Germline variants at SOHLH2 influence multiple myeloma risk.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-04-19)
Multiple myeloma (MM) is caused by the uncontrolled, clonal expansion of plasma cells. While there is epidemiological evidence for inherited susceptibility, the molecular basis remains incompletely understood. We report a ...
Chromosome 1q21 abnormalities refine outcome prediction in patients with multiple myeloma - a meta-analysis of 2,596 trial patients.

Search for multiple myeloma risk factors using Mendelian randomization.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2020-05-26)
The etiology of multiple myeloma (MM) is poorly understood. Summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of multiple phenotypes can be exploited in a Mendelian randomization (MR) phenome-wide association study ...
Optimizing the value of lenalidomide maintenance by extended genetic profiling: an analysis of 556 patients in the Myeloma XI trial.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2023-04-06)
Prediction of individual patient benefit from lenalidomide (Len) maintenance after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) remains challenging. Here, we investigated extended molecular profiling for outcome prediction in ...
Exploiting gene dependency to inform drug development for multiple myeloma.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-07-26)
Despite recent advances in therapy, multiple myeloma essentially remains an incurable malignancy. Targeting tumour-specific essential genes, which constitute a druggable dependency, potentially offers a strategy for ...
Functional dissection of inherited non-coding variation influencing multiple myeloma risk.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-01-10)
Thousands of non-coding variants have been associated with increased risk of human diseases, yet the causal variants and their mechanisms-of-action remain obscure. In an integrative study combining massively parallel ...
Genome-wide association analysis of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma identifies pleiotropic risk loci.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-01-23)
B-cell malignancies (BCM) originate from the same cell of origin, but at different maturation stages and have distinct clinical phenotypes. Although genetic risk variants for individual BCMs have been identified, an agnostic, ...
Multiple myeloma risk variant at 7p15.3 creates an IRF4-binding site and interferes with CDCA7L expression.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-11-24)
Genome-wide association studies have identified several risk loci for multiple myeloma (MM); however, the mechanisms by which they influence MM are unknown. Here by using genetic association data and functional characterization, ...
Constitutional mutation in CDKN2A is associated with long term survivorship in multiple myeloma: a case report.
(BMC, 2017-11-06)
BACKGROUND: Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of plasma cells associated with significantly reduced survival. Long term survivorship from myeloma is very rare and despite advances in its treatment the disease is generally ...
Genetic Predisposition to Multiple Myeloma at 5q15 Is Mediated by an ELL2 Enhancer Polymorphism.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-09-12)
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignancy of plasma cells. Genome-wide association studies have shown that variation at 5q15 influences MM risk. Here, we have sought to decipher the causal variant at 5q15 and the mechanism by ...
