Abstract
BRCA1 splice isoforms Δ11 and Δ11q can contribute to PARP inhibitor (PARPi) resistance by splicing-out the mutation-containing exon, producing truncated, partially-functional proteins. However, the clinical impact and underlying drivers of BRCA1 exon skipping remain undetermined. We analyzed nine ovarian and breast cancer patient derived xenografts (PDX) with BRCA1 exon 11 frameshift mutations for exon skipping and therapy response, including a matched PDX pair derived from a patient pre- and post-chemotherapy/PARPi. BRCA1 exon 11 skipping was elevated in PARPi resistant PDX tumors. Two independent PDX models acquired secondary BRCA1 splice site mutations (SSMs), predicted in silico to drive exon skipping. Predictions were confirmed using qRT-PCR, RNA sequencing, western blots and BRCA1 minigene modelling. SSMs were also enriched in post-PARPi ovarian cancer patient cohorts from the ARIEL2 and ARIEL4 clinical trials. We demonstrate that SSMs drive BRCA1 exon 11 skipping and PARPi resistance, and should be clinically monitored, along with frame-restoring secondary mutations.

Abstract
Current clinical approaches for mutation discovery are based on short sequence reads (100-300 bp) of exons and flanking splice sites targeted by multigene panels or whole exomes. Short-read sequencing is highly accurate for detection of single nucleotide variants, small indels and simple copy number differences but is of limited use for identifying complex insertions and deletions and other structural rearrangements. We used CRISPR-Cas9 to excise complete BRCA1 and BRCA2 genomic regions from lymphoblast cells of patients with breast cancer, then sequenced these regions with long reads (>10 000 bp) to fully characterise all non-coding regions for structural variation. In a family severely affected with early-onset bilateral breast cancer and with negative (normal) results by gene panel and exome sequencing, we identified an intronic SINE-VNTR-Alu retrotransposon insertion that led to the creation of a pseudoexon in the BRCA1 message and introduced a premature truncation. This combination of CRISPR-Cas9 excision and long-read sequencing reveals a class of complex, damaging and otherwise cryptic mutations that may be particularly frequent in tumour suppressor genes replete with intronic repeats.

Abstract
Mutations in more than 150 genes are responsible for inherited hearing loss, with thousands of different, severe causal alleles that vary among populations. The Israeli Jewish population includes communities of diverse geographic origins, revealing a wide range of deafness-associated variants and enabling clinical characterization of the associated phenotypes. Our goal was to identify the genetic causes of inherited hearing loss in this population, and to determine relationships among genotype, phenotype, and ethnicity. Genomic DNA samples from informative relatives of 88 multiplex families, all of self-identified Jewish ancestry, with either non-syndromic or syndromic hearing loss, were sequenced for known and candidate deafness genes using the HEar-Seq gene panel. The genetic causes of hearing loss were identified for 60% of the families. One gene was encountered for the first time in human hearing loss: ATOH1 (Atonal), a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor responsible for autosomal dominant progressive hearing loss in a five-generation family. Our results show that genomic sequencing with a gene panel dedicated to hearing loss is effective for genetic diagnoses in a diverse population. Comprehensive sequencing enables well-informed genetic counseling and clinical management by medical geneticists, otolaryngologists, audiologists, and speech therapists and can be integrated into newborn screening for deafness.

Abstract
Africa, the ancestral home of all modern humans, is the most informative continent for understanding the human genome and its contribution to complex disease. To better understand the genetics of schizophrenia, we studied the illness in the Xhosa population of South Africa, recruiting 909 cases and 917 age-, gender-, and residence-matched controls. Individuals with schizophrenia were significantly more likely than controls to harbor private, severely damaging mutations in genes that are critical to synaptic function, including neural circuitry mediated by the neurotransmitters glutamine, γ-aminobutyric acid, and dopamine. Schizophrenia is genetically highly heterogeneous, involving severe ultrarare mutations in genes that are critical to synaptic plasticity. The depth of genetic variation in Africa revealed this relationship with a moderate sample size and informed our understanding of the genetics of schizophrenia worldwide.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify susceptibility genes associated with hereditary predisposition to uveal melanoma (UM) in patients with no detectable germline BAP1 alterations. DESIGN Retrospective case series from academic referral centers. PARTICIPANTS Cohort of 154 UM patients with high risk of hereditary cancer defined as patients with 1 or more of the following: (1) familial UM, (2) young age (<35 years) at diagnosis, (3) personal history of other primary cancers, and (4) family history of 2 or more primary cancers with no detectable mutation or deletion in BAP1 gene. METHODS Whole exome sequencing, a cancer gene panel, or both were carried out. Probands included 27 patients with familial UM, 1 patient with bilateral UM, 1 patient with congenital UM, and 125 UM patients with strong personal or family histories, or both, of cancer. Functional validation of variants was carried out by immunohistochemistry, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and genotyping. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Clinical characterization of UM patients with germline alterations in known cancer genes. RESULTS We identified actionable pathogenic variants in 8 known hereditary cancer predisposition genes (PALB2, MLH1, MSH6, CHEK2, SMARCE1, ATM, BRCA1, and CTNNA1) in 9 patients, including 3 of 27 patients (11%) with familial UM and 6 of 127 patients (4.7%) with a high risk for cancer. Two patients showed pathogenic variants in CHEK2 and PALB2, whereas variants in the other genes each occurred in 1 patient. Biallelic inactivation of PALB2 and MLH1 was observed in tumors from the respective patients. The frequencies of pathogenic variants in PALB2, MLH1, and SMARCE1 in UM patients were significantly higher than the observed frequencies in noncancer controls (PALB2: P = 0.02; odds ratio, 8.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-30.6; MLH1: P = 0.04; odds ratio, 25.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-143; SMARCE1: P = 0.001; odds ratio, 2047; 95% confidence interval, 52-4.5e15, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The study provided moderate evidence of gene and disease association of germline mutations in PALB2 and MLH1 with hereditary predisposition to UM. It also identified several other candidate susceptibility genes. The results suggest locus heterogeneity in predisposition to UM. Genetic testing for hereditary predisposition to cancer is warranted in UM patients with strong personal or family history of cancers, or both.

