Genetic breakthrough brings cure for Alzheimer’s a step closer
(Science Photo Library)Inflammation seen in the brains of Alzheimer's sufferers was thought to be a secondary effect of the disease. The new findings suggest that it might actually be a primary causeDavid Rose, Health Correspondent
Genetic breakthrough hails new
cancer research era
By Richard Alleyne, Science Correspondent
The genetic code of two of the most deadly cancers has been
cracked by British scientists in a world first that opens up a
whole new era in the treatment for the disease.

What does Genetics mean to you?
Tricky Dry Highly Specialised – sometimes the
patients know more than you do Interesting challenge Hard to explain to patients
![Page 5: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What does ‘genetics’ mean to you?

What would you like to know?
![Page 7: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Family History – why do we do it?
Think of the patient you most recently asked for a family history – what was the situation / presenting problem?
What did you do with that information?
![Page 8: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Family History – why do we do it?
To aid with accurate risk assessment - likelihood of developing a certain disease
To identify those who have an underlying genetic condition who would benefit from further information and services
To identify other members of the family who may be at risk
This leads to appropriate management strategies
![Page 9: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Objectives for today’s session
To outline the scope of genetics in primary care To identify some useful guidelines and resources for
clinicians To identify useful resources for patients To outline the structure of services providing care to
patients with genetic issues To touch on common forms of inheritance To discuss some common presentations of patients with
genetic issues To encourage ‘thinking Genetics’ where you might not
have done before!

Scope of Genetics in Primary Care
10% of consultations have genetic aspect Mostly multifactorial disease with genetic
component e.g. CHD, asthma, Alzheimers, diabetes
Single gene disorders e.g. CF, Huntingdon’s, (Pharmacogenetics) Reproductive issues e.g. Hbopathies
![Page 11: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Multifactorial Inheritance
Increased risk due Genetic to family history Condition
Environmental factors Genetic Factors‘nurture’ ‘nature’
![Page 12: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Role of Primary Health Care Team (RCGP) General Practitioners have a key role in
identifying patients and families who would benefit from being referred to appropriate specialist genetic services
Management and support of families with / at risk of genetic conditions
Consideration of FH in multi-factorial disease e.g. cancer, DM, CHD

A ‘typical’ morning surgery…
Mrs. B, aged 52, attends for a blood pressure check as she has had 2 raised readings over the last few months.
Today it is 152 / 96. She says she’s not surprised it is raised as she has just heard that her sister has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer – this has come as a shock as she has been supporting her other sister through a course of chemotherapy for breast cancer.
What else would you ask?
![Page 15: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cancer is common
1 in 3-4Of the general population will develop cancer
during their lifetime
Breast cancer: 1 in 9 women Ovarian cancer: 1 in 35 women Bowel cancer: 1 in 18 men, 1 in 20 women Incidence increases with age (risk factor)
![Page 16: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Genetic Counselling (Peter Rose)
Information gathering: Discuss family history Identify patient concerns / wishes
Information provision: Explain risks and genetic contribution Discuss screening if appropriate Preventative measures Discuss tests if appropriate
Decision making: Guide patient through difficult choices Institute management which patient chooses
![Page 26: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Genetic Counselling
IS NON-DIRECTIVE Doesn’t always result in a test!
‘Genetic Counselling is the process by which patients or relatives at risk of a disorder which may be hereditary are advised of the consequences of the disorder, the probability of developing or transmitting it and the ways in which this may be prevented or avoided’
![Page 27: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Familial / hereditary cancer
Family History is used to assess risk Population risk:
should be reassured and managed in Primary Care Moderate / high risk (i.e. above population risk):
Additional screening (mammogram +/- MRI) Risk-reducing surgery i.e. prophylactic mastectomy /
oophorectomy High risk:
may be offered testing for a particular syndrome
![Page 28: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
‘Typical’ patient no. 1 – Mrs. B
Could / Should be offered referral to Genetics High risk for breast and ovarian cancer Offered screening:
Yearly Mammogram +/- MRI from 35-50 18 monthly mammogram from 50 onwards Ovarian screening via research study
Offered risk-reducing measures: Prophylactic Bilateral Mastectomy Prophylactic Bilateral Oophorectomy
Offered testing: Given information and testing discussed
![Page 29: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
A ‘typical’ morning surgery…
Mrs T. attends, and after telling you about her athlete’s foot she bursts into tears and tells you her mother has just been diagnosed with cancer – ‘everyone in the family has it and I’m bound to get it’
What else do you ask? She tells you:
Mother had breast cancer aged 64 Sister had cervical cancer in her 30’s Her grandfather had prostate cancer and died in his 80’s Her uncle developed lung cancer in his 60’s – he had been a
heavy smoker all his life
![Page 30: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Role of Primary Care (NICE 2006)
Women at or near population risk should be cared for in Primary Care
They should receive standard information (see box in PACE Guidelines)
‘Be Breast Aware’ (NHS Breast Screening Programme and Cancer Research UK)
‘Are you worried about Breast Cancer?’ (Cancer Backup)
![Page 31: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Communication…
How would you try to reassure her that she wasn’t at any greater risk than the rest of
the population?

