On this episode of Health 411, host Dr. Jonathan Karp and student producer Marina JB are joined by Erin Shehan MS, LCGC who works currently as a Clinical Cancer Genetic Counselor at Capital Health.

This new podcast series, initiated by the CGA-IGC Research Committee in 2023, highlights the work of previous CGA-IGC Research Grant recipients. The second episode is hosted by Catie Neumann, MS., LCGC, a Cancer Genetic Counselor at Fox Chase Cancer Center, and features the 2022 grant recipient, Giovana Torrezan, PhD, an associate researcher at A.C. Camargo Cancer Center in Sao Paulo, Brazil.The podcast transcript is available here.

Children's genetic disorders and the non-profit Cool Cars for Kids were discussed by Sarah E. Raible, MS, LCGC, a genetic counselor and the clinical director of the Center for Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), and rare disease core leader in the Roberts Individualized Medical Genetics Center (IMGC) at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia  and the Chief Operating Officer of Cool Cars for Kids, and Lainey Moseley, an Emmy® award winning journalist working for CBS and NBC News,  founder of CHOPS Syndrome Global; an organization raising awareness for her daughter Leta's rare disease CHOPS Syndrome, and Cool Cars for Kids Board Member.  We talked about how ‘rare' is rare?  One in 11 families are affected by some form of genetic disorder, ranging from clef lip, spina bifida, to heart malformations and other identifiable conditions.  Othe genetic mutations can be so rare that – as in the case of Leta, the exact cause can take decades to discover.  Her disorder was identified by a CHOP test when she was 18, her genetic condition named CHOPS Syndrome in honor of the hospital that discovered it.  Today there are some 40 patients found in Italy, Texas and around the globe, now connected by Lainey's organization.    We spoke about the extra roles the parents of these children must take on, caregiver, advocate and researcher.  Lainey is currently in post-production on her documentary RARE, an essay-style documentary in three acts, each delving into the lives of families grappling with rare diseases, the immense challenges they face, and the remarkable scientific progress they drive in the quest for cures. She has also organized their 2nd CHOPS Syndrome symposium in Philadelphia this summer, July 19th and 20th where Unravel Bioscience will be discussing their results for potential FDA repurposed drugs that may be treatment options for their kids.   Fundraising is vital to these families and to the research that helps identify their conditions.  Cool Cars for Kids was founded by former CHOP geneticist Ian Krantz , Sarah and others to provide help and hope to children with rare genetic diagnoses and their families, and to support research that will identify the best possible treatments and cures.  Their annual fundraiser, the Seventh Annual Philadelphia Concours d'Elegance kicks off with a Preview Gala on Saturday, June 22, followed by the main event on Sunday, June 23 at the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum.  Tis year's featured model is the Jaguar, with special displays and a panel discussion about the vehicle.  There will again be the Cool Car Corral, an outdoor space where anyone can display their ‘cool' car, classic, rare or just beloved.  Kids activities, music, food trucks and admission to the Simeon racing car collection are part of the day's fun.   Tickets and corral registration available by visiting philadelphiaconcours.com or coolcarsforkids.org.  Walk-ins and drive-ins are welcome that day.

Germline and somatic testing for  in prostate cancer can improve outcomes and promote early detection and prevention, yet many patients are not aware of testing and the impact it can have on treatment options. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with David Gill, MD, medical oncologist at Intermountain Healthcare's Intermountain Cancer Center and Lindsey Byrne, MS, LCGC, licensed certified genetic counselor at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, who discuss how genetic counselors and increased patient education can help cancer programs close the practice gap and promote guideline-concordant testing among patients diagnosed with prostate cancer.     “I'd really advocate—even in your patients with a negative NGS panel—please still consider getting germline testing in those patients.” –David Gill, MD   “We know that individuals, yes, they're dealing with a diagnosis of cancer, but the first thing people say to me when I sit down with them is, ‘All right, I have this figured out, but what does this mean for my family?' They're really worried about their family, and that's where our focus is, to help take care of that.”—Lindsey Byrne, MS, LCGC   David Gill, MD  Medical Oncologist   Intermountain Healthcare - Intermountain Cancer Center   Salt Lake City, Utah    Lindsey Byrne, MS, LCGC  Licensed Certified Genetic Counselor  The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – The James Columbus, Ohio    This episode was developed in connection with the ACCC education program Germline and Somatic Testing for Mutations to Optimize Outcomes in Metastatic Prostate Cancer and is supported by AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson, and Pfizer.   Resources: Germline and Somatic Testing for Mutations to Optimize Outcomes in Metastatic Prostate Cancer - ACCC Abstract: Homologous recombination repair gene mutation (HRRm) testing patterns and treatment selection from a real-world cohort of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC)  Abstract: Utilization of genetic counseling and testing for patients with prostate cancer following integration of a genetic counselor into a genitourinary cancer clinic 

We are joined by Petr Vozka, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at California State University, Los Angeles where he leads the Complex Chemical Composition Analysis Lab. Prof. Vozka completed his PhD work at Purdue University, where he also spent time doing post-doctoral research. At Purdue, he first encountered LECO's separation sciences equipment and progressed his research to Cal State LA as a faculty member in 2020. His research is centered around non-targeted analyses of a wide range of complex mixtures including fuels, products from plastic waste depolymerization, fingerprints, and oil spills. This year, LCGC recognized Prof. Vozka as a Rising Star in Separation Sciences and LECO launched a new laboratory in partnership with Cal State LA with several different pieces of LECO equipment.

