Slide6When to consider hereditary cancer?
Family history may include: Same cancer, 2 or more close relatives (same side of family)
Multiple generations affected
Earlier age at diagnosis
Multiple primary
tumours
Rare cancers
Constellation of
tumours
consistent with specific cancer syndrome (e.g. colorectal and endometrial; breast and ovarian;
polyposis
)

Slide16Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP/AFAP)Autosomal dominantMost common polyposis syndrome (1/8000
)Accounts for < 1% of all CRCConsider if: >10 synchronous adenomas or > 15 non-synchronous adenomasGermline mutation in APC gene (30% de novo) Clinical diagnosis: early onset of 100+ polyps, other clinical features (desmoid tumours, CHRPE)
Lifetime cancer risk almost 100% by age 50
Risk of other
cancers – upper GI, brain, thyroid
Slide17MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP)Autosomal recessiveConsider if polyposis seen only in siblings
Implications of “carrier” statusUsually < 100 adenomas, later onset than FAPMay also see hyperplastic polyps, SSPs, TSAsIncreased risk for duodenal cancer as well as colorectal cancer

Slide37Germline Genetic TestingIndex test:
1st genetic test in familytrying to identify a specific gene mutationusually affected individual (relevant cancer dx)usually blood test; sometimes begin with tumour tissue
Carrier

test
:
f
or specific mutation known in the family
Slide38Why consider genetic testing? Confirm clinical diagnosis for patientInform clinical managementOffer carrier testing to family membersClarify clinical management
Children Adults
Slide39Potential Harms/Limitationsimpact on family dynamics/relationshipsincreased cancer worry – self, others
privacy concerns – family pressure “survivor guilt”false sense of security uncertain significance of some results

What are the possible index results?
Slide43APC+ Clinical ManagementAnnual colonoscopy after polyps detected (until colectomy)Upper endoscopy at age 25 and every 1-3 years depending on results
Annual physical exam (abdomen, thyroid)
Slide44Genetic testing for children?Usual approach is to offer only if: Genetic test result can be adequately interpretedChildhood onset of diseaseEffective
interventionsRelevant for: APC, JPS (SMAD4), others
Slide45APC and childrensignificant risk for hepatoblastoma
consider physical exam, abdominal ultrasound and AFP q3-6 months until age 5flexible sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy every 1-2 years starting at age 10-12
Slide46Additional genetic testing? If initial (single gene) test does not identify a mutation: sporadic?“familial“?
missed mutation?
Slide47Shift from testing single gene(s) to multi-gene panels
Current approach to genetic testing

Slide62Hereditary cancer is rare (<10%).
Most hereditary polyposis/cancer syndromes are inherited in an autosomal dominant
manner, but not all
.
Not everyone with hereditary risk will develop cancer.
Options for risk reduction and/or early detection are available.
Hereditary risk can come from either the maternal or paternal side.
Genetic
testing usually starts with an affected family
member.
If your patient’s personal or family history is suspicious, refer and we will assess!
