BC Cancer and UBC Researchers Identify New Hereditary Prostate Cancer Gene

BC Cancer and UBC Researchers Identify New Hereditary Prostate Cancer Gene

Researchers at BC Cancer and the University of British Columbia have discovered a new form of hereditary prostate cancer linked to mutations in the CDK12 gene. This rare genetic mutation can lead to aggressive prostate cancer at a young age. The study analyzed genetic data from over 4,500 individuals with aggressive prostate cancer, identifying five men with inherited CDK12 mutations who developed metastatic cancer between ages 44 and 62. The discovery suggests that CDK12 mutations, previously thought to occur only spontaneously, can be inherited. This finding could lead to enhanced genetic testing and early detection programs for at-risk families.