ASCO: You're listening to a podcast from Cancer.Net. This cancer information website is produced by the American Society of Clinical Oncology, known as ASCO, the voice of the world's oncology professionals. The purpose of this podcast is to educate and to inform. This is not a substitute for professional medical care and is not intended for use in the diagnosis or treatment of individual conditions. Guests on this podcast express their own opinions, experience, and conclusions. Guests' statements on this podcast do not express the opinions of ASCO. The mention of any product, service, organization, activity, or therapy should not be construed as an ASCO endorsement. Cancer research discussed in this podcast is ongoing, so data described here may change as research progresses. In this podcast, Dr. Allison Kurian and genetic counselor Kristen Mahoney Shannon talk about what people should know about genetic testing and hereditary breast cancer, including what to expect when meeting with a genetic counselor, ways to reduce your risk of developing cancer, and talking about genetic test results with family.  Dr. Kurian is a Professor of Medicine and of Epidemiology and Population Health at Stanford University School of Medicine, and Director of the Stanford Women's Clinical Cancer Genetics Program. She is also the 2023 Cancer.Net Specialty Editor for Breast Cancer. Ms. Shannon is a senior genetic counselor and Director of the Cancer Center Genetics Program and Director of Genetic Counseling for the Massachusetts General Hospital Department of Medicine. She is also a 2023 Cancer.Net Advisory Panelist. View disclosures for Dr. Kurian and Ms. Shannon at Cancer.Net. Dr. Allison Kurian: I'm Allison Kurian. I am a professor of medicine, oncology, and epidemiology and population health at Stanford University. And I am speaking today with my colleague, Kristen Shannon, who will introduce herself. Kristen Shannon: Hi, it's great to be here. My name is Kristen Shannon. I am a genetic counselor and the director of cancer genetics at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. And I have no financial relevant disclosures to report. Dr. Allison Kurian: Thank you, and I have no relevant financial disclosures either. Very good. So today we will be talking about breast cancer and inherited risk and genetic testing. And let me start by providing a definition of a genetic or hereditary condition. So the way we think about this is something that has a high risk for developing a disease, not a certainty, but a high risk, and runs in families, generally because of a genetic finding that we can identify. And that typically is identified through sequencing, testing of blood or saliva samples, and typically allows us to find a change that we know is clearly associated with disease. A good example for breast cancer are the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2, which some may have heard of, and we will talk about further. So that is just an example, and we will get into more of the details of this as we go on. But I think the point is something that runs in families often is seen with the trait, so for BRCA1 or BRCA2, that would be breast cancer or ovarian cancer, affecting people in every generation. And having what we call for these kinds of genes an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, so inherited from either parent. And taking only 1 copy that is not functioning to give a person higher risk of the condition. So that's sort of a bit of the basics here on genetic or hereditary risk. And just to give a sense of how common hereditary breast cancer is, we think that in general this may account for, I would say, somewhere between 5% to perhaps 10% of cases of breast cancer. And Kristen, please jump in and tell me if you think differently. But that would be my ballpark. And I think probably the majority of those are the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes that I mentioned, although there are others that we are recognizing are playing more of a role than we thought, and we'll discuss those, too. So let me give you a chance to continue and respond, Kristen. Kristen Shannon: Yeah, no, I totally agree. And I was thinking that maybe I could talk a little bit about some of the features that are suggestive that there could be one of these inherited breast cancers in the family, because recognizing these signs of hereditary breast cancer can be super important for early detection and prevention of breast cancer. So first, multiple cases of breast cancer within the family, especially among close relatives like parents, siblings, children, those can be a sign that the cancer is inherited. Another important sign is early age of onset of disease. So breast cancer diagnosed at a young age, typically before the age of 50, might point towards hereditary risk. And it's not always the case, but it's something to be aware of. Also, if there is a history of ovarian cancer in the family, especially if you see it in conjunction with breast cancer cases, that's a significant sign that there could be something inherited in the family. And while it's rarer, male breast cancer can also be associated with hereditary gene mutations. So if there's a history of male breast cancer in the family, it's definitely something to think about in terms of hereditary risk. Multiple cancer types in the family can also be another clue. It's not always just breast and ovarian cancer. If you see a family history of both breast and ovarian cancer or pancreatic cancer or prostate cancer within the same family, that also might be a sign of an inherited cancer syndrome. For individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, it's worth noting that they have a higher prevalence of certain gene