Abstract
PURPOSE: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate whether an association exists between the ERCC1 rs11615 (C>T) polymorphism and patient response to platinum-based chemotherapy and radiation-based chemotherapy. METHODS: Publications were selected from PubMed and MEDLINE. A meta-analysis was conducted to determine the association between genetic polymorphisms and response to platinum-based chemotherapy and radiation-based chemotherapy by checking the odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS: In our overall analysis, the ERCC1 rs11615 (C>T) polymorphism was not associated with response to platinum-based chemotherapy in five comparison models. In the subgroup analyses by ethnicity, the ERCC1 rs11615 (C>T) polymorphism was shown to be significantly associated with objective response in Caucasian patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy in the recessive model (TT vs. CT/CC: OR 0.696, 95 % CI 0.508-0.954, heterogeneity = 0.330), but the association was not observed in the Asian population. The C allele was significantly associated with better response to radiochemotherapy in the recessive model comparison (TT vs. CC/CT: OR 0.724, 95 % CI 0.585-0.869, heterogeneity = 0.008). Subgroup analysis by cancer type revealed that the C allele of ERCC1 rs11615 predicted a better response in esophageal cancers in two comparison models (T vs. C: OR 0.756, 95 % CI 0.648-0.880, heterogeneity = 0.653; TT vs. TC/CC: OR 0.457, 95 % CI 0.306-0.684, heterogeneity = 0.723). Stratified analysis by ethnicity showed a better response in Caucasians in allelic comparison model (T vs. C: OR 0.895, 95 % CI 0.819-0.977, heterogeneity = 0.095). CONCLUSION: Together, our results suggest that the ERCC1 rs11615 (C>T) polymorphism was associated with therapeutic response in Caucasian patients and C allele of ERCC1 rs11615 could represent a genetic molecular marker to predict better patient response to radiochemotherapy in recessive model. However, larger prospective randomized trials will be required.
