Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN),referring to the damage to the peripheral nerves caused by exposure to a neurotoxic chemotherapeutic agent, is a common side effect amongst patients undergoing chemotherapy. Paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) can lead to dose reduction or early cessation of chemotherapy, which is not conducive to patients'survival. Even after treatment is discontinued, PIPN symptoms carried a greater risk of worsening and plagued the patient's life, leading to long-term morbidity in survivors. Here, we summarize the research progress for clinical manifestations, risk factors, pathogenesis, prevention and treatment of PIPN, so as to embark on the path of preventing PIPN with prolongation of patient's life quality on a long-term basis.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) has yielded approximately 2.26 million new cases and has caused nearly 685,000 deaths worldwide in the last two years, making it the most common diagnosed cancer type in the world. BC is an intricate ecosystem formed by both the tumor microenvironment and malignant cells, and its heterogeneity impacts the response to treatment. Biomedical research has entered the era of massive omics data thanks to the high-throughput sequencing revolution, quick progress and widespread adoption. These technologies-liquid biopsy, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, metabolomics, pharmaco-omics and artificial intelligence imaging-could help researchers and clinicians to better understand the formation and evolution of BC. This review focuses on the findings of recent multi-omics-based research that has been applied to BC research, with an introduction to every omics technique and their applications for the different BC phenotypes, biomarkers, target therapies, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, to provide a comprehensive overview of the possibilities of BC research.

Abstract
Taxanes, particularly paclitaxel and docetaxel, are chemotherapeutic agents commonly used to treat breast cancers. A frequent side effect is chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) that occurs in up to 70% of all treated patients and impacts the quality of life during and after treatment. CIPN presents as glove and stocking sensory deficits and diminished motor and autonomic function. Nerves with longer axons are at higher risk of developing CIPN. The causes of CIPN are multifactorial and poorly understood, limiting treatment options. Pathophysiologic mechanisms can include: (i) disruptions of mitochondrial and intracellular microtubule functions, (ii) disruption of axon morphology, and (iii) activation of microglial and other immune cell responses, among others. Recent work has explored the contribution of genetic variation and selected epigenetic changes in response to taxanes for any insights into their relation to pathophysiologic mechanisms of CIPN20, with the hope of identifying predictive and targetable biomarkers. Although promising, many genetic studies of CIPN are inconsistent making it difficult to develop reliable biomarkers of CIPN. The aims of this narrative review are to benchmark available evidence and identify gaps in the understanding of the role genetic variation has in influencing paclitaxel's pharmacokinetics and cellular membrane transport potentially related to the development of CIPN.

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.