Abstract
Patients harboring germline breast cancer susceptibility genes 1 and 2 (BRCA1/2) mutations are predisposed to developing breast, pancreatic, and ovarian cancers. BRCA2 plays a critical role in homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair and deleterious mutations in BRCA2 confer sensitivity to PARP inhibition. Recently, the PARP inhibitors olaparib and rucaparib were FDA approved for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer and patients with recurrent ovarian cancer with mutations in BRCA1/2. Despite their initial antitumor activity, the development of resistance limits the clinical utility of PARP inhibitor therapy. Multiple resistance mechanisms have been described, including reversion mutations that restore the reading frame of the BRCA2 gene. In this study, we generated olaparib- and rucaparib-resistant BRCA2-mutant Capan1 cell lines. We did not detect secondary reversion mutations in the olaparib- or rucaparib-resistant clones. Several of the resistant clones had gene duplication and amplification of the mutant BRCA2 allele, with a corresponding increase in expression of a truncated BRCA2 protein. In addition, HR-mediated DNA repair was rescued, as evidenced by the restoration of RAD51 foci formation. Using mass spectrometry, we identified Disruptor Of Telomeric silencing 1-Like (DOT1L), as an interacting partner of truncated BRCA2. RNAi-mediated knockdown of BRCA2 or DOT1L was sufficient to resensitize cells to olaparib. The results demonstrate that independent of a BRCA2 reversion, mutation amplification of a mutant-carrying BRCA2 contributes to PARP inhibitor resistance.

Abstract
Importance Among Ashkenazi Jewish women, 3 mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 severely increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancer. However, among Ashkenazi Jewish patients with breast cancer who do not carry one of these founder mutations, the likelihood of carrying another pathogenic mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 or another breast cancer gene is not known. This information would be valuable to the patient and family for cancer prevention and treatment. Objective To determine the frequency of cancer-predisposing mutations other than the BRCA1 and BRCA2 founder alleles among patients of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry with breast cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants In this cohort study, genomic DNA of women from 12 major cancer centers with a first diagnosis of invasive breast cancer who identified themselves and all 4 grandparents as Ashkenazi Jewish and participated in the New York Breast Cancer Study (NYBCS) from 1996 to 2000 was sequenced for known and candidate breast cancer genes. Data analysis was performed from July 10, 2014, to March 10, 2017. Main Outcomes and Measures Genomic DNA from all 1007 NYBCS probands was sequenced for 23 known and candidate breast cancer genes using BROCA, a targeted multiplexed gene panel. Results Of the 1007 probands in the study, 903 probands had no founder mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2; of these probands, 7 (0.8%) carried another pathogenic mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2, and 31 (3.4%) carried a pathogenic mutation in another breast cancer gene (29 in CHEK2, and 1 each in BRIP1 and NBN). Of all inherited predispositions to breast cancer in the NYBCS, 73.8% (104 of 142) were due to a BRCA1 or BRCA2 founder allele, 4.9% (7 of 142) to another BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, and 21.8% (31 of 142) to a mutation in another gene. Overall, 14.1% (142 of 1007) of Ashkenazi Jewish patients with breast cancer in the NYBCS carried a germline mutation responsible for their disease: 11.0% (111 of 1007) in BRCA1 or BRCA2, and 3.1% (31 of 1007) in CHEK2 or another breast cancer gene. Of the 111 patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, 57 (51.4%) had a mother or sister with breast or ovarian cancer and 54 patients (48.6%) did not. Conclusions and Relevance Comprehensive sequencing would provide complete relevant genetic information for Ashkenazi Jewish patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Among Nigerian women, breast cancer is diagnosed at later stages, is more frequently triple-negative disease, and is far more frequently fatal than in Europe or the United States. We evaluated the contribution of an inherited predisposition to breast cancer in this population. PATIENTS AND METHODS Cases were 1,136 women with invasive breast cancer (mean age at diagnosis, 47.5 ± 11.5 years) ascertained in Ibadan, Nigeria. Patients were selected regardless of age at diagnosis, family history, or prior genetic testing. Controls were 997 women without cancer (mean age at interview, 47.0 ± 12.4 years) from the same communities. BROCA panel sequencing was used to identify loss-of-function mutations in known and candidate breast cancer genes. RESULTS Of 577 patients with information on tumor stage, 86.1% (497) were diagnosed at stage III (241) or IV (256). Of 290 patients with information on tumor hormone receptor status and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, 45.9% (133) had triple-negative breast cancer. Among all cases, 14.7% (167 of 1,136) carried a loss-of-function mutation in a breast cancer gene: 7.0% in BRCA1, 4.1% in BRCA2, 1.0% in PALB2, 0.4% in TP53, and 2.1% in any of 10 other genes. Odds ratios were 23.4 (95% CI, 7.4 to 73.9) for BRCA1 and 10.3 (95% CI, 3.7 to 28.5) for BRCA2. Risks were also significantly associated with PALB2 (11 cases, zero controls; P = .002) and TP53 (five cases, zero controls; P = .036). Compared with other patients, BRCA1 mutation carriers were younger ( P < .001) and more likely to have triple-negative breast cancer ( P = .028). CONCLUSION Among Nigerian women, one in eight cases of invasive breast cancer is a result of inherited mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, or TP53, and breast cancer risks associated with these genes are extremely high. Given limited resources, prevention and early detection services should be especially focused on these highest-risk women.

Abstract
Purpose: We hypothesized that mutations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes beyond BRCA1 and BRCA2 improve outcomes for ovarian carcinoma patients treated with platinum therapy and would impact the relative benefit of adding prolonged bevacizumab.Experimental Design: We sequenced DNA from blood and/or neoplasm from 1,195 women enrolled in GOG-0218, a randomized phase III trial in advanced ovarian carcinoma of bevacizumab added to carboplatin and paclitaxel. Defects in HRR were defined as damaging mutations in 16 genes. Proportional hazards models were used to estimate relative hazards for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).Results: Of 1,195 women with ovarian carcinoma, HRR mutations were identified in 307 (25.7%). Adjusted hazards for progression and death compared with those without mutations were lower for women with non-BRCA HRR mutations [HR = 0.73; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.57-0.94; P = 0.01 for PFS; HR = 0.67; 95% CI, 0.50-0.90; P = 0.007 for OS] and BRCA1 mutations (HR = 0.80; 95% CI, 0.66-0.97; P = 0.02 for PFS; HR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.59-0.94; P = 0.01 for OS) and were lowest for BRCA2 mutations (HR = 0.52; 95% CI, 0.40-0.67; P < 0.0001 for PFS; HR = 0.36; 95% CI, 0.25-0.53; P < 0.0001 for OS). A test of interaction showed no difference in the effect of bevacizumab on PFS between cases with and without mutations.Conclusions: HRR mutations, including non-BRCA genes, significantly prolong PFS and OS in ovarian carcinoma and should be stratified for in clinical trials. The benefit of adding bevacizumab was not significantly modified by mutation status. Clin Cancer Res; 24(4); 777-83. ©2017 AACR.

