Risk Management for People with Inherited CDK4 Mutations
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) provides risk management guidelines for people with CDK4 mutations. We recommend that you speak with a genetics expert who can look at your personal and family history of cancer and can help you determine the best risk management plan.
