The Breast and Ovarian Analysis of Disease Incidence and Carrier Estimation Algorithm (BOADICEA) is a computer program that is used to calculate the risks of breast and ovarian cancer in women based on their family history. It is also used to calculate the probability that they are carriers of cancer-associated mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene.

Please note – BOADICEA is now implemented as part of the CanRisk Tool. You can setup your own CanRisk Tool user account here.

For general BOADICEA inquiries please contact Alex Cunningham (apc40@medschl.cam.ac.uk) or Antonis Antoniou (aca20@medschl.cam.ac.uk).

We are now licensing BOADICEA V5 for commercial use. BOADICEA V5 is the first comprehensive breast cancer risk prediction model using information on rare genetic variants in high- and moderate-risk cancer susceptibility genes, Polygenic Risk Scores, family history and other lifestyle or hormonal risk factors for breast cancer.

For commercial BOADICEA inquiries please contact Ione Meyer (Ione.Meyer@enterprise.cam.ac.uk) or Laura Donnelly (Laura.Donnelly@enterprise.cam.ac.uk).
