Identification of 12 new susceptibility loci for different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer

Paul Pharoah and colleagues report the results of a large genome-wide association study of ovarian cancer. They identify new susceptibility loci for different epithelial ovarian cancer histotypes and use integrated analyses of genes and regulatory features at each locus to predict candidate susceptibility genes, including OBFC1. To identify common alleles associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we pooled data...
