Research for Associated Genes for Gastric Cancer in Family Member With Affected First-Degree Relatives

April 16, 2023 updated by: Nayoung Kim, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital

Research for Associated Genes for Developing Gastric Cancer in Family Member With First-Degree Relatives of Gastric Cancer

Familial gastric cancer accounts for 10% of all cases, but predisposing genetic variations is unknown except for CDH1 mutation.

Because Germline mutation is believed to be a key aspect of cancer predisposition, we plan to recruit persons with 2 or more affected family members in three-generation pedigree. The investigators will perform a whole-exome sequencing using DNA from blood samples of families including gastric cancer patients and non-gastric cancer patients

Study Overview

Detailed Description

1> Patient selection

Enroll criteria:

1) Gastric cancer patients and their first-degree relatives and 2) family with two or more gastric cancer patients within three-generation pedigree.

A three-generation pedigree will be used for diagnostic consideration or risk assessment of rare variation.

Personal history will be acquired by questionnaire which asks smoking, alcohol intake, dietary preference, socioeconomic information and history of previous eradication of HP. For any family member with gastric cancer, age at diagnosis, histology type, methods of treatment or pathological reports will be evaluated.

2> Whole exome sequencing, variant annotation, filtering and prioritization After whole exome sequencing, functional annotation of genetic variants will be conducted using ANNOVAR.

3> Linkage analyses To perform variant and gene-based linkage analysis in pedigrees, data will be analyzed using pedigree-VAAST.

4> Validation using a genechip

Study Population

The investigator will recruit or invite the participants among persons who visit the clinic with a family history of gastric cancer.

The investigator plans to recruit gastric cancer patients and non-patients in family with 2 or more affected members.

Non-gastric cancer patients was restricted to persons over 50 years of age.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Gastric cancer
Pathologically proven diseases after upper gastroendoscopy and biopsy. Previous pathological reports and endoscopic image can be used.
Presence/absence of gastric cancer will be evaluated by upper gastroendoscopy or results of pathological test
non-gastric cnacer
Rull out gastric cancer by upper gastroendoscopy. The results 3 moths before enrollment is available.
