We identified eight new risk loci associated with either Barrett's oesophagus or oesophageal adenocarcinoma, within or near the genes CFTR (rs17451754; p=4·8 × 10−10), MSRA (rs17749155; p=5·2 × 10−10), LINC00208 and BLK (rs10108511; p=2·1 × 10−9), KHDRBS2 (rs62423175; p=3·0 × 10−9), TPPP and CEP72 (rs9918259; p=3·2 × 10−9), TMOD1 (rs7852462; p=1·5 × 10−8), SATB2 (rs139606545; p=2·0 × 10−8), and HTR3C and ABCC5 (rs9823696; p=1·6 × 10−8). The gene discussed is LINC00208; the disease is Barrett esophagus.
