A polygenic-score-based approach for identification of gene-drug interactions stratifying breast cancer risk

An individual's genetics can dramatically influence breast cancer (BC) risk. Although clinical measures for prevention do exist, non-invasive personalized measures for reducing BC risk are limited. Commonly used medications are a promising set of modifiable factors, but no previous study has explored whether a range of widely taken approved drugs modulate BC genetics. In this study, we describe a quantitative framework for exploring the...
