1 On average, women with a BRCA1 mutation have a 55-65% lifetime risk of developing breast cancer. 2  For women with a BRCA2 mutation, the risk is 45%. 3  Breast cancer that is positive for the BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations tends to develop more often in younger women. For women in the U.S., breast cancer death rates are higher than those for any other cancer, besides lung cancer. 2  Besides skin cancer, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among American women. 3  In 2015, it's estimated that just under 30% of newly diagnosed cancers in women will be breast cancers.
