Genetic variations in DNA repair gene NEIL1 associated with radiation pneumonitis risk in lung cancer patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is a common side effect in lung cancer patients who received radiotherapy. Our previous study found genetic variations in DNA repair gene NEIL1 may be a predictor of RP in patients with esophageal cancer. So, we hypothesis genetic variations in NEIL1 gene could affect the risk of RP in lung cancer patients following radiotherapy.

Methods

Genetic variations rs4462560 G>C and rs7402844 C>G in NEIL1 gene were genotyped in 174 lung cancer patients received radio(chemo)therapy. Luciferase assay, real-time PCR and Western blot were used to access the effect of the variants on NEIL1 in HELF and HEF cell lines which were transfected with plasmids containing rs4462560 G>C and rs7402844 C>G.

Results

Patients with rs4462560 CC genotype had a lower risk of RP grade ≥2 than GG genotype. Compared with the CC genotype, rs7402844 GG genotype was associated with an increased RP grade ≥2 risk. What is more, rs4462560 G decreased the relative luciferase activity of NEIL1 gene promoter compared with the negative control in vitro, while rs4462560 C can increase the relative luciferase activity. The mRNA and protein level of the NEIL1 gene in rs4462560 G were lower than rs4462560 C.

Conclusions

Genetic variants of NEIL1 are associated with RP risk through regulation of NEIL1 expression and serve as independent biomarkers for prediction of RP in patients treated with thoracic radiotherapy.

Association of DNA repair gene polymorphisms with the risk of radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer patients.

Project description:A total of 149 lung cancer patients were recruited to receive intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The association of developing radiation pneumonitis (RP) with genetic polymorphism was evaluated. The risks of four polymorphic sites in three DNA repair related genes (ERCC1, rs116615:T354C and rs3212986:C1516A; ERCC2, rs13181:A2251C; XRCC1, rs25487:A1196G) for developing grade ≥ 2 RP were assessed respectively. It was observed that ERCC1 T354C SNP had a significant effect on the development of grade ≥ 2 RP (CT/TT vs. CC, adjusted HR = 0.517, 95% CI, 0.285-0.939; adjusted P = 0.030). It is the first time demonstrating that CT/TT genotype of ERCC1 354 was significantly associated with lower RP risk after radio therapy.

Association between Genetic Variants in DNA Double-Strand Break Repair Pathways and Risk of Radiation Therapy-Induced Pneumonitis and Esophagitis in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Project description:Radiation therapy (RT)-induced pneumonitis and esophagitis are commonly developed side effects in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with definitive RT. Identifying patients who are at increased risk for these toxicities would help to maximize treatment efficacy while minimizing toxicities. Here, we systematically investigated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway as potential predictive markers for radiation-induced esophagitis and pneumonitis. We genotyped 440 SNPs from 45 genes in DSB repair pathways in 250 stage I-III NSCLC patients who received definitive radiation or chemoradiation therapy, followed by internal validation in 170 additional patients. We found that 11 SNPs for esophagitis and 8 SNPs for pneumonitis showed consistent effects between discovery and validation populations (same direction of OR and reached significance in meta-analysis). Among them, rs7165790 in the BLM gene was significantly associated with decreased risk of esophagitis in both discovery (OR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.37-0.97, p = 0.037) and validation subgroups (OR = 0.45, 95% CI: 0.22-0.94, p = 0.032). A strong cumulative effect was observed for the top SNPs, and gene-based tests revealed 12 genes significantly associated with esophagitis or pneumonitis. Our results support the notion that genetic variations within DSB repair pathway could influence the risk of developing toxicities following definitive RT in NSCLC.

A polymorphism in the DNA repair domain of APEX1 is associated with the radiation-induced pneumonitis risk among lung cancer patients after radiotherapy.

