Active smokers neglect to stop smoking even though various studies proved that smokingincreases the risk of cancer. While, previous studies have assessed the incident risk of cancer but have not performed thevalidity of the measurement. The aim of this study is to know the number of cigarettes that contribute to the incidenceof malignant cancer. Methods: A study with retrospective cohort design has been conducted by using a set of publicdata of Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) in 2007 and 2014. All active smokers (n= 748) who were in good healthcondition in 2007, were traced in 2014 and then being diagnosed with cancer with considering age, gender, healthyeating habit, and regular physical activity. Data has been analysed by using logistic regression by performing AdjustedRisk Ratio (ARR) and the result of validity measurement. Results: The incident of malignant cancer in 2014 were skin,liver, stomach and oral cavity. Smoking 21-30 per day in 2007 were significantly increased risk of having malignantcancer in 2014 at ARR: 6.88; SE:6.13 with the accuracy were 93.8%. The risk and accuracy were higher if smoke >30cigarettes per day (ARR:7.523; SE:7.019; accuracy 95.5%). This study also found that the risk of cancer was significantlyincrease with age (99% CI; ARR: 1.065; SE: 0.026). Conclusions: Cigarette smoking behaviour increased the risk anytypes incident of cancer. Total number >20 cigarettes smoked per day contributes to the incidence of malignant cancer.
