abstract = {Recent studies have demonstrated that for various diseases,
incorporating polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for other traits
and diseases into the PRS-based risk prediction model may
improve predictive performance - known as Multiple Polygenic
Score (MPS) approach. We aimed to examine whether the MPS
approach improves colorectal cancer (CRC) risk prediction.
We included 2,187 non-CRC PRSs from the polygenic Score
(PGS) Catalog and used machine learning (ML) models to
select the most predictive non-CRC PRSs, utilizing
individual-level data from 31,257 CRC cases and 33,408
controls. An independent dataset from the Genetic
Epidemiology Research in Adult Health and Aging (GERA)
cohort (4,852 cases and 67,939 controls) was randomly split
into subsets for model estimation and validation. The model
combined MPS with two existing CRC-PRSs based on known loci
and genome-wide genotyping. We then assessed model
performance by calculating the area under the receiver
operating curve (AUC) in the validation set and performed
1,000 bootstrapped iterations to evaluate AUC improvements.
The ML model selected 337 non-CRC PRSs predictive of CRC
risk. Adding MPS to the CRC-PRSs significantly improved AUC
by 0.017 $(95\%$ CI: 0.011-0.022, p < 0.0001) when combined
with known-loci CRC-PRS, 0.005 $(95\%$ CI: 0.002-0.007, p =
0.0005) with genome-wide CRC-PRS, and 0.004 $(95\%$ CI:
0.002-0.006, p = 0.0005) with both the known loci and
genome-wide CRC-PRSs. These findings demonstrate MPS's
potential to refine CRC risk prediction models and highlight
opportunities for further advancements in risk prediction.},
