Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A polygenic risk score (PRS) enables personalisation of cancer risk and supporting risk stratification for melanoma, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancers. Including a PRS in a cancer risk assessment can facilitate risk-appropriate cancer screening by incorporating an individual's age, sex, family history, and genomic test results. GPs are the likely healthcare professionals to order PRS tests and...
