Local resident helping to spearhead National BRCA screening program
Within the year that his father died of colon cancer, Andy Cohen’s 38-year-old sister Marjorie discovered she had the breast cancer that would take her life in 2001. Only after the diagnosis did Marjorie learn through newly available genetic testing that she carried a genetic mutation prevalent among Ashkenazi Jews. Had screening for the BRCA gene been available before she got sick, Marjorie would have at least been aware that her chances of developing the deadly cancer were dramatically higher than for the general population.
“If my sister had known about this mutation earlier, I don’t know what she would have done, but she would have had far more choices,” said Cohen, vice president of Samost Jewish Family and Children’s Service (JFCS), an agency of the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey.
Through his ties with the Basser Center for BRCA at the University of Pennsylvania, Cohen and JFCS have been enlisted to spread the word about a new study opening up this fall that will make available free screening to both men and women over the age of 25 with at least one grandparent of Ashkenazi heritage.
