Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of glioma susceptibility, but individual studies have had limited power to identify risk loci. We performed a meta-analysis of existing GWAS and two new GWAS, which totaled 12,496 cases and 18,190 controls. We identified five new loci for glioblastoma (GBM) at 1p31.3 (rs12752552; P = 2.04 × 10<sup>-9</sup>, odds ratio (OR) = 1.22), 11q14.1 (rs11233250; P = 9.95 × 10<sup>-10</sup>, OR = 1.24), 16p13.3 (rs2562152; P = 1.93 × ...[more]
