Germline genetic variants associated with leukocyte-genes predict tumor recurrence in breast cancer patients

2018-05-02

Abstract excerpt

Germline genetic variants such as BRCA1/2 play an important role in tumorigenesis and clinical outcomes of cancer patients. However, only a small fraction (i.e., 5-10%) of inherited variants has been associated with clinical outcomes (e.g., BRCA1/2, APC, TP53, PTEN and so on). The challenge remains in using these inherited germline variants to predict clinical outcomes of cancer patient population. In an attempt t...
