Polygenic risk scores (PRS) provide a personalized genetic susceptibility profile that may be leveraged for disease prediction. Using data from the UK Biobank (413,753 individuals; 22,755 incident cancer cases), we quantify the added predictive value of integrating cancer-specific PRS with family history and modifiable risk factors for 16 cancers. We show that incorporating PRS measurably improves prediction accuracy for most cancers, but the magnitude of this improvement varies substantially. We also demonstrate that stratifying on levels of PRS identifies significantly divergent 5-year risk trajectories after accounting for family history and modifiable risk factors. At the population level, the top 20% of the PRS distribution accounts for 4.0% to 30.3% of incident cancer cases, exceeding the impact of many lifestyle-related factors. In summary, this study illustrates the potential for improving cancer risk assessment by integrating genetic risk scores. Predicting cancer risk requires large datasets and sophisticated models. Here the authors integrate polygenic risk scores and modifiable risk factors for multiple cancers in the UK Biobank, improving general risk prediction and distinguishing cases where genetic or lifestyle factors have stronger associations.","datePublished":"2020-11-27T00:00:00Z","dateModified":"2020-11-27T00:00:00Z","pageStart":"1","pageEnd":"11","license":"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/","sameAs":"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19600-4","keywords":["Cancer epidemiology","Cancer genetics","Science","Humanities and Social Sciences","multidisciplinary"],"image":["https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig1_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig2_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig3_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig4_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig5_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-19600-4/MediaObjects/41467_2020_19600_Fig6_HTML.png"],"isPartOf":{"name":"Nature Communications","issn":["2041-1723"],"volumeNumber":"11","@type":["Periodical","PublicationVolume"]},"publisher":{"name":"Nature Publishing Group UK","logo":{"url":"https://www.springernature.com/app-sn/public/images/logo-springernature.png","@type":"ImageObject"},"@type":"Organization"},"author":[{"name":"Linda Kachuri","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, San Francisco","address":{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, USA","@type":"PostalAddress"},"@type":"Organization"}],"@type":"Person"},{"name":"Rebecca E.

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) provide a personalized genetic susceptibility profile that may be leveraged for disease prediction. Using data from the UK Biobank (413,753 individuals; 22,755 incident cancer cases), we quantify the added predictive value of integrating cancer-specific PRS with family history and modifiable risk factors for 16 cancers. We show that incorporating PRS measurably improves prediction accuracy for most cancers, but the magnitude of this improvement varies substantially. We also demonstrate that stratifying on levels of PRS identifies significantly divergent 5-year risk trajectories after accounting for family history and modifiable risk factors. At the population level, the top 20% of the PRS distribution accounts for 4.0% to 30.3% of incident cancer cases, exceeding the impact of many lifestyle-related factors. In summary, this study illustrates the potential for improving cancer risk assessment by integrating genetic risk scores.</p></div></div></section> <noscript> </noscript> <section aria-labelledby="inline-recommendations" data-title="Inline Recommendations" class="c-article-recommendations" data-track-component="inline-recommendations"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-title" id="inline-recommendations">Similar content being viewed by others</h3> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41568-023-00599-x/MediaObjects/41568_2023_599_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41568-023-00599-x?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_1" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 1" data-track-label="10.1038/s41568-023-00599-x">Polygenic scores in cancer </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">21 July 2023</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-020-16483-3/MediaObjects/41467_2020_16483_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-16483-3?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_2" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 2" data-track-label="10.1038/s41467-020-16483-3">Assessment of polygenic architecture and risk prediction based on common variants across fourteen cancers </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__access-type">Open access</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">03 July 2020</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-021-21288-z/MediaObjects/41467_2021_21288_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-21288-z?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_3" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 3" data-track-label="10.1038/s41467-021-21288-z">Cross-cancer evaluation of polygenic risk scores for 16 cancer types in two large cohorts </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__access-type">Open access</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">12 February 2021</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; window.dataLayer.push({ recommendations: { recommender: 'semantic', model: 'specter', policy_id: 'NA', timestamp: 1732659969, embedded_user: 'null' } }); </script> <div class="main-content"> <section data-title="Introduction"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec1-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec1">Introduction</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec1-content"><p>Cancer susceptibility is inherently complex, but it is well accepted that heritable genetic factors and modifiable exposures contribute to cancer development. While our knowledge of causal modifiable risk factors has gradually evolved over the past decades, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have rapidly produced a wealth of germline genetic risk variants for different cancers. These studies have shed light on genetic mechanisms of cancer susceptibility; however, the public health impact of GWAS findings has been modest. In response, GWAS results have been leveraged to create polygenic risk scores (PRS) by combining weighted genotypes for risk alleles into a single, integrated measure of an individual’s genetic predisposition to a specific phenotypic profile. Such genetic risk scores are not designed to reflect the complexity of molecular susceptibility mechanisms, but they are highly amenable to phenotypic prediction.</p><p>Multiple studies have demonstrated that PRS can generate informative predictions for heritable traits<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1" title="Khera, A.

