Abstract Text

To elucidate the role of predictive factors on individual's drug response, based on genetic variation, we examined the association between eight germline polymorphisms in genes involved in protection against oxidative stress, apoptosis, oncogenic transformation, proliferation, immune response and DNA repair (TP53, NQO1, IL6, TLR4 and XRCC1) and the pathological response to anthracycline-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in 70 patients with breast cancer. The DNA was genotyped for eight polymorphisms in five genes (TP53, NQO1, IL6, TLR4 and XRCC1) by 5'-exonuclease (TaqMan™) technology. Fisher's exact test was used to evaluate the association between genotype, clinicopathological parameters and pathological response. A good pathological response, defined as a pathological complete response or residual isolated invasive tumor cells, was found significantly more frequently for estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) negative breast carcinomas compared to ER and PR positive and ER or PR positive carcinomas, respectively (43.5 vs. 37.5 and 10.3 %, p = 0.006), and was significantly associated with high tumor grade (G3) (p = 0.002). A non-significant trend towards a good pathological response was shown in patients carrying the Arg/Arg or Arg/Pro TP53 codon 72 gene variant compared to those harboring the Pro/Pro variant (17.6 or 37.9 % vs. 0; p = 0.071). No association was found between NQO1 Pro187Ser, IL6 -174G>C, TLR4 Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile, and XRCC1 Arg194Trp, Arg399Gln and Arg280His and pathological response. The present study shows hormone receptor status and tumor grade as predictors for pathological response to neoadjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy. Among various functional germline polymorphisms, a potential predictive value was only found for the TP53 Arg72Pro gene variant.

Filtering

Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
Use simple literal full or partial string matches
Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
