Two large breast cancer case-control studies of women from the United States, Europe, and Asia identified eight genes that had significant associations with breast cancer risk
BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ARD1, RAD51C, RAD51D, ATM, and CHEK2.
Both studies were published in the
New England Journal of Medicine. The first, by Fergus J. Couch, PhD, of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and colleagues, looked at a panel of 28 cancer-predisposition genes in approximately 64,000 women from the United States (32,247 with breast cancer).
