Brief Summary

The aim of the COVAR project is to achieve reliable classification of as many variants of interest as possible from the French OncoGenetics Database (FrOG, https://frog-db.fr/) in order to use them for the genetic counseling. The results obtained through this study will have a major impact on clinical management of the patients and their families conducting in some cases to propose a prophylactic surgery.
