1 Inherited breast and ovarian cancer Pr François Duhoux Medical Oncology and Center for Human Genetics Breast Incidence - Mortality.be: Life9me risk : 12% IARC EUCAN Fact Sheets 2 1

2 Breast cancer in Belgium according to age Belgian Cancer Registry 3 Breast cancer: risk factors Sex 1 M / 100 F Age the risk increases with age but 15-20% before the age of 50 Family history Personal history Environmental factors (geographic migra9on) Prolonged exposure to estrogens: Early menarche Late menopause Late first pregnancy, few pregnancies Lack of breast- feeding Other breast lesions (in situ carcinoma, atypical hyperplasia, radial scar,...) Controversies: endocrine treatment for menopausal status, weight, alcohol, tobacco, 4 2

5 Gene5c predisposi5on to breast and ovarian cancer 9 Defini5ons Penetrance = the likelihood a given gene will result in disease High penetrance genes : rare muta9ons very high risk of disease independently of other risk factors Low penetrance genes frequent gene9c variants interact with exogenous factors to cause the diseases 10 5

6 High- risk breast cancer suscep5bility genes/alleles 20x BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, PTEN, STK11 Multiple risk alleles Population frequency <0,1% Relative risk fold Disease Risk 10x 5x 0,1% 5% 50% Allele frequency 11 Moderate- risk breast cancer suscep5bility genes/alleles 20x BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, PTEN, STK11 Multiple risk alleles Population frequency <0,1% Relative risk fold Disease Risk 10x 5x ATM, BRIP1, CHEK2, PALB2 Multiple risk alleles Population frequency <0,6% Relative risk 2 4 fold 0,1% 5% 50% Allele frequency 12 6

10 BRCA1 and BRCA2 Thousands of different sequence variants have been iden9fied : 1) muta9ons that are known or likely to be deleterious and disease- associated 2) variants of unknown func9on = UV : unclassified variants 3) gene9c variants that are likely to be neutral and without clinical importance EMQN Best Practice Guidelines BRCA1 and BRCA2: High penetrance : high risk of disease if muta5on is found But risk also depends on: Sex 1 M / 100 F Age the risk increases with age but 15-20% before the age of 50 Personal history Environmental factors (geographic migra9on) Prolonged exposure to estrogens: Early menarche Late menopause Late first pregnancy, few pregnancies Lack of breast- feeding Other breast lesions (in situ carcinoma, atypical hyperplasia, radial scar,...)

18 BRCA1 and BRCA2: how to interpret the results? Many muta9ons, different from one family to another A clearly deleterious muta9on cannot be iden9fied in all cases! 2- step process : Index case (usually a family member treated for cancer at a young age) then analyze the rela5ves, if appropriate (usually asymptoma9c) If no muta5on could be iden9fied aner the analysis of the index case, the test should be considered as non informa5ve, because the presence of a deleterious muta9on cannot be excluded, and no presymptoma9c test can be offered to the rela9ves If a muta5on is iden9fied, a predisposi5on test can be offered to the rela9ves : if it is nega9ve, it can be concluded that the rela9ve has not inherited the familial predisposi9on factor Minors : no indica9on to test 35 BRCA1 and BRCA2 Sonware for risk assessment e.g. BOADICEA
