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…

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…

Joint IARC/NCI International Cancer Seminar Series Report: expert consensus on future directions for ovarian carcinoma research.
Carcinogenesis ·doi:10.1093/carcin/bgab043

Recently, ovarian cancer research has evolved considerably because of the emerging recognition that rather than a single disease, ovarian carcinomas comprise several different histotypes that vary by etiologic origin, risk factors, molecula…

Massively parallel reporter assays of melanoma risk variants identify MX2 as a gene promoting melanoma.
Nature communications ·doi:10.1038/s41467-020-16590-1

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified ~20 melanoma susceptibility loci, most of which are not functionally characterized. Here we report an approach integrating massively-parallel reporter assays (MPRA) with cell-type-speci…

Discovery of common and rare genetic risk variants for colorectal cancer.
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/s41588-018-0286-6

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…

Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for endometrial cancer.
Nature communications ·doi:10.1038/s41467-018-05427-7

Endometrial cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer of the female reproductive tract in developed countries. Through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), we have previously identified eight risk loci for endometrial cancer. Here, we…

The OncoArray Consortium: A Network for Understanding the Genetic Architecture of Common Cancers.
Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.epi-16-0106

BackgroundCommon cancers develop through a multistep process often including inherited susceptibility. Collaboration among multiple institutions, and funding from multiple sources, has allowed the development of an inexpensive genotyping mi…

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 …
