Prevalence of comprehensive <scp>DNA</scp> damage repair gene germline mutations in Chinese prostate cancer patients

Abstract excerpt

Germline DNA damage repair (DDR) deficiency has been associated with increased cancer risk, poor prognosis and therapeutic opportunity for prostate cancer (PCa) patients. However, the landscape of germline mutations in PCa covering comprehensive DDR genes has not been reported. We performed whole-exome sequencing in 246 patients who meet the National Cancer Center Network guidelines for genetic testing and...
