Oral contraceptives and the risk of breast cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers

TL;DR: Among BRCA1 mutation carriers, women who first used oral contraceptives before 1975, who used them before age 30, or who use them for 5 or more years may have an increased risk of early-onset breast cancer.

RAD51 135G→C Modifies Breast Cancer Risk among BRCA2 Mutation Carriers: Results from a Combined Analysis of 19 Studies

TL;DR: RAD51 is the first gene to be reliably identified as a modifier of risk among BRCA1/2 mutation carriers and it is determined that the 135G-->C variant affects RAD51 splicing within the 5' UTR.
