BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Whole genome sequencing has identified recurrent non-coding mutations that may be important in carcinogenesis. We investigate the frequency of 5 such non-coding mutation hotspots in urothelial bladder cancers (UBCs) and assess their potential for UBC detection and prognostication. METHODS: DNA extracted from 302 UBCs was subjected to targeted next generation sequencing of non-coding mutation hotspots in GPR126, PLEKHS1, TBC1D12, LEPROTL1 and WDR74. The frequency of mutations, and associations with stage, grade, age, gender, smoking status, clinical outcomes, mutation signatures and gene expression were analysed using chi(2) tests, logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: Non-coding mutations were common across all stages and grades of UBC. The frequencies were: GPR126 53.0%, PLEKHS1 38.7%, TBC1D12 25.5%, LEPROTL1 23.8% and WDR74 17.2%. There was an average of 1.6 mutations per UBC, and 74% of UBCs harboured at least one mutation. They frequently co-occur, and commonly accompany an APOBEC mutational signature. The mutations are not strongly associated with clinical parameters and are, most likely, early events in the development of UBC. CONCLUSIONS: Mutations at these 5 non-coding hotspots are common in UBC. Due to their high frequency across stages and grades of disease, they should be included in UBC diagnostic biomarker panels.
