Abstract

Studies of high-risk families with multiple early-onset cases of breast cancer have been useful for assessing the type and spectrum of germline mutations on the BRCA1 gene, but do not provide guidance to women with modest family history profiles. Thus, studies of women from the general population are needed to determine the BRCA1 mutation frequency in women perceived to be at high risk, and to develop profiles of those most likely to be carriers. To characterize frequency and spectrum of germline BRCA1 mutations in 2 categories of women identified via population-based studies hypothesized to be at increased risk of carrying such mutations: those diagnosed as having breast cancer before age 35 years and those diagnosed before age 45 years who have first-degree breast cancer family history. Study subjects were drawn from 2 population-based case-control studies of breast cancer in young women on the basis of their family history or their age of diagnosis. Cases were younger than 35 years or were younger than 45 years with first-degree family history at the time of breast cancer diagnosis and were ascertained via a population-based cancer registry, and controls (women without breast cancer) were identified via random-digit dialing....Continue Reading
