Risk for smoking-related cancer among relatives of lung cancer patients.

Cancer research - 1 Dec 2003

Abstract excerpt

Studies of familial aggregation of cancer provide indirect evidence for the role of genetic predisposition to cancer. In an ongoing case-control study, we evaluated whether first-degree relatives of lung cancer cases are at increased risk of lung and other cancers. Smoking-related cancers were defined as cancers of the lung, bladder, head and neck, kidney, and pancreas. The 806 probands included in this analysis...
