Endometrioid and mucinous ovarian carcinomas represent nearly a fifth of ovarian cancers, but their molecular characteristics and pathologic origins are poorly understood. To identify the genomic and epigenomic alterations characteristic of…
Kaplan-Meier survival curves for ovarian cancer patients with and without mutations in the PI3K and WNT pathways. (a, b) Alterations in the PI3K pathway trended towards increased survival among patients with ovarian endometrioid carcinomas …
To further dissect the genetic architecture of colorectal cancer (CRC), we performed whole-genome sequencing of 1,439 cases and 720 controls, imputed discovered sequence variants and Haplotype Reference Consortium panel variants into genome…
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…
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 …
