High-Risk Cancer Genetics Program. Although approximately 70% of cancers develop by chance, some individuals have a genetic pre-disposition to developing the disease either because of an inherited abnormal gene (hereditary cancer) or a combination of genetic and environmental factors specific to their family (familial cancer). If you or a loved one has a family history of cancer, Memorial Cancer Institute’s High-Risk Cancer Genetics Program can help shed light on your cancer risk so you can make informed decisions about your health and focus on cancer prevention.. Our comprehensive program identifies and manages individuals with genetic predispositions to developing cancer, including those with an increased risk of acquiring the disease due to ancestry, family history or personal risk factors (such as atypia or carcinoma in situ).. A Specialized, Dedicated Team of Experts. By employing a multidisciplinary approach that includes cancer genetics specialists, oncologists, as well as primary care physicians, our team works closely with each patient and their family to develop a personalized care plan. Team members include: Board-certified oncologists. Cancer risk assessment counselor. Integrative medicine specialists. Oncology social workers. Registered dieticians. Together, our highly qualified specialists are committed to identifying individuals who are at a higher-than-average risk of developing cancer and to offer counseling and risk-reduction strategies for cancer prevention and/or early detection. We provide a range of diagnostic and support services including: Cancer Risk Assessment counseling. Hereditary cancer risk assessment (with a specific interest in the genetic factors that influence breast, colorectal and gynecological cancers). Genetic testing. Access to clinical research studies (for diagnosed cancer patients. Please consult with your healthcare provider to see if our program is right for you, especially if you have a personal and/or family history of one or more of the following: Cancer (breast, uterine, colon) diagnosed at an early age (less than 50). Ovarian/fallopian tube cancer diagnosed at any age. Multiple family members with similar cancers (breast, ovarian, colon, uterine). Two or more primary cancers in the same person. A rare cancer such as male breast cancer or sarcoma. Triple negative breast cancer diagnosed before age 60. Family history of known genetic mutation. Breast biopsy showing atypia, lobular carcinoma in situ. Multiple benign breast biopsies. Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. What to Expect. Our cancer genetics team will: Determine if you meet the criteria for risk assessment and/or genetic counseling. Assist in determining your insurance coverage for office visits and testing. Meet with you to conduct a personalized cancer risk assessment consultation. Obtain prior authorizations as required for genetic testing or additional screening as recommended. Review assessment results, explain findings, and together create a surveillance and/or intervention schedule. With your permission, share the plan with your other physicians to ensure they have all the required information to make clinical or diagnostic suggestions. With your permission, possibly present your genetic profile (not your identity) to a national group of genetic experts (Genetic Tumor Board) to determine if they have additional insight or expertise to offer. If so, this will be shared with you and your physician team accordingly.

With a family history of breast and ovarian cancer, Alana Kapust worked with Dr. Nadine Tung, Director of BIDMC’s Cancer Genetics and Prevention Program, to create a plan that dramatically reduced her cancer risk.
Genetic screenings of more than 50,000 people found that more than 80 percent of those who carry a known gene variant for breast, ovarian, prostate or pancreatic cancer were unaware of their risk. Researchers noted that most people carrying cancer -associated variants in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes only realize they’re at increased risk for cancer when a friend’s or relative’s diagnosis prompts them to. Most People Don’t Know if They Have Genetic Risk for Cancer. WEDNESDAY, Sept. 26, 2018 Most people carrying genes that put them at risk for cancer don’t realize it, new research suggests.

No genetic test can say if you will develop cancer for sure. But it can tell you if you have a higher risk than most people. Only some people with a gene mutation will develop cancer.
What does this mean?(See the Hereditary Cancer Syndromes section for more information about inherited genetic mutations that can cause cancer.) Most cancer risk (and protective) factors are initially identified in epidemiology studies. In these studies, scientists look at large groups of people and compare those who develop cancer with those who don’t.

Even though you may be a genetic reciprient for cancer, there is a highly successful way of dealing with it. Your DNA is wrapped up in a package called the Genome. Beyond the Genome is called Epigenetics!
Lunasin is the first natural dietary ingredient to have a direct epigenetic.

Nevertheless, some people who develop cancer have none of the known risk factors.

That is, if people learn that cancer develops because of genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors, they might think that getting cancer is nearly inevitable and avoid making lifestyle changes that could reduce their risk for cancer.
Therefore, especially for cancer patients with family history of disease, genetic tests help reveal important information about the prognosis, the risk of metastasis, and sometimes even the possible success of the treatment.
In most instances, there are only a few individuals with cancer in a family, and there is doubt about whether a cancer susceptibility gene is responsible or not.
Even when an exposure is clearly required for a particular kind of cancer, genetic factors often play a role in determining who, among exposed individuals, develops that cancer.
