Genetic variants in the 8q24 locus and risk of testicular germ cell tumors
AssociationN=1,248Michael B. Cook et al.(2008)· Human Genetics

This case-control study investigated 15 SNPs at the 8q24 locus for association with testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) using 568 cases and 680 controls from the STEED military study. Overall, no significant associations were found between 8q24 SNPs and TGCT risk. However, nonseminomas showed three tentative associations: rs6470494 (OR=1.68 for GG genotype, p=0.04), rs13254738 (OR=1.62 for TT genotype, p=0.07), and an inverse association with rs10505476 (OR=0.67 for CT genotype, p=0.04).
