Multi-ancestry sequencing analysis in 293,141 participants identifies predisposition DNA repair genes associated with HCC risk.
Rare variants in MSH6 and BRCA2 are significantly associated with increased HCC risk, revealing a previously unconfirmed role for DNA repair genes in HCC susceptibility across ancestrally diverse populations and may inform genetic risk stratification and surveillance strategies.