mutations in specific genes, specifically BRCA1 and BRCA2, which Dr. Kurian has mentioned before. So a family of history of breast or ovarian cancer in an Ashkenazi Jewish individual should be noted as a higher sign that this cancer could be due to an inherited gene. And lastly, if someone has had breast cancer in both breasts, that's called bilateral breast cancer, and that might indicate hereditary risk. It's important, though, to remember that it's not just about any single sign in isolation. You really need to take a look at the bigger picture and the bigger context of the family. So if you notice any of these signs in your family, it's a good idea to seek guidance from a health care professional, like a genetic counselor or a medical oncologist, and they can help assess the family's risk and recommend genetic testing if needed. Dr. Kurian, did I forget anything or leave anything off? Dr. Allison Kurian: Perfect as always. I will just add a little bit here in terms of the specific gene names that we think about, because sometimes it helps people to have sort of a list in their minds, not that we expect you to remember the whole alphabet soup of these different genes. And let me just say that I think it's always a bit of a hodgepodge, some of these names. I used to wonder how people come up with these names, and often there's a bit of a history there. But I will just go through a few of them. We now have some practice guidelines, and they are basically put together by a group of experts who review all the evidence frequently and come up with recommendations. And so there is a list in these guidelines of basically which genes we think are appropriate to test for breast cancer in families, because there's enough evidence to suggest that. And so in addition to BRCA1 and BRCA2, the ones that I think of as the most important, and I'll want to hear Kristen's thoughts about this, too, but the ones that we see most often are called ATM. Sounds like a cash machine, unfortunately not, but ATM. CHEK2, C-H-E-K-2, and then one called PALB2, which stands for Partner and Localizer of BRCA2, and is a lot like BRCA2 in its risks. There are some other genes that give breast cancer risks that are less common. One of them, CDH1, is a gene that also causes an increased risk of stomach cancer. There are a few others that we always keep in mind. There's one called PTEN that's very rare that causes a syndrome called Cowden syndrome that I certainly haven't seen much of. Kristen may have seen more, but it's not something we see often and goes with a lot of other features in families. There are 2 genes that I think we recognize more in recent years and like to be sure we test, called RAD51C and RAD51D, and those both give increased risks. And then another one that I always think of as important here is TP53, and that is a gene that causes something called Li-Fraumeni syndrome, which has probably the highest cancer risks of which we know. There's another one, STK11, that gives some risk, NF1. We see these as being less frequent contributors. Those are the ones that I kind of keep in mind. And again, there will not be a quiz on the alphabet soup, but just so you're aware of what kinds of names you might hear. Kristen, please jump in if I've forgotten any or anything else you want to say. Kristen Shannon: No, I think that that's important. I think the only thing that I would add is that some people think when they go in for breast cancer genetic testing, they only are getting the BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene. And it's just important for people to realize that that's not really a complete test at this point, as you mentioned, Dr. Kurian. Dr. Allison Kurian: Totally agree, and thank you. Kristen Shannon: Should we move into how to prepare for a genetic counseling appointment? Dr. Allison Kurian: Please, yes. Kristen Shannon: Sure, okay. So preparing for a genetic counseling appointment for breast cancer risk can be helpful. First and foremost, we suggest that you gather your family health history. So reach out to your relatives and compile as much information as possible about your family's health background. Pay special attention to any instances of breast cancer and ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer in the family. And if any family members have had genetic testing, it's really helpful to jot down those test results as well and bring them with you to the appointment. The other thing is to think about your own personal medical history. You know, think about if you've had any past diagnosis, any treatments, surgeries, or medical conditions, especially those related to breast cancer, your genetic counseling appointment will include a discussion of those. The other thing is, you know, if you've had any medical tests related to cancer, it's important to gather those records if they're not already in your hospital's medical record system that you are going to. Another good idea is to just prepare a list of questions that you might want to have answered. So what do you want to know? Are there specific concerns or specific things you're curious about? It's also important to understand what you want to get out of this genetic counseling encounter. Do you want to just clarify your risk of having a gene? Do you want to consider genetic testing? Or do you want to talk about just managing your risk for breast cancer? That's super important to have that in mind before you actually go into your appointment. Lastly, I would consider bringing along a person, a supportive person with you to the appointment. Having someone with you can help provide emotional support because sometimes these visits can get emotionally charged, but it also can help to have someone remember important details