Pharmacogenetics of taxane-induced neurotoxicity in breast cancer: Systematic review and meta-analysis. Clin Transl Sci 2022; 15:2403-2436. [PMID: 35892315 PMCID: PMC9579387 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13370] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Taxane-based chemotherapy regimens are used as first-line treatment for breast cancer. Neurotoxicity, mainly taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN), remains the most important dose-limiting adverse event. Multiple genes may be associated with TIPN; however, the strength and direction of the association remain unclear. For this reason, we systematically reviewed observational studies of TIPN pharmacogenetic markers in breast cancer treatment. We conducted a systematic search of terms alluding to breast cancer, genetic markers, taxanes, and neurotoxicity in Ovid, ProQuest, PubMed, Scopus, Virtual Health, and Web of Science. We assessed the quality of evidence and bias profile. We extracted relevant variables and effect measures. Whenever possible, we performed random-effects gene meta-analyses and examined interstudy heterogeneity with meta-regression models and subgroup analyses. This study follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and STrengthening the REporting of Genetic Association Studies (STREGA) reporting guidance. A total of 42 studies with 19,431 participants were included. These evaluated 262 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across 121 genes. We conducted meta-analyses on 23 genes with 60 SNPs (19 studies and 6246 participants). Thirteen individual SNPs (ABCB1-rs2032582, ABCB1-rs3213619, BCL6/-rs1903216, /CAND1-rs17781082, CYP1B1-rs1056836, CYP2C8-rs10509681, CYP2C8-rs11572080, EPHA5-rs7349683, EPHA6-rs301927, FZD3-rs7001034, GSTP1-rs1138272, TUBB2A-rs9501929, and XKR4-rs4737264) and the overall SNPs' effect in four genes (CYP3A4, EphA5, GSTP1, and SLCO1B1) were statistically significantly associated with TIPN through meta-analysis. In conclusion, through systematic review and meta-analysis, we found that polymorphisms, and particularly 13 SNPs, are associated with TIPN, suggesting that genetics does play a role in interindividual predisposition. Further studies could potentially use these findings to develop individual risk profiles and guide decision making.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer death in low- and middle-income countries, in particular among sub-Saharan African women, where response to available anticancer treatment therapy is often limited by the recurrent breast tumours and metastasis, ultimately resulting in decreased overall survival rate. This can also be attributed to African genomes that contain more variation than those from other parts of the world. The purpose of this review is to summarize published evidence on pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic aspects related to specific available treatments and the known genetic variabilities associated with metabolism and/or transport of breast cancer drugs, and treatment outcomes when possible. The emphasis is on the African genetic variation and focuses on the genes with the highest strength of evidence, with a close look on CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5, CYP19A1, UGT1A4, UGT2B7, UGT2B15, SLC22A16, SLC38A7, FcγR, DPYD, ABCB1, and SULT1A1, which are the genes known to play major roles in the metabolism and/or elimination of the respective anti-breast cancer drugs given to the patients. The genetic variability of their metabolism could be associated with different metabolic phenotypes that may cause reduced patients’ adherence because of toxicity or sub-therapeutic doses. Finally, this knowledge enhances possible personalized treatment approaches, with the possibility of improving survival outcomes in patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is a powerful tool to predict individual response to treatment, in order to personalize therapy, and it has been explored extensively in oncology practice. Not only efficacy on the malignant disease has been investigated but also the possibility to predict adverse effects due to drug administration. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) is one of those. This potentially severe and long-lasting/permanent side effect of commonly administered anticancer drugs can severely impair quality of life (QoL) in a large cohort of long survival patients. So far, a pharmacogenomics-based approach in CIPN regard has been quite delusive, making a methodological improvement warranted in this field of interest: even the most refined genetic analysis cannot be effective if not applied correctly. Here we try to devise why it is so, suggesting how THE "bench-side" (pharmacogenomics) might benefit from and should cooperate with THE "bed-side" (clinimetrics), in order to make genetic profiling effective if applied to CIPN.

Abstract
Introduction: Taxanes are a class of chemotherapeutics commonly used to treat various solid tumors, including breast and ovarian cancers. Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) occurs in up to 70% of patients, impacting quality of life both during and after treatment. TIPN typically manifests as tingling and numbness in the hands and feet and can cause irreversible loss of function of peripheral nerves. TIPN can be dose-limiting, potentially impacting clinical outcomes. The mechanisms underlying TIPN are poorly understood. As such, there are limited treatment options and no tools to provide early detection of those who will develop TIPN. Although some patients may have a genetic predisposition, genetic biomarkers have been inconsistent in predicting chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Moreover, other molecular markers (eg, metabolites, mRNA, miRNA, proteins) may be informative for predicting CIPN, but remain largely unexplored. We anticipate that combinations of multiple biomarkers will be required to consistently predict those who will develop TIPN. Methods: To address this clinical gap of identifying patients at risk of TIPN, we initiated the Genetics and Inflammatory Markers for CIPN (GENIE) study. This longitudinal multicenter observational study uses a novel, multimodal approach to evaluate genomic variation, metabolites, DNA methylation, gene expression, and circulating cytokines/chemokines prior to, during, and after taxane treatment in 400 patients with breast cancer. Molecular and patient reported data will be collected prior to, during, and after taxane therapy. Multi-modal data will be used to develop a set of comprehensive predictive biomarker signatures of TIPN. Conclusion: The goal of this study is to enable early detection of patients at risk of developing TIPN, provide a tool to modify taxane treatment to minimize morbidity from TIPN, and improved patient quality of life. Here we provide a brief review of the current state of research into CIPN and TIPN and introduce the GENIE study design.

Abstract
Taxanes and epothilones are chemotherapeutic agents that ultimately lead to cell death through inhibition of normal microtubular function. This review summarizes the literature demonstrating their current use and potential promise as therapeutic agents in the treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), as well as putative mechanisms of resistance. Historically, taxanes have become the standard of care in the front-line and recurrent treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer. In the past few years, epothilones (i.e., ixabepilone) have become of interest as they may retain activity in taxane-treated patients since they harbor several features that may overcome mechanisms of taxane resistance. Clinical data now support the use of ixabepilone in the treatment of platinum-resistant or refractory ovarian cancer. Clinical data strongly support the use of microtubule-interfering drugs alone or in combination in the treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer. Ongoing clinical trials will shed further light into the potential of making these drugs part of current standard practice.

