Abstract
Breast cancer was declared the most prevalent type of cancer in 2020. Among other factors, treatment response can be affected by genetic polymorphisms - which is the focus of pharmacogenetics - and ethnicity is also a contributing factor in this context. Relevant genes in disease treatment pathways were selected to evaluate treatment response from the pharmacogenetic perspective; polymorphism frequencies and ethnic and continental representation across the available literature were also assessed through a systematic review. The identified associations and gaps have been described in this study with the purpose that, in the future, treatments can be personalized and thus be more effective, safer, and accessible to all.

Abstract
Nitric oxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulfide are three endogenous gasotransmitters that serve a role in regulating normal and pathological cellular activities. They can stimulate or inhibit cancer cell proliferation and invasion, as well as interfere with cancer cell responses to drug treatments. Understanding the molecular pathways governing the interactions between these gases and the tumor microenvironment can be utilized for the identification of a novel technique to disrupt cancer cell interactions and may contribute to the conception of effective and safe cancer therapy strategies. The present review discusses the effects of these gases in modulating the action of chemotherapies, as well as prospective pharmacological and therapeutic interfering approaches. A deeper knowledge of the mechanisms that underpin the cellular and pharmacological effects, as well as interactions, of each of the three gases could pave the way for therapeutic treatments and translational research.

Abstract
Objective: Angiogenesis plays an important role in the growth and metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Bevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that mainly acts on vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA). Kinase insert domain receptor (KDR) is the most important target of VEGFA. The aim of present study was to investigate the influence of KDR genetic variation on the efficacy and safety of patients with advanced NSCLC receiving first-line bevacizumab plus chemotherapy regimen. Methods: A total of 169 patients with advanced NSCLC who received bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy were recruited in this study. Clinical outcome of the regimens was evaluated in the hospital. Peripheral blood and biopsy tissue specimens of patients were collected for the genotyping of KDR genetic variation and KDR mRNA expression, respectively. The association between KDR genotype status and other variables were analyzed. Univariate analysis of genotype status and prognosis was implemented using the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to adjust the confounding factors. Results: Of the polymorphisms analyzed, only V297 L was of clinical significance. The prevalence of V297 L among the study population were as follows: CC genotype 123 cases (72.8%), CT genotype 41 cases (24.3%), TT genotype 5 cases (2.9%). The minimum allele frequency is 0.15. The distribution frequencies of the 3 genotypes corresponded with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P = 0.489). Patients with TT and CT genotypes were merged in the subsequent comparison of clinical outcomes. The analysis of efficacy exhibited that the objective response rates (ORR) of patients with CC genotype and CT/TT genotypes were 52.8% and 47.8% (P = 0.561), respectively. Prognosis indicated that the median progression free survival (PFS) of patients with CC genotype and CT/TT genotype were 8.9 and 5.5 months, respectively (P = 0.006). The median OS of the 2 genotypes were 20.0 and 14.9 months, respectively (P = 0.021). Adjusted in multivariate Cox regression analysis of PFS, CT/TT genotypes were an independent factor for PFS [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.59, P = 0.011). Safety profile according to genotype status of V297 L failed to find significant difference. Interestingly, the expression of KDR mRNA of patients with CT/TT genotype was significantly higher than that of patients with CC genotype in the 58 cancer tissue specimens (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The clinical comes of patients with advanced NSCLC receiving first-line bevacizumab plus chemotherapy regimens might be impacted by polymorphism V297 L through mediating the mRNA expression of KDR.

Abstract
Molecular-targeted drugs specifically interfere with molecules that are frequently overexpressed or mutated in cancer cells. As such, these drugs are generally considered to precisely attack cancer cells, thereby inducing fewer adverse drug reactions (ADRs). However, molecular-targeted drugs can still cause characteristic ADRs that, although rarely severe, can be life-threatening. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to be able to predict which patients are at risk of developing ADRs after treatment with molecular-targeted therapy. The emerging field of pharmacogenetics aims to better distinguish the genetic variants associated with drug toxicity and efficacy to improve the selection of therapeutic strategies for each genetic profile. Here, we provide an overview of the current reports on the relationship between genetic variants and molecular-targeted drug-induced severe ADRs in oncology.

Abstract
Background: The addition of bevacizumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy improves the pathological complete response rate of human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer patients. However, the characteristics of adverse events associated with the use of bevacizumab should receive more attention from clinicians. Objective: This meta-analysis aimed to detect the adverse events of adding bevacizumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy compared with neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone in HER2-negative breast cancer patients. Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases were systematically accessed to find eligible studies from January 1, 2000, to October 20, 2019. Reference lists were searched for additional studies. Pooled risk ratios for adverse events of bevacizumab were meta-analyzed. Results: Overall, 6 of 829 initially identified studies met the inclusion criteria, with 4681 patients randomized (2321 in the bevacizumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy group and 2360 in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group). The incidence of grade ≥3 hypertension, left-ventricular dysfunction, mucositis, febrile neutropenia, infection, pain, hand-foot syndrome, hemorrhage, and neutropenia significantly increased in patients treated with bevacizumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy. However, adding bevacizumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with increasing the incidences of grade ≥3 proteinuria, dyspnea, heart failure, peripheral neurotoxicity, thrombosis, thrombocytopenia, fatigue, leucopenia, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea. Conclusion and Relevance: Adding bevacizumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy to treat HER2-negative breast cancer patients increased adverse events. However, most adverse events are clinically manageable. Patients, therefore, need to be monitored carefully for hypertension, left-ventricular dysfunction, mucositis, febrile neutropenia, infection, pain, hand-foot syndrome, hemorrhage, and neutropenia when treated with bevacizumab and neoadjuvant chemotherapy simultaneously.
