Genetic and Health Determinants of Cancer Risk in Bangladeshi and Pakistani South Asians in the UK

2025-12-11

Abstract excerpt

South Asian populations remain underrepresented in cancer genomics, despite elevated risk for certain malignancies and distinct clinical profiles. This gap is especially pronounced for British Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities. We analysed data from 57,416 individuals of Bangladeshi and Pakistani ancestry in the UK-based Genes & Health cohort, integrating electronic health records, cancer registry data, and w...
