Abstract Background Addressing critical gaps in precision medicine initiatives colorectal cancer (CRC) requires building larger collaborative studies. Methods The Latino Colorectal Cancer Consortium (LC3) is a resource that harmonizes data collected observational studies with from individuals who identify as Hispanic/Latino diagnosis of primary adenocarcinoma. Data includes demographics, medical history, family and lifestyle risk factors patient-completed surveys. Vital status, cause death,...
Abstract Ancestrally diverse and admixed populations, including the Hispanic/Latino/a/x/e community, are underrepresented in cancer genetic/genomic studies. Leveraging Latino Colorectal Cancer Consortium (LC3) other existing datasets, we analyzed whole exome sequencing data on tumor/normal pairs from 718 individuals with colorectal to map somatic mutational features by ethnicity genetic similarity. Global proportions of African, Asian, European, Native American ancestries were estimated...
