Meta-analysis of multiple genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is effective for detecting single or multi marker associations with complex traits. We develop a flexible procedure ("STAMP") based on mixture models to perform region based meta-analysis of different phenotypes using data from different GWAS and identify subsets of associated phenotypes. Our model framework helps distinguish true associations from between-study heterogeneity. As a measure of association we compute for each phenotype the posterior probability that the genetic region under investigation is truly associated. Extensive simulations show that STAMP is more powerful than standard approaches for meta analyses when the proportion of truly associated outcomes is ≤ 50\%. For other settings, the power of STAMP is similar to that of existing methods. We illustrate our method on two examples, the association of a region on chromosome 9p21 with risk of fourteen cancers, and the associations of expression of quantitative traits loci (eQTLs) from two genetic regions with their cis-SNPs measured in seventeen tissue types using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).
