Abstract

Previous genome-wide association studies among women of European ancestry identified two independent breast cancer susceptibility loci represented by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13281615 and rs11780156 at 8q24. We conducted a fine-mapping study across 2.06 Mb (chr8:127,561,724 −129,624,067, hg19) in 55,540 breast cancer cases and 51,168 controls within the Breast Cancer Association Consortium. We found three additional independent association signals in women of European ancestry, represented by rs35961416 (OR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.93-0.97, conditional P = 5.8 × 10−6), rs7815245 (OR = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.91-0.96, conditional P = 1.1 × 10−6), and rs2033101 (OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.02-1.07, conditional P = 1.1 × 10−4). Integrative analysis using functional genomic data from the Roadmap Epigenomics, the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements project, the Cancer Genome Atlas, and other public resources implied that SNPs rs7815245 in Signal 3, and rs1121948 in Signal 5 (in linkage disequilibrium with rs11780156, r2 = 0.77), were putatively functional variants for two of the five independent association signals. Our results highlight multiple 8q24 variants associated with breast cancer susceptibility in women of European ancestry.

<p id="P1">Previous genome-wide association studies among women of European ancestry identified two independent breast cancer susceptibility loci represented by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13281615 and rs11780156 at 8q24. We conducted a fine-mapping study across 2.06 Mb (chr8:127,561,724 −129,624,067, hg19) in 55,540 breast cancer cases and 51,168 controls within the Breast Cancer Association Consortium. We found three additional independent association signals in women of European ancestry, represented by rs35961416 (OR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.93-0.97, conditional
<italic>P</italic>
= 5.8 × 10
<sup>−6</sup>
), rs7815245 (OR = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.91-0.96, conditional
<italic>P</italic>
= 1.1 × 10
<sup>−6</sup>
), and rs2033101 (OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.02-1.07, conditional
<italic>P</italic>
= 1.1 × 10
<sup>−4</sup>
). Integrative analysis using functional genomic data from the Roadmap Epigenomics, the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements project, the Cancer Genome Atlas, and other public resources implied that SNPs rs7815245 in Signal 3, and rs1121948 in Signal 5 (in linkage disequilibrium with rs11780156, r
<sup>2</sup>
= 0.77), were putatively functional variants for two of the five independent association signals. Our results highlight multiple 8q24 variants associated with breast cancer susceptibility in women of European ancestry.</p>

<abstract>
<p id="P1">Previous genome-wide association studies among women of European ancestry identified two independent breast cancer susceptibility loci represented by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13281615 and rs11780156 at 8q24. We conducted a fine-mapping study across 2.06 Mb (chr8:127,561,724 −129,624,067, hg19) in 55,540 breast cancer cases and 51,168 controls within the Breast Cancer Association Consortium. We found three additional independent association signals in women of European ancestry, represented by rs35961416 (OR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.93-0.97, conditional

), rs7815245 (OR = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.91-0.96, conditional

), and rs2033101 (OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.02-1.07, conditional
<italic>P</italic>
= 1.1 × 10

). Integrative analysis using functional genomic data from the Roadmap Epigenomics, the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements project, the Cancer Genome Atlas, and other public resources implied that SNPs rs7815245 in Signal 3, and rs1121948 in Signal 5 (in linkage disequilibrium with rs11780156, r

= 0.77), were putatively functional variants for two of the five independent association signals. Our results highlight multiple 8q24 variants associated with breast cancer susceptibility in women of European ancestry.</p>
