Economic modeling of risk-adapted screen-and-treat strategies in women at high risk for breast or ovarian cancer
2019
Background
The ‘German Consortium for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer’ (GC-HBOC) offers women with a family history of breast and ovarian cancer genetic counseling. The aim of this modeling study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of genetic testing for BRCA 1/2 in women with a high familial risk followed by different preventive interventions (intensified surveillance, risk-reducing bilateral mastectomy, risk-reducing bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, or both mastectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy) compared to no genetic test.
