Purpose: LFSPRO is an R library that implements risk prediction models for Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), a genetic disorder characterized by deleterious germline mutations in the gene. To facilitate the use of these models in clinics, we developed LFSPROShiny, an interactive R/Shiny interface of LFSPRO that allows genetic counselors (GCs) to perform risk predictions without any programming components and further visualize the risk profiles of their patients to aid the decision-making process.
Methods: LFSPROShiny implements two models that have been validated on multiple LFS patient cohorts: a competing risk model that predicts cancer-specific risks for the first primary and a recurrent-event model that predicts the risk of a second primary tumor.
