We conducted a genome-wide association study of male breast cancer comprising 823 cases and 2,795 controls of European ancestry, with validation in independent sample sets totaling 438 cases and 474 controls. A SNP in
RAD51B at 14q24.1 was significantly associated with male breast cancer risk (
P = 3.02 × 10
-13; odds ratio (OR) = 1.57). We also refine association at 16q12.1 to a SNP within
TOX3 (
P = 3.87 × 10
-15; OR = 1.50).
