Abstract In tumourigenesis, genetic alterations accumulate in the genes responsible for cell growth, proliferation and DNA repair: proto-oncogenes, tumour suppressor and DNA repair genes. Inactivation of tumour suppressor gene function is commonly recognised as a deletion of one of the two alleles; LOH, loss of heterozygosity. In the present study, LOH of several chromosomal regions was studied in both breast and ovarian cancer. LOH for chromosome region 11q was examined in a large breast cancer consortium cohort (N = 988) and in a Finnish ovarian cancer cohort (N = 78), and the clinical significance of these alterations was evaluated. In breast cancer, LOH of the studied markers at 11q23.1, harbouring approximately 2 Mb of DNA, was seen ...
