Ataraxis Breast RISK
About this test
Ataraxis® Breast RISK is a comprehensive breast cancer recurrence risk test.
Ataraxis Breast RISK is the first clinically validated prognostic test based entirely on artificial intelligence (AI), intended for patients with invasive breast cancer at stages I–III. It uses multidimensional AI to analyse H&E-stained slides and clinical data to predict treatment outcomes and support personalised therapeutic decisions across all breast cancer subtypes.
The test material is an H&E slide (preparation) from a biopsy or surgery. A copy of the histopathology report must be delivered to the laboratory together with the material.
When ordering the test, use the code: ATARAXIS

Frequently asked questions
Who is this test for?
Ataraxis Breast RISK assesses the risk of recurrence in patients with stage I–III invasive breast cancer, regardless of molecular subtype: the test applies both to tumours with hormone receptor expression (HR+) and without it (HR-), both HER2-positive and HER2-negative, including triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC).
How long does the Ataraxis Breast RISK test take?
The result is usually available within 10 working days from sample registration in laboratory.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can order this genetic test online without a referral.
How much does the test cost?
The price of the test is 920 EUR.
Which Ataraxis test should I choose?
The right test depends on the moment of treatment and the molecular subtype of the tumour.
Ataraxis Breast RISK assesses the risk of recurrence in patients with stage I–III invasive breast cancer, regardless of molecular subtype. It answers the question of how high the risk of disease recurrence is within 5 years.
Ataraxis Breast CTX assesses the individual benefit of adding adjuvant chemotherapy to hormone therapy. It is intended exclusively for tumours with hormone receptor expression and without HER2 overexpression (HR+ HER2-), and therefore does not apply to HER2-positive or triple-negative cancers. It answers the question of whether chemotherapy is worth adding to hormone therapy.
Ataraxis Breast NEO assesses the probability of achieving a pathological complete response (pCR) after preoperative treatment, regardless of molecular subtype, lymph node involvement and menopausal status. It is performed on a core-needle biopsy specimen taken at diagnosis, i.e. before surgery. It answers the question of whether treatment preceding surgery has a chance of completely eradicating the tumour.
If your tumour belongs to the HR+ HER2- subtype, the Breast CTX test should be ordered. The same risk of recurrence does not mean the same benefit from chemotherapy; about one quarter of patients classified as high risk derive little benefit from chemotherapy.
Which test is appropriate in a given situation is decided by the treating physician based on disease stage, tumour receptor status and the planned treatment. The test result does not replace medical advice.
