Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The potential of genomics to personalize and thereby improve diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of individuals has long been recognized, but so far evidence of the opportunity for genomics to drive prevention remains limited. Recent advances in research on Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) have created new interest about the use of genetic information in prevention of common diseases and its application to risk stratification. A long-lasting open question is whether common genetic variants used to build PRS are able to predict the risk of developing complex diseases with enough power to be used in a clinical setting.
The lack of large enough dataset able to allow an unbiased PRS validation, hampered this question to be answered for many years. This study builds upon the StoP project (a consortium collecting data from about 13,500 GC cases and 32,000 controls) and the UK Biobank (480 GC cases and 338,000 controls) to develop a Polygenic Risk Score for gastric cancer.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
StoP Consortium + UK Biobank
In the PRS development 338,480 cases and controls from the UK Biobank + 3,650 cases and controls from the StoP consortium studies are going to be enrolled.
Cases are defined as primary gastric carcinoma patients, with histological confirmation.
Controls are selected from cancer-free patients matched with the cases.
No interventions assigned to this group
StoP Consortium
