Germline Pathogenic Variants in Patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma and Extra-Pancreatic Malignancies: A Nationwide Database Analysis
8 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease. Approximately 10% of affected individuals have an inherited component. Deleterious germline variants increase the lifetime risk for PDAC and are often associated with an elevated risk for extra-pancreatic malignancies. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence and impact of germline pathogenic variants (gPVs) in patients with PDAC and...