Genetic variants predictive of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy symptoms in gynecologic cancer survivors. Gynecol Oncol 2021; 163:578-582.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify genetic variants associated with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) symptoms among gynecologic cancer survivors and determine the variants' predictive power in addition to age and clinical factors at time of diagnosis. METHODS Participants of a prospective cohort study on gynecologic cancers provided a DNA saliva sample and reported CIPN symptoms (FACT/GOG-Ntx). Genotyping of 23 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously identified as related to platinum- or taxane-induced neuropathy was performed using iPLEX Gold method. Risk allele carrier frequencies of 19 SNPs that passed quality checks were compared between those with/without high CIPN symptoms using logistic regression, adjusting for age. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves using clinical risk factors (age, diabetes, BMI, Charlson Comorbidity Index, previous cancer diagnosis) with and without the identified SNPs were compared. RESULTS 107 individuals received platinum or taxane-based chemotherapy and provided sufficient DNA for analysis. Median age was 65.1 years; 39.6% had obesity and 8.4% diabetes; most had ovarian (58.9%) or uterine cancer (29.0%). Two SNPs were significantly associated with high CIPN symptomatology: rs3753753 in GPX7, OR = 2.55 (1.13, 5.72) and rs139887 in SOX10, 2.66 (1.18, 6.00). Including these two SNPs in a model with clinical characteristics led to an improved AUC for CIPN symptomatology (0.65 vs. 0.74, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Genetic and clinical characteristics were predictive of higher CIPN symptomatology in gynecologic cancer survivors, and combining these factors resulted in superior predictive power compared with a model with clinical factors only. Prospective validation and assessment of clinical utility are warranted.

J Peripher Nerv Syst 2020; 24 Suppl 2:S40-S51.

Abstract
Taxane-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (TIPN) is the most common non-hematological side effect of taxane-based chemotherapy, and may result in dose reductions and discontinuations, having as such a detrimental effect on patients' overall survival. Epothilones share similar mechanism of action with taxanes. The typical TIPN clinical presentation is mainly comprised of numbness and paresthesia, in a stocking-and-glove distribution and may progress more proximally over time, with paclitaxel being more neurotoxic than docetaxel. Motor and autonomic involvement is less common, whereas an acute taxane-induced acute pain syndrome is frequent. Patient reported outcomes questionnaires, clinical evaluation, and instrumental tools offer complementary information in TIPN. Its electrodiagnostic features include reduced/abolished sensory action potentials, and less prominent motor involvement, in keeping with a length-dependent, axonal dying back predominately sensory neuropathy. TIPN is dose-dependent and may be reversible within months after the end of chemotherapy. The single and cumulative delivered dose of taxanes is considered the main risk factor of TIPN development. Apart from the cumulative dose, other risk factors for TIPN include demographic, clinical, and pharmacogenetic features with several single-nucleotide polymorphisms potentially linked with increased susceptibility of TIPN. There are currently no neuroprotective strategies to reduce the risk of TIPN, and symptomatic treatments are very limited. This review critically examines the pathogenesis, incidence, risk factors (both clinical and pharmacogenetic), clinical phenotype and management of TIPN.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most prevalent types of cancer worldwide with high morbidity and mortality rates. Treatment modalities include systemic therapy, in which chemotherapy is a major component in many cases. Several chemotherapeutic agents are used in combinations or as single agents with many adverse events occurring in variable frequencies. These events can be a significant barrier in completing the treatment regimens. Germline genomic variants are thought of as potential determinants in chemotherapy response and the development of side effects. Some pharmacogenomic studies were designed to explore germline variants that can be used as biomarkers for predicting developing toxicity or adverse events during chemotherapy in BC. In this review, we reassess and summarize the major findings of pharmacogenomic studies of chemotherapy toxicity during BC management. In addition, deficiencies hampering utilizing these findings and the potential targets of future research are emphasized. Main insufficiencies in toxicity pharmacogenomics studies originate from study design, sample limitations, heterogeneity of selected genes, variants, and toxicity definitions. With the advent of high throughput genotyping techniques, researchers are expected to explore the identified as well as the potential genetic biomarkers of toxicity and efficacy to improve BC management. However, to achieve this, the limitations of previous work should be evaluated and avoided to reach more conclusive and translatable evidence for personalizing BC chemotherapy.

