Integrative multi-omics analyses to identify the genetic and functional mechanisms underlying ovarian cancer risk regions
American journal of human genetics ·doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2024.04.011

To identify credible causal risk variants (CCVs) associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we performed genome-wide association analysis for 470,825 genotyped and 10,163,797 imputed SNPs in 25,981 EOC cases an…

Copy Number Variants Are Ovarian Cancer Risk Alleles at Known and Novel Risk Loci
Journal of the National Cancer Institute ·doi:10.1093/jnci/djac160

BACKGROUND: Known risk alleles for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) account for approximately 40% of the heritability for EOC. Copy number variants (CNVs) have not been investigated as EOC risk alleles in a large population cohort. METHODS:…

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…