that you will discuss with your health care provider. So it's really important to just arm yourself with information, questions, and support so that the appointment is as productive and informative as it can be. Do you have anything else you'd like to add, Dr. Kurian? Dr. Allison Kurian: It's wonderful to have your expert perspective on this. And I guess any thoughts about really what's inside the box? I think sometimes people just sort of wonder what's going to happen when I go in that room. Sometimes we have patients come in and say, “What are you guys going to do to me? Will there be surgery done?” And we reassure them that we are not doing anything that wild. And so maybe just a sense of kind of walking people through what will happen when they go to meet with genetic counselors. Kristen Shannon: Absolutely, thanks for bringing that up. So during the initial meeting, first you'll probably discuss your personal health history, again, any past diagnoses, surgeries, medical conditions. And then typically a genetic counselor or a medical professional will dive right into your family health history. So they'll ask a whole bunch of questions about your close and extended family members to build a really comprehensive picture of your family and the cancer diagnosis in it. They'll want to know if anyone in your family has had cancer, and they'll also want to know what type of cancer that person has had and also the age at which that person was diagnosed. So those are the 3 pieces of information that your health care provider will want to get from you. The genetic counselor will also probably ask you about what you want to get out of this encounter to make sure that you're both on the same page. Again, do you want genetic testing? You know that already. Or do you want to just talk through the process? So the big part of the initial meeting is really education. The genetic counselor will explain what Dr. Kurian described at the very outset of this discussion, what's the genetic basis of hereditary breast cancer, including all the specific genes that Dr. Kurian—the alphabet soup that we talked about. Talk about inheritance patterns and the implications of having a genetic mutation. The genetic counselor will probably also first assess your risk of having a mutation in one of the genes, and then they'll also talk to you often about genetic testing. So if genetic testing is on the table and you and the genetic counselor both agree that it's a good step, they'll walk you through the process of informed consent. And so this ensures that you understand what the testing entails, the potential outcomes, the implications of the test results. And then if you decide to go through with genetic testing, you will provide a blood or a saliva sample. And then it's a waiting game because these test results can take several weeks, usually about 3 to 4 weeks to get the test results back. When the test results come back, you'll typically have a follow-up appointment, either in-person or on the phone with your genetic counselor. And that's when they spend a lot of time interpreting the test results, explain what they mean for you and your health, as well as discussing the appropriate risk management strategies, if necessary. And if a gene mutation is identified, a genetic counselor will guide you on how to manage these risks. But it will depend on the specific mutation that is identified. And then the other thing that the genetic counselor can help with is just the emotional support. Some people have a harder time than others hearing this information. And also to talk about how to tell your family members about this. So in a nutshell, the initial meeting with the genetic counselor is about gathering information, assessing risk, and potentially deciding on whether or not you're going to have genetic testing. And then after that step, it's about interpreting the test results, talking about next steps, and providing emotional support. Dr. Allison Kurian: Thank you, Kristen. That was wonderful and very complete. And as I was listening to you, first of all, I was thinking about my general admiration for genetic counselors, which is huge. They taught me everything I know about this field. But so also kind of highlighting the key things that a meeting with a genetic counselor will do for you, as you so nicely did. And I think it's getting the right test ordered, making sure that the results make sense to you, and going beyond the patient. But I think those are sort of the key aspects that you communicated really well of the things that we want to get done there. Kristen Shannon: Well said, well said. And I couldn't agree more. Dr. Allison Kurian: And what do you think about the family part in terms of how that gets done? Kristen Shannon: Right, so discussing your genetic test results with family members can be hard and challenging, but it's really, really important. In terms of talking to your family members, I think first, determine the way you're going to notify your family members. So are you going to talk to them? Are you going to send them a letter or an email? And how you share the information may be different based on your relationship with that person. So for example, you may sit down over coffee with a close family member to talk about your test results, but you may choose to write a letter to someone that you don't have that much contact with. The next thing that I think is really important is to be prepared. So before you even start to have this conversation, make sure that you have a clear understanding of your genetic test results, the implications to you and to the family member. That's super important before you even start to have the conversation so that you can explain things to people in simple terms without