BRCA1/BRCA2
Inherited gene mutations that increase risk of breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancer.
BRCA mutations are inherited (typically) and confer significant lifetime cancer risk. BRCA-mutated cancers respond to PARP inhibitors and have specific surveillance recommendations.
What this means for you: BRCA testing applies if you have personal or family history of these cancers. Discuss with your physician whether testing is warranted.
