A spectrum of BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline deleterious variants in ovarian cancer in Russia.

Purpose: Pathogenic variants (PVs) in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are essential biomarkers of an increased breast and ovarian cancer risk and tumor sensitivity to poly ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors. In Russia, eight PVs were thought to be the most common, among which BRCA1 c.5266dup is the most frequently identified one.
