Association analyses identify 31 new risk loci for colorectal cancer susceptibility.
Law, PJ; Timofeeva, M; Fernandez-Rozadilla, C; Broderick, P; Studd, J; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-05-14)Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and has a strong heritable basis. We report a genome-wide association analysis of 34,627 CRC cases and 71,379 controls of European ancestry that ... -
Cross-Cancer Genome-Wide Analysis of Lung, Ovary, Breast, Prostate, and Colorectal Cancer Reveals Novel Pleiotropic Associations.
Fehringer, G; Kraft, P; Pharoah, PD; Eeles, RA; Chatterjee, N; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-09-01)Identifying genetic variants with pleiotropic associations can uncover common pathways influencing multiple cancers. We took a two-stage approach to conduct genome-wide association studies for lung, ovary, breast, prostate, ... -
Genome-wide association study identifies susceptibility loci for B-cell childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Vijayakrishnan, J; Studd, J; Broderick, P; Kinnersley, B; Holroyd, A; et al. (NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-04-09)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have advanced our understanding of susceptibility to B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL); however, much of the heritable risk remains unidentified. Here, we perform ... -
Genome-wide association study implicates immune dysfunction in the development of Hodgkin lymphoma.
Sud, A; Thomsen, H; Orlando, G; Försti, A; Law, PJ; et al. (AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2018-11-08)To further our understanding of inherited susceptibility to Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), we performed a meta-analysis of 7 genome-wide association studies totaling 5325 HL cases and 22 423 control patients. We identify 5 new HL ... -
Genome-wide association study of classical Hodgkin lymphoma identifies key regulators of disease susceptibility.
Sud, A; Thomsen, H; Law, PJ; Försti, A; Filho, MIDS; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-12-01)Several susceptibility loci for classical Hodgkin lymphoma have been reported. However, much of the heritable risk is unknown. Here, we perform a meta-analysis of two existing genome-wide association studies, a new genome-wide ... -
Genome-Wide Meta-Analyses of Breast, Ovarian, and Prostate Cancer Association Studies Identify Multiple New Susceptibility Loci Shared by at Least Two Cancer Types.
Kar, SP; Beesley, J; Amin Al Olama, A; Michailidou, K; Tyrer, J; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-09-01)UNLABELLED: Breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers are hormone-related and may have a shared genetic basis, but this has not been investigated systematically by genome-wide association (GWA) studies. Meta-analyses combining ... -
Identification of 19 new risk loci and potential regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumor.
Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Orlando, G; Loveday, C; Law, PJ; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-01)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed understanding of susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. Here we report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis ... -
Identification of multiple risk loci and regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to multiple myeloma.
Went, M; Sud, A; Försti, A; Halvarsson, B-M; Weinhold, N; et al. (2018-09-13)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of susceptibility to multiple myeloma (MM), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. We report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis with previous ... -
Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for testicular cancer, including variants near DAZL and PRDM14.
Ruark, E; Seal, S; McDonald, H; Zhang, F; Elliot, A; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-06-01)Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men and is notable for its high familial risks. So far, six loci associated with TGCT have been reported. From genome-wide association study (GWAS) ... -
Large-scale Analysis Demonstrates Familial Testicular Cancer to have Polygenic Aetiology.
Loveday, C; Law, P; Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Holroyd, A; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)UNLABELLED: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Multiplex TGCT families have been well reported and analyses of population cancer registries have demonstrated a four- to eightfold ... -
PALB2, CHEK2 and ATM rare variants and cancer risk: data from COGS.
Southey, MC; Goldgar, DE; Winqvist, R; Pylkäs, K; Couch, F; et al. (BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-12-01)BACKGROUND: The rarity of mutations in PALB2, CHEK2 and ATM make it difficult to estimate precisely associated cancer risks. Population-based family studies have provided evidence that at least some of these mutations are ... -
Shared heritability and functional enrichment across six solid cancers.
Jiang, X; Finucane, HK; Schumacher, FR; Schmit, SL; Tyrer, JP; et al. (NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-01-25)Quantifying the genetic correlation between cancers can provide important insights into the mechanisms driving cancer etiology. Using genome-wide association study summary statistics across six cancer types based on a total ... -
Validation of loci at 2q14.2 and 15q21.3 as risk factors for testicular cancer.