Abstract
Paclitaxel (Brand name Taxol) is widely used in the treatment of common cancers like breast, ovarian and lung cancer. Although highly effective in blocking tumor progression, paclitaxel also causes peripheral neuropathy as a side effect in 60-70% of chemotherapy patients. Recent efforts by numerous labs have aimed at defining the underlying mechanisms of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN). In vitro models using rodent dorsal root ganglion neurons, human induced pluripotent stem cells, and rodent in vivo models have revealed a number of molecular pathways affected by paclitaxel within axons of sensory neurons and within other cell types, such as the immune system and peripheral glia, as well skin. These studies revealed that paclitaxel induces altered calcium signaling, neuropeptide and growth factor release, mitochondrial damage and reactive oxygen species formation, and can activate ion channels that mediate responses to extracellular cues. Recent studies also suggest a role for the matrix-metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13) in mediating neuropathy. These diverse changes may be secondary to paclitaxel-induced microtubule transport impairment. Human genetic studies, although still limited, also highlight the involvement of cytoskeletal changes in PIPN. Newly identified molecular targets resulting from these studies could provide the basis for the development of therapies with which to either prevent or reverse paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in chemotherapy patients.

Polymorphisms of CYP2C8 Alter First-Electron Transfer Kinetics and Increase Catalytic Uncoupling. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20184626.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8) epoxygenase is responsible for the metabolism of over 60 clinically relevant drugs, notably the anticancer drug Taxol (paclitaxel, PAC). Specifically, there are naturally occurring polymorphisms, CYP2C8*2 and CYP2C8*3, that display altered PAC hydroxylation rates despite these mutations not being located in the active site. Herein, we demonstrate that these polymorphisms result in a greater uncoupling of PAC metabolism by increasing the amount of hydrogen peroxide formed per PAC turnover. Anaerobic stopped-flow measurements determined that these polymorphisms have altered first electron transfer kinetics, compared to CYP2C8*1 (wildtype), that suggest electron transfer from cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) is disfavored. Therefore, these data demonstrate that these polymorphisms affect the catalytic cycle of CYP2C8 and suggest that redox interactions with CPR are disrupted.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating condition associated with a number of chemotherapeutic agents. Drugs commonly implicated in the development of CIPN include platinum agents, taxanes, vinca alkaloids, bortezomib, and thalidomide analogues. As a drug response can vary between individuals, it is hypothesized that an individual's specific genetic variants could impact the regulation of genes involved in drug pharmacokinetics, ion channel functioning, neurotoxicity, and DNA repair, which in turn affect CIPN development and severity. Variations of other molecular markers may also affect the incidence and severity of CIPN. Hence, the objective of this review was to summarize the known biological (molecular and genomic) predictors of CIPN and discuss the means to facilitate progress in this field.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics studies have identified several allelic variants with the potential to reduce toxicity and improve treatment outcome. The present study was designed to determine if such findings are reproducible in a heterogenous population of patients with lung cancer undergoing therapy with paclitaxel. We designed a prospective multi-institutional study that recruited n = 103 patients receiving paclitaxel therapy with a 5-year follow up. All patients were genotyped using the Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters (DMET) platform, which ascertains 1931 genotypes in 235 genes. Progression-free survival (PFS) of paclitaxel therapy and clinically-significant paclitaxel toxicities were classified and compared according to genotype. Initial screening revealed eleven variants that are associated with PFS. Of these, seven variants in ABCB11 (rs4148768), ABCC3 (rs1051640), ABCG1 (rs1541290), CYP8B1 (rs735320), NR3C1 (rs6169), FMO6P (rs7889839), and GSTM3 (rs7483) were associated with paclitaxel PFS in a multivariate analysis accounting for clinical covariates. Multivariate analysis revealed four SNPs in VKORC1 (rs2884737), SLC22A14 (rs4679028), GSTA2 (rs6577), and DCK (rs4643786) were associated with paclitaxel toxicities. With the exception of a variant in VKORC1, the present study did not find the same genetic outcome associations of other published research on pharmacogenetics variants that affect paclitaxel outcomes. This finding suggests that prior pharmacogenomics research findings may not be reproduced in the most frequently-diagnosed malignancy, lung cancer.

