DNA repair gene polymorphisms and mutations are known to influence cancer risk. We studied whether polymorphisms in DNA double strand break (DSB) repair genes are associated with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) risk. Up to 1,600 cases and 4,241 controls from 4 separate genetic association studies fr
## Abstract Mutations of BRCA1 gene are associated with more than half the cases of hereditary breast cancer. Breast cancer formation in BRCA1 mutation carriers is generally accompanied by loss of the wild‐type allele, suggesting that BRCA1 protein may function as a tumor suppressor. The human BRCA
