Abstract
Objective: To explore the possible relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in candidate genes encoding DNA damage recognition/repair/response and steroid metabolism proteins with respect to clinical radiation toxicity in a retrospective cohort of patients previously treated with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3-DCRT) for prostate cancer. Experimental Design: One hundred twenty-four patients with prostate cancer underwent 3-DCRT at our institution between September 1996 and December 2000. Of these, 83 consented for follow-up of blood sampling and SNP analysis. Twenty-eight patients were documented as having experienced grade ≥2 late bladder or rectal toxicity (scoring system of Radiation Therapy Oncology Group) on at least one follow-up visit. We analyzed 49 SNPs in BRCA1, BRCA2, ESR1, XRCC1, XRCC2, XRCC3, NBN, RAD51, RAD52, LIG4, ATM, BCL2, TGFB1, MSH6, ERCC2, XPF, NR3C1, CYP1A1, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A5, CYP2D6, CYP11B2, and CYP17A1 genes using the Pyrosequencing technique. Results: Significant univariate associations with late rectal or bladder toxicity (grade ≥2) were found for XRCC3 (A>G 5′ untranslated region NT 4541), LIG4 (T>C Asp568Asp), MLH1 (C>T, Val219Ile), CYP2D6*4 (G>A splicing defect), mean rectal and bladder dose, dose to 30% of rectum or bladder, and age C, Asp568Asp), ERCC2 (G>A, Asp711Asp), CYP2D6*4 (G>A, splicing defect), mean bladder dose >60 Gy, and dose to 30% of rectal volume >75 Gy. Conclusions: In this study, we identified SNPs in LIG4, ERCC2, and CYP2D6 genes as putative markers to predict individuals at risk for complications arising from radiation therapy in prostate cancer.Keywords
