What the study found

Who was studied 15,588 European ancestry cases, 105,724 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 0.92 times the odds of High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer (95% confidence interval 0.9-0.95); p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 38% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.21 — in an intron of PVT1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7833298

What is rs7833298?

rs7833298 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PVT1 gene. Published research associates it with high-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7833298 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Ovarian Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs7833298 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 rs7833298 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2024, PMID:38723632. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
