[1] A SNP in this gene may reduce the risk of Breast cancer.

rs1045485(C,C) individuals, in this case of European descent, have been reported to be at 40% lower risk of developing breast cancer compared to rs1045485(G,G) individuals [PMID 15601643, PMID 17018785, PMID 17293864]

Another SNP in CASP8, rs17468277, may also affect risk of breast cancer. [PMID 17293864]
