hi;
I need help with getting free breast cancer and ovarian cancer databases that specify the patients risk factors that help in developing cancer for them. I tried searching the web for free databases but unfortunately, I didn't get any.
any help is appreciated!
Give this a try: The Cancer Genome Anatomy Project. Spend some time there as there is a lot of information available, and for free. Another option is the CDC.
For breast cancer, there is new database under construction called the 'breast cancer database'. It claims to contain a "comprehensive listing of molecular alterations associated with Breast Cancer". If you are looking for a good summary of the genetic factors then explore the OMIM entries for breast cancer and ovarian cancer. For transcriptional expression changes significantly associated with these cancer types explore Oncomine. Another good source of datasets which can be explored and visualized is the UCSC Cancer Genomics Browser. For a database of environmental risk factors see the Breast Cancer and Environmental Risk Factors database at cornell (now archived here). Another nice database carcinogens for breast cancer is provided by the Silent Spring Institute. Finally, I hesitate to suggest it, but wikipedia actually has a fairly decent overview of risk factors for breast cancer. There is generally (and unfortunately) less information available for ovarian cancer.

The question title is very broad. Maybe it should be changed to "help in obtaining databases of risk factors for breast and ovarian cancer.
