Identification of genetic variants contributing to cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity by use of a genomewide approach.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin, a platinating agent commonly used to treat several cancers, is associated with nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and ototoxicity, which has hindered its utility. To gain a better understanding of the genetic variants associated with cisplatin-induced toxicity, we present a stepwise approach integrating genotypes, gene expression, and sensitivity of HapMap cell lines to cisplatin. Cell lines derived from 30 trios of European descent (CEU) and 30 trios of African descent (YRI) were used to develop a preclinical model to identify genetic variants and gene expression that contribute to cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in two different populations. Cytotoxicity was determined as cell-growth inhibition at increasing concentrations of cisplatin for 48 h. Gene expression in 176 HapMap cell lines (87 CEU and 89 YRI) was determined using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST Array. We identified six, two, and nine representative SNPs that contribute to cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity through their effects on 8, 2, and 16 gene expressions in the combined, Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH), and Yoruban populations, respectively. These genetic variants contribute to 27%, 29%, and 45% of the overall variation in cell sensitivity to cisplatin in the combined, CEPH, and Yoruban populations, respectively. Our whole-genome approach can be used to elucidate the expression of quantitative trait loci contributing to a wide range of cellular phenotypes.

Project description:This study aims to evaluate genetic risk factors for cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity by investigating not previously studied genetic risk variants and further examining previously reported genetic associations. A genome-wide study (GWAS) was conducted in genetically estimated Europeans in a discovery cohort of cisplatin-treated adults from Toronto, Canada, followed by a candidate gene approach in a validation cohort from the Netherlands. In addition, previously reported genetic associations were further examined in both the discovery and validation cohorts. The outcome, nephrotoxicity, was assessed in two ways: (i) decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula (CKD-EPI) and (ii) increased serum creatinine according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.03 for acute kidney injury (AKI-CTCAE). Four different Illumina arrays were used for genotyping. Standard quality control was applied for pre- and post-genotype imputation data. In the discovery cohort (n = 608), five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reached genome-wide significance. The A allele in rs4388268 (minor allele frequency = 0.23), an intronic variant of the BACH2 gene, was consistently associated with increased risk of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in both definitions, meeting genome-wide significance (β = -8.4, 95% CI -11.4--5.4, p = 3.9 × 10-8) for decreased eGFR and reaching suggestive association (OR = 3.9, 95% CI 2.3-6.7, p = 7.4 × 10-7) by AKI-CTCAE. In the validation cohort of 149 patients, this variant was identified with the same direction of effect (eGFR: β = -1.5, 95% CI -5.3-2.4, AKI-CTCAE: OR = 1.7, 95% CI 0.8-3.5). Findings of our previously published candidate gene study could not be confirmed after correction for multiple testing. Genetic predisposition of BACH2 (rs4388268) might be important in the development of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, indicating opportunities for mechanistic understanding, tailored therapy and preventive strategies.
