Genome-wide association studies have confirmed association of TP63C/T rs710521, TERTC/T rs2736098, and SLC14A1C/T rs17674580 gene variants with susceptibility to bladder cancer (BC) in European and White population.
Overall, seven of the 14 variants were significantly associated with bladder cancer risk (p = 9.763 × 10(-3) for rs9642880 at 8q24.21, p = 3.004 × 10(-3) for rs2294008 at 8q24.3, p = 0.012 for rs798766 at 4p16.3, p = 0.034 for rs1495741 at 8p22, p = 2.306 × 10(-4) for GSTM1, p = 8.507 × 10(-8) for rs17674580 at 18q12.3, p = 7.179 × 10(-4) for rs10936599 at 3q26.2) and the odds ratios (ORs) ranged from 1.13 to 1.65.
