AB  - Objectives To identify referral patterns and uptake of risk reducing surgery (RRS) in patients with non-BRCA genes associated with an increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods A chart review of patients with mutations in MLH1, MSH2, EPCAM, MSH6, PMS2, RAD51C/D, BRIP1 was conducted from 2015–2018. Patients with BRCA1/2 and variants of uncertain significance were excluded; MSH6 and PMS2 were included (though recent change to insufficient evidence). Primary outcomes of interest were referral to a gynecologic oncologist and the uptake of RRS.Results Of 78 patients, 18 had undergone surgical management for treatment of cancer prior to genetic testing and were excluded. The majority of the patients (41 of 60, 68%) with non-BRCA actionable mutations were associated with Lynch Syndrome (LS). Of these patients, 23 of 60 (56%) were seen by gynecologic oncologists. Twenty of 41 (49%) underwent RRS. Excluding the MSH6 and PMS2 patients, 9 of 21 (43%) of patients with LS underwent RRS.Among patients with the non-BRCA and non-LS associated genes (RAD51C, RAD51D, BRIP1) the most common reason for testing was family history of cancer (10 of 19). Fifteen of 19 were referred to a gynecologic oncologist; all patients with BRIP1 mutation were referred, while 70% of those with RAD51/D were referred. Among this subset of patients, 9/19 (47%) patients underwent RRS; the remaining patients were screened with surveillance ultrasounds and/or CA-125.Conclusions Two-thirds of patients with non-BRCA genes associated with increased risk of ovarian cancer were referred to gynecologic oncologists, with a 48% of uptake or RRS.
