HLA associations were observed in unrelated Malay patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). HLA-B18 was observed in 18/45 (40%) Malay NPC patients compared to 22/167 (13%) Malay normals (P = 0.0001; Pc = 0.0027, RR = 4.4). The frequency of HLA-B17, one of the antigens associated with Chinese NPC, was also increased among Malay NPC (13/45 29%) compared to controls (18/167 11%; P = 0.003, Pc = 0.07 RR = 3.4). Similar to the findings among Chinese NPC, the frequency of B17 was higher in early onset (less than or equal to 30 years) Malay NPC resulting in a higher relative risk (RR = 5.0).
在不相关的马来鼻咽癌(NPC)患者中观察到HLA相关性。在45例马来NPC患者中有18例(40%)观察到HLA - B18,而在167例马来正常人中有22例(13%)观察到(P = 0.0001;Pc = 0.0027,RR = 4.4)。与中国NPC相关的抗原之一HLA - B17在马来NPC患者中的频率(45例中有13例,29%)也高于对照组(167例中有18例,11%;P = 0.003,Pc = 0.07,RR = 3.4)。与中国NPC的研究结果相似,早发型(小于或等于30岁)马来NPC中B17的频率更高,导致相对风险更高(RR = 5.0)。
