High- and Moderate-Risk Variants Among Breast Cancer Patients and Healthy Donors Enrolled in Multigene Panel Testing in a Population of Central Russia. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
The BLM, NBN, and MUTYH genes did not demonstrate associations with BC risk. Finding deleterious mutations in BC patients is important for diagnosis and management; in controls, it opens up the possibility of prevention and early diagnostics.

Proline variants in the BRCA1 coiled-coil domain disrupt folding and binding to PALB2. (PubMed, Protein Sci)
Structural analysis indicates that all BRCA1 mutations to proline tested disrupt α-helix formation and therefore are not well tolerated even when located at positions outside of the PALB2-binding interface. This assay and the structural hypothesis described will be helpful for assessing risk for variants identified in the future in the BRCA1/PALB2 interaction domains.

Four pathogenic variants co-occurring in a MINAS early-onset breast cancer. (PubMed, Tumori)
Currently, there are no predictive tools available to determine organ-specific cancer risk in MINAS patients. Given the uncertainty in predicting the phenotypic effect of multiple variants in CSGs, ongoing clinical surveillance and sharing data from complex cases are crucial for improving risk stratification in this condition.

Response to Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in the treatment of hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC): a case report. (PubMed, J Pak Med Assoc)
This dynamic treatment not only led to nearly complete remission of high-grade ovarian serous cancer but also triggered regression in grade-2 invasive ductal breast cancer after just a few rounds of chemotherapy. Consequently, what started as palliative care evolved into a curative triumph.

Severe Radiation-Induced Brachial Plexopathy: A Case Report on Radiation Toxicity in a Patient With Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. (PubMed, Cureus)
Here, we present a case of a 50-year-old woman with stage IIIA invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast who had genetic testing revealing pathogenic ATM mutations (c.5290del and c.4396C>G) and a PALB2 mutation (c.1619dup). While guidelines suggest that adjuvant radiation therapy is safe for patients with ATM mutations, this patient experienced severe radiation-induced toxicities, including brachial plexopathy. These ATM mutations have not previously been described as imparting severe radiation-associated toxicities.

Elucidating acquired PARP inhibitor resistance in advanced prostate cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Cell)

Prevalence of BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 genomic alterations among 924 Taiwanese breast cancer assays with tumor-only targeted sequencing: extended data analysis from the VGH-TAYLOR study (SABCS 2024)
This study reported a cohort of Taiwanese breast cancers harboring mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 through tumor-only sequencing, which underscores the impact of these genes on breast cancer risk and potential therapeutic opportunities. Tumor-only sequencing has enabled a greater number of patients to uncover their genomic alterations, offering additional insights for management strategies. These include recommendations for germline testing and the prospective utilization of PARP inhibitors to augment treatment efficacy.

Serial circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assessment to predict treatment response and identify genomic evolution in patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC). (SABCS 2024)
Decrease in TF, but not maxVAF, at 1-2 weeks after starting next therapy is correlated with clinical response at time of restaging and can provide an early assessment of treatment response. Genomic evolution with both emerging and disappearing alterations, including in genes clinically actionable in breast cancer as well as genes likely associated with CH, was frequently identified by serial liquid biopsies, both at time of progression and while on treatment.

Genomic and transcriptomic analyses of residual invasive triple-neg breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in prospective MIRINAE trial (a randomized phase II trial of adjuvant atezolizumab + capecitabine versus capecitabine; KCSG-BR18-21). (SABCS 2024)
TIL-high tumors were associated with immune-enriched cancer including BLIA and TME subtypes. Ongoing analysis of invasive disease-free survival as the primary endpoint in each arm of MIRINAE trial and the role of atezolizumab in association with genomic features will provide deeper insights into the role of ICIs as adjuvant therapy.

Prevalence of actionable genomic alterations (GA) and predictive value of tumor mutational burden (TMB) for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) effectiveness in HR(+)HER2(-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) (SABCS 2024)
Background: Pembrolizumab, an anti-PD1 antibody ICI is an FDA-approved option for patients with HR(+)HER2(-) MBC who have exhausted standard of care options and have high TMB (≥10 mut/mb, FoundationOne®CDx)... About 70% of TBx harbor at least one GA with established clinical utility. Pts with TMB10+ vs. TMB<10 had more favorable PFS and rwOS on ICI.

Clinical Outcomes and the 21-Gene Recurrence Score Assay in Early-Stage Breast Cancer Associated with CHEK2, ATM and PALB2 Germline Pathogenic Variants (SABCS 2024)
Our data demonstrate that higher Oncotype RS, CHEK2 mutations, lymphatic and vascular invasion, and higher Ki67 levels were identified as predictors of poorer RFS. Conversely, older age (>50 years), adjuvant ET, and adjuvant XRT were associated with improved RFS. Importantly, the presence of ATM, CHEK2, or PALB2 mutations did not significantly impact OS.

Understanding genetic variations associated with familial breast cancer. (PubMed, World J Surg Oncol)
Familial breast cancer has been linked to several genetic diseases and mutations, according to studies. Screening for genetic disorders is recommended by National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommendations. Evaluation of breast cancer candidate variations and risk loci may improve individual risk assessment. Only high- and moderate-risk gene variations have clinical guidelines, whereas low-risk gene variants require additional investigation. With increasing use of NGS technology, more linkage with rare genes is being discovered.

An unexpectedly high mutation rate of total 2% was found in the NC cohort but it was only 0.3% and 0.5% in the HR cohort and CC cohort, respectively. Our results show a clinical need to enhance genetic testing of unselected breast cancer patients to identify the high-risk patients.

Clinical Impact of Constitutional Genomic Testing on Current Breast Cancer Care. (PubMed, Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol))
However, the lack of long-term clinical outcome data and incomplete understanding of variants, particularly for moderate-risk genes limits clinical application. In this review, we have summarized the key functions, risks, and prognosis of breast-cancer-predisposing genes listed in the National Health Service (NHS) England National Genomic Test Directory for inherited breast cancer and provide an update on current management implications including surgery, radiotherapy, systemic treatments, and post-treatment surveillance.

CLINICAL AND BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF T-CELL RECEPTOR REPERTOIRE IN PATIENTS WITH BREAST CANCER (GBCC 2024)
These results demonstrate that the TCR repertoire is associated with characteristics, genetic alterations, and clinical outcomes. Monitoring changes in the TCR repertoire may serve as a prognostic biomarker for breast cancer patients.

PALB2-mutated human mammary cells display a broad spectrum of morphological and functional abnormalities induced by increased TGFβ signaling. (PubMed, Cell Mol Life Sci)
KRT14-positive cells are also more abundant with DNA damage than KRT14-negative cells. The obtained results indicate comprehensive cellular changes upon PALB2 mutations, even in the presence of half dosage of wild type PALB2 and demonstrate how PALB2 mutations may predispose their carriers to malignancy.
