Three pathogenic variants, BRCA2 [c.6509A>G; c.7879A>T; c.5574_5577delAATT] and PALB2 [c.1592delT], were identified in high-risk genes important for breast cancer prediction. Identification of population-based variants may improve breast cancer screening and management in Sri Lanka.

Novel Insights into the Enigmatic Genetics of Male Breast Cancer in China. (PubMed, Pathophysiology)

As the inaugural germline genomic investigation of MaBC in a Han Chinese population, this work reveals clinically actionable alterations with diagnostic and therapeutic implications. These discoveries not only advance our understanding of MaBC's molecular architecture but also underscore the critical need for dedicated research into this malignancy.

Differential Response to 177Lu-PSMA-617 in Patients with Tumor Suppressor Gene-Mutated Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, J Nucl Med)

TP53, PTEN, and RB1 mutations were linked to inferior overall survival in LuPSMA-treated patients and may serve as prognostic biomarkers. Prospective validation is required to establish their predictive value.
