CHARACTERISATION OF PRE-MALIGNANT BREAST LESIONS

Grant number: 1063092 | Funding period: 2014 - 2017

Abstract

Understanding the full repertoire of genetic events that underlie the development of breast cancer may allow development of prevention strategies. This study will analyse genetic data of benign breast lesions that may be non-obligate precursors of breast cancer. Importantly, clinical management of these lesions is difficult. A reliable method of predicting the risk of progression to cancer would be a significant advance, with benefits to individual patients and also the health system.