The story so far…
Our job is to identify the 1 in 20 patients with cancer (and their relatives) with a genetic basis
PACE guidelines can help Only some patients will be offered a
genetic test – management is mainly information giving, extra screening, risk-reducing surgery.
![Page 37: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

When to think about it:
A 34-year-old lady with a history of depression comes to see you. Her sister died very suddenly 2 weeks ago at the age of 42.
She also happens to be your patient, and when you look in her notes, the cause of death from PM is Myocardial Infarction
![Page 39: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Familial Hypercholesterolaemia
1 in 500 people have Familial Hypercholesterolaemia
50% CVD risk by the age of 50 in men 30% CVD risk by the age of 60 in women 110,000 cases in the U.K. Only around 10,000 identified so far
![Page 40: Genetics in Primary Care Dr. Jude Hayward GPwSI in Genetics, Bradford.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551612a5550346cf6f8b6311/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

When to think about it: Simon Broome Diagnostic Criteria TC >7.5, LDL >4.9 AND Definite FH:
Tendon xanthomas in 1st or 2nd degree relative
Possible FH: Family history of IHD <60 y.o.a. in 1st degree relative,

How to manage it:
Manage other risk factors Aggressively control cholesterol to lower LDL
<50% level at initial measurement If not controlled with 2 agents, refer:
Donald Whitelaw (Diabetes and Endocrinology Consultant, BRI)
Julian Barth / Mike Mansfield (Lipid clinic, LGI) Consider referral to cardiologist for assessment
of possible IHD

What about the Genetics?
Autosomal Dominantly Inherited Mutation in LDL receptor gene Individuals should be referred for
genotyping.

What about the rest of the family?
‘Cascade Screening’ of all 1st and 2nd degree relatives – several pilot projects underway to figure out how to do this.
Controversies:How do you assess for possible IHD?Children should be started on a statin as early
as possible, around the age of 10

A ‘typical’ morning surgery…
A 36-year-old man comes in ‘tired all the time’. He has several non-specific symptoms including palpitations and general aches, and you are aware he is having a stressful time at work.
He is concerned, and asks you to do some blood tests.

Hereditary haemochromatosis
High index of suspicion in younger men who present TATT. Autosomal recessive disorders, carrier rate 1/8 – 1/10, prevalence 1/200
– 1/400.
Signs, Symptoms and Complications: Non-specific – tatt, joint pain, weight loss, (impotence) Liver disease Diabetes Hypogonadotrophic hypognadism Arthritis Cardiac Disease (heart failure)
Venesection improves life expectancy - normal if before development of diabetes and liver cirrhosis

Hereditary haemochromatosis
His ferritin came back as 458. What would you do next?
Diagnosis: Ferritin: will be raised once iron overload occurring.
Can also be raised in acute phase response If ferritin high, or high index of suspicion consider
checking Fasting Transferrin (earliest marker of HH) If transferrin > 45%, refer to haematologist Generally, females >50%, males >55%

Hereditary Haemochromatosis
Genetics:2 mutations responsible for >95% in U.K.Many people who inherit the mutations will not
develop clinical disease.Genetics dept will offer gene testing /
genotyping to 1st degree relatives only.

This is the slide to remember!
Our role is identify patients at risk or who may have a genetic condition and would benefit from input from Genetic Services
We do this by taking and using a family history – core examples: A common multifactorial disease (e.g. IHD or cancer) occurring
young, strong family history, atypical presentation Early pregnancy, or even pre-conceptually
There is lots of information out there regarding individual conditions
