Prevalence of <i>BRCA1</i> and <i>BRCA2</i> mutations in Pakistani breast and ovarian cancer patients

22 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

Among Asian countries, Pakistan has the highest rates of breast and ovarian cancer. To assess the contribution of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 germ line mutations to these high rates, we conducted the first study of 176 Pakistani breast and ovarian cancer patients, selected on family history and on age of diagnosis. Comprehensive BRCA mutation screening was performed using a range of techniques, including denaturing...
