Association analyses of more than 140,000 men identify 63 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci

Fredrick R. Schumacher, +207 more
- 11 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: A large meta-analysis combining genome-wide and custom high-density genotyping array data identifies 63 new susceptibility loci for prostate cancer, enhancing fine-mapping efforts and providing insights into the underlying biology of PrCa1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of 23 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci using the iCOGS custom genotyping array

Rosalind A. Eeles, +156 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a custom Illumina array (iCOGS) was used to genotype 211,155 SNPs in blood DNA from 25,074 prostate cancer cases and 24,272 controls from the international PRACTICAL Consortium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of seven new prostate cancer susceptibility loci through a genome-wide association study

Rosalind A. Eeles, +106 more
- 01 Oct 2009 - 
TL;DR: The study is extended to evaluate promising associations in a second stage in which 43,671 SNPs are genotyped in 3,650 PrCa cases and 3,940 controls and in a third stage involving an additional 16,229 cases and 14,821 controls from 21 studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of prostate cancer identifies new susceptibility loci and informs genetic risk prediction

David V. Conti, +254 more
- 04 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 cases and 127,006 controls) and identified 86 new genetic risk variants independently associated with prostate cancer risk, bringing the total to 269 known risk variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fine-mapping identifies multiple prostate cancer risk loci at 5p15, one of which associates with TERT expression

Zsofia Kote-Jarai, +86 more
TL;DR: Gene expression analysis of normal prostate tissue showed evidence that SNPs within one of these regions also associated with TERT expression, providing a potential mechanism for predisposition to disease.
