Table 1. Comparative studies between germline and tumorBRCA testing results.
The table shows the recent relevant studies investigating the concordance in the identification of BRCA germline variants between germline and tissue tests. For each reference study, the number of subjects with paired tumor and germline BRCA tests is reported, together with the cancer and specimen types. According to the study, we reported the methodological pipelines adopted, if available. The table also shows details about the germline findings not reported by tumor test.
