rs7837688 is one of 4 tightly linked SNPs in the "locus 1" region of 8q24 chromosomal region, which has been linked in several studies to prostate cancer, initially through rs1447295.[PMID 17925536]

In a study of 1,563 patients of European ancestry, the odds ratio for prostate cancer associated with risk genotypes of locus 1 were reported as 1.70 (CI: 1.39-2.07). Two other regions of chromosome 8q24 were also studied.[PMID 17925536]
