TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage genome-wide association study of pancreatic cancer, a cancer with one of the lowest survival rates worldwide, was conducted, where 558,542 SNPs were genotyped in 1,896 individuals and 1,939 controls drawn from 12 prospective cohorts plus one hospital-based case-control study.

TL;DR: An association between a locus on 9q34 and pancreatic cancer marked by the SNP rs505922 is identified, consistent with earlier epidemiologic evidence suggesting that people with blood group O may have a lower risk of pancreaticcancer than those with groups A or B.

TL;DR: This paper conducted a genome-wide association study of pancreatic cancer in 3,851 affected individuals (cases) and 3,934 unaffected controls drawn from 12 prospective cohort studies and 8 case-control studies and identified eight SNPs that map to three loci on chromosomes 13q22.1, 1q32.1 and 5p15.33.

TL;DR: This study has identified common susceptibility loci for pancreatic cancer that warrant follow-up studies and identified eight SNPs that map to three loci on chromosomes 13q22.1, 1q32.1 and 5p15.1 that are associated with multiple cancers.