Project description:ObjectiveTo examine the association of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) (rs1130409, rs1760944, rs2307486 and rs3136817) in APEX1 with the risk of severe radiation-induced pneumonitis (RP) after radiotherapy among Han Chinese patients with lung cancer.MethodsA total of 168 patients with lung cancer who were receiving radiotherapy were prospectively recruited. RP was evaluated according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group. A case-control study was performed. The case group included patients with RP grade of ≥3, while the control group comprised patients with RP grades <3. Four tagSNPs of APEX1 were genotyped in 126 patients with complete follow-up by multi-SNaPshot® (Genesky Biotechnologies Inc., Shanghai, China) genotyping assays. RESULTS were assessed by a logistic regression model for RP risk and Mantal-Cox log-rank test for the cumulative RP probability by the genotypes.Resultsrs1130409 was associated with severe RP. GT genotype of rs1130409 was significantly higher in patients with RP than in those of the control group [68.8% vs 41.8%; p = 0.025; resulting odds ratio (OR), 5.98]. Patients with lung cancer bearing the G allele had a 5.83-fold higher risk of RP than those with the wild TT genotype [OR = 5.83; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.27-26.90; p = 0.024], and this was further confirmed by the binary regression adjusted by some confounding factors, including Karnofsky performance scale, concurrent chemotherapy-radiotherapy and lung volume receiving >30 Gy (OR = 6.96; 95% CI, 1.36-35.77; p = 0.02). rs1130409 was also associated with the time to occurrence of severe RP (p = 0.04). Three-dimensional model APEX1 protein showed that rs1130409 is located in the random coil structure corresponding to the DNA repair function region.Advances in knowledgers1130409 of APEX1 can be a predictor of RP grades ≥3 among patients with lung cancer.

Genetic variants in the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene are associated with an increased risk of radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer patients.

Project description:Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) plays a crucial role in the process of lung injury, although its association with radiation pneumonitis (RP) is unclear. We hypothesized that genetic variants in PAI-1 may influence the risk of RP. In this study, 169 lung cancer patients were genotyped for six single-nucleotide polymorphisms in PAI-1 using the Sequenom MassARRAY system. The risk of RP was evaluated by Cox proportional hazards analyses. The cumulative RP probabilities by genotype were assessed using Kaplan-Meier analyses. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that PAI-1:rs7242 GT/GG was correlated with an increased occurrence of grade ≥3 RP (crude hazard ratio = 3.331; 95% confidence interval, 1.168-9.497; P = 0.024). Our results indicated that PAI-1:rs7242 in the 3'-untranslated region of PAI-1 can be a predictor of grade ≥3 RP before radiotherapy.

Impact of genetic variant of HIPK2 on the risk of severe radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer patients treated with radiation therapy.

Project description:BackgroundHomeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2) has increasingly drawn attention as recent researches demonstrated its unique role in the regulation of multiple fundamental processes such as apoptosis, proliferation and DNA damage repair. Most importantly, HIPK2 was shown to play regulatory role in inflammation and influence the phenotype and activity of fibroblasts. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of HIPK2 gene variant on risk of radiation pneumonitis for patients with pulmonary malignancies.Methods169 lung cancer patients with radiotherapy were included in our prospective study and genotyped by Sanger Sequence method. Multivariable Cox hazard analysis and multiple testing were applied to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of all factors possibly related to the risk of radiation pneumonitis (RP).ResultsPatients with Mean Lung Dose (MLD) ≥ 15Gy, Lung V20 ≥ 24% had higher risk of RP ≥ grade 2 compared with those counterparts (HR = 1.888, 95% CI: 1.186-3.004, P = 0.007; HR = 2.126, 95% CI: 1.338-3.378, P = 0.001, respectively). Importantly, CC genotype of HIPK2: rs2030712 were strongly related to an increased occurrence of RP ≥ grade 2 (HR = 2.146, 95% CI: 1.215-3.791, P = 0.009).ConclusionHIPK2: rs2030712 was found to be significantly related to RP of grade ≥ 2 in our cohort, and may thus be one of the important predictors of severe RP before radiotherapy, if further validated in larger population.Trial registrationOur study was prospective and observational. The research was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov database as NCT02490319.

Risk factors for radiation pneumonitis after rotating gantry intensity-modulated radiation therapy for lung cancer.

