- Abstract
Purpose: Fluoropyrimidines are one of the most used drug class to treat cancer patients, although they show high levels of associated toxicity. This study analyzed 33 polymorphisms in 17 pharmacogenes involved with the pharmacogenomics of fluoropyrimidines, in gastrointestinal cancer patients undergoing fluoropyrimidine-based treatment in the Brazilian Amazon. Methods: The study population was composed of 216 patients, 92 of whom have an anatomopathological diagnosis of gastric cancer and 124 of colorectal cancer. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were genotyped by allelic discrimination using the TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping technology, with a panel of 32 customized assays, run in a QuantStudio ™ 12K Flex Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Life Technologies, Carlsbad USA). Ancestry analysis was performed using 61 autosomal ancestry informative markers (AIMs). Results: The study population show mean values of 48.1% European, 31.1% Amerindian, and 20.8% African ancestries. A significant risk association for general and severe toxicity was found in the rs4451422 of FPGS (p = 0.001; OR 3.40; CI 95% 1.65–7.00 and p = 0.006; OR 4.63; CI 95% 1.56–13.72, respectively) and the rs9524885 of ABCC4 (p = 0.023; OR 2.74; CI 95% 1.14–6.65 and p = 0.024; OR 5.36; IC 95% 1.24–23.11, respectively) genes. The rs760370 in the SLC29A1 gene (p = 0.009; OR 6.71; CI 95% 1.16–8.21) and the rs1801133 in the MTHFR toxicity (p = 0.023; OR 3.09; CI 95% 1.16–8.21) gene also demonstrated to be significant, although only for severe toxicity. The results found in this study did not have statistics analysis correction. Conclusion: Four polymorphisms of the ABCC4, FPGS, SLC29A1, and MTHFR genes are likely to be potential predictive biomarkers for precision medicine in fluoropyrimidine-based treatments in the population of the Brazilian Amazon, which is constituted by a unique genetic background.
