Polygenic susceptibility to prostate and breast cancer: implications for personalised screening.

British journal of cancer - 10 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: We modelled the efficiency of a personalised approach to screening for prostate and breast cancer based on age and polygenic risk-profile compared with the standard approach based on age alone. METHODS: We compared the number of cases potentially detectable by screening in a population undergoing personalised screening with a population undergoing screening based on age alone. Polygenic disease risk...
