Breast Cancer Risk Modification in Women with Pathogenic Variants in BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, CHEK2, and PALB2.

ABSTRACT:

Significance

There is limited information on whether established risk factors increase breast cancer risk from PVs. In the WHI, PV carriers had no substantial (≥2-fold) increase with most risk factors, except potentially MHT in ATM or CHEK2 carriers. The results may inform counseling and research on MHT.
