While large GWAS analyses have not found convincing associations between Using a custom LightSNiP assay, we genotyped SNP55 in two large hospital-based cohorts of patients with ovarian (n = 1,332) and endometrial (n = 1,363) cancer and compared genotypes to healthy female controls (n = 1,858). Among individuals harbouring the SNP309TT genotype, the minor SNP55T-allele was associated with a reduced risk of endometrial (dominant model: OR = 0.63; CI = 0.45-0.88;
