Abstract Background: BRCA2 variants with partially aberrant RNA splicing have been associated with a relatively lower breast cancer risk (reduced penetrance) relative to canonical pathogenic variants. However, the existence of partial loss of function (hypomorphic) missense variants, conferring reduced penetrance, is less …

Abstract Background Patients with breast cancer (BC) who harbor germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in hereditary cancer genes have improved survival when their surgical and treatment decisions are tailored to their specific genetic alterations. Additionally, the identification of germline PVs is crucial for …

Abstract Background Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) combine information from single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across the genome to explain a substantial portion of genetic breast cancer (BC) susceptibility. In previous studies, a multiple-ancestry PRS (MA-385) based on 56 ancestry-informative and 329 BC-associated SNPs was …

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND: Multiple meta-analyses have suggested that pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing may be a valuable tool to improve clinical outcomes for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have failed at least one treatment. However, these meta-analyses included studies with different PGx tests and …

Abstract Background: Hispanic women in the U.S. have a lower incidence of breast cancer (BC) when compared to non-Hispanic white (NHW) women. However, Hispanic women diagnosed with BC tend to be younger, have more advanced disease at presentation, and have a higher …

10577 Background: Patients with cancer who carry pathogenic variants (PVs) in hereditary cancer genes often have improved outcomes when their treatment is guided by their germline genetics. Identifying germline PVs also allows cascade testing of family members to pursue cancer prevention interventions. …

10513 Background: A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs140068132, located in the 6q25 region near the ESR1 gene, is common in self-reported Hispanic women but rare or absent in other populations. Previous studies have shown that rs140068132 is associated with a significantly reduced risk …

PURPOSE: We previously described a combined risk score (CRS) that integrates a multiple-ancestry polygenic risk score (MA-PRS) with the Tyrer-Cuzick (TC) model to assess breast cancer (BC) risk. Here, we present a longitudinal validation of CRS in a real-world cohort. METHODS: This …

10501 Background: Black women in the U.S. often develop early, biologically aggressive breast cancer (BC). Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a particularly aggressive type that occurs more frequently in Black than white women and often develops before recommended regular screening. More accurate …

10533 Background: Accurate BC risk assessment is essential to identify women for whom screening and preventive interventions may be lifesaving. Incorporation of PRS into clinical models can improve risk prediction, but most PRS have shown suboptimal performance among non-Europeans. We previously described …

Abstract Background: Common genetic variants, mainly single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) explain substantial genetic susceptibility to BC. PRS have been developed to quantify the combined effects of BC-associated SNPs, providing important information about BC risk. Historically, genome-wide association studies have been conducted in predominantly …
