Prognostic factors in Polish patients with BRCA1 -dependent ovarian cancer
Conclusion
Prognostic factors for favourable treatment outcomes in Polish patients with BRCA1-OC do not appear to differ from those in patients with sporadic OC. The incidence of the endometrial subtype of OC was relatively high (34.9 %) among women in the study. This was unexpected and has not been reported previously. This subtype of OC was an independent prognostic factor for favourable treatment outcomes. (Source: Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice)

BRCA1 founder mutations do not contribute to increased risk of gastric cancer in the Polish population
Conclusion
The current study indicates that founder BRCA1 mutations reported in Polish breast/ovarian cancer patients do not contribute to increased GC risk. The nine tested recurrent BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations were not detected in GC patients which may suggests that they are rare in GC patients in the Polish population. Further analyses, including sequencing of entire sequences of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, are necessary to ultimately determine the role of these two genes in GC in Poland.

Association of polymorphisms with a family history of cancer and the presence of germline mutations in the BRCA1/BRCA2 genes
Conclusion
The results presented here provide interesting data on the modifying effect of polymorphisms on a family history of cancer; this may be a variable to consider in the analysis of tumor diversity, and of the family history observed in families with hereditary breast cancer (even in those harboring the same type of genetic alteration).

Clinical features and outcomes of germline mutation BRCA1 -linked versus sporadic ovarian cancer patients
Conclusion
In conclusion, we found better overall survival for ovarian cancer patients with BRCA1 germline mutations in comparison with patients without these mutations (sporadic) ovarian cancer. Thus, BRCA1 germline mutations appear to be an independent prognostic factor for ovarian cancer. (Source: Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice)
