Abstract: <p>Background: Racial and ethnic disparities in incidence and outcomes for childhood B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) are well established. While genome-wide association studies (GWASs) among children of European (EUR) genetic ancestry have identified robust risk loci, comparable studies in children of African (AFR) genetic ancestry do not exist. Here we report on results from the first GWAS of B-ALL exclusive to AFR children.</p>