Abstract
AIM First, evaluate if patients carrying putatively diminished activity CYP2C8 genotype have longer paclitaxel exposure (e.g., time above threshold concentration of 0.05 μM [Tc >0.05]). Second, screen additional pharmacogenes for associations with Tc >0.05. Methods: Pharmacogene panel genotypes were translated into genetic phenotypes for associations with Tc >0.05 (n = 58). RESULTS Patients with predicted low-activity CYP2C8 had shorter Tc >0.05 after adjustment for age, body surface area and race (9.65 vs 11.03 hrs, β = 5.47, p = 0.02). This association was attributed to CYP2C8*3 (p = 0.006), not CYP2C8*4 (p = 0.58). Patients with predicted low-activity SLCO1B1 had longer Tc >0.05 (12.12 vs 10.15 hrs, β = 0.85, p = 0.012). CONCLUSION Contrary to previous publications, CYP2C8*3 may confer increased paclitaxel metabolic activity. SLCO1B1 and CYP2C8 genotype may explain some paclitaxel pharmacokinetic variability.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common side effect of taxane treatment during chemotherapy. Identifying predictive biomarkers of CIPN would allow physicians to alter treatment given to patients according to a personal risk of developing this condition. The current literature on CIPN biomarkers is reviewed, identifying biomarkers which have been found to be significantly related to CIPN. Three genetic biomarkers are identified (ARHGEF10 rs9657362, CYP2C8 rs11572080/rs10509681 and FGD4 rs10771973) which have been found to act as predictive CIPN biomarkers in multiple studies. Possible mechanisms underlying the relationship between these single nucleotide polymorphisms and CIPN development are explored. The biomarkers identified in this study should be investigated further to generate predictive biomarkers that may be used in a clinical setting.

Abstract
In the era of personalized medicine, high-throughput technologies have allowed the investigation of genetic variations underlying the inter-individual variability in drug pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics. Several studies have recently moved from a candidate gene-based pharmacogenetic approach to genome-wide pharmacogenomic analyses to identify biomarkers for selection of patient-tailored therapies. In this aim, the identification of genetic variants affecting the individual drug metabolism is relevant for the definition of more active and less toxic treatments. This review focuses on the potentiality, reliability and limitations of the DMET™ (Drug Metabolism Enzymes and Transporters) Plus as pharmacogenomic drug metabolism multi-gene panel platform for selecting biomarkers in the final aim to optimize drugs use and characterize the individual genetic background.

Abstract
Backbone: Paclitaxel and docetaxel are the primary taxane anticancer drugs regularly used to treat, breast, gastric, ovarian, head/neck, lung, and genitourinary neoplasm. Suspension of taxane treatments compromising patient benefits is more frequently caused by peripheral neuropathy and allergy, than to tumor progression. Several strategies for preventing toxicity have been investigated so far. Recently, findings on the genetic variants associated with toxicity and resistance to taxane-based chemotherapy have been reported. Methods: An extensive panel of five polymorphisms on four candidate genes (ABCB1, CYP2C8*3, CYP3A4*1B, XRCC3), previously validated as significant markers related to paclitaxel and Docetaxel toxicity, are analyzed and discussed. We genotyped 76 cancer patients, and 35 of them received paclitaxel or docetaxel-based therapy. What is more, an early outline evaluation of the genotyping costs and benefit was assessed. Results: Out of 35 patients treated with a taxane, six (17.1%) had adverse neuropathy events. Pharmacogenomics analysis showed no correlation between candidate gene polymorphisms and toxicity, except for the XRCC3 AG+GG allele [OR 2.61 (95% CI: 0.91–7.61)] which showed a weak significant trend of risk of neurotoxicities vs. the AG allele [OR 1.52 (95% CI: 0.51–4.91)] P = 0.03. Summary: Based on our experimental results and data from the literature, we propose a useful and low-cost genotyping panel assay for the prevention of toxicity in patients undergoing taxane-based therapy. With the individual pharmacogenomics profile, clinicians will have additional information to plan the better treatment for their patients to minimize toxicity and maximize benefits, including determining cost-effectiveness for national healthcare sustainability.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) can adversely affect completion of systemic anti-cancer treatment and cause long-term morbidity. Increasingly pharmacogenetic studies have been performed to explore susceptibility to this important adverse effect. A systematic review was conducted to identify pharmacogenetic studies, assess their quality and findings and undertake meta-analysis where possible. 93 studies were included. Notable methodological issues included lack of standardisation and detail in phenotype definition and acknowledgement of potential confounding factors. Insufficient data was presented in many studies meaning only a minority could be included in meta-analysis showing mainly non-significant effects. Nonetheless, SNPs in CYP2C8, CYP3A4, ARHGEF10, EPHA and TUBB2A genes (taxanes), FARS2, ACYP2 and TAC1 (oxaliplatin), and CEP75 and CYP3A5 (vincristine) are of potential interest. These require exploration in large cohort studies with robust methodology and well-defined phenotypes. Seeking standardisation of phenotype, collaboration and subsequently, individual-patient-data meta-analysis may facilitate identifying contributory SNPs which could be combined in a polygenic risk score to predict those most at risk of CIPN.

