Case‐only analysis: weighted genetic risk scores and prostate cancer stage and grade (PRACTICAL consortium)

Outcome Localized/low grade (n) Advanced/high grade (n) ORa 95% CI P value
LDL score
Advanced versus localized 13,707 4301 0.91 0.51, 1.64 0.77
High grade versus low grade 9237 8515 1.50 0.92, 2.46 0.11
HDL score
Advanced versus localized 13,707 4301 1.02 0.74, 1.39 0.92
High grade versus low grade 9237 8515 1.03 0.79, 1.34 0.82
TG score
Advanced versus localized 13,707 4301 1.68 0.95, 3.00 0.08
High grade versus low grade 9237 8515 0.93 0.57, 1.52 0.77

Advanced (T3 to T4 or SEER staging regional or distant), localized (T1 to T2 or SEER staging localized), high grade (Gleason ≥7), low grade (Gleason ≤6).

LDL, low‐density lipoprotein; HDL, high‐density lipoprotein; TG, triglyceride; OR, odds ratio.

a

Per unit increase in genetic risk score (SD trait), adjusted for top eight principal components (higher LDL/TG scores reflect increasing circulating LDL/TG, higher HDL scores reflect lower circulating HDL).
