Abstract excerpt
Assessments of breast cancer (BC) risk in carriers of pathogenic variants identified by gene panel testing in different populations are highly in demand worldwide. We performed target sequencing of 78 genes involved in DNA repair in 860 females with BC and 520 age- and family history-matched controls from Central Russia. Among BC patients, 562/860 (65.3%) were aged 50 years or less at the time of diagnosis. In...
