Polygenic risk modeling for prediction of epithelial ovarian cancer risk.
European journal of human genetics : EJHG ·doi:10.1038/s41431-021-00987-7

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have the potential to improve risk stratification. Joint estimation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) effects in models could improve predictive performance over standard…

Identification of 12 new susceptibility loci for different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer.
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/ng.3826

To identify common alleles associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we pooled data from multiple genome-wide genotyping projects totaling 25,509 EOC cases and 40,941 controls. We identified nine new susceptib…

No clinical utility of KRAS variant rs61764370 for ovarian or breast cancer.
Gynecologic Oncology ·doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2015.04.034

ObjectiveClinical genetic testing is commercially available for rs61764370, an inherited variant residing in a KRAS 3' UTR microRNA binding site, based on suggested associations with increased ovarian and breast cancer risk as well as with …

Germline Mutations in the BRIP1, BARD1, PALB2, and NBN Genes in Women With Ovarian Cancer.
Journal of the National Cancer Institute ·doi:10.1093/jnci/djv214

BackgroundEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecological malignancy, responsible for 13 000 deaths per year in the United States. Risk prediction based on identifying germline mutations in ovarian cancer susceptibility gen…

Identification of six new susceptibility loci for invasive epithelial ovarian cancer.
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/ng.3185

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 12 epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility alleles. The pattern of association at these loci is consistent in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers who are at high risk of EOC. After…
