In the 33 years since the first diagnostic cancer predisposition gene (CPG) tests in the Manchester Centre for Genomic Medicine, there has been substantial changes in the identification of index cases and cascade testing for at-risk family members. National guidelines in England and Wales are usually determined from the National Institute of healthcare Evidence and these have impacted on the thresholds

Familial pancreatic cancer: a long fruitful journey Fam. Cancer (IF 2.2) Pub Date : 2024-03-04 Teresa A Brentnall
In the early years of my GI fellowship, a healthy 40-year-old man came to my clinic and announced that he was going to die of pancreatic cancer. His brothers, father and uncles had all died of the disease; he felt his fate was inescapable. I asked whether his family members had seen doctors or had any tests. His answer was yes to both. Even so, doctors could not diagnose the pancreatic cancer at early

Lynch syndrome (LS) increases the risk of numerous different cancers including gastric cancer. While some current guidelines recommend empiric gastric biopsies be performed during upper gastrointestinal cancer surveillance in Lynch syndrome (LS), the yield of these biopsies and the prevalence of gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) and Helicobacter pylori (HP) in LS remains unknown.

Breast density in NF1 women: a retrospective study Fam. Cancer (IF 2.2) Pub Date : 2024-01-25
Abstract Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant condition caused by neurofibromin haploinsufficiency due to pathogenic variants in the NF1 gene. Tumor predisposition has long been associated with NF1, and an increased breast cancer (BC) incidence and reduced survival have been reported in recent years for women with NF1. As breast density is another known independent risk factor for

Current algorithms for diagnosing Lynch syndrome (LS) include multistep molecular tumor tests to distinguish LS-associated from sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC), which add cost and complexity to the evaluation. We hypothesized that PREMM5, a clinical LS prediction tool, could be an alternative approach to screen for LS, thereby lessening the need for specialized molecular diagnostics. We reviewed a

Multiple primary tumors (MPTs) are a harbinger of hereditary cancer syndromes. Affected individuals often fit genetic testing criteria for a number of hereditary cancer genes and undergo multigene panel testing. Other genomic testing options, such as whole exome (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS) are available, but the utility of these genomic approaches as a second-tier test for those with uninformative

Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) populations with hereditary cancer syndromes face unique obstacles to identifying and obtaining appropriate cancer surveillance and risk-reducing procedures. There is a lack of care provider knowledge about TGD health management. Lynch syndrome (LS) is one of the most common hereditary cancer syndromes, affecting an estimated 1 in 279 individuals. There are no clinical

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant syndrome predisposing affected individuals to gastrointestinal (GI) cancers through a high burden of polyposis. Colorectal cancer rates reach 100% by the age of 45, making early colectomy a mainstay of treatment. While most patients undergo colectomy at an early age, ongoing screening and surveillance of the upper gastrointestinal tract

Hematologic toxicities of chemotherapy in breast and ovarian cancer patients carrying BRCA1/BRCA2 germline pathogenic variants. A single center experience and review of the literature Fam.

BRCA1 and BRCA2 play a central role in DNA repair and their germline pathogenic variants (gBRCA) confer a high risk for developing breast and ovarian cancer. Standard chemotherapy regimens for these cancers include DNA-damaging agents. We hypothesized that gBRCA carriers might be at higher risk of developing chemotherapy-related hematologic toxicity and therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN). We

Perspectives on the implications of carrying putative pathogenic variants in the medulloblastoma predisposition genes ELP1 and GPR161 Fam. Cancer (IF 2.2) Pub Date : 2023-03-24 Miriam J Smith, Emma R Woodward, D Gareth Evans
Recent genetic sequencing studies in large series’ of predominantly childhood medulloblastoma have implicated loss-of-function, predominantly truncating, variants in the ELP1 and GPR161 genes in causation of the MBSHH subtype specifically. The latter association, along with a report of an index case with some features of Gorlin syndrome has led to speculation that GPR161 may also cause Gorlin syndrome

DNA methylation marks that are inherited from parents to offspring are known to play a role in cancer risk and could explain part of the familial risk for cancer. We therefore conducted a genome-wide search for heritable methylation marks associated with prostate cancer risk. Peripheral blood DNA methylation was measured for 133 of the 469 members of 25 multiple-case prostate cancer families, using

CHEK2 is a well-established breast cancer susceptibility gene. The most frequent pathogenic CHEK2 variant is 1100delC, a loss-of-function mutation conferring 2-fold risk for breast cancer. This gene also harbors other rare variants encountered in the clinical gene panels for hereditary cancer. One of these is CHEK2 c.1312 G > T, p.(Asp438Tyr) in the kinase domain of the protein, but due to its rarity
