Familial Cancer Genetics
Cancer Genetics
• 5-10% of all cancer clearly linked to an inherited gene
alteration
• If cancer seen at younger ages (before 50) possible that
inherited genes increased susceptibility
• Some genetic conditions increase someone’s risk of getting
several different types of cancer at young age (eg. LiFraumeni syndrome, MEN 1)
• Some gene alterations lead to uncontrolled cell growth:
– tumour suppressor genes
– oncogenes
– DNA repair genes
Breast Cancer
• BRCA 1 & BRCA 2 testing may be available for people at
high risk, but others genes known to be involved
• If gene alteration found, woman at up to 80% lifetime risk
of developing breast cancer
• Carry risk of other cancers; ovary (BRCA 1 = 44%, BRCA 2 =
27%), and a slightly increased risk prostate, pancreas and
some other cancers
• Dominantly inherited through families (ie. only one copy
of the altered gene needed for it to have effect)

Referral for family history of cancer
• Young age at onset,
• Pattern of similar tumours on one side of the
family (or multiple primaries in one individual)
• Use national/local guidelines e.g. NICE familial
breast cancer
• Remember ethnicity e.g. – Chinese, Indian,
Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry
• If in doubt - Contact the Clinical Genetic Service
Patient Information
• Detailed information of affected family
members required
• Patient will receive information regarding level
of risk and options
• Will not necessarily mean a genetic test
