Identification of responsible genes and development of standardized medicine for familial breast cancer by genetic analysis with NGS technology

Aims: To clarify risk of germline variants of known causal genes for Hereditary Breast Ovarian Cancer Syndrome in Japan by combinatorial analysis of somatic and germline variants in the breast cancer tissue. Methods: Target caputure analysis by using Illumina HiSeq 2000; the panel genes are 119 genes including 30 HBOC known causal genes. Participants/Materials: 108 whole blood and 124 primary tumor samples from familial breast cancer patients.