Project description:The risk factors for severe radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients with lung cancer who undergo rotating gantry intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) or helical tomotherapy (HT) are poorly understood. Fifty-two patients who received rotating gantry IMRT for locally advanced lung cancer were included in this retrospective study. In total, 31 and 21 patients received VMAT and HT, respectively. The median follow-up duration was 14 months (range, 5.2-33.6). Twenty (38%) and eight (15%) patients developed grade ≥ 2 and ≥ 3 RP, respectively. In multivariate analysis, lung V5 ≥ 40% was associated with grade ≥ 2 RP (P = 0.02), and past medical history of pneumonectomy and total lung volume ≤ 3260 cc were independently associated with grade ≥ 3 RP (P = 0.02 and P = 0.03, respectively). Rotating gantry IMRT was feasible and safe in patients with lung cancer undergoing definitive radiotherapy. Reducing lung V5 may decrease the risk of symptomatic RP, and care should be taken to avoid severe RP after radiotherapy in patients with a past medical history of pneumonectomy and small total lung volume.

Framework for radiation pneumonitis risk stratification based on anatomic and perfused lung dosimetry.

Project description:PurposeTo design and apply a framework for predicting symptomatic radiation pneumonitis in patients undergoing thoracic radiation, using both pretreatment anatomic and perfused lung dose-volume parameters.Materials and methodsRadiation treatment planning CT scans were coregistered with pretreatment [99mTc]MAA perfusion SPECT/CT scans of 20 patients who underwent definitive thoracic radiation. Clinical radiation pneumonitis was defined as grade ≥ 2 (CTCAE v4 grading system). Anatomic lung dose-volume parameters were collected from the treatment planning scans. Perfusion dose-volume parameters were calculated from pretreatment SPECT/CT scans. Equivalent doses in 2 Gy per fraction were calculated in the lung to account for differences in treatment regimens and spatial variations in lung dose (EQD2lung).ResultsAnatomic lung dosimetric parameters (MLD) and functional lung dosimetric parameters (pMLD70%) were identified as candidate predictors of grade ≥ 2 radiation pneumonitis (AUC > 0.93, p < 0.01). Pairing of an anatomic and functional dosimetric parameter (e. g., MLD and pMLD70%) may further improve prediction accuracy. Not all individuals with high anatomic lung dose (MLD > 13.6 GyEQD2lung, 19.3 Gy for patients receiving 60 Gy in 30 fractions) developed radiation pneumonitis, but all individuals who also had high mean dose to perfused lung (pMLD70% > 13.3 GyEQD2) developed radiation pneumonitis.ConclusionsThe preliminary application of this framework revealed differences between anatomic and perfused lung dosimetry in this limited patient cohort. The addition of perfused lung parameters may help risk stratify patients for radiation pneumonitis, especially in treatment plans with high anatomic mean lung dose. Further investigations are warranted.

Genetic variants of the LIN28B gene predict severe radiation pneumonitis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with definitive radiation therapy.

Project description:BACKGROUND:LIN28 is an RNA-binding protein that not only plays key roles in multiple cellular developmental processes and tumourigenesis, but also is involved in tissue inflammatory response. However, no published study has investigated associations between genetic variants in LIN28 and radiation-induced pneumonitis (RP) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with definitive radiation therapy. METHODS:We genotyped eight potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of LIN28A (rs11247946 T>C, rs3811464 C>T, rs11581746 T>C, and rs12728900 G>A) and LIN28B (rs314280 G>A, rs12194974 G>A, rs17065417 A>C and rs314276 C>A) in 362 patients with NSCLC, who received definitive radio(chemo)therapy. The associations between RP risk and genotypes were assessed by hazards ratio (HR) in Cox proportional hazards regression analysis with time to event considered with and without adjustment for potential confounders. RESULTS:Multivariate analyses found that patients carrying LIN28B rs314280 AG and AA/AG or rs314276 AC and AA/AC genotypes had a higher risk of grade ?3 RP (for rs314280 AG and AA/AG versus GG, adjusted HR=2.97 and 2.23, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.32-6.72 and 1.01-4.94, P=0.009 and 0.048, respectively; for rs314276 AC and AA/AC versus CC, adjusted HR=2.30 and 2.00, 95% CI=1.24-4.28 and 1.11-3.62, and P=0.008 and 0.022, respectively). Further stratified analyses showed a more consistent and profound risk in the subgroups of age <65years, males, stage III/IV, ever smokers, having radio-chemotherapy and mean lung dose (MLD) ?19.0Gy. CONCLUSION:Genetic variants of LIN28B, but not LIN28A, may be biomarkers for susceptibility to severe RP in NSCLC patients. Large, prospective studies are needed to confirm our findings.

