Who was studied 11,273 European ancestry cases, 55,483 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele carried 1.15 times the odds of Lung adenocarcinoma (95% confidence interval 1.108727515-1.187467979); p = 4 × 10−15.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q25.1 — in an intron of ADAMTS7.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lung adenocarcinoma compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lung adenocarcinoma.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lung adenocarcinoma — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2004038
What is rs2004038?
rs2004038 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADAMTS7 gene. Published research associates it with lung adenocarcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs2004038 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to EGFR Mutation-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs2004038 mean I will get this?
No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.
Where does the information about rs2004038 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2017, PMID:28604730. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
