Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Survival in follicular lymphoma (FL) is highly variable, even within prognostic groups defined by tumor grade and the Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index. Studies suggest that germline single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may hold prognostic information but further investigation is needed. METHODS: We explored the association between SNPs and FL outcome using two approaches: 1) Two...
