Family history is important
Cancer runs in families

Most people have cancer in the family % of US populaPon 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Smokes Close family Extended family (parent, sibling) (+ grandparents, aunts/uncles) Smokes Breast cancer Colon cancer Prostate cancer Lung cancer
It’s in the family, but where’s the gene?
VUS = fly in gene6c tes6ng ointment
VUSs are growing
Use family history to make sense of VUSs
