Wiley Jun 8 2026 Black women experience disproportionately elevated risks of developing and dying from early-onset breast cancer. New research published by Wiley online in CANCER , a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, reveals the genes that are most likely to be mutated to contribute to these increased risks. In the study of 686 young Black women diagnosed in Florida and Tennessee with invasive breast cancer at age 50 or younger in 2005–2018, genetic testing showed that 15.3%
