Abstract:

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between BRCA1/2 gene mutation and clinicalcharacteristics in patients with ovarian cancer, and the effect of BRCA1/2 gene mutation on prognosis. Methods: From November 2017 to June 2022,51 patients with ovarian cancer who received BRCA1/2 gene detection in theFirst Hospital of Lanzhou University were selected as the research subjects.According to the test results, they weredivided into the BRCA1/2 mutation group(30 cases) and the BRCA1/2 non-mutation group(21 cases). Theclinical baseline data,clinicopathological features and prognosis of the two groups were compared. The relevantfactors related to the prognosis were analyzed.Results: There were no significant differences in the age of onset,BMI, family history of malignant tumor, CA 125 and HE4 before treatment between the two groups (P>0.05).Therewere significant differences in the tumor stage and lymph node metastasis between the BRCA1/2 mutation groupand the BRCA1/2 non-mutation group (P<0.05).Multivariate Cox analysis showed that the BRCA1/2 genemutation was not an independent prognostic factor for survival and PFS in ovarian cancer (HR=0.752,95%Cl.0.394-1.435,P=0.329).Conclusions: The BRCA1/2 gene mutation is an important factor in determining theclinical treatment of ovarian cancer,and it is significantly related to tumor stage and lymph node metastasis.However,the BRCA1/2 gene mutation could not be an independent risk factor for ovarian cancer.
