Journal ArticleDOI

Breast-cancer risk in families with mutations in PALB2

TL;DR: Loss-of-function mutations have been identified in the PALB2 gene that also increase the risk of breast cancer and interacts with BRCa1 and BRCA2 genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Germline Pathogenic Variants in Cancer Predisposition Genes Among Women With Invasive Lobular Carcinoma of the Breast.

TL;DR: The study establishes that PVs in ATM, BRCA2, CDH1, CHEK2 and PALB2 are associated with an increased risk of ILC, whereas BRCa1 PVs are not, and multigene panel testing may be appropriate for women with ILC.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Abstract P6-13-08: Palbociclib and paclitaxel on an alternating schedule for advanced breast cancer: Results of a phase Ib trial

TL;DR: The high response rate warrants a randomized trial to determine the incremental benefit over T alone and the optimal combination dose is 75 mg of P and 80mg/m2 of weekly T on an alternating dosing schedule.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcomes following breast conservation versus mastectomy in BRCA1/2 carriers with early-stage breast cancer

TL;DR: This data indicates that BCT and mastectomy should be considered as separate treatments for breast cancer in women with at least a 2-year history of PSA infection.
