Abbreviations: (E/R), (effect/reference) alleles; EAF: effect allele frequency.

a

The new associations are in bold text and listed first.

b

Build 37 coordinates.

c

Imputation accuracy, r2, in iCOGS European samples.

d

Previously published genome-wide significant associations for rs6763931 (prostate cancer) and rs11571833 (breast cancer) did not reach P < 5 × 10−8 in the data sets used for the current study.

e

Results reported here are for ER-negative breast cancer and serous invasive ovarian cancer as the effect size estimates (odds ratios) were larger for the subtype-specific associations when compared to overall breast cancer and all invasive ovarian cancer.

f

Genotyped SNP.
