    Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women


    About 4% of breast cancer cases carry high-risk pathogenic germline gene variants

    This study aims to evaluate the contribution of PALB2 pathogenic variants (PALB2-PGV) and CHEK2 c.


    PALB2 pathogenic variants (PALB2-PGV) and CHEK2 c.


    A total of 3127 female patients with histologically confirmed invasive breast cancer, carcinoma in situ and epithelial non-mucinous ovarian cancer with germline PALB2-PGV and CHEK2-1100delC test results and 1567 female controls were included; Breast cancer pathology in PALB2-PGV cases of extended family


    Detection of the pathology and detection rate of PALB2 and CHEK2-1100delC PGV

    Detection of the pathology and detection rate of PALB2 and CHEK2-1100delC PGV

    In this study, 35 cases of PALB2 and 44 cases of CHEK2-1100delC PGV were detected (odds ratio [OR] PALB2 breast-ovary: 5.


    A total of 35 cases of PALB2 and 44 cases of CHEK2-1100delC PGV were detected.


    The incidence of PALB2 and CHEK2-1100delC PGV in BRCA1/2 negative families with different Manchester scores

    The incidence of PALB2 and CHEK2-1100delC PGV in BRCA1/2 negative families with different Manchester scores

    The probability of PALB2-PGV increases with the increase of Manchester Score (MS) (MS<15: 29/1762; MS 20-39: 4/520); but CHEK2-1100delC does not have this phenomenon


    PALB2-PGV showed perfect separation among the 20/20 first-degree relatives of breast cancer patients, but the ratio of CHEK2-1100delC was only 7/13

    All in all, PALB2-PGV and CHEK2-1100delC together can explain approximately 2.


    PALB2-PGV and CHEK2-1100delC together can explain about 2.
