the baby’s DNA, which results in fewer false positives and fewer false negatives.
