Objectives  This meta-analysis examined the relationship between two nonsynonymous polymorphisms (F31I and V57I) of the aurora kinase A ( STK15) gene and breast cancer risk.    Methods  A systematic search of the PubMed® and EMBASE™ databases was undertaken to identify case–control studies that investigated the relationship between STK15 gene polymorphisms and breast cancer risk.    Results  This meta-analysis included seven case–control studies (5966 breast cancer cases; 7609 controls). Combined results, based on all seven studies, showed that breast cancer cases had a significantly higher frequency of the 31 Ile/Ile genotype. In a subgroup analysis by race, breast cancer cases had a significantly higher frequency of the 31 Ile/Ile genotype in Asians and Caucasians. Combined results, based on four studies, suggested that the STK15 V57I gene polymorphism was unlikely to be associated with breast cancer risk in either Asians or Caucasians.    Conclusions  The present meta-analysis suggests that the STK15 F31I polymorphism is a strong predisposing risk factor for breast cancer, but no significant association existed between the STK15 V57I polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer.
