## Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐I), a potent mitogen, is hypothesized to influence breast cancer risk. In 3 previous studies, a polymorphism in the __IGF‐1__ gene (sequence repeat length) was associated with plasma IGF‐I level. We evaluated prospectively the relationships among a (CA)
