摘要: PurposeTesting for germline mutations in BRCA1/2 is standard select patients with breast cancer to guide clinical management. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows testing additional predisposition genes. The frequency of detected by using NGS has been reported who were referred or triple-negative cancer. We assessed the and predictors 25 genes, including BRCA1/2, a sequential series at an academic institution examine utility genetic this population.MethodsPatients stages I III seen single center between 2010 2012, agreed participate research DNA banking, included (N = 488). Personal family histories collected was sequenced identify mutations.ResultsDeleterious id...
