Clinical trials: Genetic Predisposition to Disease
Prostate Cancer, Genetic Predisposition
Prostate Tissue BioBank
Prostate cancer is also the most common cancer in men with inherited pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2. Beyond BRCA1/2, other genes are known to increase the risk of prostate cancer, including ATM, TP53 and HOXB13.
