Cancer incidence and surveillance strategies in individuals with RASopathies
RASopathies are a set of clinical syndromes that have molecular and clinical overlap. Genetically, these syndromes are defined by germline pathogenic variants in RAS/MAPK pathway genes resulting in activation of this pathway. Clinically, their common molecular signature leads to comparable phenotypes, including cardiac anomalies, neurologic disorders and notably, elevated cancer risk. Cancer risk in individuals with RASopathies has been estimated from retrospective reviews and cohort studies. For example, in Costello syndrome, cancer incidence is significantly elevated over the general population, largely due to solid tumors. In some forms of Noonan syndrome, cancer risk is also elevated over the general population and is enriched for hematologic malignancies. Thus, cancer surveillance guidelines have been developed to monitor for the occurrence of such cancers in individuals with some RASopathies. These include abdominal ultrasound and urinalyses for individuals with Costello syndrome, while complete blood counts and splenic examination are recommended in Noonan syndrome. Improved cancer risk estimates and refinement of surveillance recommendations will improve the care of individuals with RASopathies.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Medical Genetics, Part C of the American Journal of Medical Genetics (AJMG) , serves as both an educational resource and review forum, providing critical, in-depth retrospectives for students, practitioners, and associated professionals working in fields of human and medical genetics. Each issue is guest edited by a researcher in a featured area of genetics, offering a collection of thematic reviews from specialists around the world. Seminars in Medical Genetics publishes four times per year.
