Common variants in ABCB1, ABCC2 and ABCG2 genes and clinical outcomes among women with advanced stage ovarian cancer treated with platinum and taxane-based chemotherapy: a Gynecologic Oncology Group study.

ABSTRACT: Efflux transporters of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family are major determinants of chemoresistance in tumor cells. This study examined associations between functional variants in ABCB1, ABCC2 and ABCG2 genes and clinical outcomes in patients with epithelial ovarian/primary peritoneal cancer (EOC/PPC) following platinum and taxane-based chemotherapy.Sequenom iPLEXTMGOLD Assay and MALDI-TOF platform were used to genotype the non-synonymous G2677T/A (rs2032582; encoding Ala893Ser/Thr) and synonymous C3435T (rs1045642; encoding Ile1145Ile) variants in ABCB1, the non-synonymous G1249A variant in ABCC2 (rs2273697; encoding Val417Ile), and the non-synonymous C421A variant in ABCG2 (rs2231142; encoding Q141K, Gln141Lys) in normal DNA from up to 511 women in Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) phase III trials, GOG-172 or GOG-182. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed in relation to genetic polymorphisms using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards model.The C421A variant (CA+AA versus CC) in ABCG2 was associated with a 6-month longer median PFS (22.7 versus 16.8 months, p=0.041). In multivariate analysis, patients with variant genotypes were at a reduced risk of disease progression (hazard ratio [HR]=0.75, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.59-0.96, p=0.022). The association between C421A and OS was not statistically significant (HR=0.88, 95% CI=0.67-1.15, p=0.356). None of the other variants measured in either ABCB1 or ABCC2 was associated with PFS or OS.The C421A variant in ABCG2, previously shown to be associated with enhanced protein degradation and drug sensitivity, was associated with longer PFS in advanced stage EOC/PPC patents treated with platinum+taxane-based chemotherapy. This finding requires further validation.

Project description:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have radically changed the outcome of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients in the last 20 years. Moreover, the advent of second generation TKIs, namely nilotinib and dasatinib, have largely increased the number of CML patients achieving deep and sustained molecular responses. However, the possible mechanisms capable of influencing the maintenance of the long-term molecular response are not yet fully known and understood. In this light, polymorphisms in MDR-ABC transporters may influence the efficacy and safety of TKIs. In this study, we examined seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in four ABC transporter genes: ABCC1 rs212090 (5463T>A), ABCC2 rs3740066 (3972C>T), ABCC2 rs4148386 G>A, ABCC2 rs1885301 (1549G>A), ABCG2 rs2231137 (34G>A), ABCG2 rs2231142 G>C, ABCB1 rs1045642 (3435C>T), to determine their effect on the achievement and/or loss of molecular response in 90 CML patients treated with nilotinib. We found that ABCC2 rs3740066 CC and CT as well as the ABCB1 rs1045642 TT genotypes correlated with a higher probability to achieve MR3 in a shorter time (p=0.02, p=0.004, and p=0.01), whereas ABCG2 rs2231137 GG was associated with lower probability of MR3 achievement (p=0.005). Moreover, ABCC2 rs3740066 CC genotype, the ABCB1 rs1045642 CC and TT genotypes were positively correlated with MR4 achievement (p=0.02, p=0.007, and p=0.003). We then generated a predictive model incorporating the information of four genotypes, to evaluate the combined effect of the SNPs. The combination of SNPs present in the model affected the probability and the time to molecular response. This model had a high prognostic significance for both MR3 and MR4 (p=0.005 and p=0.008, respectively). Finally, we found ABCG2 rs2231142 GG genotype to be associated with a decrease risk of MR3 loss. In conclusion, MDR-transporters SNPs may significantly affect the achievement and loss of molecular response in CML patients treated with nilotinib.

Project description:To evaluate ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in colonic pathophysiology as they had recently been related to colorectal cancer (CRC) development.Literature search was conducted on PubMed using combinations of the following terms: ABC transporters, ATP binding cassette transporter proteins, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative, colitis, Crohn's disease, colorectal cancer, colitis, intestinal inflammation, intestinal carcinogenesis, ABCB1/P-glycoprotein (P-gp/CD243/MDR1), ABCC2/multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2) and ABCG2/breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), Abcb1/Mdr1a, abcc2/Mrp2, abcg2/Bcrp, knock-out mice, tight junction, membrane lipid function.Recently, human studies reported that changes in the levels of ABC transporters were early events in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence leading to CRC. A link between ABCB1, high fat diet and gut microbes in relation to colitis was suggested by the animal studies. The finding that colitis was preceded by altered gut bacterial composition suggests that deletion of Abcb1 leads to fundamental changes of host-microbiota interaction. Also, high fat diet increases the frequency and severity of colitis in specific pathogen-free Abcb1 KO mice. The Abcb1 KO mice might thus serve as a model in which diet/environmental factors and microbes may be controlled and investigated in relation to intestinal inflammation. Potential molecular mechanisms include defective transport of inflammatory mediators and/or phospholipid translocation from one side to the other of the cell membrane lipid bilayer by ABC transporters affecting inflammatory response and/or function of tight junctions, phagocytosis and vesicle trafficking. Also, diet and microbes give rise to molecules which are potential substrates for the ABC transporters and which may additionally affect ABC transporter function through nuclear receptors and transcriptional regulation. Another critical role of ABCB1 was suggested by the finding that ABCB1 expression identifies a subpopulation of pro-inflammatory Th17 cells which were resistant to treatment with glucocorticoids. The evidence for the involvement of ABCC2 and ABCG2 in colonic pathophysiology was weak.ABCB1, diet, and gut microbes mutually interact in colonic inflammation, a well-known risk factor for CRC. Further insight may be translated into preventive and treatment strategies.
