Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our results suggest that BRCA2 is a very infrequent target for somatic inactivation in breast and ovarian carcinomas, similar to the results obtained for BRCA1. 8640235 1996
CUI: C1140680
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Unlike BRCA1, however, which confers a high risk to both breast and ovarian cancer, the incidence of ovarian cancer appears to be much lower In BRCA2-linked families, causing uncertainty as to the relevance of BRCA2 to hereditary ovarian cancer. 8665505 1996

Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The same BRCA2 mutation appears to be associated with different cancer phenotypes in this population including male and female breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreas cancer and ovarian cancer. 8673089 1996

Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Mutations in BRCA2 are thought to account for as much as 35% of all inherited breast cancer as wall as a proportion of inherited ovarian cancer. 8673091 1996

Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 Biomarker disease BEFREE A role for BRCA2 in sporadic breast and ovarian cancer has been suggested by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies which show frequent LOH in the BRCA2 region at chromosome 13q12. 8705994 1996
CUI: C1140680
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of ovary
Malignant neoplasm of ovary
0.800 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our results indicate that BRCA2 confers a very high risk of breast cancer and is responsible for a substantial fraction of breast and ovarian cancer in Iceland, but only a small proportion of other cancers. 8706004 1996
