• What else should we know to help clinicians and patients make well informed choices
• Effect of each breast CSG on response to conventional therapies compared to non-carriers
• Influence of specific breast CSGs on cancer phenotype
• Personalised treatment decisions
– Surgery timing and type
– Adjuvant treatment
– Experimental treatment
Inherited breast cancer susceptibility genes increase risk of cancer
Prospective study of Outcomes for Sporadic versus Hereditary breast cancer (POSH)• Setting: UK NHS oncology clinics 2000-2008
• Eligibility: Invasive breast cancer diagnosed ≤ 40 years
• Blood DNA samples stored at recruitment
• Oncological management decided by MDT per national guidelines
• Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment data from hospital records, tumour blocks, long term follow up
Study recruited 23% of UK population diagnosed with BC ≤40 years

Conclusions: increased frequency of ER-negative tumors and earlyrelapse in young patients but an equally poor longer-term outlookfor young patients who have ER-positive tumors with HER2-negativeor -positive disease.

Primary outcome analysis
11
• Clinical genetic services test results were collected if available from NHS genetics laboratories
• Research DNA sample available for n=2857 patients
• All available tested on a customised breast cancer gene panel included BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, PALB2and others
• BOADICEA >10% also with MLPA
Genetic testing
• 2733 patients were included
–8/2733 (0.3%) patients were known gene carriers pre cancer
–337/2733 (~12.3%) had pathogenic BRCA1(201) or BRCA2 (136) mutations
• Clinical genetic testing results were available for 388/2733 (14.2%) 182 (46.9%) had pathogenic mutations
Results – genetic testing
Significant differences in tumour characteristics BRCA1, BRCA2, BRCA-• Higher grade tumours BRCA1 > BRCA2 > BRCA- (p<0.001)
• Fewer HER2+ tumours in BRCA1 (6.8%) and BRCA2(11.2%) compared to BRCA– (29.5%) [BRCA+ vs BRCA-(p<0.001)
• More ER-ve in BRCA1 (75.5%) compared to 30.9% in BRCA-ve
• More ER+ve in BRCA2 (84.6%) compared to 69.1% in BRCA-ve

Hazard ratio changes over time
21
New primary cancer incidence - all• 151 contralateral breast tumours
• 37/201 (18·4%) in BRCA1 • 17/137 (12·4%) in BRCA2 carriers • 97/2395 (4·1%) in non-carriers
• 3 ovarian cancer, 1 PPC
• All in BRCA1 carriers
• Potentially preventable with BRRM and BRRSO
22
Excluding all patients with second primary BRCA-attributable cancers
23
• Medium term, there is no significant difference in survival between BRCA gene carriers and non-carriers amongst symptomatic young breast cancer patients.
• Deaths from primary breast cancer are higher than the incidence of new primary cancers in the first 10 years
• Breast surveillance (MRI) or BRRM and timely BRRSO should improve overall longer term survival for BRCA carriers who survive their initial cancer
Is there a difference?
Some other genes
TP53 – high risk rare
CHEK2 – moderate risk
p53 – the guardian of the genome (David Lane, Nature July 1992)
Somatic mutations frequent in TNBC and HER2+ BC
Germline pathogenic variants in TP53 gene
• First described as cause of Li Frameni Syndrome (Malkin, Science 1990)
• Variable frequency found on panel testing BC patients
• Association with HER2+ breast cancer (Wilson et al J Med Genet 2010)
• Densely sclerotic tumours (Packwood et al JPCR 2019)26
POSH cohort findings• ≤ 40 with invasive breast cancer tested and validated
• Pathogenic TP53 variants amongst all cases 15/2304 (0.6%)
• Pathogenic TP53 variants amongst TNBC = 1/588 (0.2%)
• Pathogenic TP53 variants amongst HER2+ = 14/664 (2%)
• Pathogenic TP53 variants reported no FH = 9/14 (64%)
• No difference in survival but very small numbers

Phenotype in patients with germline CHEK2 pathogenic variant
28
Presenting tumours were significantly more likely to have axillary nodes involved (p=0.0098) and to be grade 2hormone receptor positive (p=0.029)
CHEK2+ve n=53/2344 (2.3%)
Symptomatic early onset CHEK2+ve breast cancer associated with an adverse prognosis