too much medical jargon and make sure you keep it straightforward. It's really helpful to have a copy of your genetic test results and to provide that to your relatives if you're comfortable doing so, because then they can take that information with them to their genetic counseling or genetic testing appointment, which can be incredibly essential in terms of making sure that they get the correct test at the right time and the test results are interpreted correctly. The only other suggestion I have is just to keep in mind that family members are going to react very differently to this information. And some people will be very matter of fact about it. Some people might get a little distracted by this whole thing. So just to be patient with people and keep the conversation open. Allow them to call you if you're willing to do that so that the conversation can develop over time because, you know, really, in the end, the goal is to make sure that everyone in the family is well informed and makes decisions based on their own health and their well-being. Dr. Allison Kurian: Thank you. I couldn't agree more. And we sometimes, as people may have heard, call this “cascade genetic testing.” So a patient is tested. Somebody who's already had cancer maybe is tested. But then we have the opportunity to have this cascade of beneficial genetic testing, where we can get to people before they have cancer and work on prevention and screening, which I'll talk about in a minute. And I will say that, in general, we here in the United States, and certainly other places as well, don't do as well as we would like with cascade testing despite all best efforts of everyone. And so just to emphasize that family notification is super important, genetic counselors are wonderful at helping people to do that. And I think also additional strategies and interventions are underway to try to help make that easier. So if I may, I'll talk just a little bit about kind of what we do when we find something. Is that okay to do? Kristen Shannon: That sounds great. Talk about people, you know, what they can do about their test results. Dr. Allison Kurian: Good. Yeah, so I always think that's important. I'm an oncologist by training. I'm not a geneticist. And again, it's only thanks to the brilliance of genetic counselors like Kristen that I have learned what I have for the last 2 decades working in the field. But so I tend to think in terms of what can we do to treat this person differently if they have cancer to prevent or reduce the risk of a future cancer. And so what I would say is increasingly over the last few years for a person with breast cancer, as well as some additional cancers, it started to matter what these results are in terms of how we treat the person, whether we might give different medications. And that's really exciting because for years in this field, we didn't have that, and now we do. And so the drugs that are increasingly important are called PARP, P-A-R-P, inhibitors. And sometimes, if a person has a BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, we might even offer those drugs to treat a breast cancer or, in other cases, ovarian, prostate, or pancreatic cancer. So I think the testing can matter like never before in terms of what we might do to take care of people's cancer. Sometimes we might also choose a different surgery. So sometimes a woman who has a diagnosis of breast cancer might choose to do a more extensive breast surgery, she might choose a double mastectomy to reduce her risk of getting a second breast cancer. That's never required. She certainly doesn't have to do so extensive a surgery if she doesn't choose, but it is an option that some people might choose. And there might also be other cancer risks to manage in somebody who had breast cancer. BRCA1 and BRCA2, for example, give a high risk of ovarian cancer. And so we might talk with someone about the possibility of removing ovaries to prevent an ovarian cancer, which often is recommended with BRCA1, BRCA2, and other such gene mutations. I will say that I think for somebody who hasn't had cancer yet, or hopefully ever, particularly as we think about breast cancer, we're often thinking about intensive screening. So starting often earlier than a person would if she didn't have high risk and generally adding magnetic resonance imaging, MRI, to screening with mammogram alone. And that really is, I think, the cornerstone for women at high risk is adding that breast MRI screening. For pretty much all of the genes I mentioned, that would be clinically indicated and covered by insurance and important to do. MRI has no radiation, very effective at finding breast cancer early. So I think to summarize, it's really all about understanding risk based on a particular gene mutation, understanding if a different kind of treatment is needed for the cancer that a person has, understanding if any sort of preventive measure is needed for future cancer risk, and making sure that the screening we have for breast and for other cancers is appropriate to the level of risk. Anything to add there, Kristen? Kristen Shannon: No. No, I think that that's great. Dr. Allison Kurian: Absolutely. Yeah, so I think it's wonderful to have this opportunity to speak about the importance of genetic testing, which is I think more important than it ever has been at this time for the care of patients with breast cancer and their families. And so as we move into breast cancer awareness month, it's great to be able to talk about this. Thanks so much. Kristen Shannon: Thank you so much. I agree. And if you have any questions, I would suggest you reach out to your doctor or look up on the ASCO website for a referral to a genetic counselor. ASCO: Thank you, Dr. Kurian and Ms. Shannon.

