Abstract In the present study, recurrent copy number variations (CNVs) from non-tumor blood cell DNAs of Caucasian non-cancer subjects and glioma, myeloma, and colorectal cancer-patients, and Korean non-cancer subjects and hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer patients, were found to reveal for each of the two ethnic cohorts highly significant differences between cancer patients and controls with respect to the number of CN-losses and size-distribution of CN-gains, suggesting the existence of recurrent constitutional CNV-features useful for prediction of predisposition to cancer.
