Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare disease, linked to asbestos exposure in more than 80% of the cases. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been identified as modulators of the tumour microenvironment and carcinogenesis. Polymorphisms of selected MMPs have been studied as potential biomarkers of time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) in MM. The aim of our study was to investigate selected MMP polymorphisms as baseline risk predictors in MM development in combination with other well known risk factors, such as asbestos exposure.

Software program that performs haplotype-based association analysis in unrelated individuals. This program is based on a maximum likelihood model described in Tregouet et al. 2002 and is linked to the stochastic EM (SEM) algorithm. THESIAS allows the simultaneous estimation of haplotype frequencies and of their associated effects on the phenotype of interest. In its current version, both quantitative and qualitative phenotypes can be studied. Covariate-adjusted haplotype effects as well as haplotype x covariate interactions can be investigated.
