Testing BRCA 1/2 Mutation Using Next Generation Sequencing

Completed
Conditions
Breast Neoplasms
Breast Cancer
Registration Number
NCT02151747
Lead Sponsor
Severance Hospital
Brief Summary

Testing BRCA 1/2 mutation is important for patients with breast cancer, and Sanger sequencing is a standard method to identify BRCA 1/2 mutation. Next generation sequencing (NGS) is a high-throughput parallel sequencing that can provide genetic information with high accuracy. NGS is a faster and cost-effective method to detect gene mutations compared to Sanger sequencing. In this study, we evaluated the clinical role of NGS testing for BRCA 1/2 compared to Sanger sequencing.
