• Multiethnic Cohort Adiposity Phenotype Study (MEC-APS)

  A total of 1,861 healthy men and postmenopausal women aged 60-77 years with body mass indexes (BMIs) of 17.1-46.2 kg/m2 were enrolled into the study. Stratified sampling was conducted based on sex, race/ethnicity, and six BMI categories (18.5-21.9, 22-24.9, 25-26.9, 27-29.9, 30-34.9, and 35-40 kg/m2) to balance the sample size across the wide range of BMI and optimize adjustment for total adiposity in populations with different BMI distributions. Study participants underwent body composition assessment, in person interview, blood collection, and completed a self-administered questionnaire. A genome-wide association study of obesity phenotypes was conducted among five racial/ethnic groups of the Multiethnic Cohort Study.

• CALGB 80303:Genome-Wide Association Study of Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Patients - A Randomized Phase III trial of Gemcitabine Plus Bevacizumab versus Gemcitabine Plus Placebo in Patients with Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

  CALGB 80303 was a randomized, phase III study in advanced pancreatic cancer patients treated with Gemcitabine plus either Bevacizumab or placebo. No difference in overall survival (OS) was observed between the two arms. We prospectively collected germline DNA and conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS).

• Panel-based next-generation sequencing study of human liver samples.

  Panel-based next-generation sequencing study of 150 human surgical liver samples from Caucasian donors with detailed medical documentation. The overall purpose of the study was to identify expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) in human liver for genes involved in absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs, other xenobiotics, and endogenous substances.

• PCPT and SELECT Cohorts: Core Infrastructure Support for Cancer Research

  SELECT study: SELECT was a phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled 4-arm study of selenium, vitamin E, selenium and vitamin E together, and placebo designed to assess the effect of these supplements on the incidence of prostate cancer. Funded by the National Cancer Institute and conducted by SWOG, the study opened in August 2001 and quickly exceeded its accrual goal of 35,533 men.In the fall of 2008, the trial's Data Safety and Monitoring Committee recommended that participants discontinue taking study supplements due to convincing evidence (planned interim futility analysis) that neither vitamin E nor selenium supplements were associated with the prevention of prostate cancer. A subsequent analysis in 2011 showed a significant 17% increase in prostate cancer incidence in participants who were on the vitamin E only arm. Approximately 17,000 participants from the original trial recently completed an additional four years of centralized follow-up. This follow-up ended on May 31, 2014 and SELECT is now closed. PCPT study: The Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial (PCPT) was a SWOG Cancer Research Network-coordinated study designed to test whether the drug finasteride (Proscar®) would prevent prostate cancer in men ages 55 and older. This study was closed on June 24, 2003 because the study objective had been reached. The results of the study, which did find a preventive benefit for the drug, were published as "The Influence of Finasteride on the Development of Prostate Cancer," in the New England Journal of Medicine on July 17, 2003.
