Abstract
AIM: Although targeted therapy is very efficient for lung cancer, traditional platinum-based chemotherapies are still the principal strategy in the absence of positive biomarkers. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the contribution of RAD18 polymorphisms to platinum-chemotherapy response and its potential side effects in Chinese patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: A total of 1021 Chinese patients with histological diagnosis of advanced NSCLC were enrolled. Treatment responses were classified into 4 categories (complete response, partial response, stable disease and progressive disease). Gastrointestinal and hematological toxicity incidences were assessed twice a week during the first-line treatment. Ten RAD18 SNPs were genotyped. A logistic regression model was utilized to analyze the associations between RAD18 SNPs and treatment response or toxicity. RESULTS: Among the 10 SNPs tested, none was significantly correlated with the treatment response in a combined cohort. For gastrointestinal toxicity incidences, rs586014 was significantly associated with an increased risk of grade 3 or 4 gastrointestinal toxicity in non-smokers and in the combined cohort; rs654448 and rs618784 were significantly associated with gastrointestinal toxicity in non-smokers; rs6763823 was significantly associated with gastrointestinal toxicity in smokers. For hematological toxicity incidences, rs586014, rs654448 and rs618784 were significantly associated with hematologic toxicity in non-smokers; rs6763823 and rs9880051 were significantly associated with leukocytopenia in smokers. CONCLUSION: RAD18 polymorphisms are correlated with the side effects of platinum-chemotherapy in Chinese patients with advanced NSCLC.
