    Genetic risk score for invasive breast cancer after DCIS

    Genetic risk score linked to invasive breast cancer after DCIS/LCIS Researchers at King’s College London have for the first time demonstrated a connection between a person’s genetic risk score and their risk of developing invasive breast cancer after abnormal cells are found in breast tissue. The study, published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention and…

    Genetic risk score could predict progression to invasive breast cancer after DCIS/LCIS

    Understanding the new link between genetics and cancer risk A major UK study led by researchers at King’s College London has revealed a potential game changer in breast cancer care: a genetic risk score may help predict which women with pre‑invasive breast cells are more likely to develop invasive breast cancer. Published in Cancer Epidemiology,…
