- Although the etiology of women’s cancer has been extensively studied in the last few decades, there is still little evidence comparing the temporal pattern of these cancers among different populations.MethodsCancer incidence and mortality data from 1988 to 2015 were extracted from the Changle Cancer Register in China, and cancer incidence data for Los Angeles were extracted from Cancer Incidence in Five Continents plus database. A Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the temporal trends of incidence and mortality for breast, cervical, corpus uteri and ovarian cancers. The standardized incidence ratios were applied to compare the cancer risk across populations.ResultsAn increasing trend of incidence rate for breast, cervical, corpus uteri and ovarian cancer was observed in Changle, although the rate leveled off for breast and cervical cancer after 2010, although not statistically significant. The mortality rate of breast and ovarian cancer was slightly increased during this period, while we found a decreased mortality of cervical cancer from 2010. The mortality of corpus uteri cancer showed a decreasing and then increasing trend. The incidence of breast, corpus uteri and ovarian cancer in Chinese American immigrants in Los Angeles was significantly higher than indigenous Changle Chinese and lower than Los Angeles whites. However, the incidence of cervical cancer in Chinese American immigrants shifted from significantly exceeding to lower than Changle Chinese.ConclusionThe incidence and mortality of women’s cancers in Changle were generally on the rise, and this study concluded that environmental changes were important factors affecting the occurrence of these cancers. Appropriate preventive measures should be taken to control the occurrence of women’s cancers by addressing different influencing factors.

- Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have the potential to improve risk stratification. Joint estimation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) effects in models could improve predictive performance over standard approaches of PRS construction. Here, we implemented computationally efficient, penalized, logistic regression models (lasso, elastic net, stepwise) to individual level genotype data and a Bayesian framework with continuous shrinkage, “select and shrink for summary statistics” (S4), to summary level data for epithelial non-mucinous ovarian cancer risk prediction. We developed the models in a dataset consisting of 23,564 non-mucinous EOC cases and 40,138 controls participating in the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (OCAC) and validated the best models in three populations of different ancestries: prospective data from 198,101 women of European ancestries; 7,669 women of East Asian ancestries; 1,072 women of African ancestries, and in 18,915 BRCA1 and 12,337 BRCA2 pathogenic variant carriers of European ancestries. In the external validation data, the model with the strongest association for non-mucinous EOC risk derived from the OCAC model development data was the S4 model (27,240 SNPs) with odds ratios (OR) of 1.38 (95% CI: 1.28–1.48, AUC: 0.588) per unit standard deviation, in women of European ancestries; 1.14 (95% CI: 1.08–1.19, AUC: 0.538) in women of East Asian ancestries; 1.38 (95% CI: 1.21–1.58, AUC: 0.593) in women of African ancestries; hazard ratios of 1.36 (95% CI: 1.29–1.43, AUC: 0.592) in BRCA1 pathogenic variant carriers and 1.49 (95% CI: 1.35–1.64, AUC: 0.624) in BRCA2 pathogenic variant carriers. Incorporation of the S4 PRS in risk prediction models for ovarian cancer may have clinical utility in ovarian cancer prevention programs.

A polygenic risk score for nasopharyngeal carcinoma shows potential for risk stratification and personalized screening

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have the potential to identify individuals at risk of diseases, optimizing treatment, and predicting survival outcomes. Here, we construct and validate a genome-wide association study (GWAS) derived PRS for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), using a multi-center study of six populations (6 059 NPC cases and 7 582 controls), and evaluate its utility in a nested case-control study. We show that the PRS enables effective identification of NPC high-risk individuals (AUC = 0.65) and improves the risk prediction with the PRS incremental deciles in each population (Ptrend ranging from 2.79 × 10−7 to 4.79 × 10−44). By incorporating the PRS into EBV-serology-based NPC screening, the test’s positive predictive value (PPV) is increased from an average of 4.84% to 8.38% and 11.91% in the top 10% and 5% PRS, respectively. In summary, the GWAS-derived PRS, together with the EBV test, significantly improves NPC risk stratification and informs personalized screening.