In addition to evaluating PRS predictive performance, these data also provide a unique opportunity to answer etiological questions about the relative contribution of genetic and modifiable risk factors to cancer susceptibility.</p><p>In this study we assemble PRS for 16 cancer types, based on previously published GWAS, and apply them to an external population of 413,870 UK Biobank (UKB) participants, with the aim of quantifying the potential for low-penetrance susceptibility variants to improve cancer risk assessment at the population level. First, we evaluate the degree to which PRS can improve risk prediction and stratification based on established cancer risk factors, such as family history and modifiable health-related characteristics. Next, we estimate the proportion of incident cancer cases that can be attributed to high genetic susceptibility, captured by the PRS, and compare this to modifiable determinants of cancer. Taken together, our results show that genetic risk factors represented by the PRS account for a substantial proportion of the overall cancer incidence and that for most cancers, incorporating this genetic information improves risk prediction based on conventional risk factors alone.</p></div></div></section><section data-title="Results"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec2-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec2">Results</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec2-content"><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec3">Associations with known risk factors</h3><p>Characteristics of the UKB study population are presented in Supplementary Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="supplementary material anchor" href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#MOESM1">1</a>.

Proportionality violations (<i>P</i> < 0.05) were detected for age in the breast cancer model and PRS<sub>IV</sub> for cervical cancer. For breast cancer this was resolved by incorporating an interaction term with follow-up time. As a sensitivity analysis for cervical cancer we modeled a time-varying PRS effect (Supplementary Fig. <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="supplementary material anchor" href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#MOESM1">2</a>).</p><p>The <i>C</i>-index reached 0.60 with age and/or sex, for all cancers except for breast and thyroid (Supplementary Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="supplementary material anchor" href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#MOESM1">5</a>). For cancers with available information on a family history of cancer at the same site (prostate, breast, colon/rectum, and lung), incorporating this had a modest impact on the <i>C</i>-index (Δ<i>C</i> < 0.01). In fact, replacing family history with the PRS resulted in an improvement in discrimination for prostate (<i>C</i> = 0.763, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.047), breast (<i>C</i> = 0.620, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.061), and colorectal (<i>C</i> = 0.708, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.029), but not lung (<i>C</i> = 0.711, Δ<i>C</i> = −0.002) cancers.</p><p>Next, we assessed the change in the <i>C</i>-index (Δ<i>C</i>) after incorporating the PRS into prediction models with all available risk factors for each cancer (Fig. <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="figure anchor" href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#Fig2">2</a> and Supplementary Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="supplementary material anchor" href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#MOESM1">5</a>). The resulting improvement in prediction performance was variable. The largest increases in the <i>C</i>-index were observed for cancer sites with few available predictors, such as testes (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.766, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.138), thyroid (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.692, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.099), prostate (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.768, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.051), and lymphocytic leukemia (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.756, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.061). Incorporating the PRS also improved prediction accuracy for melanoma (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.664, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.042), breast (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.635, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.063), and colorectal (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.716, Δ<i>C</i> = 0.030) cancers, which have multiple environmental risk factors. The highest overall <i>C</i>-index was observed for lung (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.849) and bladder (<i>C</i><sub>PRS</sub> = 0.814) cancers, which was primarily attributed to non-genetic predictors (<i>C</i> without PRS: lung = 0.846; bladder = 0.808). However, it is worthwhile noting that despite having a large Δ<i>C</i>, the precision of the <i>C</i>-index estimates was low for some rarer cancers, such as testicular (<i>n</i> = 52) and thyroid (<i>n</i> = 191), as well as cancers with genetic risk scores based on relatively few variants.

We show that incorporating PRS improves risk stratification provided by conventional risk factors alone, as illustrated by significantly diverging 5-year risk projections within strata based on family history or modifiable risk factors. For certain cancers, including some with strong environmental risk factors, such as melanoma, breast, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers, PRS was the primary determinant of risk stratification. For others, such as lung and bladder cancers, modifiable risk factors had a stronger impact on 5-year risk trajectories. A consistent finding for all cancers was that individuals in the top 20% of the PRS distribution with an unfavorable modifiable risk factor profile had the highest level of risk, with evidence that the effects of PRS and modifiable risk factors may be synergistic.

Taken together, our results suggest that PRS can provide more accurate risk estimates for individuals with wide variation in cancer predisposition based on lifestyle-related risk factors.

