Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The frequency of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) incidence varies among different populations suggesting the involvement of genetic components towards TNBC development. Previous studies have reported that BRCA1/2 germline mutations confer a lifetime risk of developing TNBC. However, there is hardly any information regarding the common pathogenic variants (PVs) in BRCA1/2 genes that contribute to...