Abstract
Breast cancer among Palestinian women has lower incidence than in Europe or North America, yet is very frequently familial. We studied genetic causes of this familial clustering in a consecutive hospital-based series of 875 Palestinian patients with invasive breast cancer, including 453 women with diagnosis by age 40, or with breast or ovarian cancer in a mother, sister, grandmother or aunt ("discovery series"); and 422 women diagnosed after age 40 and with negative family history ("older-onset sporadic patient series"). Genomic DNA from women in the discovery series was sequenced for all known breast cancer genes, revealing a pathogenic mutation in 13% (61/453) of patients. These mutations were screened in all patients and in 300 Palestinian female controls, revealing 1.0% (4/422) carriers among older, nonfamilial patients and two carriers among controls. The mutational spectrum was highly heterogeneous, including pathogenic mutations in 11 different genes: BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, ATM, CHEK2, BARD1, BRIP1, PALB2, MRE11A, PTEN and XRCC2. BRCA1 carriers were significantly more likely than other patients to have triple negative tumors (p = 0.03). The single most frequent mutation was TP53 p.R181C, which was significantly enriched in the discovery series compared to controls (p = 0.01) and was responsible for 15% of breast cancers among young onset or familial patients. TP53 p.R181C predisposed specifically to breast cancer with incomplete penetrance, and not to other Li-Fraumeni cancers. Palestinian women with young onset or familial breast cancer and their families would benefit from genetic analysis and counseling.