Welcome to “Analytically Speaking,” the new podcast from LCGC and Spectroscopy. Here in Episode 3, podcast host Jerry Workman talks to talks to Prof. Karl Booksh of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Delaware, Newark, who is an expert in Raman and Raman imaging, LIBS, fluorescence, portable chemical sensors, miniaturization of analytical devices, and data driven science incorporating many chemometrics and data analytics techniques. He discusses a National Science Foundation workshop he is organizing with Prof. Barry Lavine entitled, “Data-Driven Measurements and Instruments for Chemistry.” We spoke to Prof. Karl Booksh about his organizing an NSF workshop to explore research on the development of portable chemical sensors for environmental, biomedical, and industrial process monitoring. Karl's own research is predicated on the belief that it is better to build small chemical sensors capable of reliable measurements in the field or in the process than to collect samples for future laboratory analysis.

In this episode, podcast host Dr. Dwight Stoll talks with Dr. Katelynn Perrault, an Associate Professor of Forensic Science and Chemistry at Chaminade university in Honolulu, about her pathway to separation science, her research on the composition of odors from decomposing remains, and her thoughts about what the separation science community can do to get more women involved in the field. Drs. Stoll and Perrault talk about multi-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC)— which is Perrault's primary research tool—ranging from where the technique stands today, to where progress will likely occur in the near future, and why the technique is so well suited to the analysis of decomposition odors.

I'm Brielle Gregory Collins, a member of the Cancer.Net Content Team, and I'll be your host for today's Cancer.Net podcast. Cancer.Net is the patient information website of ASCO, the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Today, we're going to be talking about genetic conditions linked to kidney cancer and what people with these conditions should know about genetic counseling. Our guests are Dr. Brian Shuch and Lauren Bear. Dr. Brian Shuch is the director of the Kidney Cancer Program at UCLA Health in Los Angeles, California. He is also 1 of the specialty editors for genitourinary cancers at Cancer.Net. Thanks for joining us today, Dr. Shuch. Dr. Brian Shuch: Great. Thanks for having me. Brielle Gregory Collins: Also joining us is Lauren Bear. Lauren Bear is the lead genetic counselor at the Familial Renal Cell Carcinoma and VHL Disease Clinic at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. Thanks for joining us today, Ms. Bear. Lauren Bear: Thank you so much for having me. Brielle Gregory Collins: Before we begin, we should mention that Dr. Shuch and Ms. Bear do not have any relationships to disclose related to this podcast, but you can find their full disclosure statements on Cancer.Net. Now to start, Dr. Shuch, what is the definition of a genetic or inherited condition? Dr. Brian Shuch: Really, this is any condition that would develop that is really strongly influenced by somebody's genes that they would inherit from a family member. But there are lots of kind of complex definitions we can go into, but really anything that develops directly influenced or modulated by their genes that they inherit. Brielle Gregory Collins: Thank you for defining that. And how are genetic conditions diagnosed? Dr. Brian Shuch: So there are different ways, obviously, with the ability to have DNA sequencing done at a fraction of the cost from 10, 20 years ago, we can quickly and effectively sequence somebody's genes. But there are some times where we see patients that they have clinical features of a particular syndrome. And we have given patients a clinical diagnosis of that condition and follow them the same way if they meet some pre-specified criteria. But not every condition actually has a clinical diagnostic criteria. Brielle Gregory Collins: And getting into those specific conditions a little bit, briefly, what are some of the most common genetic conditions that are linked to kidney cancer? Dr. Brian Shuch: So there are about 18 different genes, which when inherited with a damaged copy, you potentially will have some increased risk. Some of them are the well characterized ones, which everyone is familiar with that have been around for decades. Most commonly, people are familiar with Von Hippel-Lindau, which has been described now about 100 years ago, but there are other conditions too. Birt-Hogg-Dubé, which is another common 1. The 1 that I study, hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell, we actually believe is the most common 1 based on newer data. But other ones, such as hereditary papillary renal cell, there's a bunch of ones linked to a hereditary paraganglioma syndrome called STH. But we have plenty of new and emerging conditions, and we're learning new things every year. Brielle Gregory Collins: Thank you for running through all of those. And if someone is diagnosed with kidney cancer, what are some of the signs that they might have 1 of these genetic conditions? Dr. Brian Shuch: So first and foremost, when you're with a patient, you look at their age and if someone has really early age of onset, it should be a red flag. Age alone is controversial whether you should do testing, but that should be a red flag. Whether someone has 1 tumor or more than 1 tumor obviously is important. Both kidneys or 1 kidney. But taking a family pedigree is very important. Most clinicians may just say any kidney cancer, but really understanding at least 2 or 3 generations can really help kind of outline somebody's inherited risk. Finally, the pathology. There are about 20 flavors of kidney cancer, not all of them have the same type of risk. But we actually can learn a lot from a very outstanding pathologist that looks with special immunostains or they look at particular features under the microscope. And a lot of times, a good