Several chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) susceptibility loci have been reported, however much of the heritable risk remains unidentified. Here we perform a meta-analysis of six genome-wide association studies, imputed using a merged reference panel of 1000 Genomes and UK10K data, totaling 6,200 cases and 17,598 controls after replication. We identify nine risk loci at 1p36.11 (rs34676223, P = 5.04x10-13), 1q42.13 (rs41271473, P = 1.06x10-10), 4q24 (rs71597109, P = 1.37x10-10), 4q35.1 (rs57214277, P = 3.69x10-8), 6p21.31 (rs3800461, P = 1.97x10-8), 11q23.2 (rs61904987, P = 2.64x10-11), 18q21.1 (rs1036935, P = 3.27x10-8), 19p13.3 (rs7254272, P = 4.67x10-8) and 22q13.33 (rs140522, P = 2.70x10-9). These new and established risk loci map to ar...
