Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Tumor-only genomic testing can uncover somatic and germline pathogenic variants [pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP)] in cancer predisposition genes. We describe the prevalence of P/LPs in BRCA1/2 and PALB2 (B1B2P2) across malignancies and the frequency of clinical germline testing (CGT) in patients with P/LPs in B1B2P2 identified on tumor-only testing. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Among 7,575 patients with...
