“…Contralateral breast cancer (CBC) is less common than unilateral breast cancer (UBC) and it has been supposed to have mainly a genetic cause (Mack et al 2002 ). Indeed, women carrying mutations in BRCA1 , BRCA2 and CHECK genes have a higher risk of developing CBC and the estimation of the risk is higher in carriers of germinal mutations, confirming the strong genetic contribution (Robson et al 2017 ; Kramer et al 2020 ). Based on these evidence, the finding of altered E2F1 CNVs in patients with CBC suggests that this structural variant, likely inherited, as well as it occurs in inherited germline mutations of BRCA genes, may contribute to an increased risk of CBC.…”

“… 26 CIMBA includes 81 individual studies of which the majority of the participants were ascertained through cancer genetics clinics. 26 Although studies in CIMBA include individuals of non-European ancestry, our analyses were, due to power considerations (small numbers available for analyses and expected lower estimates for the PRS 313 in Asian ancestry based on results of women in the general breast cancer population 19 ), restricted to women of European ancestry with available array genotyping data (31,195 women of 67 studies).…”

“… 11 Details about the quality control procedures and correlation between the arrays have been described previously. 19 , 24 , 28 31 European ancestry was determined using genetic data and multidimensional scaling. More detailed information about the genotyping and PRS calculation is provided in the Supplementary methods .…”

“…Considering that collectively SNP account for a greater proportion of the familial risk of breast cancer, on a breast cancer population basis, it is those with women with a higher-risk PRS profile who are more likely to contribute to the population of contralateral breast cancers. For an SNP profile based on 313 variants, the contralateral lifetime breast cancer risk ranges from 12 to 20%, depending on the initial risk percentile [107].…”
