What the study found

Who was studied 663 Japanese ancestry cases, 4,367 Japanese ancestry controls; replicated in 2,510 Japanese ancestry cases, 10,791 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.27 times the odds of EGFR mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma (95% confidence interval 1.19-1.35); p = 2 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 71% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q24.2 — in an intron of BPTF.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to EGFR mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to EGFR mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to EGFR mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7216064

What is rs7216064?

rs7216064 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BPTF gene. Published research associates it with egfr mutation-positive 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 rs7216064 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 rs7216064 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 rs7216064 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2016, PMID:27501781. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
