Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: While cancer phenotypes in carriers of a single mutant allele in most major cancer susceptibility genes are well-established, there is a paucity of data on the phenotype of carriers of two pathogenic variants-double heterozygotes (DH) or homozygous carriers. Here, we describe the phenotype of carriers of homozygous and DH pathogenic sequence variants (PSVs) in major cancer susceptibility genes. METHODS:...
