Risk assessment for hereditary cancer syndromes is recommended in primary care, but family history is rarely collected in enough detail to facilitate risk assessment and referral – a roadblock that disproportionately impacts individuals with healthcare access barriers. We sought to qualitatively assess a literacy-adapted, electronic patient-facing family history tool developed for use in diverse, underserved patient populations recruited in the Cancer Health Assessments Reaching Many (CHARM) Study. Interview participants were recruited from a subpopulation of CHARM participants who experienced barriers to tool use in terms of spending a longer time to complete the tool, having incomplete attempts, and/or providing inaccurate family history in comparison to a genetic counselor-collected standard. We conducted semi-structured interviews with participants about barriers and facilitators to tool use and overall tool acceptability; interviews were recorded and professionally transcribed. Transcripts were coded based on a codebook developed using inductive techniques, and coded excerpts were reviewed to identify overarching themes related to barriers and facilitators to family history self-assessment and acceptability of the study tool. Interviewees endorsed the tool as easy to navigate and understand. However, they described barriers related to family history information, literacy and language, and certain tool functions. Participants offered concrete, easy-to-implement solutions to each barrier. Despite experience barriers to use of the tool, most participants indicated that electronic family history self-assessment was acceptable or preferable in comparison to clinician-collected family history. Even for participants who experienced barriers to tool use, family history self-assessment was considered an acceptable alternative to clinician-collected family history. Barriers experienced could be overcome with minor adaptations to the current family history tool. This study is a sub-study of the Cancer Health Assessments Reaching Many (CHARM) trial, ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03426878. Registered 8 February 2018.
在初级保健中建议对遗传性癌症综合征进行风险评估，但很少收集足够详细的家族史来促进风险评估和转诊——这是一个障碍，对有医疗保健获取障碍的个人产生不成比例的影响。我们试图对一种适合读写能力的、面向患者的电子家族史工具进行定性评估，该工具开发用于癌症健康评估(CHARM)研究中招募的不同、服务不足的患者群体。访谈参与者是从CHARM参与者的亚群中招募的，这些参与者在工具使用方面经历了障碍，如花费更长的时间来完成工具，有不完整的尝试，和/或与遗传咨询师收集的标准相比，提供不准确的家族史。我们对参与者进行了半结构化访谈，了解工具使用的障碍和促进因素以及整体工具可接受性;采访被记录下来，并由专业人员转录。基于使用归纳技术开发的代码本对转录本进行编码，并对编码摘录进行审查，以确定与家族史自我评估和研究工具的可接受性相关的障碍和促进因素相关的总体主题。受访者认为该工具易于操作和理解。然而，他们描述了与家族史信息、识字和语言以及某些工具功能有关的障碍。与会者对每个障碍都提出了具体的、易于实施的解决方案。尽管使用该工具存在经验障碍，但大多数参与者表示，与临床收集的家族史相比，电子家族史自我评估是可接受的或更可取的。即使对于那些在工具使用方面有障碍的参与者，家族史自我评估也被认为是一种可接受的替代方法，而不是临床医生收集的家族史。所经历的障碍可以通过对目前的家族史工具进行微小的调整来克服。本研究是Cancer Health Assessments reach Many (CHARM)试验的一个子研究，ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03426878。2018年2月8日注册

Reflex (automatic) BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) genetic testing of tumour tissue is being completed for all newly diagnosed high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) in the province of Ontario, Canada. The objective of this study was to measure the psychological impact of tumour genetic testing among individuals with a new diagnosis of HGSOC. Participants had a new diagnosis of HGSOC and received reflex BRCA1/2 tumour genetic testing as a component of their care. Eligible individuals were recruited from two oncology centres in Toronto, Canada. One week after disclosure of tumour genetic test results, consenting participants were asked to complete a questionnaire that measured cancer-related distress, dispositional optimism, knowledge of hereditary breast/ovarian cancer, recall of tumour genetic test results, satisfaction, and the psychological impact of receiving tumour genetic test results. The Multidimensional Impact of Cancer Risk Assessment (MICRA) questionnaire was used to measure the psychological impact of tumour genetic testing. 76 individuals completed the study survey; 13 said they did not receive their tumour test results. Of the remaining 63 participants, the average MICRA score was 26.8 (SD = 16.3). Higher total MICRA scores were seen among those with children (p = 0.02), who received treatment with primary surgery (p = 0.02), and had higher reported cancer-related distress (p < 0.001). Higher dispositional optimism (p < 0.001) and increasing age (p = 0.03) were associated with lower total MICRA scores. Most (83.5%) participants reported being satisfied/highly satisfied with having tumour testing completed; however, 40.8% could not accurately recall their tumor test results. This study is the first to assess psychological outcomes following reflex BRCA1/2 tumour genetic testing in women newly diagnosed with HGSOC. Increased dispositional optimism provided a protective effect, while increased cancer-related distress increased the psychological impact of tumour genetic testing. Educational resources are needed to help increase patient understanding and recall of tumour results, particularly when tumour genetic testing includes analysis of genes that may have implications for hereditary cancer risk. Additional research is required to better understand the patient experience of reflex tumour genetic testing.

