    Résumé

    Bladder cancer (BC) is the 6th most common cancer worldwide, with tobacco smoking considered as its main risk factor. Accumulating evidence has found associations between genetic variants and the risk of BC. Candidate gene-environment interaction studies have suggested interactions between cigarette smoking and NAT2/GSTM1 gene variants. Our objective was to perform a genome-wide association case-only study using the French national prospective COBLAnCE cohort (COhort to study BLAdder CancEr), focusing on smoking behavior. The COBLAnCE cohort comprises 1800 BC patients enrolled between 2012 and 2018. Peripheral blood samples collected at enrolment were genotyped using the Illumina Global Screening Array with a Multi-Disease drop-in panel. Genotyping data (9,719,614 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)) of 1674, 1283, and 1342 patients were analyzed for smoking status, average tobacco consumption, and age at smoking initiation, respectively. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted adjusting for gender, age, and genetic principal components. The results suggest new candidate loci (4q22.1, 12p13.1, 16p13.3) interacting with smoking behavior for the risk of BC. Our results need to be validated in other case-control or cohort studies.
