Common genetic variants modify cancer risks for female carriers of BRCA1/2 mutations.We investigated-for the first time to our knowledge-associations of common genetic variants with breast and prostate cancer risks for male carriers of BRCA1/2 mutations and implications for cancer risk prediction. Materials and Methods Wegenotyped 1,802male carriers ofBRCA1/2mutations fromthe Consortiumof Investigators ofModifiers of BRCA1/2 by using the custom Illumina OncoArray.We investigated the combined effects of established breast and prostate cancer susceptibility variants on cancer risks formale carriers of BRCA1/2 mutations by constructing weighted polygenic risk scores (PRSs) using published effect estimates as weights. Results In male carriers of BRCA1/2 mutations, PRS that was based on 88 female breast cancer susceptibility variantswas associatedwith breast cancer risk (odds ratio per standard deviation of PRS, 1.36;95%CI, 1.19 to 1.56; P = 8.6 3 1026).
