GENE is the ticker symbol for Genetic Technologies Ltd, a biotechnology company that develops genetic risk assessment tests for various diseases1. According to Nasdaq, GENE was up 14.29% in pre-market trading as of Nov 01, 20212. One possible reason for this surge is the company’s announcement on Oct 29, 2021, that it had received a patent from the US Patent and Trademark Office for its breast cancer risk test3. This test, called GeneType for Breast Cancer, uses a combination of genetic and clinical factors to estimate a woman’s lifetime risk of developing breast cancer3. The patent is expected to strengthen the company’s intellectual property portfolio and enhance its market position in the US3.
