This has paved for the way for developing a new gene test for families where pancreatic cancer occurs in multiple family members. [18] Tests for PALB2 have been developed by Ambry Genetics [19] and Myriad Genetics [20] that are now available. Prophylactic mastectomy should be considered for women that had breast cancer and a PALB2 mutation. [21 ...

Myriad Genetics, Inc. is an American genetic testing and precision medicine company based in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Myriad employs a number of proprietary technologies that permit doctors and patients to understand the genetic basis of human disease and the role that genes play in the onset, progression and treatment of disease.
All individuals who are found to carry the inactivated familial CYLD gene mutation should receive genetic counselling which may include: information on limitations in the ability to predict the severity of CCS between individuals, families, and generations; family planning; prenatal testing; preimplantation genetic diagnosis; and the need for ...
The global search for a genetic basis for breast and ovarian cancer began in earnest in 1988. In 1990, at a meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics, a team of scientists led by Mary-Claire King, from the University of California, Berkeley announced the localization through linkage analysis of a gene associated with increased risk for breast cancer to the long arm of chromosome 17.

Oncogenomics is a sub-field of genomics that characterizes cancer-associated genes.It focuses on genomic, epigenomic and transcript alterations in cancer. Cancer is a genetic disease caused by accumulation of DNA mutations and epigenetic alterations leading to unrestrained cell proliferation and neoplasm formation.
This gives a wider and more global view of cancer genetics, while these data are usually dispersed. [3] It includes a large iconography of about 35,000 images. Dan van Dyke said "This is one stop shopping that unifies cancer genetics information", and Lidia Larizza said that the Atlas was an "interdisciplinary resource".
Molecular oncology is an interdisciplinary medical specialty at the interface of medicinal chemistry and oncology that refers to the investigation of the chemistry of cancer and tumors at the molecular scale. Also the development and application of molecularly targeted therapies.
