Eleven high-evidence single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at nine loci for gastric cancer (GC) risk were reported, but their associations with survival remain unknown. In this study, we examined associations between SNP and GC survival by anatomic location and histology among 1147 incident cases from the Shanxi Upper Gastrointestinal Genetics Project. We further examined whether SNPs were expression quantitative trait loci in normal and tumor gastric tissues, and whether tumor versus normal somatic mRNA differences in 126 cases were associated with survival. No SNPs were associated with GC survival overall. However, subtype-specific associations were observed for gastric cardia adenocarcinomas at MUC1/TRIM46/1q22 rs2070803 [HRAA versus GA+GG = 2.16; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.24-3.78; P = 0.0068] and LTA/TNF/6p21.33 rs1799724 (HRTT+CT versus CC = 1.30; 95% CI = 1.07-1.57; P = 0.0077), and for diffuse-type GC at PSCA/8q24.3 rs2294008 (HRTT versus CT+CC = 1.99; 95% CI = 1.33-2.97; P = 7.8E-04). Rs2294008T was a cis-expression quantitative trait loci for PSCA, upregulating mRNA in normal gastric (β = 0.60; P = 5.7E-21) and GC (β = 0.30; P = 0.0089) tissues. Cases in the highest quartile (the smallest downregulation of tumor PSCA) had shortest survival than cases with the most downregulated PSCA (median survival of 0.47 years in the highest quartile versus 3.73 years in the lowest quartile; hazard ratio = 9.70; 95% CI = 2.46-38.4; P = 0.0012). Less striking effects for mRNA levels were observed for MTX1 at 1q22 in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma and for JRK at 8q24.3 in diffuse GC. Our results suggest three high-evidence GC risk loci have prognostic importance in GC subtypes. Future studies in well-characterized independent populations are warranted to validate our findings and further investigate the clinical utility of these variants in predicting GC prognosis.
