Possible impact of HLA class I and class II on malignancies driven by a single germ-line BRCA1 mutation.

Abstract excerpt

This study provides the first immunogenetic preliminary evidence that specific human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class I and class II alleles and haplotypes may be relevant for BRCA1 c.5263_5264insC driven oncogenesis. Observed HLA associations might have practical implications for establishment of predictive markers for the response to immunotherapies in malignancies driven by this germ-line mutation.
