There were 37,953 new cancer incidence cases a year in Hong Kong, representing an average of 104 new cases daily. The top 6 most common cancers, lung, breast, colorectum, prostate, liver and corpus uteri, accounted for over 60% of all cancers. (according to the HK Cancer Registry 2023 data1). Some of them might show no symptoms in the early stages, earlier detection is associated with better survival2.
Multi-cancer Early Screening (Genetic Testing)
The plans’ coverage ranges from 6 types of cancers that have a high incidence or mortality rate in Hong Kong, to men and women essential cancers, to a comprehensive screening of 50 cancers. The plans also couple with BMI, metabolic syndrome (“3 highs”), liver, renal and thyroid function blood tests, to provide an overview of health condition and essential cancer risks.
Individuals aged 40+ or elevated cancer risk (family history, diet habits, lifestyle), and those who wish to proactively screen for early detection of multiple cancers

The genetic testing utilises Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. With a single blood draw, it detects and analyses circulating tumour nucleic acids released from cancer cells, achieving 88% accuracy in tumour localisation and up to 99% specificity, effectively reducing false-positives.
A World Health Organization report indicates that obesity is a contributing factor to 13 types of cancer4. Studies consistently show that diabetes and certain metabolic abnormalities associated with “the three highs” (high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol) generally increase the risk of developing certain cancers. Therefore, these plans specifically include testing for these related indicators, allowing you to understand your health status early on and improve weight and blood glucose management, thereby helping to control health risks.