Abstract
PURPOSE Breast cancer-predisposing mutations PALB2 c.1027C>T (p.Gln343*) and PALB2 c.2167_2168delAT have each been observed multiple times in breast cancer families of Italian ancestry. More recently, the c2167_2168delAT mutation was identified in unrelated breast cancer cases of various ancestries. For each mutation, we investigated whether the origin was multiple mutational events (a "hot-spot") or a single event (a founder allele). METHODS We genotyped and reconstructed haplotypes for 36 participants of Italian, Italian-American, Hispanic, and Nigerian ancestries, using seven short tandem repeat (STR) markers that covered 3 Megabases within and flanking PALB2 on chromosome 16. RESULTS For PALB2 c.1027C>T, a shared haplotype with a minimum size of 150 kb was shared by all 19 carriers investigated, all of Italian ancestry. This result suggests that this allele arose as a single event in a shared ancestor. For PALB2 c.2167_2168delAT, all 12 carriers from American-Italian and Italian families shared a 1-Mb haplotype, the 3 Hispanic carriers shared a different haplotype of size 2 Mb, and the Nigerian carrier had different alleles at all 7 STR markers. These results suggest that PALB2 c.2167_2168delAT arose multiple times, but that within each population, PALB2 c.2167_2168delAT likely represents a single mutational event. CONCLUSION We identified two PALB2 mutations that are founder alleles in Italian families, one of which is, independently, also a founder mutation in American-Hispanic breast cancers.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are relatively common in women with ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal carcinoma (OC) causing a greatly increased lifetime risk of these cancers, but the frequency and relevance of inherited mutations in other genes is less well characterized. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency and importance of germline mutations in cancer-associated genes in OC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A study population of 1915 woman with OC and available germline DNA were identified from the University of Washington (UW) gynecologic tissue bank (n = 570) and from Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) phase III clinical trials 218 (n = 788) and 262 (n = 557). Patients were enrolled at diagnosis and were not selected for age or family history. Germline DNA was sequenced from women with OC using a targeted capture and multiplex sequencing assay. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Mutation frequencies in OC were compared with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute GO Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) and the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC). Clinical characteristics and survival were assessed by mutation status. RESULTS Overall, the median (range) age at diagnosis was 60 (28-91) years in patients recruited from UW and 61 (23-87) years in patients recruited from the GOG trials. A higher number of black women were recruited from the GOG trials (4.3% vs 1.4%; P = .009); but in patients recruited from UW, there was a higher proportion of fallopian tube carcinomas (13.3% vs 5.7%; P < .001); stage I and II disease (14.6% vs 0% [GOG trials were restricted to advanced-stage cancer]); and nonserous carcinomas (29.9% vs 13.1%, P < .001). Of 1915 patients, 280 (15%) had mutations in BRCA1 (n = 182), or BRCA2 (n = 98), and 8 (0.4%) had mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. Mutations in BRIP1 (n = 26), RAD51C (n = 11), RAD51D (n = 11), PALB2 (n = 12), and BARD1 (n = 4) were significantly more common in patients with OC than in the ESP or ExAC, present in 3.3%. Race, histologic subtype, and disease site were not predictive of mutation frequency. Patients with a BRCA2 mutation from the GOG trials had longer progression-free survival (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% CI, 0.45-0.79; P < .001) and overall survival (HR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.25-0.60; P < .001) compared with those without mutations. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Of 1915 patients with OC, 347 (18%) carried pathogenic germline mutations in genes associated with OC risk. PALB2 and BARD1 are suspected OC genes and together with established OC genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, RAD51C, RAD51D, MSH2, MLH1, PMS2, and MSH6) bring the total number of genes suspected to cause hereditary OC to 11.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inherited mutations in DNA-repair genes such as BRCA2 are associated with increased risks of lethal prostate cancer. Although the prevalence of germline mutations in DNA-repair genes among men with localized prostate cancer who are unselected for family predisposition is insufficient to warrant routine testing, the frequency of such mutations in patients with metastatic prostate cancer has not been established. METHODS We recruited 692 men with documented metastatic prostate cancer who were unselected for family history of cancer or age at diagnosis. We isolated germline DNA and used multiplex sequencing assays to assess mutations in 20 DNA-repair genes associated with autosomal dominant cancer-predisposition syndromes. RESULTS A total of 84 germline DNA-repair gene mutations that were presumed to be deleterious were identified in 82 men (11.8%); mutations were found in 16 genes, including BRCA2 (37 men [5.3%]), ATM (11 [1.6%]), CHEK2 (10 [1.9% of 534 men with data]), BRCA1 (6 [0.9%]), RAD51D (3 [0.4%]), and PALB2 (3 [0.4%]). Mutation frequencies did not differ according to whether a family history of prostate cancer was present or according to age at diagnosis. Overall, the frequency of germline mutations in DNA-repair genes among men with metastatic prostate cancer significantly exceeded the prevalence of 4.6% among 499 men with localized prostate cancer (P<0.001), including men with high-risk disease, and the prevalence of 2.7% in the Exome Aggregation Consortium, which includes 53,105 persons without a known cancer diagnosis (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In our multicenter study, the incidence of germline mutations in genes mediating DNA-repair processes among men with metastatic prostate cancer was 11.8%, which was significantly higher than the incidence among men with localized prostate cancer. The frequencies of germline mutations in DNA-repair genes among men with metastatic disease did not differ significantly according to age at diagnosis or family history of prostate cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Screening multiple genes for inherited cancer predisposition expands opportunities for cancer prevention; however, reports of variants of uncertain significance (VUS) may limit clinical usefulness. We used an expert-driven approach, exploiting all available information, to evaluate multigene panels for inherited cancer predisposition in a clinical series that included multiple cancer types and complex family histories. METHODS For 1,462 sequential patients referred for testing by BROCA or ColoSeq multigene panels, genomic DNA was sequenced and variants were interpreted by multiple experts using International Agency for Research on Cancer guidelines and incorporating evolutionary conservation, known and predicted variant consequences, and personal and family cancer history. Diagnostic yield was evaluated for various presenting conditions and family-history profiles. RESULTS Of 1,462 patients, 12% carried damaging mutations in established cancer genes. Diagnostic yield varied by clinical presentation. Actionable results were identified for 13% of breast and colorectal cancer patients and for 4% of cancer-free subjects, based on their family histories of cancer. Incidental findings explaining cancer in neither the patient nor the family were present in 1.7% of subjects. Less than 1% of patients carried VUS in BRCA1 or BRCA2. For all genes combined, initial reports contained VUS for 10.5% of patients, which declined to 7.5% of patients after reclassification based on additional information. CONCLUSIONS Individualized interpretation of gene panels is a complex medical activity. Interpretation by multiple experts in the context of personal and family histories maximizes actionable results and minimizes reports of VUS.Genet Med 18 10, 974-981.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective: Bevacizumab is an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody with activity in ovarian cancer. GOG 218 was a phase III, randomized trial in advanced primary ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal carcinoma (collectively, OC), examining the role of adding bevacizumab to a regimen of q21 day carboplatin and paclitaxel. Our objective was to examine whether mutations in homologous recombination (HR) genes affect response to treatment.
Methods: We sequenced germline (from blood) and/or somatic (from neoplastic tissue) DNA from 1195 women enrolled in GOG 218 using the targeted capture and multiplex sequencing assay BROCA-HR, focusing on 16 DNA repair genes. Defects in HR were defined as germline or somatic mutations in genes predicted to affect HR, including BRCA1, BRCA2, and others. Proportional hazards models were used to provide estimates of relative hazards for progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) adjusted for clinical characteristics.
Results: Of 1195 women with OC, germline or somatic mutations were identified in 147 (12.3%) in BRCA1, 78 (6.5%) in BRCA2, and 81 (6.8%) in other, non-BRCA HR genes. Total mutation frequency (all genes combined) in those with high-grade serous histology was 26.9% (261/971), but this was not significantly higher than the mutation frequency in endometrioid histology (10/42, 23.8%), clear cell histology (6/28, 21.4%), or unspecified carcinoma (20/90, 22.2%). Mutation frequency also did not differ by disease site. Median PFS and OS by group were as follows: BRCA1: 15.6 and 53.7 months, BRCA2: 21.6 and 75.2 months, non-BRCA HR: 16 and 56 months, and no mutation: 12.6 and 42 months. Adjusting for study treatment, stage, residual disease, and initial performance status, hazards for progression and death compared to those without mutations were significantly lower for those with mutations, specifically with BRCA1 mutations (hazard ratio (HR) 0.80, 95% CI 0.66 – 0.97, p=0.02 for PFS; HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.60 – 0.95, p=0.02 for OS), with BRCA2 mutations (HR 0.52, 95% CI 0.40 – 0.67, p<0.0001 for PFS; HR 0.37, 95% CI 0.25 – 0.53, p<0.0001 for OS), and with non-BRCA HR mutations (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.57 – 0.94, p=0.01 for PFS; HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.50 – 0.90, p=0.007 for OS). The analysis of PFS and OS by mutation status and treatment arm is underway.
Conclusions: Women with OC with either germline or somatic mutations affecting HR have significantly longer PFS and OS than those without mutations. Disease site and histology were not predictive of mutation status. The effect of mutation status on response by treatment arm will be reported at presentation.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are relatively common in women with ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal carcinoma (OC) causing a greatly increased lifetime risk of these cancers, but the frequency and relevance of inherited mutations in other genes is less well characterized. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency and importance of germline mutations in cancer-associated genes in OC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A study population of 1915 woman with OC and available germline DNA were identified from the University of Washington (UW) gynecologic tissue bank (n = 570) and from Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) phase III clinical trials 218 (n = 788) and 262 (n = 557). Patients were enrolled at diagnosis and were not selected for age or family history. Germline DNA was sequenced from women with OC using a targeted capture and multiplex sequencing assay. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Mutation frequencies in OC were compared with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute GO Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) and the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC). Clinical characteristics and survival were assessed by mutation status. RESULTS Overall, the median (range) age at diagnosis was 60 (28-91) years in patients recruited from UW and 61 (23-87) years in patients recruited from the GOG trials. A higher number of black women were recruited from the GOG trials (4.3% vs 1.4%; P = .009); but in patients recruited from UW, there was a higher proportion of fallopian tube carcinomas (13.3% vs 5.7%; P < .001); stage I and II disease (14.6% vs 0% [GOG trials were restricted to advanced-stage cancer]); and nonserous carcinomas (29.9% vs 13.1%, P < .001). Of 1915 patients, 280 (15%) had mutations in BRCA1 (n = 182), or BRCA2 (n = 98), and 8 (0.4%) had mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. Mutations in BRIP1 (n = 26), RAD51C (n = 11), RAD51D (n = 11), PALB2 (n = 12), and BARD1 (n = 4) were significantly more common in patients with OC than in the ESP or ExAC, present in 3.3%. Race, histologic subtype, and disease site were not predictive of mutation frequency. Patients with a BRCA2 mutation from the GOG trials had longer progression-free survival (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% CI, 0.45-0.79; P < .001) and overall survival (HR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.25-0.60; P < .001) compared with those without mutations. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Of 1915 patients with OC, 347 (18%) carried pathogenic germline mutations in genes associated with OC risk. PALB2 and BARD1 are suspected OC genes and together with established OC genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, RAD51C, RAD51D, MSH2, MLH1, PMS2, and MSH6) bring the total number of genes suspected to cause hereditary OC to 11.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Germline loss-of-function mutations in PALB2 are known to confer a predisposition to breast cancer. However, the lifetime risk of breast cancer that is conferred by such mutations remains unknown. METHODS We analyzed the risk of breast cancer among 362 members of 154 families who had deleterious truncating, splice, or deletion mutations in PALB2. The age-specific breast-cancer risk for mutation carriers was estimated with the use of a modified segregation-analysis approach that allowed for the effects of PALB2 genotype and residual familial aggregation. RESULTS The risk of breast cancer for female PALB2 mutation carriers, as compared with the general population, was eight to nine times as high among those younger than 40 years of age, six to eight times as high among those 40 to 60 years of age, and five times as high among those older than 60 years of age. The estimated cumulative risk of breast cancer among female mutation carriers was 14% (95% confidence interval [CI], 9 to 20) by 50 years of age and 35% (95% CI, 26 to 46) by 70 years of age. Breast-cancer risk was also significantly influenced by birth cohort (P<0.001) and by other familial factors (P=0.04). The absolute breast-cancer risk for PALB2 female mutation carriers by 70 years of age ranged from 33% (95% CI, 25 to 44) for those with no family history of breast cancer to 58% (95% CI, 50 to 66) for those with two or more first-degree relatives with breast cancer at 50 years of age. CONCLUSIONS Loss-of-function mutations in PALB2 are an important cause of hereditary breast cancer, with respect both to the frequency of cancer-predisposing mutations and to the risk associated with them. Our data suggest the breast-cancer risk for PALB2 mutation carriers may overlap with that for BRCA2 mutation carriers. (Funded by the European Research Council and others.).

