Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children and the incidence of ALL varies by ethnicity. Although accumulating evidence indicates inherited predisposition to ALL, the genetic basis of ALL susceptibility in diverse ancestry has not been comprehensively examined.

972 European ancestry cases, 1,386 European ancestry controls, 89 African American cases, 1,363 African American controls, 305 Hispanic cases, 1,008 Hispanic controls
