And thanks to the brilliant @CancerGrand team at CRUK for their total support since Mutographs started, as well as wonderful scientific journey with @sangerinstitute and @UCSD colleagues (esp @drsarahmoody), partners in the 11 countries, and all the great team @IARCWHO.
Congrats #CancerGrandChallenges team Mutographs on their paper in @Nature today!
Showing the power of their mutational epidemiology approach, they uncovered mutational signatures underlying global variance in #KidneyCancer incidence rates.

#OpenAccess in Annals of Oncology, investigators report on genome-wide association & Mendelian randomization analyses to identify causes EOCRC. 2 novel risk loci are proposed & evidence is found on the impact of modifiable lifestyle & metabolic targets

Important new study from @IARCWHO which "provides new insights into people’s genetic susceptibility to early-onset bowel cancer, as well as strengthening our knowledge of the modifiable risk factors involved, notably body weight and alcohol intake."

The incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC; diagnosed <50 years of age) is rising globally and the European cancer mortality predictions for the year 2024 published in the March 2024 issue of Annals of Oncology showed unfavorable trends annalsofoncology.org/article…

A new study co-led by Fred Hutch's @PetersRiki provides insights into what's driving #colorectalcancer in people who are often too young to qualify for preventive screening. Alcohol consumption and obesity are two important, but modifiable, risk factors. bit.ly/4c1HD72

Genome-wide association study and Mendelian randomization analyses provide insights into the causes of early-onset colorectal cancer

🔔🚨
Early onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC)
2 recent studies @Annals_Oncology and @JCOOP_ASCO
✅1️⃣Genome-wide association study and Mendelian randomization analyses
➡️6,176 EOCRC cases and 65,829 controls
➡️two novel risk loci for EOCRC at 1p34.1 and 4p15.33
➡️a deleterious coding variant at MUTYH
➡️new EOCRC susceptibility genes: TGFβ, SMAD, BMP, and PI3K signaling, insulin signaling and immune/infection-related pathways
➡️higher levels of body size and metabolic factors (body fat percentage, waist circumference, waist to hip ratio, basal metabolic rate, and fasting insulin), higher alcohol drinking and lower education attainment > increased EOCRC risk
👉annalsofoncology.org/article…
✅2️⃣Demographic differences and outcomes
➡️73,378 patients with EOCRC
➡️incidence and mortality rates higher in rural areas
➡️non-Hispanic Black ethnicity and uninsured patients > worse survival
➡️Married status> better survival

Wow, what an endeavor in EOCRC!
Hot off the press! TL;DR?
🧬 GWAS meta-analysis of > 70,000 CRC cases
🧬 2 new gene loci (1p34.1 and 4p15.33)
Also, EOCRC associated with
