A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies to identify prostate cancer susceptibility loci associated with aggressive and non-aggressive disease

Ali Amin Al Olama, +146 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a meta-analysis of four GWAS including 5953 cases of aggressive prostate cancer and 11 463 controls (men without PrCa) and computed association tests for approximately 2.6 million SNPs and followed up the most significant SNPs by genotyping 49 121 samples through the international PRACTICAL and BPC3 consortia.

Androgen withdrawal in patients reduces prostate cancer hypoxia : Implications for disease progression and radiation response

TL;DR: Results might explain the improved patient outcome that has been observed in clinical trials of radiotherapy and hormones, and suggest a role for novel therapeutic agents that block the molecular response to hypoxia in prostate cancer either alone or in combination with other established treatments.
