Polymorphisms of glutathione S-transferases (GST) and thymidylate synthase (TS)--novel predictors for response and survival in gastric cancer patients.

Abstract:

:To evaluate the predictive value of a panel of gene polymorphisms involved in metabolism of 5-FU and cisplatin on clinical outcome in advanced gastric cancer patients. A total of 52 patients were enrolled in this study. DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded tumour specimen. Genotypes were determined using PCR-RFLP. Median survival time was 6.0 months (95% CI 3.9;8.1). Overall response rate was 26%. Patients possessing the glutathione S-transferase P1-105 Valine/Valine (GSTP1-105VV) genotype showed a response rate of 67% compared to 21% in patients harbouring at least one GSTP1-105 Isoleucine (GSTP1-105I) allele (P=0.038). GSTP1-105VV patients demonstrated a significant superior median survival time of 15.0 months (95% CI 7.8;22.0) compared to 6.0 months (95% CI 5.1;7.0) in patients with at least one GSTP1-105I allele (P=0.037). Patients possessing a favourable thymidylate synthase (TS) genotype (2R/2R, 2R/3RC, 3RC/3RC) experienced a superior survival time of 10.2 months (95% CI 5.1;15.3) compared to 6.0 months (95% CI 5.0;7.0) in patients with unfavourable TS genotypes (P=0.099). Patients harbouring the GSTP1-105II genotype and one of the unfavourable TS genotypes showed an inferior median survival time of 6.0 months (95% CI 3.9;8.1) compared to 11 months (95% CI 6,23;15,77) in patients with either GSTP1-105VV or a favourable TS genotype (P=0.044). Testing for TS and GSTP1 polymorphisms may allow identification of gastric cancer patients who will benefit from 5-FU/cisplatin chemotherapy, sparing others the side effects of this chemotherapy.
