CDKN2A, Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A; CI, confidence interval; nd, not discussed.

Bolded studies reflect large consortium-based data sets.

*

CDKN2A negative families fulfilled the same eligibility criteria as CDKN2A positive families; study dependent.

Population in which common mutation accounts for majority of CDKN2A mutations identified.

Median age of diagnosis in general population was 60 y.

§

Median age of diagnosis in general population was 54 y.
