Abstract
Background: The 10-year survival rate for breast cancer is now approaching 80%. Research has shown that breast cancer survivors increasingly regard long-term quality of life (QoL) as an important treatment outcome. Prior studies suggest that QoL following cancer treatment is in part heritable. Therefore, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed to elucidate common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with QoL following radiotherapy for breast cancer.
