Association of PTEN Gene SNPs rs2299939 With PFS in Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer Treated With Early Radiotherapy.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer has higher morbidity and mortality than most cancers. It is common that there are some phenomenons of secondary drug resistance, radiotherapy resistance and poor prognosis during the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Recent studies revealed that the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with the curative effect among patients with the same pathological type and stage. Our study analyzed the start time of radiotherapy and the relationship between PTEN gene rs2299939 polymorphisms and survival time among 116 SCLC patients. The results showed that early radiotherapy significantly improved the time of survival in patients compared with late radiotherapy ( P = 0.029). Simultaneously, the study found that patients with the rs2299939 AA genotype showed significant sensitivity to both early and late radiotherapy, but early radiotherapy is better. The median survival time of CC genotype patients was 12 months in the early radiotherapy group while it was 9 months in the late radiotherapy group, thus recommending early radiotherapy among these patients. In addition, it was found that rs2299939 could regulate the expression of related genes in peripheral blood and lung tissues by eQTL analysis. This study revealed that the early radiotherapy could prolong the PFS of SCLC and shall be performed in SCLC treatment.

Project description:PurposeChanges in tumour 3'-deoxy-3'-[(18)F]fluorothymidine (FLT) uptake during concurrent chemo-radiotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have been reported, at variable time points, in two pilot positron emission tomography (PET) studies. The aim of this study was to assess whether FLT changes occur early in response to radiotherapy (RT) without concurrent chemotherapy and whether such changes exceed test-retest variability.MethodsSixteen patients with NSCLC, scheduled to have radical RT, underwent FLT PET once/twice at baseline to assess reproducibility and/or after 5-11 RT fractions to evaluate response. Primary and nodal malignant lesions were manually delineated on CT and volume, mean and maximum standardized uptake values (SUV(mean) and SUV(max)) estimated. Analysis included descriptive statistics and parameter fitting to a mixed-effects model accounting for patients having different numbers of evaluable lesions.ResultsIn all, 35 FLT PET scans from 7 patients with a total of 18 lesions and 12 patients with a total of 30 lesions were evaluated for reproducibility and response, respectively. SUV(mean) reproducibility in primary tumours (SD 8.9%) was better than SUV(max) reproducibility (SD 12.6%). In nodes, SUV(mean) and SUV(max) reproducibilities (SD 18.0 and 17.2%) were comparable but worse than for primary tumours. After 5-11 RT fractions, primary tumour SUV(mean) decreased significantly by 25% (p = 0.0001) in the absence of significant volumetric change, whereas metastatic nodes decreased in volume by 31% (p = 0.020) with a larger SUV(mean) decrease of 40% (p < 0.0001). Similar changes were found for SUV(max).ConclusionAcross this group of NSCLC patients, RT induced an early, significant decrease in lesion FLT uptake exceeding test-retest variability. This effect is variable between patients, appears distinct between primary and metastatic nodal lesions, and in primary tumours is lower than previously reported for concurrent chemo-RT at a similar time point. These results confirm the potential for FLT PET to report early on radiation response and to enhance the clinical development of novel drug-radiation combinations by providing an interpretable, early pharmacodynamic end point.