Abstract
PURPOSE Single-exon inversions have rarely been described in clinical syndromes and are challenging to detect using Sanger sequencing. We report the case of a 40-year-old woman with adenomatous colon polyps too numerous to count and who had a complex inversion spanning the entire exon 10 in APC (the gene encoding for adenomatous polyposis coli), causing exon skipping and resulting in a frameshift and premature protein truncation. METHODS In this study, we employed complete APC gene sequencing using high-coverage next-generation sequencing by ColoSeq, analysis with BreakDancer and SLOPE software, and confirmatory transcript analysis. RESULTS ColoSeq identified a complex small genomic rearrangement consisting of an inversion that results in translational skipping of exon 10 in the APC gene. This mutation would not have been detected by traditional sequencing or gene-dosage methods. CONCLUSION We report a case of adenomatous polyposis resulting from a complex single-exon inversion. Our report highlights the benefits of large-scale sequencing methods that capture intronic sequences with high enough depth of coverage-as well as the use of informatics tools-to enable detection of small pathogenic structural rearrangements.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hallmarks of germline BRCA1/2-associated ovarian carcinomas include chemosensitivity and improved survival. The therapeutic impact of somatic BRCA1/2 mutations and mutations in other homologous recombination DNA repair genes is uncertain. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Using targeted capture and massively parallel genomic sequencing, we assessed 390 ovarian carcinomas for germline and somatic loss-of-function mutations in 30 genes, including BRCA1, BRCA2, and 11 other genes in the homologous recombination pathway. RESULTS Thirty-one percent of ovarian carcinomas had a deleterious germline (24%) and/or somatic (9%) mutation in one or more of the 13 homologous recombination genes: BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, CHEK1, CHEK2, FAM175A, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, RAD51C, and RAD51D. Nonserous ovarian carcinomas had similar rates of homologous recombination mutations to serous carcinomas (28% vs. 31%, P = 0.6), including clear cell, endometrioid, and carcinosarcoma. The presence of germline and somatic homologous recombination mutations was highly predictive of primary platinum sensitivity (P = 0.0002) and improved overall survival (P = 0.0006), with a median overall survival of 66 months in germline homologous recombination mutation carriers, 59 months in cases with a somatic homologous recombination mutation, and 41 months for cases without a homologous recombination mutation. CONCLUSIONS Germline or somatic mutations in homologous recombination genes are present in almost one third of ovarian carcinomas, including both serous and nonserous histologies. Somatic BRCA1/2 mutations and mutations in other homologous recombination genes have a similar positive impact on overall survival and platinum responsiveness as germline BRCA1/2 mutations. The similar rate of homologous recombination mutations in nonserous carcinomas supports their inclusion in PARP inhibitor clinical trials.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The Arizona Cancer Registry has shown that in Pima County, AZ, breast cancer diagnosed in young Latinas increased 40% from 2004-2008, compared to 1999-2003, and Latinas more likely to die of their cancer. This study seeks to characterize genetic variation in women of Mexican ancestry with breast cancer using next generation sequencing, with the goal of providing prevalence information to help guide screening and cancer prevention efforts.
Methods: The ELLA Binational Breast Cancer Study enrolled women of Mexican ancestry living in either U.S. or Mexico within 24 months of breast cancer diagnosis. Mexican women from the state of Jalisco were collected through collaboration with the Universidad de Guadalajara and women of Mexican ancestry were recruited from Tucson and Phoenix, AZ. Genomic DNA from 92 ELLA study participants (49 from the U.S. and 43 from Mexico) was enriched for breast cancer influencing gene sequence using the BROCA panel with standard techniques. Samples were sequenced with next generation sequencing and variants identified.
Results: Sequencing of breast cancer risk genes in 92 Mexican and Mexican-American women with breast cancer revealed the presence of deleterious mutations in 15% of women (14/92). Five carry mutations in BRCA1, 5 in BRCA2, 2 in CHEK2, 1 in PALB2 and 1 in RAD51C. An additional 9% of participants (8/92) carry rare mutations of unknown functional consequence in the same genes. Four carry mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 at sites predicted to alter splice enhancers and four carry missense mutations in CHEK2 that are predicted to damage to kinase function. None of these variants appear in public databases or are characterized functionally in gene-specific databases. Dozens of women carry VUS or novel variants.
Women carrying BRCA1 mutations are significantly more likely to have had triple negative pathology. Women carrying other mutations known or thought to be deleterious are also more likely to have been younger at diagnosis, to have more aggressive breast cancer or to report a family history of breast cancer.

Conclusion: Deleterious BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations are common among women of Mexican ancestry diagnosed with breast cancer. Within this cohort, the prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations is 11%, and 4% of women carry mutations in other genes increasing breast cancer risk. This is higher than the 10% mutation prevalence estimated for Ashkenazi Jewish women with breast cancer. An additional 9% of women carry variants likely to disrupt gene function and dozens of VUS and novel variants are found in these women. Further analysis of samples from the remaining 942 women using genetic sequencing will help further elucidate the role of genetic risk factors in women of Mexican ancestry with breast cancer.

Abstract
Genes disrupted in schizophrenia may be revealed by de novo mutations in affected persons from otherwise healthy families. Furthermore, during normal brain development, genes are expressed in patterns specific to developmental stage and neuroanatomical structure. We identified de novo mutations in persons with schizophrenia and then mapped the responsible genes onto transcriptome profiles of normal human brain tissues from age 13 weeks gestation to adulthood. In the dorsolateral and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex during fetal development, genes harboring damaging de novo mutations in schizophrenia formed a network significantly enriched for transcriptional coexpression and protein interaction. The 50 genes in the network function in neuronal migration, synaptic transmission, signaling, transcriptional regulation, and transport. These results suggest that disruptions of fetal prefrontal cortical neurogenesis are critical to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. These results also support the feasibility of integrating genomic and transcriptome analyses to map critical neurodevelopmental processes in time and space in the brain.

