The effect of sample size on polygenic hazard models for prostate cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-10-01)
We determined the effect of sample size on performance of polygenic hazard score (PHS) models in prostate cancer. Age and genotypes were obtained for 40,861 men from the PRACTICAL consortium. The dataset included 201,590 ...
Prostate cancer risk stratification improvement across multiple ancestries with new polygenic hazard score.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2022-02-12)
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer risk stratification using single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) demonstrates considerable promise in men of European, Asian, and African genetic ancestries, but there is still need for increased ...
Polygenic hazard score is associated with prostate cancer in multi-ethnic populations.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-02-23)
Genetic models for cancer have been evaluated using almost exclusively European data, which could exacerbate health disparities. A polygenic hazard score (PHS1) is associated with age at prostate cancer diagnosis and ...
A Genetic Risk Score to Personalize Prostate Cancer Screening, Applied to Population Data.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-09-01)
BACKGROUND: A polygenic hazard score (PHS), the weighted sum of 54 SNP genotypes, was previously validated for association with clinically significant prostate cancer and for improved prostate cancer screening accuracy. ...
Additional SNPs improve risk stratification of a polygenic hazard score for prostate cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-08)
BACKGROUND: Polygenic hazard scores (PHS) can identify individuals with increased risk of prostate cancer. We estimated the benefit of additional SNPs on performance of a previously validated PHS (PHS46). MATERIALS AND ...
Performance of African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score varies according to local ancestry in 8q24.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-06-14)
BACKGROUND: We previously developed an African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score (PHS46+African) that substantially improved prostate cancer risk stratification in men with African ancestry. The model consists of ...
Rare Germline Variants in ATM Predispose to Prostate Cancer: A PRACTICAL Consortium Study.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-01-09)
BACKGROUND: Germline ATM mutations are suggested to contribute to predisposition to prostate cancer (PrCa). Previous studies have had inadequate power to estimate variant effect sizes. OBJECTIVE: To precisely estimate the ...
