After conditioning the analysis in PanScan I, II and III on the two reported pancreatic cancer susceptibility loci at 5p15.33, rs36115365 [24] (tagging the fine-mapped signal for rs401681 [11] in CLPTM1L) and rs2736098 [12] (tagging the signal in TERT), the signal was still near GWAS significant (PUnconditional = 1.80×10−7, OR = 0.64; PConditional = 3.43×10−7, OR = 0.66). Here, TERT is linked to familial pancreatic carcinoma.