Abstract
CRA1501 Background: African American (AA) women are disproportionately affected by early-onset and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). One explanation for these disparities may be a higher frequency of inherited mutations among AA women in genes in DNA repair pathways, including BRCA1 and BRCA2. Using targeted genomic capture and next generation sequencing (NGS), we screened DNA from AA women with breast cancer for mutations in all 18 known breast cancer genes. Methods: A total of 249 unrelated AA women with breast cancer were ascertained through the Cancer Risk Clinic at The University of Chicago. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and 3 micrograms were used for targeted capture and sequencing. Average read depth across the 1.4 MB targeted region was 320-fold. Sequence reads were aligned and all classes of variants identified: point mutations, small insertions and deletions, and large genomic rearrangements. Only unambiguously damaging mutations were called: stops, complete genomic deletions, and missenses demonstrated experimentally to cause loss of protein function. Variants were validated by PCR or Taqman analysis. Results: Fifty-six of 249 subjects (22%) carried at least one loss-of-function mutation, distributed among BRCA1 (n=26), BRCA2 (n=20), CHEK2 (n=3), PALB2 (n=3), ATM (n=5), and PTEN (n=1). The majority of mutations were unique. Damaging mutations were carried by 30% of patients with TNBC, 27% of patients diagnosed at age ≤45, 49% with a second breast primary, and 30% with a family history of either breast or ovarian cancer in any close relative. Conclusions: We present the first comprehensive screen of all known breast cancer susceptibility genes among AA women using NGS. Mutation carrier frequencies are >25% for major subsets of patients defined by tumor or host characteristics. These high carrier frequencies suggest the importance of screening for mutations in all breast cancer genes in all AA breast cancer patients diagnosed at a young age, with a family history, or with TNBC as a way to identify at-risk family members for life-saving interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Few studies have comprehensively tested all ovarian cancer patients for BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) mutations. We sought to determine if clinically identified mutation carriers differed in clinical characteristics and outcomes from mutation carriers not identified during routine clinical care. METHODS We included women with ovarian, tubal or peritoneal carcinoma. BROCA, an assay using targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing was used to identify mutations in BRCA1/2 and 19 other tumor suppressor genes. We identified subjects with BRCA1/2 mutations using BROCA that had not previously received standard genetic testing (BROCA, n=37) and compared them to subjects with BRCA1/2 mutations identified during routine clinical care (known, n=70), and to those wildtype for 21 genes using BROCA (wildtype, n=291). RESULTS BROCA mutation carriers were older than known carriers, median age of 58 (range 41-77), vs. 51 (range 33-76, p=0.003, Mann-Whitney). 58/70 (82.9%) of known carriers had a strong family history, compared with 15/37 (40.5%) of BROCA carriers, p<0.0001, (Fisher's Exact). Median overall survival was significantly worse for BROCA mutation carriers compared to known mutation carriers, (45 vs. 93months, p<0.0001, HR 3.47 (1.79-6.72), Log-rank test). The improved survival for BRCA1/2 mutation carriers (known and BROCA) compared with wildtype cases (69 vs. 44months, p=0.0001, HR 0.58 (0.43-0.77), Log-rank test) was driven by known mutation carriers. CONCLUSIONS Older age, absence of a strong family history, and poor survival are all associated with decreased clinical identification of inherited BRCA1/2 mutations in women with ovarian cancer. Using age and family history to direct genetic testing will miss a significant percentage of mutation carriers. Testing should be initiated at the time of diagnosis to maximize identification of mutations and minimize survival bias.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE RAD51D, a gene in the Fanconi Anemia-BRCA homologous recombination pathway, has recently been shown to harbor germline mutations responsible for ovarian carcinoma in multiply affected families. We aimed to extend these results to ovarian carcinoma in the general population. METHODS We sequenced RAD51D in germline DNA from 360 individuals with primary ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube carcinoma who were not selected for age of cancer onset or family history. We also sequenced RAD51D in 459 probands from 226 high risk breast cancer families who were wild type for 21 breast and ovarian cancer genes. RESULTS Of 360 cases, three (0.8%) carried loss-of-function mutations in RAD51D. All three subjects had ovarian carcinoma; one was also diagnosed with a synchronous endometrial carcinoma. Only one of the three subjects had a family history of breast or ovarian cancer. Combined with previous data for this series, 23.9% of women with unselected ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal carcinoma carried a germline loss-of-function mutation in any of 13 tumor suppressor genes. Among the 449 women and 10 men with familial breast cancer, none carried a loss of function mutation in RAD51D. CONCLUSIONS These data support the previous observation that loss-of-function mutations in RAD51D predispose to ovarian carcinoma but not to breast carcinoma. We conclude that inherited ovarian cancer is highly heterogeneous genetically, and that approximately one in four ovarian carcinoma patients carry a germline mutation in a known tumor suppressor gene that confers high risk.

Abstract
Inherited mutations in the BRCA2-interacting protein PALB2 are known to be associated with increased risks of developing breast cancer. To evaluate the contribution of PALB2 to familial breast cancer in the United States, we sequenced the coding sequences and flanking regulatory regions of the gene from constitutional genomic DNA of 1,144 familial breast cancer patients with wild-type sequences at BRCA1 and BRCA2. Overall, 3.4% (33/972) of patients not selected by ancestry and 0% (0/172) of patients specifically of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry were heterozygous for a nonsense, frameshift, or frameshift-associated splice mutation in PALB2. Mutations were detected in both male and female breast cancer patients. All mutations were individually rare: the 33 heterozygotes harbored 13 different mutations, 5 previously reported and 8 novel mutations. PALB2 heterozygotes were 4-fold more likely to have a male relative with breast cancer (P = 0.0003), 6-fold more likely to have a relative with pancreatic cancer (P = 0.002), and 1.3-fold more likely to have a relative with ovarian cancer (P = 0.18). Compared with their female relatives without mutations, increased risk of developing breast cancer for female PALB2 heterozygotes was 2.3-fold (95% CI: 1.5-4.2) by age 55 and 3.4-fold (95% CI: 2.4-5.9) by age 85. Loss of the wild-type PALB2 allele was observed in laser-dissected tumor specimens from heterozygous patients. Given this mutation prevalence and risk, consideration might be given to clinical testing of PALB2 by complete genomic sequencing for familial breast cancer patients with wild-type sequences at BRCA1 and BRCA2.

