In 2013, American actress Angelina Jolie, who has never had cancer before, decided to have a preventive double mastectomy because she has a BRCA1 gene mutation, which puts her at increased risk (87%) of developing breast cancer. And, in 2015, she had her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed to reduce her risk of developing ovarian cancer, the disease that killed her mother at the age of just 56.
During that time, there were only two genes that were usually tested for cancer risk in an individual – BRCA1 and BRCA2.

Spearheading breast cancer research among Asian women


Spearheading breast cancer research among Asian women
Meera Murugesan
CANCER Research Malaysia and the Clinical Investigation Centre (CIC) of University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) have launched a clinical trial called AUROR , in a study with the National University Hospital Singapore, to test if checkpoint immunotherapy is effective in treating breast cancer in Asian patients.
Cancer cells produce invisibility cloaks to hide from our immune system's "checkpoints", allowing them to grow and spread.
Checkpoint immunotherapy activates the immune system to recognise cancer cells as cells that should be killed, and this approach has already resulted in long-term remission for melanoma, lung, and other cancers, but its effect on breast cancer is still understudied.
