    Abstract: Chromosome 8q24 is a susceptibility locus for multiple cancers, including prostate cancer. Here we combine genetic data across the 8q24 susceptibility region from 71,535 prostate cancer cases and 52,935 controls of European ancestry to define the overall contribution of germline variation at 8q24 to prostate cancer risk. We identify 12 independent risk signals for prostate cancer ( p   〈  4.28 × 10 −15 ), including three risk variants that have yet to be reported. From a polygenic risk score (PRS) model, derived to assess the cumulative effect of risk variants at 8q24, men in the top 1% of the PRS have a 4-fold (95%CI = 3.62–4.40) greater risk compared to the population average. These 12 variants account for ~25% of what can be currently explained of the familial risk of prostate cancer by known genetic risk factors. These findings highlight the overwhelming contribution of germline variation at 8q24 on prostate cancer risk which has implications for population risk stratification.

    Abstract: Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in European populations have identified genetic risk variants associated with multiple myeloma. Methods: We performed association testing of common variation in eight regions in 1,318 patients with multiple myeloma and 1,480 controls of European ancestry and 1,305 patients with multiple myeloma and 7,078 controls of African ancestry and conducted a meta-analysis to localize the signals, with epigenetic annotation used to predict functionality. Results: We found that variants in 7p15.3, 17p11.2, 22q13.1 were statistically significantly (P & lt; 0.05) associated with multiple myeloma risk in persons of African ancestry and persons of European ancestry, and the variant in 3p22.1 was associated in European ancestry only. In a combined African ancestry–European ancestry meta-analysis, variation in five regions (2p23.3, 3p22.1, 7p15.3, 17p11.2, 22q13.1) was statistically significantly associated with multiple myeloma risk. In 3p22.1, the correlated variants clustered within the gene body of ULK4. Correlated variants in 7p15.3 clustered around an enhancer at the 3′ end of the CDCA7L transcription termination site. A missense variant at 17p11.2 (rs34562254, Pro251Leu, OR, 1.32; P = 2.93 × 10−7) in TNFRSF13B encodes a lymphocyte-specific protein in the TNF receptor family that interacts with the NF-κB pathway. SNPs correlated with the index signal in 22q13.1 cluster around the promoter and enhancer regions of CBX7. Conclusions: We found that reported multiple myeloma susceptibility regions contain risk variants important across populations, supporting the use of multiple racial/ethnic groups with different underlying genetic architecture to enhance the localization and identification of putatively functional alleles. Impact: A subset of reported risk loci for multiple myeloma has consistent effects across populations and is likely to be functional. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 25(12); 1609–18. ©2016 AACR.

    Abstract: There are few published familial relative risks (RR) for lethal prostate cancer. This study estimates RRs for lethal prostate cancer based on comprehensive family history data, with the goal of improving identification of those men at highest risk of dying from prostate cancer. METHODS We used a population‐based genealogical resource linked to a statewide electronic SEER cancer registry and death certificates to estimate relative risks (RR) for death from prostate cancer based upon family history. Over 600,000 male probands were analyzed, representing a variety of family history constellations of lethal prostate cancer. RR estimates were based on the ratio of the observed to the expected number of lethal prostate cancer cases using internal rates. RESULTS RRs for lethal prostate cancer based on the number of affected first‐degree relatives (FDR) ranged from 2.49 (95% CI: 2.27, 2.73) for exactly 1 FDR to 5.30 (2.13, 10.93) for ≥3 affected FDRs. In an absence of affected FDRs, increased risk was also significant for increasing numbers of affected second‐degree or third degree relatives. Equivalent risks were observed for similar maternal and paternal family history. CONCLUSIONS This study provides population‐based estimates of lethal prostate cancer risk based on lethal prostate cancer family history. Many family history constellations associated with two to greater than five times increased risk for lethal prostate cancer were identified. These lethal prostate cancer risk estimates hold potential for use in identification, screening, early diagnosis, and treatment of men at high risk for death from prostate cancer.

    Abstract: 162 Background: Germline variations in genes involved in androgen biosynthesis and metabolic pathways may predict time to response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in advanced prostate cancer, serve as prognostic and predictive biomarkers, and guide towards more individualized upfront therapy. Methods: 47 polymorphisms (PMs) in 22 genes involved in the androgen metabolic pathway were investigated using tagging SNPs for association with time to onset of castration resistance in 144 Caucasian men diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer undergoing ADT. Linear regression was employed using Gleason score as a covariate and assessing each SNP under one of three genetic models: 1) an additive model in which the number of minor alleles contributes increasing risk (or protection), 2) a dominant model in which the presence of 1 or 2 minor alleles have the same effect, and 3) a recessive model in which the presence of 2 minor alleles are necessary. Results: PMs in 3 genes (CYP1A1, HSD17B3, and HSD17B12) were significantly associated with time to prostate cancer recurrence after medical castration while controlling for Gleason Score. Table summarizes the genes found to be significantly associated with time to recurrence and the modes of inheritance considered. (Only SNPs found to be nominally significant (p 〈 .05) either with or without controlling for Gleason score in at least one model are shown.) Conclusions: In this preliminary report of ongoing work, germ line variations in multiple genes in the sex steroid hormone metabolic pathway predicted time to response to ADT, and warrant further validation to define their role as prognostic and predictive markers in this setting.

