Whole exome sequencing identifies FANCM as a susceptibility gene for estrogen-receptor-negative breast cancer in Hispanic/Latina women

Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancers globally. Genetic testing facilitates screening and informs targeted risk-reduction and treatments. However, genes included in testing panels are from European-ancestry studies. We conducted a pooled case-control analysis in self-identifi...
