Familial Breast Cancer and an Audit of a New Development in Medical Practice in 12 European Countries

Objective

To demonstrate the benefit of the new clinical approaches for identifying women at high risk of suffering from breast and related cancers using epidemiological and molecular technologies and furthermore, from the current clinics demonstrate the outcomes of these approaches to inform purchasers and providers of medical care in Europe.

To establish and specify the clinical benefits of the application of the new developments in epidemiological and molecular research in familial breast cancer clinics in Europe, taking advantage of the participants expertise in genetics, molecular biology, pathology and clinical aspects of cancer. The resources available will be used to prepare guidelines for the clinical services required, the optimal molecular genetic techniques to identify mutations, the appropriate use of pathological services in the high risk patient, the management of those at high risk and ethical guideline for the provision of these new clinical approaches. Dissemination of information on the benefits of these clinical services will be via contact with the family physicians as a group, with health policy makers and with the consumer. A video to allow further outreach will also be prepared.
