Type 1 Diabetes Risk Test

£108.00

Type 1 Diabetes affects around 344,000 people in the UK, and genetics are one of the strongest risk factors for developing the condition. Developed in collaboration with the University of Exeter, the Randox Type 1 Diabetes Risk Test analyses 10 key genetic variants to generate your personalised Type 1 Diabetes Genetic Risk Score. By identifying individuals at increased genetic risk before symptoms develop, the test supports targeted follow-up with Type 1 Diabetes autoantibody testing and clinical monitoring. This enables earlier detection of the disease and, where appropriate, the opportunity for early intervention with treatments such as teplizumab, which may help delay the onset of clinical Type 1 Diabetes.

Why should you test

Understand your inherited risk of developing Type 1 Diabetes with a simple blood test. Our Type 1 Diabetes Risk Test analyses 10 genetic variants to calculate your personalised Genetic Risk Score and determine whether you have a higher or lower genetic risk of developing the condition. Knowing your genetic risk can help identify whether further monitoring through Type 1 Diabetes autoantibody testing may be beneficial, allowing earlier detection of the disease before symptoms develop. By identifying those at increased risk, the Randox Type 1 Diabetes testing pathway supports earlier clinical monitoring, informed healthcare decisions and, where appropriate, access to emerging preventative treatments such as teplizumab that may delay the onset of clinical Type 1 Diabetes.
