Abstract
Background: The most near-term clinical application of genome-wide association studies in lung cancer is a polygenic risk score (PRS).
Methods: A case-control dataset was generated consisting of 4002 lung cancer cases from the LORD project and 20,010 ethnically matched controls from CARTaGENE. A genome-wide PRS including >1.1 million genetic variants was derived and validated in UK Biobank (n = 5419 lung cancer cases). The predictive ability and diagnostic discrimination performance of the PRS was tested in LORD/CARTaGENE and benchmarked against previous PRSs from the literature. Stratified analyses were performed by smoking status and genetic risk groups defined as low (<20th percentile), intermediate (20-80th percentile) and high (>80th percentile) PRS.
Findings: The phenotypic variance explained and the effect size of the genome-wide PRS numerically outperformed previous PRSs. Individuals with high genetic risk had a 2-fold odds of lung cancer compared to low genetic risk. The PRS was an independent predictor of lung cancer beyond conventional clinical risk factors, but its diagnostic discrimination performance was incremental in an integrated risk model. Smoking increased the odds of lung cancer by 7.7-fold in low genetic risk and by 11.3-fold in high genetic risk. Smoking with high genetic risk was associated with a 17-fold increase in the odds of lung cancer compared to individuals who never smoked and with low genetic risk.
Interpretation: Individuals at low genetic risk are not protected against the smoking-related risk of lung cancer. The joint multiplicative effect of PRS and smoking increases the odds of lung cancer by nearly 20-fold.
Funding: This work was supported by the CQDM and the IUCPQ Foundation owing to a generous donation from Mr. Normand Lord.

期刊介绍:
eBioMedicine is a comprehensive biomedical research journal that covers a wide range of studies that are relevant to human health. Our focus is on original research that explores the fundamental factors influencing human health and disease, including the discovery of new therapeutic targets and treatments, the identification of biomarkers and diagnostic tools, and the investigation and modification of disease pathways and mechanisms. We welcome studies from any biomedical discipline that contribute to our understanding of disease and aim to improve human health.
