Genomic Profiling Associated with Recurrence in Patients with Rectal Cancer Treated with Chemoradiation

Abstract: Genomic profiling may help to identify patients who are at high risk for developing tumor recurrence, and those who are more likely to benefit from chemoradiation therapy. A larger prospective study is needed to validate these preliminary data using germline polymorphisms on tumor recurrences in rectal cancer patients treated with chemoradiation.

“…Li et al (2006) analyzed pancreatic cancer treated with radiotherapy and did not find any association between this polymorphism and survival. Likewise, Gordon et al (2006) studied rectal cancer and did not report an association of this polymorphism with disease relapse, lymph node status or chemotherapy response, which concurs with our results. We found that the C allele is associated with worse prognosis, but this is not related to radiotherapy.…”

“…Our previous data and others have shown that the IL-8/CXCR2 pathway plays a key role in mediating colorectal cancer development (11,14,15,32). In follow-up to our previously published data in colorectal cancer, this study focused on the impact of inhibition of CXCR2 on the proliferation, survival, invasion, and migration in colorectal cancer in vitro and in vivo models.…”

“…Although the detail mechanisms for individual difference in radiotherapy remained unknown, genetic polymorphisms were demonstrated to be one of the major factors influencing the radiotherapy, especially the genetic polymorphisms of DNA repair genes (Gordon et al, 2006;Terrazzino et al, 2006). DNA damage response plays a significant role in the biological effects of radiotherapy.…”