    Abstract: 175 Background: There are few published reports of relative risk (RR) for LPC based on family history of prostate cancer (PC) lethality. This study provides LPC RR using complete LPC family history data obtained from a statewide Cancer Registry linked to a genealogy database. Methods: The Utah Population Data Base (UPDB), which includes a statewide SEER cancer registry, includes 1,192,768 individuals with at least 12 of their 14 immediate ancestors. All males (probands) with specific LPC constellations were identified in the UPDB, and the observed number of LPC cases among these probands was compared to the expected number of LPC cases using internal cohort-specific rates from Utah death certificates including all deceased males with no 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree relatives with LPC. LPC Family history was estimated for 1st degree to 3rd degree relatives for: number of LPC relatives affected, paternal versus maternal family history, and age at first PC diagnosis. Results: 3,921 individuals in UPDB were diagnosed with histologically confirmed PC, and had a Utah death certificate indicating PC as a cause of death and were designated LPC. The RR for LPC was significantly elevated with each additional first-degree relative (FDR) with LPC; even in the absence of FDR family history of LPC, significantly increased risk for LPC was observed in the presence of at least 1 LPC affected second degree relative (SDR). In the absence of positive FDR and SDR family history for LPC, there was still increased risk for LPC for males with 2 or more third degree relatives with LPC. Early age PC diagnosis in the LPC relative did not appear to affect LPC RR. Higher risks of LPC were associated with the maternal compared to the paternal lineages. Conclusions: Examination of lethal prostate cancer family history (in FDRs through TDRs) may be useful in identifying the cohort of men with prostate cancer most at risk for death from prostate cancer. Focused screening and treatment of this cohort holds potential to decrease the rates of undertreatment of lethal disease while avoiding over diagnosis and overtreatment in inconsequential disease.

    Abstract: 222 Background: Germline variations in genes involved in androgen biosynthesis and metabolic pathways may predict response to AA in men with mCRPC, serve as prognostic and predictive biomarkers, and guide towards more individualized therapy. Methods: 836 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the Illumina OmniExpress genotyping platform within the boundaries of 61 genes reported to be involved in the androgen metabolic pathway were investigated for association with time to treatment failure (TTF) in 68 Caucasian men with mCRPC undergoing treatment with AA. Cox proportional hazard analysis was employed using Gleason score as a covariate and assessing each SNP under an additive genetic model in which the number of minor alleles contributes increasing risk (or protection). Results: Three SNPs in SULT1E1 were associated with TTF on AA therapy after correcting for multiple testing (p 〈 .00007) while controlling for Gleason Score (Table). Conclusions: SNPs in SULT1E1(estrogen sulfotransferase gene) were significantly associated with TTF on AA therapy, and may serve as predictive markers to treatment with AA. Further validation is being performed in a larger cohort of men with mCRPC. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 224 Background: Germline variations in genes involved in androgen biosynthesis and metabolic pathways may predict time to response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in aHSPC, serve as prognostic and predictive biomarkers, and guide towards more individualized upfront therapy. Methods: 706 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the Illumina OmniExpress genotyping platform within the boundaries of 59 genes reported to be involved in the androgen metabolic pathway were investigated for association with time to onset of castration resistance prostate cancer (CRPC) in 171 Caucasian men with aHSPC, i.e. those progressing after definitive treatment (biochemical recurrence alone, or onset of metastatic disease), undergoing treatment with ADT. Cox proportional hazard analysis was employed using Gleason score as a covariate and assessing each SNP under an additive genetic model in which the number of minor alleles contributes increasing risk (or protection). Results: Five SNPs in four genes showed evidence of association with time to CRPC on ADT while controlling for Gleason Score (p 〈 .0002) (Table). Each of these genes had other nearby SNPs with at least nominal (p 〈 0.05) significance and so, don’t appear to be false positives. Conclusions: Although none of these SNPs exceeded a strict Bonferoni multiple testing correction (p 〈 0.00007), that threshold is almost certainly conservative as the SNPs and tests are correlated. These results are being validated in a larger cohort and may serve as predictive markers to ADT in this setting. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 159 Background: Using the unique Utah genealogical resource that links 12 generations of genealogy data to a statewide cancer registry from 1966 and statewide death certificates from 1904 we have identified a set of high-risk prostate cancer pedigrees with multiple cases having died from prostate cancer. Methods: Clusters of prostate cancer cases descended from a common ancestor, among whose descendants is observed a statistical excess of prostate cancer (high-risk prostate cancer pedigrees) were recruited and sampled. Pedigrees with 4 or more cases dying from prostate cancer (as evidenced by inclusion as a cause of death on a Utah death certificate) were genotyped with 720k high-density SNPs across the genome. Linkage analysis with markers not in linkage disequilibrium was performed to identify regions hypothesized to contain a prostate cancer predisposition gene. Results: A single extended Utah high-risk prostate cancer pedigree including 6 distantly related sampled prostate cancer cases who went on to die as a result of their cancer showed significant evidence for linkage at chromosome arm 4q24 (LOD score = +3.28), with 5 of the 6 cases having inherited the same region of chromosome 4 from a common ancestor. Conclusions: The inability of association studies to identify prostate cancer predisposition genes has returned focus to linkage studies of highly informative high-risk pedigrees, which provide power for identifying and localizing regions of interest for predisposition genes. A focus on only those cases who are members of high-risk prostate cancer pedigrees, who also went on to die as a result of their prostate cancer, has resulted in the identification of evidence for a prostate cancer predisposition gene on chromosome arm 4q24, confirming a previous GWAS that reported association with prostate-cancer-specific-survival (Pomerantz MM et al., 2011) in this region harboring TET2 (a tumor suppressor gene involved in pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and myeloproliferative neoplasms), and PP2A (implicated in androgen receptor regulation in prostate cancer cell lines).
