The CDH1‐160C&gt;A polymorphism is a risk factor for colorectal cancer
AssociationN=1,926Alan M. Pittman et al.(2009)· International Journal of Cancer

This study examined the relationship between 233 colorectal cancer (CRC) risk loci and overall survival in 1,926 patients with advanced CRC from clinical trials. Two SNPs significantly associated with survival under a recessive model were identified: rs117079142 (HR=2.79, 95% CI=1.70-4.58, P=4.7×10⁻⁵) mapping to UTP23/EIF3H, and rs9924886 (HR=1.24, 95% CI=1.12-1.38, P=5.2×10⁻⁵) mapping to CDH1/CDH3. Low CDH1 gene expression in tumors was associated with worse survival (HR=2.18, P=1.8×10⁻³), supporting a prognostic role for CDH1 variants.