Genetic variants of SP-D confer susceptibility to radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer patients undergoing thoracic radiation therapy.

Project description:BackgroundSurfactant protein D (SP-D) is an innate immunity molecule in the alveoli. However, the associations between genetic variants of SP-D and radiation pneumonitis (RP) have never been investigated.MethodsThe Linkage disequilibrium of SP-D and tagSNPs were analyzed by using Haploview 4.1. Eight tagSNPs were genotyped among 396 lung cancer patients who received thoracic radiation therapy with follow-up time (median [P25, P75]: 11[6, 18]) using improved multiplex ligation detection reaction (iMLDR). The associations between clinical characteristics, tagSNP alleles, genotypes, haplotypes and onset time of grade ≥2 or ≥3 RP were evaluated by using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model.ResultsThree tagSNPs of SP-D (rs1998374, rs911887 and rs2255326) were significantly associated with grade ≥2 RP in multivariate analysis with multiple testing (Q test). The rs199874 had a protective effect for grade ≥2 RP in the dominant model (Hazard ratio (HR), 0.575; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.378-0.875). The homozygous mutant genotype for rs911887 had risk effect for grade ≥2 RP (HR, 2.209; 95% CI, 1.251-3.902). The A mutant allele of rs2255326 also showed an elevated risk for grade ≥2 RP (HR, 1.777; 95% CI, 1.283-2.461) and this risk effect was still significant in the recessive genetic model (HR, 3.320; 95% CI, 1.659-6.644) and dominant genetic model (HR, 1.773; 95% CI, 1.166-2.696). Compared to the lung cancer patients bearing the most common haplotype C-G-T, the patients bearing the haplotype T-A-C (rs1998374-rs2255326-rs911887) showed a significant risk of both grade ≥2 RP (HR, 1.885; 95% CI, 1.284-2.765) and grade ≥3 RP (HR, 2.256; 95% CI, 1.248-4.080).ConclusionsGenetic variants of SP-D were associated with risk of RP development in lung cancer patients receiving thoracic radiotherapy.

Sequence variations in DNA repair gene XPC is associated with lung cancer risk in a Chinese population: a case-control study.

Project description:BackgroundThe nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein, xeroderma pigmentosum C (XPC), participates in recognizing DNA lesions and initiating DNA repair in response to DNA damage. Because mutations in XPC cause a high risk of cancer in XP patients, we hypothesized that inherited sequence variations in XPC may alter DNA repair and thus susceptibility to cancer.MethodsIn this hospital-based case-control study, we investigated five XPC tagging, common single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagging SNPs) in 1,010 patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer and 1,011 matched cancer free controls in a Chinese population.ResultsIn individual tagging SNP analysis, we found that rs3731055AG+AA variant genotypes were associated with a significantly decreased risk of lung adenocarcinoma [adjusted odds ratio (OR), 0.71; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.56-0.90] but an increased risk of small cell carcinomas [adjusted OR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.05-3.07]. Furthermore, we found that haplotype ACCCA was associated with a decreased risk of lung adenocarcinoma [OR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.62-0.97] but an increased risk of small cell carcinomas [OR, 1.68; 95% CI, 1.04-2.71], which reflected the presence of rs3731055A allele in this haplotype. Further stratified analysis revealed that the protective effect of rs3731055AG+AA on risk of lung adenocarcinoma was more evident among young subjects (age < or= 60) and never smokers.ConclusionThese results suggest that inherited sequence variations in XPC may modulate risk of lung cancer, especially lung adenocarcinoma, in Chinese populations. However, these findings need to be verified in larger confirmatory studies with more comprehensively selected tagging SNPs.
