Abstract
Various embodiments disclosed relate to a method of preventive care for breast cancer. A method may include analyzing sequenced genetic data originating from the patient to determine whether the patient has a qualifying variant in any of genes BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM, and CHEK2, wherein the qualifying variant can include one or more pathogenic variants, variants of uncertain significance (VUS), or combinations thereof. In an event that the patient does not have a qualifying variant in any of genes BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM, and CHEK2, the method can include calculating a polygenic risk score (PRS) of the patient. If the patient has a PRS lower than a predetermined threshold, the method can include classifying the patient as low risk for breast cancer.