Abstract
The c.156_157insAlu BRCA2 mutation has so far only been reported in hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (HBOC) families of Portuguese origin. Since this mutation is not detectable using the commonly used screening methodologies and must be specifically sought, we screened for this rearrangement in a total of 5,443 suspected HBOC families from several countries. Whereas the c.156_157insAlu BRCA2 mutation was detected in 11 of 149 suspected HBOC families from Portugal, representing 37.9% of all deleterious mutations, in other countries it was detected only in one proband living in France and in four individuals requesting predictive testing living in France and in the USA, all being Portuguese immigrants. After performing an extensive haplotype study in carrier families, we estimate that this founder mutation occurred 558 ± 215 years ago. We further demonstrate significant quantitative differences regarding the production of the BRCA2 full length RNA and the transcript lacking exon 3 in c.156_157insAlu BRCA2 mutation carriers and in controls. The cumulative incidence of breast cancer in carriers did not differ from that of other BRCA2 and BRCA1 pathogenic mutations. We recommend that all suspected HBOC families from Portugal or with Portuguese ancestry are specifically tested for this rearrangement.

Abstract
Inherited loss-of-function mutations in the tumor suppressor genes BRCA1, BRCA2, and multiple other genes predispose to high risks of breast and/or ovarian cancer. Cancer-associated inherited mutations in these genes are collectively quite common, but individually rare or even private. Genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations has become an integral part of clinical practice, but testing is generally limited to these two genes and to women with severe family histories of breast or ovarian cancer. To determine whether massively parallel, "next-generation" sequencing would enable accurate, thorough, and cost-effective identification of inherited mutations for breast and ovarian cancer, we developed a genomic assay to capture, sequence, and detect all mutations in 21 genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2, with inherited mutations that predispose to breast or ovarian cancer. Constitutional genomic DNA from subjects with known inherited mutations, ranging in size from 1 to >100,000 bp, was hybridized to custom oligonucleotides and then sequenced using a genome analyzer. Analysis was carried out blind to the mutation in each sample. Average coverage was >1200 reads per base pair. After filtering sequences for quality and number of reads, all single-nucleotide substitutions, small insertion and deletion mutations, and large genomic duplications and deletions were detected. There were zero false-positive calls of nonsense mutations, frameshift mutations, or genomic rearrangements for any gene in any of the test samples. This approach enables widespread genetic testing and personalized risk assessment for breast and ovarian cancer.

Abstract
A number of BRCA1 and BRCA2 polymorphisms have been extensively studied in order to test their association with breast cancer risk. Subsequently, discordant results were reported. In the present study, the genotypes of one BRCA1 (Q356R) and three BRCA2 (203G>A, N372H, IVS21-66T>C) common variants were evaluated in a series of 252 breast cancer patients, 155 age-matched controls and analysed in relation to family history (low- or high-risk) and BRCA1/2 mutation status. A complete analysis of the BRCA1/2 coding regions was performed on the 217 women from high-risk families and 44 BRCA1/2 mutation carriers were identifed. According to a dominant inheritance model, the BRCA2 IVS21-66T>C variant showed a 1.79-fold (95% CI, 1.16-2.78; P=0.009) increased breast cancer risk for the overall series. The BRCA2 N372H polymorphism was associated with a 2.29-fold (95% CI, 1.16-4.49; P=0.016) increased risk in the subgroup of high-risk families with no BRCA1/2 mutations. Conversely, the BRCA1 Q356R and BRCA2 203G>A polymorphisms did not show any significant associations with breast cancer risk. In conclusion, the analysis of some BRCA2 variants could help to identify women at a higher risk of developing breast cancer who could be candidates for chemoprevention protocols.

Abstract
Human ERBB2 presents several SNPs. One of these, Ile655Val, introduces a structural change in the transmembrane region of ERBB2 and has been the focus of debate over its potential role as a susceptibility marker for breast cancer risk. Another SNP, Ala1170Pro, introduces a structural change in the carboxyl-terminal regulatory domain of the protein, but its clinical and biological importance remains undefined. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of rare alleles of both SNPs and the risk of developing breast cancer, BRCA1 alterations and clinical-pathological features of Caucasian breast cancer patients with familial history of breast/ovarian cancer. The originality of the present paper is that it is the only specifically focusing on the relationship between ERBB2 SNPs and familiarity/BRCA1 characteristics. A consecutive series of 628 patients with first diagnosis of breast cancer and 169 healthy people had DNA analyzed for both SNPs. Genotypic or allelic frequencies of ERBB2 SNPs in breast cancer patients were similar than in controls. The variant allele 655Val was significantly associated with younger age (p=0.009) particularly associated with patient family history of breast cancer (p=0.02). The 655Val allele was also more commonly found in invasive, while the variant 1170Pro in estrogen receptor positive breast cancers. Furthermore, this last SNP seems to be strictly associated with the presence of BRCA1 polymorphisms. In conclusion, these findings point to the existence of an association of ERBB2 allelic variants at both loci with specific breast tumor phenotypes and to the need of deeply investigate different gene SNPs association for risk defining.

Abstract
CONTEXT Genetic testing for inherited mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 has become integral to the care of women with a severe family history of breast or ovarian cancer, but an unknown number of patients receive negative (ie, wild-type) results when they actually carry a pathogenic BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. Furthermore, other breast cancer genes generally are not evaluated. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency and types of undetected cancer-predisposing mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, TP53, and PTEN among patients with breast cancer from high-risk families with negative (wild-type) genetic test results for BRCA1 and BRCA2. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Between 2002-2005, probands from 300 US families with 4 or more cases of breast or ovarian cancer but with negative (wild-type) commercial genetic test results for BRCA1 and BRCA2 were screened by multiple DNA-based and RNA-based methods to detect genomic rearrangements in BRCA1 and BRCA2 and germline mutations of all classes in CHEK2, TP53, and PTEN. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Previously undetected germline mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, TP53, and PTEN that predispose to breast cancer; frequencies of these mutations among families with negative genetic test results. RESULTS Of the 300 probands, 52 (17%) carried previously undetected mutations, including 35 (12%) with genomic rearrangements of BRCA1 or BRCA2, 14 (5%) with CHEK2 mutations, and 3 (1%) with TP53 mutations. At BRCA1 and BRCA2, 22 different genomic rearrangements were found, of sizes less than 1 kb to greater than 170 kb; of these, 14 were not previously described and all were individually rare. At CHEK2, a novel 5.6-kb genomic deletion was discovered in 2 families of Czechoslovakian ancestry. This deletion was found in 8 of 631 (1.3%) patients with breast cancer and in none of 367 healthy controls in the Czech and Slovak Republics. For all rearrangements, exact genomic breakpoints were determined and diagnostic primers validated. The 3 families with TP53 mutations included cases of childhood sarcoma or brain tumors in addition to multiple cases of breast cancer. CONCLUSIONS The mutational spectra of BRCA1 and BRCA2 include many high-penetrance, individually rare genomic rearrangements. Among patients with breast cancer and severe family histories of cancer who test negative (wild type) for BRCA1 and BRCA2, approximately 12% can be expected to carry a large genomic deletion or duplication in one of these genes, and approximately 5% can be expected to carry a mutation in CHEK2 or TP53. Effective methods for identifying these mutations should be made available to women at high risk.

