New Cleveland Clinic research finds up to 5% of Americans carry genetic mutations associated with cancer risk
Cleveland ClinicPeer-Reviewed Publication
New Cleveland Clinic research reveals that up to 5% of Americans – approximately 17 million people – carry genetic mutations or “variants” linked to increased cancer susceptibility, regardless of risk factors like personal or family cancer history.
Published in JAMA, the study suggests that these mutations may be more common than previously thought and highlights the potential for expanded genetic screening to identify more individuals at risk and improve early detection.
The research team, led by Joshua Arbesman, M.D., and Ying Ni, Ph.D., analyzed health records and genetic sequencing data from over 400,000 participants in the National Institute of Health’s All of Us Research Program, the country’s largest and most comprehensive genetic and healthcare database.
