Germline DNA Sequencing Reveals Novel Mutations Predictive of Overall Survival in a Cohort of Pancreatic Cancer Patients
Background and Aims Family history of BRCA-related tumors may correlate with response to chemotherapy and overall survival (OS) in pancreatic cancer. The frequency of germline mutations has been reported in patients predominantly under the age of 60 or with strong family history. We examine the incidence of deleterious germline mutations and compare the chemotherapy responses and OS in an…
