PMID: 36529819- new biallelic adult cancer predisposition association. 2 families with 14 affected members however 4 affected members are only heterozygous for the familial variant/s and others not sequenced. Of those sequenced only 4 were chet or hom for CHEK2 variants. Cancers are adult onset with cancers ranging from breast, thyroid, colon. Meningioma, neuroblastoma, prostate and AML. This paper also reviews previous biallelic reports, 6 other families/individuals with homozygous CHEK2 variants and a range of cancers.
