Association of variations in HLA class II and other loci with susceptibility to EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma
Lung adenocarcinoma driven by somatic EGFR mutations is more prevalent in East Asians (30–50%) than in European/Americans (10–20%). Here we investigate genetic factors underlying the risk of this disease by conducting a genome-wide association study, followed by two validation studies, in 3,173 Japa...
