Effect of <i>BRCA</i> Mutations on the Length of Survival in Epithelial Ovarian Tumors

2002-01-15

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To study the role of BRCA mutations in ovarian cancer survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Blood samples and specimens of ovarian tumors (whenever blood samples were not available) at the time of the primary surgery were obtained in the course of a nationwide case-control study of women with ovarian cancer in Israel. The three common BRCA mutations in Israel (185delAG, 5382insC, and 6174delT) were analyzed wit...
