Cancer diagnoses were reported on biennial surveys and verified through medical record abstraction or linkage with state cancer registries.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>This cohort included 26\u202f894 participants who received a diagnosis of a first nonmetastatic primary cancer (mean [SD] age at first cancer diagnosis, 72.2 [6.5] years; 15\u202f920 male [59.2%]). At the time of first diagnosis, 11\u202f497 participants (42.8%) had overweight and 4684 (17.2%) had obesity. During a median (IQR) follow-up time of 7.9 (3.4-13.6) years, 3749 (13.9%) participants received a diagnosis of a second primary cancer, of which 1243 (33.2%) were obesity-related second primary cancers. Compared with cancer survivors whose BMI was in the normal range (18.5 to &amp;lt;25), there was 15% increased risk of any second primary cancer for those who had overweight (25 to &amp;lt;30; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.15; 95% CI, 1.07-1.25) and a 34% increased risk for those who had obesity (BMI \u226530; aHR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.21-1.48), with greater risk for obesity-related second primary cancers, including a 40% increased risk for those with overweight (aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.22,-1.61) and a 78% increased risk for those with obesity (aHR, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.51-2.11).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>In this cohort study of older survivors of nonmetastatic cancer, those who had overweight or obesity at the time of their first cancer diagnosis were at higher risk of developing a second cancer, especially an obesity-related second cancer. Given the high prevalence of overweight and obesity among cancer survivors, it is important to promote survivorship care guidelines recommending weight management and increase awareness of second cancers among physicians and cancer survivors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1001\/jamanetworkopen.2024.33132","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,17]],"date-time":"2024-09-17T16:30:29Z","timestamp":1726590629000},"page":"e2433132","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Excess
