Pharmacogenetic Analysis in Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation for Rectal Cancer: High Incidence of Somatic Mutations and their Relation with Response

Abstract: The detection of somatic mutations in rectal cancer tumors led us to re-evaluate the utility of the tests performed in blood samples for these polymorphisms in rectal cancer. Furthermore, studies aimed at assessing the influence of pharmacogenetic markers in treatment response performed in blood samples should take into account the particular pattern of hypermutability present in each tumor type. We hypothesize that different patterns of hypermutability present in each tumor type would be related to the differ… Show more

“…We excluded three studies in which the data could not be estimated and whose authors were unreachable (Monzo et al, 2007;McLeod et al, 2010;Lee et al, 2013). Another additional study was excluded because patients were treated without oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy (Moreno et al, 2006) and patients in one study were treated with chemoradiotherapy (Balboa et al, 2010). By contrast, one article consisted of two independent studies, and studies included in this article were treated as separate studies (MartinezBalibrea et al, 2008).…”

“…This is the first study investigating the role of pharmacogenetics in 5-FU toxicity in rectal cancer while two studies have already looked at the influence of these genetic markers on drug response (Terrazzino et al , 2006; Balboa et al , 2010). Terrazzino et al (2006) showed that patients with the MTHFR 667T–1298A haplotype had a lower tumour regression rate compared with other haplotypes.…”

“…If the gene mutation associated with poor DNA-repair ability, which should lead to increased sensitivity to irradiation, and may be increase radiotherapy efficacy, even though could be induced radiotherapy toxicity. Several studies assessed the impact of DNA repair gene polymorphisms on radiotherapy efficacy, especially XRCC-family genes (XRCC1 and XRCC3) and ERCCfamily genes (ERCC1 and ERCC2) polymorphisms (Balboa et al, 2010). Although there are many studies reported that XRCC1, XRCC3, ERCC1 and ERCC2 genes common polymorphisms influence on individual differences of therapeutic efficacy of radiotherapy for rectal cancer, but the results are often not unified (Balboa et al, 2010;Lamas et al, 2012).…”

For example, Lamas et al found X-ray-repair-cross complementing 1 (XRCC1) rs25487 was significantly associated with the response of radiotherapy in rectal cancer while other studies presented not consistent (Balboa et al, 2010;Cecchin et al, 2010;Grimminger et al, 2010;Lamas et al, 2012).…”
