Genomic insights are most valuable when they fit the way urology practices actually work. At the 2026 LUGPA Annual Meeting in Chicago, our team will be at booth 203 to talk about how GoPath’s genomic programs support prostate cancer care, from risk assessment to treatment planning. Bring your questions about testing, interpreting results, and bringing them into everyday clinical workflows.

No family history does not mean no inherited risk. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation reports that 30 to 50% of breast cancer mutations occur in women who have not traditionally been considered high risk. Its latest article covers research on BRCA1 and BRCA2, genes like CHEK2 and PALB2, and how race and ethnicity affect inherited risk. This work helps clinicians identify who may benefit from earlier detection and personalized screening.

Not every breast cancer story begins with a lump. For some families, it starts with a pattern: a mother, an aunt, or a sister diagnosed at a young age. During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, GoPath is highlighting the role hereditary risk can play and why knowing it early matters. BRCANow® is our germline testing panel for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, with options built to fit different patient needs, including BRCA1/2 analysis with deletion/duplication testing and expanded risk panels. Results can help clinicians guide screening and prevention decisions and give families clearer information about next steps. Talk with your healthcare provider about whether genetic testing is right for you, or contact our team to learn how BRCANow® can support your practice.

Our final Know Your Risk video looks at MMS22L and BIK, two emerging genes that are still being studied. Dr. Brian Helfand explains why these findings are best considered alongside other important factors, including PSA, biopsy results, grade group, MRI findings, and family history. Together, this information can help your doctor develop a more complete picture of your individual risk and guide the conversation around next steps.

That’s a wrap on this month’s Know Your Risk series. Thank you for following along as Dr. Helfand helped make prostate cancer genetics a little easier to understand.

09/29/2026

This installment of Know Your Risk covers MMS22L and BIK, two emerging genes in prostate cancer research where the evidence is still developing. Dr. Brian Helfand emphasizes why these results call for cautious interpretation, particularly for MMS22L's connection to DNA repair biology, and why neither should be treated as a stand-alone, management-changing finding. He also stresses that these results should always be read in context alongside PSA, grade group, MRI findings, and family history. As genetics research advances, careful interpretation remains key to using new findings responsibly.

This installment of Know Your Risk covers HSD3B1, a gene tied to how the body responds to hormone therapy rather than inherited cancer risk. Dr. Brian Helfand explains why this result matters most if hormone therapy becomes part of your treatment plan, as it may offer insight into how your body responds over time. He also emphasizes that hormone therapy affects more than the cancer itself, touching on bone, heart, and metabolic health, so long-term planning matters too. Understanding this result now can help your care team plan several steps ahead.

09/25/2026

The next Know Your Risk video shifts focus to HSD3B1, a gene tied not to hereditary risk but to hormone sensitivity and androgen deprivation therapy response. Dr. Brian Helfand explains why this result is best understood as a hormone-response marker rather than a stand-alone treatment driver, and how it can inform long-term planning for patients likely to need extended hormone therapy. He also touches on why survivorship matters here, since prolonged hormone therapy raises considerations around bone, cardiovascular, and metabolic health.

Leukemia & Lymphoma Awareness Month is an opportunity to raise awareness of blood cancers and the importance of accurate diagnosis. As testing and treatment continue to advance, earlier and more precise answers can help guide more informed care.