Abstract
Purpose: Neuropathy is the dose-limiting toxicity of paclitaxel and a major cause for decreased quality of life. Genetic factors have been shown to contribute to paclitaxel neuropathy susceptibility; however, the major causes for interindividual differences remain unexplained. In this study, we identified genetic markers associated with paclitaxel-induced neuropathy through massive sequencing of candidate genes.Experimental Design: We sequenced the coding region of 4 EPHA genes, 5 genes involved in paclitaxel pharmacokinetics, and 30 Charcot-Marie-Tooth genes, in 228 cancer patients with no/low neuropathy or high-grade neuropathy during paclitaxel treatment. An independent validation series included 202 paclitaxel-treated patients. Variation-/gene-based analyses were used to compare variant frequencies among neuropathy groups, and Cox regression models were used to analyze neuropathy along treatment.Results: Gene-based analysis identified EPHA6 as the gene most significantly associated with paclitaxel-induced neuropathy. Low-frequency nonsynonymous variants in EPHA6 were present exclusively in patients with high neuropathy, and all affected the ligand-binding domain of the protein. Accumulated dose analysis in the discovery series showed a significantly higher neuropathy risk for EPHA5/6/8 low-frequency nonsynonymous variant carriers [HR, 14.60; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.33-91.62; P = 0.0042], and an independent cohort confirmed an increased neuropathy risk (HR, 2.07; 95% CI, 1.14-3.77; P = 0.017). Combining the series gave an estimated 2.5-fold higher risk of neuropathy (95% CI, 1.46-4.31; P = 9.1 × 10-4).Conclusions: This first study sequencing EPHA genes revealed that low-frequency variants in EPHA6, EPHA5, and EPHA8 contribute to the susceptibility to paclitaxel-induced neuropathy. Furthermore, EPHA's neuronal injury repair function suggests that these genes might constitute important neuropathy markers for many neurotoxic drugs. Clin Cancer Res; 23(5); 1227-35. ©2016 AACR.

Abstract
During the last 10-15 years, cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 has emerged as an important drug-metabolizing enzyme. CYP2C8 is highly expressed in human liver and is known to metabolize more than 100 drugs. CYP2C8 substrate drugs include amodiaquine, cerivastatin, dasabuvir, enzalutamide, imatinib, loperamide, montelukast, paclitaxel, pioglitazone, repaglinide, and rosiglitazone, and the number is increasing. Similarly, many drugs have been identified as CYP2C8 inhibitors or inducers. In vivo, already a small dose of gemfibrozil, i.e., 10% of its therapeutic dose, is a strong, irreversible inhibitor of CYP2C8. Interestingly, recent findings indicate that the acyl-β-glucuronides of gemfibrozil and clopidogrel cause metabolism-dependent inactivation of CYP2C8, leading to a strong potential for drug interactions. Also several other glucuronide metabolites interact with CYP2C8 as substrates or inhibitors, suggesting that an interplay between CYP2C8 and glucuronides is common. Lack of fully selective and safe probe substrates, inhibitors, and inducers challenges execution and interpretation of drug-drug interaction studies in humans. Apart from drug-drug interactions, some CYP2C8 genetic variants are associated with altered CYP2C8 activity and exhibit significant interethnic frequency differences. Herein, we review the current knowledge on substrates, inhibitors, inducers, and pharmacogenetics of CYP2C8, as well as its role in clinically relevant drug interactions. In addition, implications for selection of CYP2C8 marker and perpetrator drugs to investigate CYP2C8-mediated drug metabolism and interactions in preclinical and clinical studies are discussed.

Abstract
The objective of the present study is to identify significant genes and pathways associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by systematically tracking the dysregulated modules of re-weighted protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Firstly, normal and HCC PPI networks were inferred and re-weighted based on Pearson correlation coefficient. Next, modules in the PPI networks were explored by a clique-merging algorithm, and disrupted modules were identified utilizing a maximum weight bipartite matching in non-increasing order. Then, the gene compositions of the disrupted modules were studied and compared with differentially expressed (DE) genes, and pathway enrichment analysis for these genes was performed based on Expression Analysis Systematic Explorer. Finally, validations of significant genes in HCC were conducted using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) analysis. The present study evaluated 394 disrupted module pairs, which comprised 236 dysregulated genes. When the dysregulated genes were compared with 211 DE genes, a total of 26 common genes [including phospholipase C beta 1, cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 and CYP2B6] were obtained. Furthermore, 6 of these 26 common genes were validated by RT-qPCR. Pathway enrichment analysis of dysregulated genes demonstrated that neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, purine and drug metabolism, and metabolism of xenobiotics mediated by CYP were significantly disrupted pathways. In conclusion, the present study greatly improved the understanding of HCC in a systematic manner and provided potential biomarkers for early detection and novel therapeutic methods.

