Socioeconomic and Demographic Factors in Genetic Testing Utilization Among Advanced Prostate Cancer Patients

open access: yesThe Prostate, Volume 86, Issue 8, Page 941-948, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Germline genetic testing in patients with advanced prostate cancer (PCa) is underutilized and hypothesized to be impacted by socioeconomic and demographic factors. This single institution, retrospective study assessed the association of income and social vulnerability with genetic referrals and testing.

The FANCM:p.Arg658* truncating variant is associated with risk of triple-negative breast cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Breast cancer is a common disease partially caused by genetic risk factors. Germline pathogenic variants in DNA repair genes BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM, and CHEK2 are associated with breast cancer risk.

Germline genetic testing among patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A Pancreatic Cancer Action Network patient survey

open access: yesCancer, Volume 132, Issue 10, 15 May 2026.
Abstract Background Approximately 10%–15% of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) harbor pathogenic germline genetic alterations with direct therapeutic and hereditary cancer implications, leading to guideline recommendations for universal germline genetic testing regardless of family history.

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 5, Page 1364-1378, May 2026.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Pancancer Fine‐Mapping of Mutational Intolerance Identifies CHEK1 as an Immunosuppressive Driver in Lung Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
This study identifies mutation‐intolerant genes (MIGs), which are mutationally constrained in tumors despite normal‐tissue variability. Using miDriver, the authors pinpoint MIGs essential for tumor‐intrinsic fitness and immune evasion. Focusing on CHEK1, they show it drives tumor fitness and sculpts an immunosuppressive niche via the MIF–CD74 axis ...

Single Cell RNA Transcriptomics of Mantle Cell Lymphoma Reveals the Presence of Treatment‐Resistant Subclones at the Time of Diagnosis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 1025-1035, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a B‐cell malignancy with a chronically relapsing clinical course and pronounced genetic heterogeneity. To investigate the clonal dynamics underlying early disease relapse, we performed single‐cell RNA sequencing of paired tumor samples collected at diagnosis and at first relapse. Inference of copy number variants (

Integrated Molecular Profiling Improves Subtype Classification and Reveals Inherited Susceptibility in Medulloblastoma: Insights From a Real‐World Cohort

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Medulloblastoma (MB) is a heterogeneous pediatric brain tumor characterized by distinct molecular subtypes. Although genomics and transcriptomics have improved subtype classification and informed targeted therapies, the clinical utility of integrated molecular profiling in real‐world settings remains incompletely defined.

Germline Pathogenic Variants in HER2‐Positive Breast Cancer: Spectrum and Clinical Implications in a High‐Risk Chinese Cohort

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary cancer risk assessment has predominantly focused on HER2‐negative breast cancer (BC), with limited characterization of germline pathogenic variants (GPVs) in HER2‐positive disease. This study aimed to delineate the prevalence, clinicopathological correlates, and clinical implications of GPVs in a cohort of HER2‐positive BC

Advanced Gastric Cancer Presenting as a Giant Subepithelial Lesion: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
A giant subepithelial lesion. ABSTRACT Gastric cancer may occasionally present with a subepithelial lesion‐like appearance. When a gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is suspected preoperatively without definitive pathological confirmation, intraoperative frozen section analysis is recommended to prevent inappropriate surgical intervention.
