Tracking Inherited Cancer Risk: How the NIPR Enables Early Detection and Improved Care
-
Understanding rare inherited cancer risks: challenges in clinical management due to limited or inconsistent evidence.
-
Closing the gap between gene discovery and patient care: collaborative guideline development with national and international experts.
-
The National Inherited Cancer Predisposition Register (NIPR): its purpose, scope, and how it tracks patients at risk.
-
Impact on preventative screening and clinical care: linking the register to national datasets to study incidence, survival, and outcomes of early detection or risk-reducing interventions.
-
Future directions: expanding research, improving personalised patient management, and supporting trials for high-risk individuals.
