Cumulative risk denotes an estimate of the pure probability of developing the event over the age ranges specified. CI = confidence interval; OCS = ovarian cancer screening; OFP = ovarian/fallopian tube/peritoneal; RRSO = risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy.

Participants with bilateral breast cancer, unilateral breast cancer plus contralateral risk-reducing mastectomy, or bilateral risk-reducing mastectomy prior to enrollment were excluded from the breast cancer risk estimates. Participants who underwent risk-reducing mastectomy during prospective follow-up were censored at the time of risk-reducing surgery.

OFP cancer risk was not estimated for participants who had RRSO (indicated with —).
