- W1981103412 abstract "So far, we have not performed genetic testing on moderate cancer risk, such as CHEK2 testing for breast cancer. We feel that this would lead to a large number of the population being positive and that it is unlikely that all carriers would be offered surveillance. Furthermore, the economic burden from surveillance for moderate risk may not be acceptable in a situation where patients who already have cancer would not always be able to get the most expensive and most effective treatments available.Allan SpigelmanProfessor University of New South Wales, Surgical Professorial Unit, St Vincent's Hospital Clinical School, NSW, AustraliaCorresponding author: Director Cancer Services St Vincent's and Mater Health Sydney, NSW, Australia, phone: +61283822354; +61283822328, e-mail: ua.moc.stnecnivts@namlegipsaIt is an interesting pilot study that requires replication on a larger scale.Walter WeberBetriebs- und Forschungslaboratorium, Zweckverband Landeswasserversorgung, GermanyCorresponding author: Medical Oncology, Heuberg 16, CH-4051 Basel, e-mail: hc.niweulb@recnacThis is an important step towards defining genetic risk factors of breast cancer. As a medical oncologist I expect that downstream functions of such common genetic variants will be potential targets for new drugs [1]. Old drugs could also become new drugs [2]. Pharmacoge-netics, the hereditary basis for inter-individual differences in drug effect, will predict patients at risk for extreme toxicity and altered efficacy of chemotherapy [3,4].Vladimir ZajacCancer Research Institute, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Laboratory of Cancer Genetics, Bratislava, Slovak RepublicCorresponding author: Cancer Research Institute, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava, Slovakia, e-mail: ks.abvas@cajaz.rimidalvIt is practically impossible to find a paper in which the authors raise the basic issue - why there is such a high frequency of hereditary forms of cancer in the human population. I highly appreciate your approach and courage to go into this basic problem. I think that your hypothesis may bring a new impulse for the solution of this crucial question.I have a feeling that at the present time human genetics, after a very dramatic period of approximately 20 years, is entering a period of recession. The reason is that we are not able to answer the aforementioned question.Why do so many mutations in a very short part of human DNA result in various types of cancer diseases? This is mainly the case of the APC gene in the part of the MCR where there are concentrated about 70% of all APC germ-line mutations. The answer that this part of the DNA is special and is predisposed to mutation is not correct. We need to try to find another explanation. I am trying to do so.I think that you are absolutely right that there should be something common in predisposition to all malignancies. Is this genetic polymorphisms? Probably yes.Like many researchers who are interested in human genetics, I have a hypothesis as well. This idea has developed over many years and I suppose that it may open new perspectives into human genetics. At present I am working experimentally to confirm it. My idea is rather different from yours.So, there are at the moment two hypotheses!!! Interesting!!!And both are from Eastern Europe!!! It is funny that new impulses are coming from this, still underrated part of Europe.Maybe this is the future." @default.
