BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome
MONDO:0013692BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome (TPDS) is an inherited cancer-predisposing syndrome, associated with germline mutations in BAP1 tumor suppressor gene. The most commonly observed cancer types include uveal melanoma, malignant mesothelioma, renal cell carcinoma, lung, ovarian, pancreatic, breast cancer and meningioma, with variable age of onset. Common cutaneous manifestations include malignant melanoma, basal cell carcinoma and benign melanocytic BAP1-mutated atypical intradermal tumors (MBAIT) presenting as multiple skin-coloured to reddish-brown dome-shaped to pedunculated, well-circumscribed papules with an average size of 5 mm, histologically predominantly composed of epithelioid melanocytes with abundant amphophilic cytoplasm, prominent nucleoli and large, vesicular nuclei that vary substantially in size and shape.
Also known as: BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome, tumor susceptibility linked to germline BAP1 mutations, tumour susceptibility linked to germline BAP1 mutations, BAP1 tumor predisposition syndrome, BAP1 tumour predisposition syndrome, TPDS, tumor predisposition syndrome, tumour predisposition syndrome

New online tool aims to help families uncover hidden cancer risks
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether a new online program can help families understand their inherited cancer risk and encourage relatives to get low-cost genetic testing. Researchers will enroll 400 adults who carry a cancer-related gene change and their family members. The goal is to see i…

50,000 samples to unlock secrets of hereditary tumors
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study will collect blood and tumor tissue from up to 50,000 adults with hereditary or genetic-linked cancers. Researchers will use these samples to create lab-grown tumor models, like mini-tumors, to study how these cancers work and test new treatments. The goal is to better…
