Inherited variation in the ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCB1 and survival after chemotherapy for stage III-IV lung cancer.


ABSTRACT: The ATP-binding cassette transporter gene ABCB1 and the glutathione S-transferase gene GSTP1 code for a multidrug resistance protein and for a detoxifying phase II metabolic enzyme, respectively, with substrate specificities that include chemotherapy drugs often used to treat lung cancer.We genotyped 11 ABCB1 and eight GSTP1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 698 white lung cancer patients (all current or former cigarette smokers) and used log-rank test statistics and proportional hazards regression to evaluate associations between SNP genotype and survival.Using data from all 698 cases, one SNP in ABCB1 (rs2235013) was statistically significantly associated with overall survival (p = 0.038, log-rank test). Chemotherapy and stage jointly (p = 0.025) significantly modified the association between rs2235013 and survival, with statistically significant (p = 0.013, log-rank test) association observed in the subgroup of stage III to IV lung cancer patients who received chemotherapy as part of their first course of treatment (n = 160; 93.1% nonsmall cell). Patients who inherited the minor T allele at ABCB1 rs2235013 experienced better overall survival and recurrence-free survival (hazard ratio, per minor T allele, [95% confidence interval]: 0.66 [0.49-0.90] and 0.55 [0.31-0.95], respectively; adjusted for year of diagnosis, sex, age at diagnosis, cigarette pack years, and stage). In addition, in the advanced stage chemotherapy-treated subgroup, four ABCB1 SNPs (rs6949448, rs2235046, rs1128503, and rs10276036) in mutual high linkage disequilibrium with rs2235013 and an independent ABCB1 SNP (rs1045642) showed statistically significant association (p < 0.05) with survival.Inherited variation in ABCB1 may affect survival specifically in advanced stage lung cancer patients who receive chemotherapy.
