Genome-wide association analysis of more than 120,000 individuals identifies 15 new susceptibility loci for breast cancer

- 09 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: 15 new loci associated with breast cancer at P < 5 × 10−8 are identified, and one association appears to be driven by an amino acid substitution encoded in EXO1, which is found in women of European ancestry.
