aThe P-value cut-off used for selecting SNPs based on their marginal associations with cancer risk and then in stepwise regression in the training set.

bOR per 1 SD for the PRS. OR for association with breast cancer in the validation set was derived using logistic regression adjusting for age, consortium/study and 10 PCs. AUC of PRSs was calculated under the covariate-adjusted ROC model adjusting for age, consortium/study and 10 PCs of genotype data. PRS models highlighted were used for further analysis.
