On the Hunt for the Missed Genetic Causes of Multiple Primary Tumors
Improved cancer screening and treatment programs have led to an increased survivorship of patients with cancer, but consequently also to the rise in number of individuals with multiple primary tumors (MPT). Germline testing is the first approach investigating the cause of MPT, as a positive result provides a diagnosis and proper clinical management to the affected individual and their family. Negative or inconclusive genetic results could suggest non-genetic causes, but are negative genetic results truly negative? Herein, we discuss the potential sources of missed genetic causes and highlight the trove of knowledge MPT can provide. See related article by Borja et al., p. 209
期刊介绍:
Cancer Prevention Research publishes original studies, reviews, and perspectives in the field of cancer prevention. Its scope includes the molecular and cellular biology of premalignancy and early lesions; genetic and environmental risk factors; risk assessment and reduction; early detection research (cancer screening and diagnosis); and preventive interventions (chemoprevention, immunoprevention, and others) to intercept cancer development at early stages prior to initiation, promotion, or progression. The journal comprises preclinical, clinical, and translational research, with special attention given to molecular discoveries and an emphasis on building a translational bridge between the basic and clinical sciences.
