SpadaHC is a
database for sharing genetic variants in hereditary cancer genes and their interpretation
from Spanish genetic diagnostics laboratories and expert groups. The database also provides population
frequencies of variants in Spanish
individuals based on their clinical suspicion of cancer predisposition.
Current database version stores
~19808
variant classifications and
~1.6 million variants found
across 5320 individuals.
SpadaHC is the result of a nationwide effort led by CIBERONC (CIBER of Cancer) in collaboration with
ICO-IDIBELL, the Spanish Society of Human Genetics (AEGH), the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM)
and
29 Spanish centers.

of SpadaHC is to offer a useful resource for the research
community and clinical genetic laboratories to improve the knowledge of the genetic basis of hereditary
cancer and, therefore, to improve diagnosis, risk assessment, prevention, and cancer treatment of carriers
and their families.
