Yes, there is a relationship in that people who are overweight can develop cancer. It's a correlation. People who are not obese develop cancer as well. Perhaps the WOE that stimulated the weight gain is also causing cancer. In this case, weight is simply another recognized association, particularly from the point of view of the metabolic theory of cancer.
