Bengaluru-based startup GenWorks Health has announced a strategic partnership with Karkinos Healthcare, based in Mumbai, to promote women health and support.

 

The partnership will encourage the adoption of the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) recommended Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) DNA test for early detection of cervical cancer among women followed by standard diagnosis and treatment. 

 

Together, Karkinos Healthcare and GenWorks will provide primary screening through HPV DNA tests, and confirmatory diagnoses through colposcopy at the clinics and hospitals of the partner gynaecologists. Women may avail these services in their cities at the clinics and hospitals within the Karkinos-GenWorks network. 

 

The tests would be made available to all women between the ages of 30 and 65 years, across India. The collaboration will aim to provide services in every town in India, to eliminate cervical cancer.
