Current gene panels account for nearly all homologous recombination repair-associated multiple-case breast cancer families

Abstract It was hypothesized that variants in underexplored homologous recombination repair (HR) genes could explain unsolved multiple-case breast cancer (BC) families. We investigated HR deficiency (HRD)-associated mutational signatures and second hits in tumor DNA from familial BC cases. No candid...
