rs2293554 was not included on the panel of CASP8 SNPs analyzed in the BCAC paper [26]; however, using the SNP lookup function on the BCAC website (http://apps.ccge.medschl.cam.ac.uk/consortia/bcac), we found that rs2293554 was not associated with overall, ER+, or ER- breast cancer risk. Here, CASP8 is linked to breast carcinoma.
