Lynch syndrome (LS) patients are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC). Phenotypic variability might in part be explained by common susceptibility loci identified in Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS). Previous studies focused mostly on MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 carriers, with conflicting results. We aimed to determine the role of GWAS SNPs in PMS2 mutation carriers. A cohort study was...
Optimally accurate and valid estimates of cancer risk in genetically-defined subgroups requires population-based research. For rare genetic traits, very large studies are needed. Such is the case in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome (HNPCC), caused by mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes. A potentially more efficient approach is genotyped-proband design (GPD), in which probands...
