Journal ArticleDOI

The OncoArray Consortium: A Network for Understanding the Genetic Architecture of Common Cancers.

Christopher I. Amos, +99 more
TL;DR: Results from these analyses will enable researchers to identify new susceptibility loci, perform fine-mapping of new or known loci associated with either single or multiple cancers, assess the degree of overlap in cancer causation and pleiotropic effects of loci that have been identified for disease-specific risk, and jointly model genetic, environmental, and lifestyle-related exposures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast Cancer Risk From Modifiable and Nonmodifiable Risk Factors Among White Women in the United States.

Paige Maas, +54 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: This model for absolute risk of breast cancer including SNPs can provide stratification for the population of white women in the United States and can identify subsets of the population at an elevated risk that would benefit most from risk-reduction strategies based on altering modifiable factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seven prostate cancer susceptibility loci identified by a multi-stage genome-wide association study

Zsofia Kote-Jarai, +144 more
- 01 Aug 2011 - 
TL;DR: The results of stage 3 are reported, in which 1,536 SNPs are evaluated in 4,574 individuals with prostate cancer (cases) and 4,164 controls and a SNP in TERT more strongly associated with PrCa than that previously reported is identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity. A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults

Mariaelisa Graff, +349 more
- 27 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: In additional genome-wide meta-analyses adjusting for PA and interaction with PA, 11 novel adiposity loci are identified, suggesting that accounting for PA or other environmental factors that contribute to variation in adiposity may facilitate gene discovery.