Abstract
Assessment of family history is an important element in the identification of individuals and families likely to be at risk of hereditary cancers. It is based on the recognition of important features in the natural history of cancer syndromes. These include the occurrence of the same type of cancer in two or more close relatives, bilateral cancer in paired organs, multiple primaries in the same individual, early age at onset, a specific constellation of cancers or other physical findings associated with a known syndrome, and a mendelian pattern of inheritance. We set up a population-based screening program to identify women at increased risk of breast or ovarian cancer in a region of North-Central Italy. As a preliminary screening, 159 women with a family history of breast and ovarian cancer were recruited at the Cancer Prevention Unit of Pierantoni Hospital in Forli. Information on the number of affected individuals and the age at onset of breast or ovarian cancer in each woman's family was recorded. Thirty-nine women reported two or more first- or second-degree relatives with breast cancer under the age of 50 (25%) and 95 a single first- or second-degree relative with breast cancer under the age of 50 (60%) with or without other late onset breast cancers in the family. The remaining 25 women reported first- and second-degree relatives with breast cancer over the age of 50 (15%). There were five families with a history of ovarian cancer (3%), one of which comprised 3 affected members. Twenty-three families showed multiple cancers associated with breast cancer cases. Associated prostate and colorectal cancers were found in 5 and 4 families with a history of breast cancer, respectively. On the basis of these preliminary data, we aimed to extend the population-based screening to the whole of the Emilia-Romagna population, involving the Cancer Prevention Units of neighboring towns and adopting homogeneous family history evaluation and risk assessment criteria.

Abstract
We describe the Multiple-Dye Cleavase Fragment Length Polymorphism (MD-CFLP) method set up for a sensitive and preliminary rapid screening of BRCA1 mutations. We analysed exons 11 and 16, which are known to cover slightly more than 70% of the whole coding region of the gene, subdivided into 4 amplicons and labelled with different fluorescent dUTPs. MD-CFLP was first utilised on a panel of 30 DNA samples in which the presence of single-base substitutions or small deletions/insertions had been previously identified by direct sequencing as gold standard, in order to define the optimal conditions in terms of PCR amplification and temperature of digestion. In a second step, we blindly analysed 21 DNA samples by MD-CFLP to verify its reliability. The sensitivity and specificity of MD-CFLP were both 100% in the first study, and 80% and 94%, respectively, in the blind sample assay. Our results demonstrate the capability of the MD-CFLP method to detect DNA sequence alterations in fragments of more than 1 kb. We conclude that CFLP is a powerful tool in mutational analysis, offering reliable results in a shorter time and at a lower cost than conventional methods, and its potential can be enhanced when internal fluorescent labelling and laser detection are used.

Abstract
AIM AND BACKGROUND Recent data in the literature indicate that antigen-presenting cells (APC) are inactive in tumour tissue because of local immunosuppression. Tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) signal activation transducing mechanisms are also seriously impaired. Administration of granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) may lead to APC recovery and interleukin (IL)-2 may restore local TIL activation. Moreover, IL-2 increases the systemic lymphocyte population, an event that seems to correlate with a better prognosis. STUDY DESIGN The present phase I-II study was carried out to examine whether intralesional injection of GM-CSF followed by subcutaneous IL-2 would induce a clinical response in advanced, pretreated elderly melanoma patients. METHODS Sixteen patients over 60 years of age received intralesional GM-CSF (150 ng per lesion on day 1), generally divided between the two largest cutaneous lesions, followed by perilesional subcutaneous IL-2 (3,000,000 IU) for 5 days (days 3-7 inclusive) every 3 weeks. RESULTS Four clinical responses [two partial (PR) and two minimal (MR)] (25%), which also involved lesions that had not been directly treated, and nine cases of stable disease were observed. The response duration for PR and MR was 9, 4, 4 and 2.5 + months, respectively. Stable disease (56%) recorded in the nine patients was short-term (3-6 months). Three patients rapidly progressed after two, two and one therapy cycles, respectively. The patient who reached the best PR had a fairly high absolute lymphocyte count (1600-2400/mm3). The second one, who reached complete remission after subsequent locoregional chemotherapy and hyperthermia, however, had a low absolute lymphocyte count that had doubled by the end of treatment. Blood lymphocyte values in the other patients were too varied to allow any correlation with clinical response. Therapy was well tolerated and only mild fever was observed, with the exception of one patient who had grade 3 fever, with muscle pain and arthralgia. CONCLUSIONS Considering the very low toxicity observed, this treatment might be indicated in elderly patients for whom systemic therapy is no longer a viable option. Improved scheduling and timing could result from further studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic treatment of malignant central airway obstructions usually is done for palliation. The exact role of such a procedure as preparatory to operation remains controversial. METHODS From 1987 through 1996, 24 patients at our institution underwent tracheobronchial pulmonary resection after preliminary endoscopic treatment. During the same period, 304 patients underwent 449 operative rigid bronchoscopies for airway obstructions, most involving the use of a neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser. The indications for operation were squamous cell carcinoma in 14 patients, bronchial gland tumors in 8 patients, and papillary thyroid cancer infiltrating the trachea in 2 patients. The total resection rate was 9.5% (5% for squamous cell carcinoma, 75% for low-grade malignant bronchial tumors, and 75% for papillary thyroid cancer). The median period between operative rigid bronchoscopy and operation was 18 days. RESULTS No complications were observed after endoscopic treatment. There were two perioperative deaths (adult respiratory distress syndrome after carinal resection and pulmonary embolism after pneumonectomy) and one major complication (poor postoperative pulmonary function after pneumonectomy). No anastomotic complications were observed in the tracheobronchoplastic procedures. Follow-up was possible in every patient but 1: 6 patients died at a median of 30.5 months after operation (range, 3 to 46 months), 2 patients are alive with disease, and the rest are alive without evidence of disease at a median of 21 months (range, 2 to 61 months). CONCLUSIONS Most patients who require endoscopic therapy for malignant airway obstructions are not candidates for operative resection. Preliminary endoscopic relief of obstruction can increase operability and improve surgical results in a highly selected group of patients.