A comparison of DMET Plus microarray and genome-wide technologies by assessing population substructure. Pharmacogenet Genomics 2016; 26:147-153.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The capacity of the Affymetrix drug metabolism enzymes and transporters (DMET) Plus pharmacogenomics genotyping chip to estimate population substructure and cryptic relatedness was evaluated. The results were compared with estimates using genome-wide HapMap data for the same individuals. METHODS For 301 unrelated individuals, spanning three continental populations and one admixed population, genotypic data were collected using the Affymetrix DMET Plus microarray. Genome-wide data on these individuals were obtained from HapMap release 3. Population substructure was assessed using Eigenstrat and ADMIXTURE software for both platforms. Cryptic relatedness was explored by inbreeding coefficient estimation. Nonparametric tests were used to determine correlations of the analytical results of the two genotyping platforms. RESULTS Principal components analysis identified population substructure for both datasets, with 15.8 and 16.6% of the total variance explained in the first two principal components for DMET Plus and HapMap data, respectively. ADMIXTURE results correctly identified four subpopulations within each dataset. Nonparametric rank correlations indicated significant associations between analyses with an average ρ=0.7272 (P<10) across the three continental populations and ρ=0.4888 for the admixed population. Concordance correlation coefficients (average ρc=0.9693 across all four subpopulations) strongly indicate concordance between ADMIXTURE results. Inbreeding coefficients were slightly inflated (16 individuals>0.15) using DMET Plus data and no cryptic relatedness was indicated using HapMap data. The inflated inbreeding estimation could be because of the limited number of markers provided by DMET as a random sample of 1832 markers from HapMap also yielded inflated estimates of cryptic relatedness (39 individuals>0.15). Furthermore, use of single nucleotide polymorphisms located in genes involved in metabolism and transport may have different allele frequencies in subpopulations than single nucleotide polymorphisms sampled from the whole genome. CONCLUSION The DMET Plus pharmacogenomics genotyping chip is effective in quantifying population substructure across the three continental populations and inferring the presence of an admixed population. On the basis of our results, these microarrays offer sufficient depth for covariate adjustment of population substructure in genomic association studies.

Abstract
Paclitaxel‐induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) cannot be predicted from clinical parameters and might have a pharmacogenomic basis. Previous studies identified single nucleotide variants (SNV) associated with PIPN. However, only a subset of findings has been confirmed to date in more than one study, suggesting a need for further re‐testing and validation in additional clinical cohorts. Candidate PIPN‐associated SNVs were identified from the literature. SNVs were retested in 119 patients selected by extreme phenotyping from 269 in NCCTG N08C1 (Alliance) as previously reported. SNV genotyping was performed by a combination of short‐read sequencing analysis and Taqman PCR. These 22 candidate PIPN SNVs were genotyped. Two of these, rs7349683 in the EPHA5 and rs3213619 in ABCB1 were found to be significantly associated with PIPN with an Odds ratios OR = 2.07 (P = 0.02) and OR = 0.12 (P = 0.03), respectively. In addition, three SNVs showed a trend toward a risk‐ or protective effect that was consistent with previous reports. The rs10509681 and rs11572080 in the gene CYP2C8*3 showed risk effect with an OR = 1.49 and rs1056836 in CYP1B1 showed a protective effect with an OR = 0.66. None of the other results supported the previously reported associations, including some SNVs displaying an opposite direction of effect from previous reports, including rs1058930 in CYP2C8, rs17222723 and rs8187710 in ABCC2, rs10771973 in FGD4, rs16916932 in CACNB2 and rs16948748 in PITPNA. Alliance N08C1 validated or supported a minority of previously reported SNV‐PIPN associations. Associations previously reported by multiple studies appeared to have a higher likelihood to be validated by Alliance N08C1.

Abstract
Genetic variations in patients have strong impact on their drug therapies and responses because the variations may contribute to the efficacy and/or produce undesirable side effects for any given drug. The Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters (DMET) assay is a high-throughput technology by Affymetrix that is able to simultaneously genotype variants in multiple genes involved in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs for subsequent clinical applications, i.e., the assay allows for a precise genetic map that can guide therapeutic interventions and avoid side effects.

