Table 2.

Comparison of risk group categorization between the life-time breast cancer risk calculation including family history and mutation status (FH), the calculation also including PRS311 (FH + PRS), and the calculation including questionnaire-based risk factors and PRS (FH + QRF + PRS).

From FH + PRS to other, n(%) 11 (20.0) 8 (15.1)
Screening category change compared to FH
Upscaled, n(%) 3 (15.0) 11 (52.4) 4 (21.1) 14 (58.3)
Downscaled, n(%) 17 (85.0) 10 (47.6) 15 (78.9) 10 (41.7)
Screening category change compared to FH + PRS
Upscaled, n(%) 5 (45.5) 5 (62.5)
Downscaled, n(%) 6 (55.5) 3 (27.5)

Differences in risk groups are shown for heterozygotes and non-carriers separately. The numbers of shifts might be different than expected from the presented data, as individual changes in risk category are not visible within this Table. for three heterozygotes and six non-carriers, relevant QRFs were not available, and therefore only data on FH + PRS were used and by defintion they did not change category.
