But our new findings suggest that this approach may leave many women unaware of important genetic risks.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"none\">In WISDOM, nearly <\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">1 in 38 women<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\"> carried a <\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">pathogenic mutation<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\"> -a change in a gene that increases breast cancer risk.

If many women with no obvious <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">genetic risk factors (like family history of breast cancer) <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">still carry important genetic information, then expanding access to testing may help identify women who can benefit from early, tailored interventions.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Dr. Madlensky\u2019s leadership on this research underscores the value of including genetics into modern breast cancer screening and the importance of questioning the long-standing assumptions about risk.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p aria-level=\"3\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">How This Fits Into the WISDOM Study<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:281,&quot;335559739&quot;:281}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The WISDOM Study is designed to test whether personalized screening\u2014based on each woman\u2019s individual risk\u2014is as safe, more effective, and potentially less burdensome than the one-size-fits-all annual mammogram approach.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">These new results highlight why a personalized approach matters.
