Associations between heritable factors previously associated with ALL risk and age at diagnosis (in months) among Hispanic CCLS participants with B-cell ALL.
| Heritable factor previously associated with ALL risk | Effect (95% CI)* | P* |
|---|---|---|
| %European ancestry | −5.97 (−0.36, −11.57) | 0.037 |
| %Native American ancestry | 5.98 (0.37, 11.64) | 0.037 |
| rs4132601-G (IKZF1) | −1.06 (−7.68, 5.64) | 0.75 |
| rs3731217-T (CDKN2A) | 4.44 (−9.12, 17.88) | 0.52 |
| rs3824662-A (GATA3) | 2.59 (−3.80, 8.99) | 0.52 |
| rs7088318-A (PIP4K2A) | −0.85 (−8.04, 6.36) | 0.82 |
| rs7089424-C (ARID5B) | −2.28 (−8.88, 4.32) | 0.50 |
| rs2239633-G (CEBPE) | −2.96 (−9.34, 3.41) | 0.36 |
| Global genetic risk score (risk allele sum) | −0.56 (−3.37, 2.26) | 0.70 |
Effect size (measured in months) is generated from a multivariable linear regression model where “age at diagnosis” is the dependent variable, adjusting for: sex, income, %African ancestry, hyperdiploidy, and TEL-AML1 status. Positive values indicate older age at diagnosis with an increasing number of risk alleles or with each 20% increase in % ancestry. Negative values indicate younger age at diagnosis with an increasing number of risk alleles or with each 20% increase in Native American or European ancestry. P-values are two-sided and are derived from these regression models (Ho: Beta=0).
