Abstract Background: Lung cancer is the most prevalent malignancy worldwide. Most patients were sporadic and carried somatic mutations in hotspot genes. At present, accumulating researches had identified several germline mutations that predispose patients to lung cancer. In this report, two siblings were diagnosed as lung squamous cell carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma, respectively. Results: The two siblings shared similar features of a germline insertion of 11 bp (GCCCTGGCATT) in BCAR1 producing a frameshift at codon 314 which is located at the substrate domain. The BCAR1 was previously demonstrated to be associated with lung cancer. The variant detected in this report would impair the regulation and functions of BRCA1 in some extent, thus may promote lung cancer tumorigenesis. Our findings suggest that BCAR1 is a possible susceptibility gene for lung cancer, and its functional analyses in lung cancer need further investigation.Conclusions: In this study, we first reported a novel causative mechanism of Lung cancer: an insertion of 11 bp in BCAR1 gene, which can be helpful in the genetic diagnosis of this disease.

1518 Background: Eligibility for lung cancer screening is based largely on pack-years of smoking, missing many cases. To propose additional groups for screening, this observational study evaluated whether germline mutations associated with cancer risk accelerate onset of lung adenocarcinoma (LA) in ever- and never-smokers. Methods: Patients with LA and family history of cancer were recruited from our oncology clinic and the Clinical Cancer Genomics Community Research Network. With consent, blood samples were screened by large multi-gene panel for 4 categories of germline mutation [lung cancer-associated genes ( TP53, EGFR); BRCA2; other genes in Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway; other DNA repair genes]. Accelerated failure-time models of age at LA diagnosis, adjusted for sex, ethnicity, and packs per day, were constructed for never-smokers and ever-smokers. Statistical significance, at p<0.05 limited the False Discovery Rate to 5% across 8 hypotheses. Results: In never-smokers with LA (n=104), mutated BRCA2, TP53 or EGFR were associated with younger age at diagnosis, while mutation in other FA or DNA repair gene was not. In ever-smokers with LA (n=65), mutated BRCA2 and other FA gene were associated with younger age at diagnosis, while other mutation categories were not (Table). Conclusions: Regardless of smoking history, BRCA2 mutation carriers experience accelerated onset of LA, as do never-smokers carrying TP53 or EGFR mutation and ever-smokers with mutation in FA gene other than BRCA2. With the exception of TP53 carriers (who merit whole body MRI), lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography, starting earlier in adulthood than usual, may be warranted for individuals with germline mutations in these genes.
