Understanding familial risk of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a deadly disease that is the result of an accumulation of sequential genetic alterations. These genetic alterations can either be inherited, such as pathogenic germline variants that are associated with an increased risk of cancer, or acquired, such as somatic mutations that occur during the lifetime of an individual. Understanding the genetic basis of inherited risk of PDAC is essential to advancing patient care and outcomes through improved clinical surveillance, early detection initiatives, and targeted therapies. In this review we discuss factors associated with an increased risk of PDAC, the prevalence of genetic variants associated with an increased risk in patients with PDAC, estimates of PDAC risk in carriers of pathogenic germline variants in genes associated with an increased risk of PDAC. The role of common variants in pancreatic cancer risk will also be discussed.
期刊介绍:
In recent years clinical cancer genetics has become increasingly important. Several events, in particular the developments in DNA-based technology, have contributed to this evolution. Clinical cancer genetics has now matured to a medical discipline which is truly multidisciplinary in which clinical and molecular geneticists work together with clinical and medical oncologists as well as with psycho-social workers.
Due to the multidisciplinary nature of clinical cancer genetics most papers are currently being published in a wide variety of journals on epidemiology, oncology and genetics. Familial Cancer provides a forum bringing these topics together focusing on the interests and needs of the clinician.
The journal mainly concentrates on clinical cancer genetics. Most major areas in the field shall be included, such as epidemiology of familial cancer, molecular analysis and diagnosis, clinical expression, treatment and prevention, counselling and the health economics of familial cancer.
