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.

Attitudes Toward Updated Genetic Testing Among Patients with Unexplained Mismatch Repair Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Individuals who have colorectal cancer (CRC) or endometrial cancer (EC) displaying loss of immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of one or more mismatch repair (MMR) proteins without a causative germline mutation are said to have unexplained mismatch repair

Evaluation of current prediction models for Lynch syndrome: updating the PREMM5 model to identify PMS2 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Until recently, no prediction models for Lynch syndrome (LS) had been validated for PMS2 mutation carriers. We aimed to evaluate MMRpredict and PREMM5 in a clinical cohort and for PMS2 mutation carriers specifically.

Cancer Risks for Msh6 Pathogenic Variant Carriers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cancer
Abstract Introduction Lynch syndrome (LS) is a hereditary cancer syndrome caused by (likely) pathogenic variants (LP/P) in DNA mismatch repair genes, including MSH6 . It is associated with elevated lifetime risks for colorectal cancer (CRC),

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.

Do all colorectal mucinous adenocarcinomas arise via the serrated neoplasia pathway?

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Colorectal mucinous adenocarcinomas (MACs) and serrated adenocarcinomas (SACs) demonstrate considerable overlap in morphological and molecular features, suggesting a spectrum rather than two distinct tumour types. This study investigates the presence of serrated morphological features, precursors, and molecular features in a large cohort of ...

Prognostic Impact of Histologic Subtypes in Mismatch Repair‐Deficient/Microsatellite Instability‐High Colorectal Cancer: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study of 1127 Stage 0–IV Patients

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 760-769, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Deficient mismatch repair/microsatellite instability‐High (dMMR/MSI‐H) colorectal cancer (CRC) generally confers a favorable survival yet is paradoxically enriched for poorly differentiated (Por) histology, which is linked to aggressive behavior.

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

Genetic variation in genes interacting with BRCA1/2 and risk of breast cancer in Cypriot population. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Inability to correctly repair DNA damage is known to play a role in the development of breast cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of DNA repair genes have been identified, which modify the DNA repair capacity, which in turn may affect the risk
