A single-nucleotide polymorphism of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor gene can predict pathological complete response to taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background:Germline genetic polymorphisms in certain genes are associated with the response to anthracycline- and taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer (BC). This translational study aims to evaluate the potential role of rs1042713 in the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) gene in predicting pathological complete responses (pCRs) to taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). Materials and methods:The distribution frequencies of rs1042713 were genotyped in LABC patients who received taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Associations between tumor-relevant biomarkers, genotypes and pCRs were evaluated using Student's t-test for continuous variables and Chi-square or Fisher's exact test for categorical variables. For univariate analysis, the relationship between the rs1042713 polymorphism and pCR was analyzed by Chi-square or Fisher's exact test. The modified ORs with their 95% CIs were calculated by a multivariate logistic regression analysis to explore the association between genotype and pCR. Results:There was a significant correlation of the rs1042713 genotype with estrogen receptor (ER) status (P=0.008). Significant differences were detected in the rs1042713 genotypes of pCR and non-pCR patients (P=0.046). The pCR rate was 18.2% in patients with ADRB2 rs1042713 AA genotypes and 38.7% in AG+GG genotypes. Women carrying the AG+GG (OR=2.91, 95% CI: 1.02-8.29, P=0.046) genotype had a higher pCR rate than those with the AA genotype. Conclusion:rs1042713, which is located in the ADRB2 gene, could predict pCR to taxane-and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in LABC. This finding suggests that rs1042713 could play a potential role as a predictive marker in clinical settings.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The main purpose was to investigate the correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based response patterns halfway through neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy (NAC) and pathological tumor response in patients with breast cancer. Secondary purposes were to compare the predictive value of MRI-based response patterns measured halfway through NAC and after NAC and to measure interobserver variability. METHODS:All consecutive patients treated with NAC for primary invasive breast cancer from 2012 to 2015 and who underwent breast MRI before, halfway through (and after) NAC were included. All breast tumors were reassessed on MRI by two experienced breast radiologists and classified into six patterns: type 0 (complete radiologic response); type 1 (concentric shrinkage); type 2 (crumbling); type 3 (diffuse enhancement); type 4 (stable disease); type 5 (progressive disease). Percentages of tumors showing pathological complete response (pCR), > 50% tumor reduction and > 50% tumor diameter reduction per MRI-based response pattern were calculated. Correlation between MRI-based response patterns and pathological tumor reduction was studied with Pearson's correlation coefficient, and interobserver agreement was tested with Cohen's Kappa. RESULTS:Patients (n = 76; mean age 53, range 29-72 years) with 80 tumors (4 bilateral) were included. There was significant correlation between these MRI-based response patterns halfway through NAC and tumor reduction on pathology assessment (reader 1 r = 0.33; p = 0.003 and reader 2 r = 0.45; p < 0.001). Type-0, type-1 or type-2 patterns halfway through NAC showed highest tumor reduction rates on pathology assessment, with > 50% tumor reduction in 90%, 78% and 65% of cases, respectively. In 83% of tumors with type 0 halfway through NAC, pathology assessment showed pCR. There was no significant correlation between MRI-based response patterns after NAC and tumor reduction rates on pathology assessment (reader 1 r = - 0.17; p = 0.145 and reader 2 r = - 0.17; p = 0.146). In 41% of tumors with type 0 after NAC, pathology assessment showed pCR. CONCLUSION:MRI-based response patterns halfway through NAC can predict pathologic response more accurately than MRI-based response patterns after NAC. Complete radiological response halfway NAC is associated with 83% pCR, while complete radiological response after NAC seems to be correct in only 41% of cases.

Project description:BackgroundGermline genetic polymorphisms in certain genes are associated with response to anthracycline- and taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer (BC). Recent evidence has indicated that microRNA (miRNA) let-7 expression is associated with response to chemotherapeutics. This study aims to evaluate the potential role of let-7 miRNA-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (mirSNPs) in the prediction of pathologic complete response to taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC).MethodsWe genotyped the SNPs that reside in and around miRNA let-7 binding sites of two target genes: hypoxia-inducible factor 1 subunit alpha inhibitor (HIF1AN) and claudin 12 (CLDN12). The distribution frequencies of the SNPs were genotyped in LABC patients who received taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Associations among tumour-relevant biomarkers, genotype and pathological complete response (pCR) were evaluated using Student's t-test for continuous variables and the chi-square or Fisher's exact tests for non-categorical variables. The modified odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by a multivariate logistic regression analysis to explore the association of genotype with pCR.ResultsFor rs11292, which is located in the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of HIF1AN, significant differences were detected in codominant, dominant and overdominant models between the patients who achieved pCR and those who did not (non-pCR) (P<0.05) in a multivariate analysis. For rs1017105, which is located in the 3'-UTR of CLDN12, significant differences were observed in the recessive model between the pCR and non-pCR patients with luminal-type BC.ConclusionsLet-7-related mirSNPs could predict pathologic complete response to taxane- and platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in LABC, which suggests the potential role of variants of miRNA let-7-related gene networks as predictive markers in a clinical setting.
