Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer familial risk clinics offer screening and preventive strategies. While BRCA1/BRCA2 genetic testing provides important risk information for some women, panels of more common breast cancer risk genetic variants may have relevance to greater numbers of women with familial risk. METHODS: Three polygenic risk scores (PRS) based on 18 SNPs were investigated in a case-control study of women...
