Summary
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome (MONDO:0003582) is a cancer with 75 cohort genes (27 CIViC-evidence somatic drivers; 24,312 ClinVar predisposition records) and 51 clinical trials. The dominant Reactome pathway is Homologous DNA Pairing and Strand Exchange (16 cohort genes). Top therapeutic interventions include letrozole, veliparib, and arzoxifene hydrochloride.

No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).
Drug repurposing candidates
30 approved/phased drugs hit cohort targets but don’t yet appear in disease-level clinical trials. Target-inhibition rationale is strongest for cancer driver genes; a bioactivity hit is a screening signal, not a treatment claim.
