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]
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]
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
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),

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?
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 ...

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.

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]
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
