Abstract

We evaluated whether risk of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), particularly adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) related to human T‐lymphotropic virus (HTLV) infection was associated with 63 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 38 candidate genes. The 395 NHL cases registered in Jamaica were matched by age, sex, calendar‐year and HTLV serostatus to 309 controls from the same population. Interleukin 13 (IL13) Ex4+98A>G SNP (rs20541) was associated with decreased NHL risk (OR~AG/AA~ = 0.62,95% CI = 0.44–0.87, p = 0.006), as was vascular cell adhesion molecule‐1, VCAM1 Ex9+149G>A SNP (rs1041163) (OR~CT~ = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.54–1.10, OR~CC~=0.35, 95% CI = 0.16–0.76, p‐trend = 0.007). Both results were stronger in analyses restricted to ATL cases and HTLV‐positive controls, suggesting a role for these genes in ATL etiology (IL13 OR~AG/AA~ = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.36–0.84, p = 0.005; VCAM1 OR~CT~ = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.42–1.01, OR~CC~ = 0.20, 95% CI = 0.08–0.54, p‐trend = 0.001). Confirmation of these results in Caribbean and other populations is needed. © 2009 UICC

## Abstract Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is a CD4^+^CD25^+^ T‐cell malignancy infected with human T‐cell leukemia virus type‐I (HTLV‐I). HTLV‐I infection causes the T‐cell dysfunction, which contributes to the immunodeficient state of the patients. Programmed death‐1 (PD‐1) can negatively r

Adult T-cell leukernidlymphoma (ATL), a malignancy of mature CDCpositive lymphocytes, has been etiologically linked to the human retrovirus HTLV-I. Although a long latent period is suggested from migrant studies, little prospective information on the risk of developing ATL among persons with HTLV-I