Despite providing useful data, these studies overlook the contribution of genetic susceptibility. Our work addresses these limitations by providing a more complete perspective on the determinants of cancer and potential impact of future prevention policies.</p><p>In evaluating the contributions of our study, several limitations should be acknowledged. First, we did not account for the impact of workplace exposures and socio-economic determinants of health, thereby underestimating the role of non-genetic risk factors. We also lacked data on several known carcinogens, such as ionizing radiation, and clinical biomarkers, such as prostate-specific antigen, thus limiting the extent to which our results inform risk classification for certain cancers. Information on family history was also not available for all cancer types. Second, since the UK Biobank cohort is unrepresentative of the general UK population due to low participation and resulting healthy volunteer bias<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 33" title="Fry, A. et al. Comparison of sociodemographic and health-related characteristics of UK Biobank participants with those of the general population. Am. J. Epidemiol. 186, 1026–1034 (2017)." href="/articles/s41467-020-19600-4#ref-CR33" id="ref-link-section-d47410060e1632">33</a></sup>, we may have underestimated PAFs for modifiable risk factors. Finally, the models presented here are calibrated to the UKB population and we urge caution in extrapolating prediction performance and absolute risk projections to other populations. Since our analytic sample is restricted to individuals of predominantly European ancestry, this limits the applicability of our findings to diverse populations.</p><p>This work has several important strengths. Our study provides a comprehensive description of the joint and relative influence of genetic and modifiable risk factors in a population-based cohort with uniform phenotyping and extensive data on a range of relevant cancer risk factors. We established risk models based on the current knowledge of genetic and modifiable risk factors and report a series of metrics that comprehensively characterize different dimensions of PRS predictive performance in an independent population. With the exception of limited overlap with one colorectal cancer GWAS (see “Methods”), all of our risk models were developed based on previously published associations from studies that did not include the UK Biobank. While our results are promising, we anticipate that the PRS performance reported here may be enhanced by adopting less stringent <i>P</i> value thresholding, optimizing subtype-specific weights, and implementing more sophisticated PRS models that incorporate linkage disequilibrium structure, functional annotations, or single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) interactions. Some of these strategies are already being successfully implemented<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 4" title="Khera, A. V. et al. Genome-wide polygenic scores for common diseases identify individuals with risk equivalent to monogenic mutations. Nat.

We also provide insight into PRS modeling by showing that accounting for the variance in risk allele effect sizes improves PRS performance. This approach may be particularly advantageous for PRS derived from multiple sources rather than a single GWAS. Throughout this study we consider a relatively lenient definition of high genetic risk, corresponding to the top 20% of the PRS distribution. Exploring other cut-points will be informative; however, our results are valuable for demonstrating that the utility of PRS for stratification is not limited to the most extreme ends of the genetic susceptibility spectrum. This threshold is also compelling from a population-health perspective, as it allows us to quantify the proportion of cases attributed to a risk factor with a 20% prevalence.</p><p>Genetic risk scores have the potential to become a powerful tool for precision health, but only if the resulting information can be understood and acted on appropriately. One important consideration is the accuracy and stability of PRS-based risk classifications, especially at clinically actionable risk thresholds that exist for certain cancers. For instance, there are established screening programs for breast and colorectal cancers, and increasing evidence supporting the effectiveness of low-dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 34" title="National Lung Screening Trial Research Team et al.

For these cancers PRS could be used to adjust the optimal age for screening initiation and/or intensity. However, to justify this, studies are needed to demonstrate the benefit of using PRS to supplement conventional screening criteria. Such trials are already underway for breast cancer, where genetic risk scores are being incorporated to personalize risk-based screening<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 36" title="Shieh, Y. et al.

For other cancers, such as prostate, screening remains controversial and PRS may prove useful in identifying a subset of high-risk individuals who may benefit the most from screening.</p><p>Another area where PRS may prove useful is for prioritizing individuals for targeted health and lifestyle-related interventions. In support of this, our study demonstrates that those with the highest levels of genetic risk, based on the PRS, may also experience larger decreases in risk from shifting to a healthier lifestyle. However, there is also accumulating evidence that simply reporting genetic risk information to individuals does not induce behavior change that could lead to meaningful reductions in risk<sup><a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 37" title="Hollands, G.

Therefore, progress in our ability to construct and apply PRS to identify high-risk individuals must be also accompanied by the development of effective behavioral interventions that can be implemented in response to high disease risk, in addition to early detection and screening protocols.</p><p>Ultimately, the impact of PRS on clinical decision-making should be carefully evaluated in randomized trials prior to deployment in healthcare settings. By demonstrating cancer-specific improvements in risk prediction, as well as the substantial proportion of cancer incidence that is captured by known genetic susceptibility variants, we provide evidence that contextualizes the potential for using genetic information to improve cancer outcomes.</p></div></div></section><section data-title="Methods"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec8-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec8">Methods</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec8-content"><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec9">Study population</h3><p>The UK Biobank (UKB) is a population-based prospective cohort of individuals aged 40–69 years, enrolled between 2006 and 2010.

Briefly, for cause-specific Cox regression models the absolute risk accumulates over time as the product between the event-free survival and the hazard of experiencing the event of interest, both conditional to the baseline covariates.