Women with a pathogenic germline mutation in the BRCA1 gene face a very high lifetime risk of developing breast cancer, estimated at 72% by age 80. Prophylactic bilateral mastectomy is the only effective way to lower their risk; however, most women with a mutation opt for intensive screening with annual MRI and mammography. Given that the BRCA1 gene was identified over 20 years ago, there is a need to identify a novel non-surgical approach to hereditary breast cancer prevention. Here, we provide a review of the emerging preclinical and epidemiologic evidence implicating the dysregulation of progesterone-mediated receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK) signaling in the pathogenesis of BRCA1-associated breast cancer. Experimental studies have demonstrated that RANK inhibition suppresses Brca1-mammary tumorigenesis, suggesting a potential target for prevention. Data from studies conducted among women with a BRCA1 mutation further support this pathway in BRCA1-associated breast cancer development. Progesterone-containing (but not estrogen-alone) hormone replacement therapy is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in women with a BRCA1 mutation. Furthermore, BRCA1 mutation carriers have significantly lower levels of circulating osteoprotegerin (OPG), the decoy receptor for RANK-ligand (RANKL) and thus endogenous inhibitor of RANK signaling. OPG levels may be associated with the risk of disease, suggesting a role of this protein as a potential biomarker of breast cancer risk. This may improve upon current risk prediction models, stratifying women at the highest risk of developing the disease, and further identify those who may be targets for anti-RANKL chemoprevention. Collectively, the evidence supports therapeutic inhibition of the RANK pathway for the primary prevention of BRCA1-associated breast cancer, which may generate unique prevention strategies (without prophylactic surgery) and enhance quality of life.

The role of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes in bladder and renal tumorigenesis is unclear. Our goal was to determine the prevalence of specific founder mutations genes BRCA1 (5328 insC, C61G and 4153 delA) and BRCA2 (C5972T) mutations in bladder and kidney cancer patients from Poland. We genotyped 1028 patients with bladder cancer and 688 cases with kidney cancer and two control groups. A BRCA1 mutation (all variants combined) was detected in peripheral blood leukocytes in 5 out of 1028 (0.5%) bladder cases and in 17 of 4000 controls (0.4%) (odds ratio [OR], (OR = 1.1; 95% CI 0.42–3.11; p = 1.0). Among 688 unselected kidney cancer cases a BRCA1 mutations was reported in three patients (0.4%) (OR = 1.0; 95% CI 0.29–3.51; p = 1.0). The mutation C5972T in BRCA2 was observed in 54 bladder cancer patients (5.2%) and in 159 of 2791 healthy controls (5.7%) (OR = 0.9; 95% CI 0.66–1.26; p = 0.6). Fifty kidney cancer cases carried a BRCA2 mutation (7.3%) (OR = 1.3; 95% CI 0.93–1.80; p = 0.1). In conclusion, we found no difference in the prevalence of BRCA1 and BRCA2 founder mutations between cases and healthy controls. The mutations BRCA1 and BRCA2 seem not to play a role in bladder and kidney cancer development in Polish patients.
BRCA1和BRCA2基因在膀胱和肾脏肿瘤发生中的作用尚不清楚。我们的目标是确定波兰膀胱癌和肾癌患者中特定始创突变基因BRCA1 (5328 insC, C61G和4153 delA)和BRCA2 (C5972T)突变的患病率。我们对1028例膀胱癌患者和688例肾癌患者以及两个对照组进行了基因分型。1028例膀胱患者中有5例(0.5%)外周血白细胞检测到BRCA1突变(所有变异组合)，4000例对照中有17例(0.4%)(优势比[OR]， (OR = 1.1;95% ci 0.42-3.11;p = 1.0)。在688例未选择的肾癌病例中，有3例(0.4%)报告了BRCA1突变(OR = 1.0;95% ci 0.29-3.51;p = 1.0)。在54例膀胱癌患者(5.2%)和2791名健康对照者(5.7%)中观察到BRCA2突变C5972T (OR = 0.9;95% ci 0.66-1.26;p = 0.6)。50例肾癌患者携带BRCA2突变(7.3%)(OR = 1.3;95% ci 0.93-1.80;p = 0.1)。总之，我们发现病例和健康对照之间BRCA1和BRCA2创始人突变的患病率没有差异。突变BRCA1和BRCA2似乎在波兰患者的膀胱癌和肾癌发展中不起作用。
