A review of the literature on the relationships between genetic polymorphisms and chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.

ABSTRACT: Despite current advances in antiemetic treatments, between 30% to and 60% of oncology patients experience chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN) and 13% to 33% report chemotherapy-induced vomiting (CIV). Inter-individual differences are observed in the occurrence and severity of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). This review summarizes and critiques studies on associations between occurrence and severity of CINV and polymorphisms in serotonin receptor, drug metabolism, and drug transport pathway genes. Sixteen studies evaluated the associations between the occurrence and/or severity of CINV and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Across these studies, three SNPs in 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor (5-HT3R) genes, two alleles of the cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily D member 6 (CYP2D6) gene, and three SNPs in ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) gene were associated with the occurrence and severity of CINV. Given the limited number of polymorphisms evaluated, additional research is warranted to identify new mechanisms to develop more targeted therapies.

Project description:BackgroundPatients suffering from chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) might have negative adherence of treatment. Acupoint therapies, including acupuncture, acupressure, acupoints injection, massage, and moxibustion, are safe medical procedures with minimal side effects for CINV, but studies about overall safety and effectiveness of acupoint therapies have not been scientifically and methodically evaluated in recent years. Evaluating the overall safety and effectiveness of acupoint therapies in patients with CINV is the purpose of this review.Methods and analysisRelevant randomized controlled trials (RCTSs) are being searched in the following electronic databases: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP database), Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM). We will also attempt to obtain the unpublished academic data by contacting the colleague, professor, or Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The RCTs of the acupoint therapies for CINV patients will be searched in the databases from inception to July 2019. The primary outcomes are defined as severity, duration and frequency of nausea or vomiting, or both. The secondary outcomes are defined as any adverse events and quality of life. Performing the meta-analysis by using RevMan version 5 software. Mean difference (MD) or standardized mean difference (SMD) will express the continuous variables, while relative risk (RR) will express the categorical variables.ResultsThe results of this review will provide a high-quality synthesis to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupoint therapies for CINV.ConclusionThis review will provide evidence to estimate whether acupoint therapies are effective interventions for CINV.DisseminationEvidence whether acupoint therapies are effective interventions for CINV will be provided by this systematic review. This knowledge will recommend better acupoint therapies and selections of acupoints which might be helpful in treating CINV. The findings of this systematic review will be disseminated via various forms of presentation and publication of the data in a journal or electronic databases.Prospero registration numberCRD42019125538.
