They found that the A/A genotype in rs11615 of ERCC1 was associated with higher risk of death from gastric cancer, and there was no association between ERCC1 rs3212986 polymorphism and prognosis of gastric cancer.34 Another study found that A/A genotype in rs11615 of ERCC1 were associated with longer survival time in gastric cancer patients.35 Chen et al indicates the patients carrying A/A + G/A genotypes in rs11615 of ERCC1 are at higher risk of endometrial carcinoma than those with G/G genotype. Here, ERCC1 is linked to gastric cancer.
