XRCC1 polymorphisms associated with survival among Chinese bladder cancer patients receiving epirubicin and mitomycin C.
Tumour Biology : the Journal of the International Society for Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine 2015 June
The association between DNA repair gene polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk has been widely studied. However, only few studies have examined the correlation between bladder cancer and instillation agent sensitivity. The aim of this study was to examine the association between polymorphisms of DNA repair genes, namely X-ray repair cross-complementing group I (XRCC1) rs2854509 and rs3213255, and bladder cancer recurrence risk. We recruited 244 patients (130 treated with epirubicin and 114 treated with mitomycin C). Genomic DNA was used to examine the XRCC1 rs2854509 and rs3213255 genotypes by Taqman PCR analysis. Combination analysis of XRCC1 rs2854509 and rs3213255 and examination of XRCC1 diplotypes were performed to reveal possible correlations. The rs2854509 CC and rs3213255 TT genotypes conferred shorter survival times than the rs2854509 AC/AA and rs3213255 CC/CT genotypes in patients treated with epirubicin, but not in those treated with mitomycin C (MMC) in adjusted models [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.23, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 0.10-0.53 for rs2854509 AC + AA compared with CC; HR = 0.17, 95 % CI = 0.06-0.46 for rs3213255 CC + CT compared with TT]. Combination analysis showed significantly increased recurrence-free survival (RFS) among patients simultaneously carrying the rs2854509 AC/AA and rs3213255 CC/CT genotypes with an HR of 0.15 (95 % CI = 0.05-0.45) compared to those carrying other genotypes. Diplotype analysis demonstrated that the A-C/C-T diplotype is associated with a lower risk of recurrence compared with the common wild C-T/C-T diplotype (HR = 0.17, 95 % CI = 0.06-0.51). Our results suggest that the rs2854509 CC and rs3213255 TT genotypes confer higher sensitivity to epirubicin instillation. Moreover, the A-C/C-T diplotype presents significantly lower recurrence risk than other diplotypes.
