Large genomic alteration of 7q in two patients with multiple primary cancers, including triple negative breast cancer, and family history of malignant neoplasms
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A great percentage of patients with multiple primary cancers (MPCs) and family history of cancer are suspected to have a hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome. However, only a small proportion of these cases are explained by mutations in high-penetrance genes, suggesting the involvement of undiscovered genes in cancer predisposition. In this study, we report the molecular and clinical characterization of two unrelated patients with MPCs, a positive family history of cancer, no germline pathogenic mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2 and TP53 genes and large genomic rearrangements mapped on chromosome 7q.
