Living at genetic risk: The patient experience of Lynch syndrome

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome is a germline cancer predisposition syndrome caused by a variant in one of four genes. Lynch syndrome places individuals at significantly higher risk for a range of cancers, especially colorectal and endometrial. Depending on which gene is affected, the risk of ovarian, gastric, small bowel, pancreatic, biliary urothelial, brain,

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.

Colorectal Cancer Screening in Hereditary and Familial High‐Risk Populations: Best Practices and Future Directions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide yet is largely preventable through effective screening and surveillance. While most CRC cases are sporadic, a substantial proportion occur in individuals at increased risk due to hereditary cancer syndromes or family history who require tailored

Tolerability of Adjuvant Nivolumab in Esophageal or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer: A Real‐World Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adjuvant nivolumab is approved for esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and resection. In the CheckMate‐577 trial, Grade 3–5 nivolumab‐related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 5% of patients, with early discontinuation due to toxicity in 9%. However, real‐world data on immunotherapy‐related adverse

Familial Cancers Associated With Cancers of the Breast, Prostate, Colorectum, and Lung in Sweden

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Available epidemiological evidence shows that many cancers share familial risks, and this is increasingly confirmed by data on shared pathogenic germline gene variants between cancers. We decided to harness the world's largest resource on familial cancer to assess discordant familial risks for female breast (BC), prostate (PC), colorectal (CRC)

Shared Genetic Pathways Linking Oral Diseases to Gastrointestinal Disorders: An Integrative Multi‐Omics Study

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
Shared genetics pathways connect oral diseases and gut disorders. ABSTRACT Oral diseases are highly prevalent and increasingly recognized as contributors to gastrointestinal disorders. Despite clinical observations of oral–gut comorbidity, the underlying genetic architecture and causal mechanisms remain poorly understood.
