1 Uninformative RCA Tests Rebecca Sutphen, M.D. Professor, USF College of Medicine Chief Medical Officer, InformedDNA

2 Uninformative RCA tests 1. R/OV cancer patient with normal results 2. Cancer-free person with normal results 3. Genetic variants

3 R/OV cancer patient with normal results 1. Test missed mutation - standard RCA testing ~ 95% (but > 95% in Jewish individuals) - ART testing identifies ~ 2% (available if risk > 30%)

4 R/OV cancer patient with normal results 2. Another gene is involved: - HNPCC/PTEN - unknown genes

5 R/OV cancer patient with normal results 3. Could be not genetic - combination of genes/environment

6 Uninformative RCA tests 1. R/OV cancer patient with normal results 2. Cancer-free person with normal results 3. Genetic variants

7 Cancer-free patient with normal results 1. Test missed mutation - standard RCA testing ~ 95% (but > 95% in Jewish individuals) - ART testing identifies ~ 2% (available if risk > 30%)

8 Cancer-free patient with normal results 2. Another gene is involved: - HNPCC/PTEN - unknown genes

9 Cancer-free patient with normal results 3. Could be not genetic - combination of genes/environment

10 Cancer-free patient with normal results 4. Could still be RCA in the family - test other family members

11 Uninformative RCA tests 1. R/OV cancer patient with normal results 2. Cancer-free person with normal results 3. Genetic variants

12 Genetic Variant 1. Suspected deleterious 2. Suspected polymorphism 3. Variant of uncertain significance

16 Other features of PTEN Fibrocystic breast disease Uterine fibroids Thyroid goiter, thyroiditis Lipomas Hemangiomas GI polyps 50% chance to pass down the mutation to each child

17 Management of PTEN Yearly thyroid ultrasound age 18 Yearly mammo and MRI 30 or 10 yrs younger than youngest age at diagnosis Yearly endometrial biopsy 35 or 10 yrs younger than youngest age at diagnosis Yearly urine cytology Yearly transvaginal ultrasound postmenopause Yearly colonoscopy age 50
