This approval raises concerns about the clinical standards to which DTC genetic testing will be held. The FDA also plans to exempt other 23andMe genetic health risk (GHR) tests from premarket review and indicated that companies offering similar tests may be able to forgo regulatory review after submitting the first premarket notification. These actions mark a major shift in FDA policy and open the door for broad DTC genetic testing.In 2013, the FDA ordered 23andMe to stop offering genetic screening that claimed ...References1.
