At Codex Labs, we are following all current advice provided by the Egyptian Government, local health authorities and the World Health Organization (WHO), and taking extra precautionary steps to ensure the health and safety of our laboratory staff and customer service team to minimize any disruption to testing.

We understand that the healthcare system is stretched, and as such some patients may feel isolated and not sure of where to turn. We are not directly involved with COVID-19 testing, thus able to continue our core business – which is providing state-of-the art diagnostic testing for both newly diagnosed cancer patients or patients that are dealing with a recurrence.

We also understand that for many of our patients and their family and friends, we understand that you may be wondering how best to protect yourself during this time. Codex Labs is pleased to be able to supply our patients with Care Packs, containing surgical grade masks and gloves.

Please be advised our laboratory is still operational, and we are currently not experiencing any delays with processing of samples.

We have many tests available, some which can be used to track your progress using a simple blood draw as well as monitor your immune system both during and after treatment. We have access to a group of oncologists that can help interpret results for you via tele-health consultations. We also have access to integrative medicine specialists who can assist with your navigation through the health maze. For patients located in Cairo, we can also help arrange home visits for collection of your blood sample for testing.

Please call us on +201001413179 for more information on how we can help.

Pharmacogenomics (Drug Response)

The Pharmacogenomics test is your one test for life. The test will cover your metabolic response to medications at all stages in life, and can be referred back to at any time regardless of your age or health status. Pharmacogenomics is the analysis of how genes affect a person’s response to drugs. As everyone has a unique genetic makeup, this can affect how you will respond or react to certain medications. Through pharmacogenomics testing, individualised medicine treatment plans can be developed based on each patient’s genetic makeup, to determine optimal drugs and dosages, and limit harmful side effects.