Abstract
As there are increasing numbers of cancer survivors, more attention is being paid to the long term unwanted effects patients may experience as a result of their treatment and the impact these side effects can have on their quality of life. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is one of the most common long-term toxicities from chemotherapy. In this review we will briefly review the clinical presentation, evaluation and management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, with a focus on CIPN related to platinum and taxane agents. We will then discuss current clinical models of peripheral neuropathy and ongoing research to better understand CIPN and develop potential treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Host genetic variability has been implicated in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). A dose-limiting toxicity for chemotherapy agents, CIPN is also a debilitating condition that may progress to chronic neuropathic pain. We utilized a bioinformatics approach, which captures the complexity of intracellular and intercellular interactions, to identify genes for CIPN. METHODS Using genes pooled from the literature as a starting point, we used Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to generate gene networks for CIPN. RESULTS We performed IPA core analysis for genes associated with platinum-, taxane- and platinum-taxane-induced neuropathy. We found that IL6, TNF, CXCL8, IL1B and ERK1/2 were the top genes in terms of the number of connections in platinum-induced neuropathy and TP53, MYC, PARP1, P38 MAPK and TNF for combined taxane-platinum-induced neuropathy. CONCLUSION Neurotoxicity is common in cancer patients treated with platinum compounds and anti-microtubule agents and CIPN is one of the debilitating sequela. The bioinformatic approach helped identify genes associated with CIPN in cancer patients.

Functional characterization of 12 allelic variants of CYP2C8 by assessment of paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylation and amodiaquine N-deethylation. Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2015; 30:366-73. [PMID: 26427316 DOI: 10.1016/j.dmpk.2015.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2015] [Revised: 07/14/2015] [Accepted: 07/21/2015] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8) is one of the enzymes primarily responsible for the metabolism of many drugs, including paclitaxel and amodiaquine. CYP2C8 genetic variants contribute to interindividual variations in the therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of paclitaxel. Although it is difficult to investigate the enzymatic function of most CYP2C8 variants in vivo, this can be investigated in vitro using recombinant CYP2C8 protein variants. The present study used paclitaxel to evaluate 6α-hydroxylase activity and amodiaquine for the N-deethylase activity of wild-type and 11 CYP2C8 variants resulting in amino acid substitutions in vitro. The wild-type and variant CYP2C8 proteins were heterologously expressed in COS-7 cells. Paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylation and amodiaquine N-deethylation activities were determined by measuring the concentrations of 6α-hydroxypaclitaxel and N-desethylamodiaquine, respectively, and the kinetic parameters were calculated. Compared to the wild-type enzyme (CYP2C8.1), CYP2C8.11 and CYP2C8.14 showed little or no activity with either substrate. In addition, the intrinsic clearance values of CYP2C8.8 and CYP2C8.13 for paclitaxel were 68% and 67% that of CYP2C8.1, respectively. In contrast, the CLint values of CYP2C8.2 and CYP2C8.12 were 1.4 and 1.9 times higher than that of CYP2C8.1. These comprehensive findings could inform for further genotype-phenotype studies on interindividual differences in CYP2C8-mediated drug metabolism.

Abstract
AIM The CYP2C8*3 allele has been suggested as a risk factor for paclitaxel-induced neuropathy but the data hitherto published are conflicting. MATERIALS & METHODS In total 435 patients were investigated with respect to maximum neuropathy grade and accumulated paclitaxel dose. The enzymatic properties of CYP2C8.3 variant were analyzed using heterologous mammalian HEK293 cell expression system. RESULTS No significant association between CYP2C8*3 allele and neuropathy was found, although a trend was observed. The paclitaxel and amodiaquine metabolism by CYP2C8.3 were found similar to CYP2C8.1, whereas CYP2C8.3 was more efficient in the metabolism of rosiglitazone. CONCLUSION These results indicate a difference in substrate specificity between CYP2C8.1 and CYP2C8.3; however, the CYP2C8*3 allele has no major impact on paclitaxel metabolism in vitro or of paclitaxel-induced neuropathy in vivo.

Abstract
A systematic review was performed to describe the findings from 19 genetic association studies that have examined the genetic variants underlying four common treatment-induced chronic and late toxicities in breast cancer patients, and to evaluate the quality of reporting. Three out of 5 studies found an association between HER2 lle655Val polymorphisms and trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity. Two studies found a positive association between cognitive impairment and the Val allele of the COMT gene and the ε4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene. Genetic associations were established between fatigue and the G/G genotype of IL6-174 and TNF-308, and the Met allele of the COMT gene in 4 studies. Among studies (N=8) that evaluated the genetic associations underlying peripheral neuropathy, CYP2C8∗3 variant is commonly reported as the associated gene. Most studies failed to conform to the major criteria listed in the STREGA guidelines, with a lack of transparent reporting of methods and results.
