Deskripsi
While genetic loci shared between cancer types have been identified, cross-cancer relationships for polygenic risk scores have not been well studied. Here, the authors have developed polygenic risk scores for 16 cancers in two large cohorts and identified positive and inverse cross-cancer associations.
