  1. Table lists the genes positively correlated in expression (p < 0.001 and FDR < 4%, corrected for copy number and cancer type) with occurrence of upstream SV breakpoint, with the gene being previously associated with cancer. Previous cancer association based on membership in the Sanger Cancer Consensus Gene list (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/data/cancer-gene-census). Number of cancer cases with SV in given region (n) is from the set of 1220 cases with both expression and SV data. t-statistic (t) based on linear regression model incorporating both cancer type and copy number in addition to SV event; a t-statistic of 3.3 or more approximates to p < 0.001 or FDR < 4%. Genes with p < 0.001 for 0–20 kb upstream, 20–50 kb upstream, or 50–100 kb upstream regions are included here. “NA”, not assessed (less than three cases involved). See also Supplementary Data 2
