NF-kB2 Genetic Variations are Significantly Associated with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Risk and Overall Survival.

ABSTRACT: During the last decade, a growing number of publications implicate NF-kB2 in NSCLC pathogenesis. Here, we investigated the clinical relevance of NF-kB2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7897947, rs11574852 and rs12769316 in NSCLC and their association with NF-kB2 protein and mRNA levels. Our data show that TT (rs7897947T >G) and AA (rs12769316G >A) genotypes were strongly associated with an increased risk for NSCLC (P = 0.019 and P = 0.003, respectively). Additionally, in multivariate analysis, TT (rs7897947T >G) homozygosity was associated with worse 2- and 3-year survival rates (P = 0.030 and P = 0.028, respectively), especially among patients with stages III/IV, who had worse 2, 3 and 5-year survival (P = 0.001, P = 0.022 and P = 0.035, respectively). In chemotherapy-treated patients, TT (rs12769316G >A) homozygosity was also associated with worse 2- and 3-year survival compared to G allele carriers (P = 0.006 and P = 0.014, respectively). Furthermore, rs12769316 was correlated with survival outcome of stage I and II patients (P = 0.031 and P = 0.006, respectively). Interestingly, amongst the patients who developed metastases, A allele carriers had better 5-year survival (P = 0.020). In addition, rs12769316 was associated with NF-kB2 protein (P = 0.001) and mRNA expression (P = 0.017) as well as with tumor maximum diameter (P = 0.025). Overall, this study suggests that rs7897947 and rs12769316 are involved in NSCLC susceptibility, in treatment response and in clinical outcome.

Project description:This study aimed to create a risk score generated from CT-based radiomics signatures that could be used to predict overall survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We retrospectively enrolled three sets of NSCLC patients (including 336, 84, and 157 patients for training, testing, and validation set, respectively). A total of 851 radiomics features for each patient from CT images were extracted for further analyses. The most important features (strongly linked with overall survival) were chosen by pairwise correlation analysis, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression model, and univariate Cox proportional hazard regression. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard model survival analysis was used to create risk scores for each patient, and Kaplan-Meier was used to separate patients into two groups: high-risk and low-risk, respectively. ROC curve assessed the prediction ability of the risk score model for overall survival compared to clinical parameters. The risk score, which developed from ten radiomics signatures model, was found to be independent of age, gender, and stage for predicting overall survival in NSCLC patients (HR, 2.99; 95% CI, 2.27-3.93; p < 0.001) and overall survival prediction ability was 0.696 (95% CI, 0.635-0.758), 0.705 (95% CI, 0.649-0.762), 0.657 (95% CI, 0.589-0.726) (AUC) for 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively, in the training set. The risk score is more likely to have a better accuracy in predicting survival at 1, 3, and 5 years than clinical parameters, such as age 0.57 (95% CI, 0.499-0.64), 0.552 (95% CI, 0.489-0.616), 0.621 (95% CI, 0.544-0.689) (AUC); gender 0.554, 0.546, 0.566 (AUC); stage 0.527, 0.501, 0.459 (AUC), respectively, in 1, 3 and 5 years in the training set. In the training set, the Kaplan-Meier curve revealed that NSCLC patients in the high-risk group had a lower overall survival time than the low-risk group (p < 0.001). We also had similar results that were statistically significant in the testing and validation set. In conclusion, risk scores developed from ten radiomics signatures models have great potential to predict overall survival in NSCLC patients compared to the clinical parameters. This model was able to stratify NSCLC patients into high-risk and low-risk groups regarding the overall survival prediction.

Project description:PurposeVariations in genes related to biological activity of anticancer drugs could influence treatment responses and lung cancer prognosis. Genetic variants in four biological pathways, that is, glutathione metabolism, DNA repair, cell cycle, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), were systematically investigated to examine their association with survival in advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with chemotherapy.Experimental designA total of 894 tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in 70 genes from the four pathways were genotyped and analyzed in a 1,076-patient cohort. Association with overall survival was analyzed at SNP and whole-gene levels within all patients and major chemotherapy agent combination groups.ResultsA poorer overall survival was observed in patients with genetic variations in GSS (glutathione pathway) and MAP3K1 (EGFR pathway; HR = 1.45; 95% CI = 1.20-1.77 and HR = 1.25; 95% CI = 1.05-1.50, respectively). In the stratified analysis on patients receiving platinum plus taxane treatment, we observed a hazardous effect on overall survival by the MAP3K1 variant (HR = 1.38; 95% CI = 1.11-1.72) and a protective effect by RAF1 (HR = 0.64; 95% CI = 0.50-0.82) in the EGFR pathway. In patients receiving platinum plus gemcitabine treatment, RAF1 and GPX5 (glutathione pathway) genetic variations showed protective effects on survival (HR = 0.54; 95% CI = 0.38-0.77; HR = 0.67; 95% CI = 0.52-0.85, respectively); in contrast, NRAS (EGFR pathway) and GPX7 (glutathione pathway) variations showed hazardous effects on overall survival (HR = 1.91; 95% CI = 1.30-2.80; HR = 1.83; 95% CI = 1.27-2.63, respectively). All genes that harbored these significant SNPs remained significant by whole-gene analysis.ConclusionCommon genetic variations in genes of EGFR and glutathione pathways may be associated with overall survival among patients with advanced stage NSCLC treated with platinum, taxane, and/or gemicitabine combinations.
