Higher polygenic risk for melanoma is associated with improved survival

2022-03-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Although there are well-known prognostic factors for survival from cutaneous melanoma (CM) such as primary tumour thickness and stage of the tumour at diagnosis, the role of germline genetic factors in determining survival is not well understood. <h4>Objective</h4> To perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of melanoma-specific survival (MSS), and test whe...