pathologist can pick this up. And when they do, we have very high likelihood of diagnosing someone with a hereditary form of kidney cancer. Brielle Gregory Collins: Thank you. And as far as being diagnosed and how it affects the way someone is treated, can you describe how being diagnosed with a genetic condition may change the way kidney cancer is treated? Dr. Brian Shuch: So not all types of kidney cancer are the same. It is 1 of the most diverse forms of cancers that we have. Just because they arise from the kidney does not make them the same. There are some which are very indolent and other ones which are extremely aggressive. So if I found a patient with a 1-centimeter kidney tumor and I knew it was sporadic, I may consider watching that patient and doing what's called active surveillance. If it's a patient who actually is a family member of 1 of our patients just diagnosed with HLRCC, that patient was placed on active surveillance and there's no way we would watch that type of tumor because it has much more aggressive biological potential. We would definitely recommend intervention for someone with that type of disease. Biology of the tumor really predicts behavior. Brielle Gregory Collins: Thank you so much. And can you describe how common it is for someone to be diagnosed with inherited kidney cancer? Dr. Brian Shuch: So that's a great question. It's something which is not really perfectly understood at this time. There's been very wide estimates, anywhere from 1% to maybe 8% of kidney cancer might have a very strong inherited component, whether it's due to a single gene that also may be somewhat variable, but I would say it's probably less than 10% of patients actually have a strong inherited predisposition. So we don't refer all patients for testing. And everyone's threshold to send someone for testing varies. But I think obviously, talk to your clinician. I think in this era where testing is fairly cheap and the risks are very low, I think as a default, most clinicians should err on sending patients to a genetic counselor and the genetic counselor can walk things through. Often the history that a clinician takes is somewhat insufficient. And I think the genetic counselors are really great at going through a 3-generation pedigree and then deciding whether testing should be pursued. So not everyone should be referred and not everyone referred should actually undergo testing. But I think the first step usually comes with recognition by the clinician. I'm interested to hear what Lauren thinks about this as well. Lauren Bear: Yeah, I completely agree. It's a good point that we're more than happy to meet with any patient that a physician is concerned could have a hereditary kidney cancer condition. But exactly like Dr. Shuch described, not every family history is very high risk. And so, yeah, I completely agree. Brielle Gregory Collins: And Ms. Bear, I want to get into a little bit about genetic counseling. So if a person is referred to genetic counseling, how can they best prepare for their appointment? Lauren Bear: So during the visit, a genetic counselor will likely ask, as Dr. Shuch described, about their personal and family history to assess risk for 1 of these conditions. And there are some helpful things that people can prepare in advance for this appointment. First are factors related to their personal history. So like Dr. Shuch described, because some of these hereditary cancer syndromes are related to specific types of kidney cancer, it may be helpful to gather information about your own cancer diagnosis and your own personal medical history if it's not already included in the referral or the medical chart, and also gathering information about your family history. So asking some people to research with their family members to see who has had any cancer, what are the ages of diagnosis in their family members' medical history. And that often, again, like Dr. Shuch described, will be to ask about children, siblings, parents, and grandparents to create that 3-generation pedigree or family tree. I think sometimes patients like to discuss the appointment in general with their family member before it happens, because the process of genetic counseling can often involve this option of genetic testing, which could have impact on family members. So beginning that conversation early with relatives can be helpful sometimes. And lastly, some patients like to talk to their insurance carrier about coverage of the appointment itself or even about the genetic testing, although very often talking about the actual genetic testing coverage will be discussed at the appointment with the genetic counselor. So working in advance to get some of these things together can be really helpful to prepare. Brielle Gregory Collins: Got it. And as far as the meeting itself, what happens during and after the initial meeting with the genetic counselor? Lauren Bear: Yeah, so overall, the genetic counseling appointment will involve a genetic evaluation during the initial session and then afterwards, a discussion about any test results and/or follow-up recommendations for the patient and their family members. So during the session, as I stated before, the genetic counselor will ask about this personal and family history and ask about other features that may be suggestive of a known hereditary kidney cancer syndrome. Sometimes that might involve a physical exam with a physician, depending on the indication or the clinic set-up. The genetic counselor will provide basic understanding of genetics and the basis of hereditary kidney cancer to make sure the information that is shared and the recommendations are all put into context for the patient and their family. And then, based on the factors seen in the personal and family history, the genetic counselor will provide a risk assessment, which is a discussion of the possible genetic risk factors that could be explaining the kidney cancer or other cancers in the family. And as, again, Dr. Shuch described, to evaluate very often, this can include a