Agree @DrSGraff and patients with germline #BRCA mutations who have residual disease following neoadjuvant systemic therapy should be considered for adjuvant therapy with a PARP inhibitor. #BRCAbrief.

@SoMeCME @KellyKhunt And importantly, how do you capture all the patients that qualify for testing? Any patient who may be eligible for a PARP inhibitor is eligible for testing—which includes ER+ disease. #BRCAbrief.

When we identify gBRCA mutations in patients it can impact surgical decision-making and adjuvant therapy recommendations. Cascade testing can also be important for family members. #bcsm @DrSGraff.

And genomic testing on the tumor is not the same as genetic testing #bcsm @DrSGraff.

Many consider genetic testing for patients with triple negative breast cancer but those patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer and HER2+ breast cancer can also harbor pathogenic mutations that may impact their management #BRCA.
