Abstract:
e13131 Background: Targeted tumor-only somatic sequencing informs therapies and is becoming a routine part of cancer care. It also identifies patients with possible germline variants who require confirmatory genetic testing. The aim was to identify patients with suspected and confirmed germline variants whose GI tumors underwent somatic sequencing. Methods: 864 patients with GI tumors who had Foundation One (FO) somatic sequencing from 4/2003-3/2018 were evaluated. Inclusion criteria for suspected germline variants were: a) allele frequency ≥ 35% in hereditary cancer genes and b) pathogenic va

Abstract:
Accumulating evidence suggests that inherited melanoma is not rare and approx. one in seven individuals with melanoma has clinically relevant hereditable cancer-predisposing and/or -susceptibility variant(s). Concerning its germline genetic background, genetic screening aims to identify either variants of predisposing genes with high penetrance or variants of susceptibility genes with medium or low penetrance. However, less attention is paid to genetic testing of germline variants of genes influencing patients’ survival outcomes or enhancing the design of new therapies. We aimed to investigate

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of hereditary cancer syndromes (HCS) in patients with a diagnosis of two primary breast carcinomas and analyze the frequency of pathogenic variants in high- and moderatepenetrance genes. Methodology: This is a retrospective unicentric cohort study on patients with a diagnosis of two primary breast cancers, diagnosed between January 2000 to December 2020, at A.C. Camargo Cancer Center, Brazil. The association between categorical variables was analyzed by the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. For survival curves, the Kapla
