Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Family Registry
For individuals identified with the KRAS-variant. Patients will be prospectively followed to determine the impact of lifestyle on disease risk.
KRAS-variant and microRNA binding site mutation testing
Participant in these studies will be tested for the KRAS-variant
Double primary breast cancer
Women with multiple primary breast cancer will be tested for the KRAS-variant and compared between those with this mutation and those without.
KRAS-variant and microRNA binding site mutation testing
Participant in these studies will be tested for the KRAS-variant
Autoimmunity
We have shown that the KRAS-variant and other members of this genetic class of mutations associate with altered immunity, leading to immunosuppression as well as autoimmunity.
KRAS-variant and microRNA binding site mutation testing
Participant in these studies will be tested for the KRAS-variant
Cancer patients receiving certain treatments
We have found that microRNA binding site mutations are predictive biomarkers of outcomes from cancer therapy, including response and toxicity. We will enroll patients to further study and validate these findings.