discussion about genetic testing, which can be done on blood or saliva. Both are equally accurate, and it often can be performed via a multigene panel where we look at more than 1 of these conditions at once. But it's also important to realize that this testing is optional. So it is up to the patient if they would like to proceed with any of this testing. And an informed consent is a really important part of this discussion as well, to make sure the patient understands the benefits and limitations of this testing and to confirm if they do or do not want to move forward with the testing. So that's overall what happens during the session and afterwards, if testing is performed, then genetic testing results are communicated to the patient. Depends on the clinic set-up how that's done, if it's through a telephone call, virtual visit, in-person visit. This may be together with the physician, again, depending on the set-up. But in this results disclosure, the genetic counselors and the medical team, they're equipped to convey these results with their patients. So they keep it in context with their own personal and family history and to help the patient adjust to the results, whatever the results are, because learning about genetic test results can sometimes be challenging. So a genetic counselor's role is to provide support and help the patient adjust however they can. Brielle Gregory Collins: So it sounds like it's really a discussion between the patient, their genetic counselor, and the rest of their health care team to see if genetic testing is something that's right for them. Lauren Bear: That's exactly right. That's exactly right. Brielle Gregory Collins: Got it. And how does meeting with the genetic counselor help a person with kidney cancer and their family? Lauren Bear: So when someone first learns there's a possibility of a hereditary reason behind their kidney cancer, many questions or feelings may arise from how this could impact their own health and how it could also impact the health of their family members. And this is all very natural. So the goal, as I stated before, is for the genetic counselor to help guide the patient and their family members to learn more about their risk and figure out who else might be at risk in their family. So, for example, if a positive test result is found or a diagnosis of a hereditary kidney cancer syndrome is made, the genetic counselor's skills are to identify the appropriate follow-up for that patient. So whether it's follow up with a physician to monitor for potentially another kidney cancer, or some other type of cancer, or some other symptom related to these conditions that Dr. Shuch described. And so that's part of when we're thinking about the genetic counselor's role with the patient and their own medical care, it's for that follow-up and helping them adjust. When we think about for their family, a genetic counselor's role would be to help identify who might be at risk. So discussing cancer risk in families is not always the top of conversation. And so the role of the genetic counselor is to help work through ways to facilitate these conversations with family members. Not everybody in the family may be interested at that moment to do genetic testing. So working with a genetic counselor can be helpful in brainstorming ways to share this information with family. Other times, family members are very eager to pursue genetic testing at that moment, so genetic counselors can help set up those consultations or find local resources. So often, long-term relationships can be established with a genetic counselor and the family and the patient. And then also, if a negative result is obtained, there's no gene mutation detected and the patient's not diagnosed with a known hereditary kidney cancer syndrome, the medical team and genetic counselor may also still be able to provide recommendations as far as screening for the family. So it's not to say only if a positive result is found are recommendations made. So those are kind of how I think about how a genetic counselor can impact the patient and their families in a situation like this. Brielle Gregory Collins: Thank you so much for walking through that. So for someone who is diagnosed with 1 of these genetic conditions, what are some tips that you'd share about how they can discuss the genetic condition related to their kidney cancer with their family? Lauren Bear: Every family is very different and the genetic counselors and the physicians, their specialty is to help walk a patient through how family members might react to this kind of information and what kind of materials may be helpful to have on hand when someone wants to share this information with their family members. Many genetic counselors supply family letters detailing the results that the patient is welcome to share with their relatives, certain handouts. We've had family meetings and conference calls, which can be helpful tools. And so really the genetic counselor is really trying to help the patients have the language to facilitate these conversations or to have their own understanding. So if they can absorb this information themselves, they may be more comfortable sharing it with their relatives. And that process might take a little while to adjust to this information, to give yourself some time to ask questions of your own medical team so you can educate yourself and then feel comfortable to share it. Sometimes these discussions happen with children who may be at risk for hereditary cancer, kidney cancer syndrome. So making sure to use age-appropriate language and also having more of like an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time conversation with children can be helpful. But as with anything, as questions come up, I always say, "Don't hesitate to reach out to the genetic counselors or your medical team. We're here to help." Brielle Gregory Collins: That's all really helpful. Thank you so much for your time and for sharing your expertise today, Dr. Shuch and Ms. Bear. It was great having you.
