Study: Genetic modifiers of breast-cancer risk in BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carriers, linked to Gynecologic Oncology Group resources and the CIMBA consortium. 12
Design and measurements: This observational project proposed using existing DNA and clinical data from GOG-0199 participants, testing selected genetic variants, and combining coded clinical and epidemiological information with other centers' data. The aim was to investigate whether additional variants modify cancer risk among carriers. 12
What is established: The inspected record is withdrawn, with a July 2017 update. No variant-specific risk estimate or validated clinical prediction test was verified for this identifier. It is not a treatment trial, and a planned association analysis cannot establish that a genetic test improves patient outcomes. 12
