Abstract 6198: TP53 mutational clusters stratify the Li-Fraumeni syndrome spectrum

Abstract Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a highly penetrant cancer predisposition disorder caused by germline variants in the TP53 tumor suppressor gene. LFS has recently been redefined as a ‘spectrum’ disorder to reflect the highly variable cancer types with largely unpredictable ages-of-onset and disease severity. The broad functional gradient associated with different TP53 variants is thought to contribute to LFS heterogeneity, although it is still poorly understood and there is an unmet clinical need for risk stratification strategies to improve variant interpretation and patient care. Here, we performed an unsupervised cluster analysis leveraging p53 mutagenesis datasets (Kato et al. , 2003 Part 1 (Regular Abstracts) ; 2024 Apr 5-10; San Diego, CA.
