Abstract
This study investigates the impact of Body Mass Index (BMI) on Quality of Life (QoL) and treatment outcomes in breast cancer (BC) patients, particularly focusing on underweight individuals with compromised nutritional status. A nonrandomized prospective study comprising 121 newly diagnosed patients across various BMI categories utilized FACT-B & FACIT-Sp-12 questionnaires. Follow-ups occurred at baseline, during (3rd and 6th), and after (12th month) anthracycline-taxane chemotherapy, either sequentially or concomitantly. Patients with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2; 53.7%) exhibited significantly poorer QoL, marked by compromised nutritional indicators (low MUAC and SFT). Repeated measures ANOVA identified significant correlations between BMI groups in functional, social, and emotional QoL aspects (p < 0.05), with no notable differences in other domains. A Chi-square (ꭓ2) test underscored a significant link between BMI and treatment response (p < 0.0001), showing higher rates of non-responders among underweight patients (p = 4.259e-14). The study advocates pretreatment consultation with a dietitian as standard care for Indian BC patients, offering complimentary nutritional support for improved QoL outcomes and treatment responses.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are membrane-spanning proteins involved in cholesterol homeostasis, transport of various molecules in and out of cells and organelles, oxidative stress, immune recognition, and drug efflux. They are long implicated in the development of multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy. Existing clinical and molecular evidence has also linked ABC transporters with cancer pathogenesis, prognostics, and therapy. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive update on all ABC transporters and their roles in drug resistance in breast cancer (BC). For solid tumours such as BC, various ABC transporters are highly expressed in less differentiated subtypes and metastases. ABCA1, ABCB1 and ABCG2 are key players in BC chemoresistance. Restraining these transporters has evolved as a possible mechanism to reverse this phenomenon. Further, ABCB1 and ABCC1 are important in BC prognosis. Newer therapeutic approaches have been developed to target all these molecules to dysregulate their effect, reduce cell viability, induce apoptosis, and increase drug sensitivity. In the future, targeted therapy for specific genetic variations and upstream or downstream molecules can help improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer (BC) is known as the most common malignancy in women. Environmental and genetic factors are associated with BC progression. Genetic polymorphisms have been reported as important risk factors of BC prognosis and drug response. Main body: Therefore, in the present review, we have summarized all single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which have been significantly associated with drug response in BC patients around the world. We have also categorized the reported SNPs based on their related genes functions to clarify the molecular biology of drug responses in BC. CONCLUSION The majority of SNPs were reported in detoxifying enzymes, which introduced such genes as the main genetic risk factors during BC drug responses. This review paves the way for introducing a prognostic panel of SNPs for the BC patients in the world.

Abstract
Background. Personalized therapy is becoming increasingly popular in oncological scenarios, not only based on molecular pharmacological targets, but also preventing any drug–drug–gene interaction (DDGI), which could lead to severe toxicities. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the individual germline sequence variations in genes involved in drug metabolism, are correlated to interindividual response to drugs and explain both efficacy and toxicity profiles reported by patients. Case presentation. We present the case of a woman suffering from triple-positive breast cancer; she had early-stage disease at the onset and after four years developed metastatic disease. During her history, she presented different toxicities due to antineoplastic treatments. Particularly, hypertransaminasemia was found during every line of treatment. Nevertheless, we were able to guarantee the patient an excellent therapeutic adhesion thanks to the supportive treatments and the reduction of drug dosage. Moreover, we conducted a simultaneous analysis of the patient’s biochemical and genomic data thanks to Drug-PIN software, and we found several significant SNPs of the main enzymes and transporters involved in drug metabolism. Conclusion. Our case report demonstrated the relevance of DDGI in clinical practice management of a patient treated for advanced breast cancer, suggesting the role of Drug-PIN software as an easy-to-use tool to prevent adverse events during cancer treatment and to help physicians in therapeutic algorithms. However, further studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Temozolomide (TMZ), an alkylating agent with a broad-spectrum antitumor activity, ability to cross blood-brain barrier (BBB), shown to be effective against malignant glioma. This study aims to investigate the effect of 1236C>T (rs1128503) single-nucleotide gene polymorphisms of ABCB1 (MDR1) in north-Indian patients diagnosed with glioma undergoing TMZ-based chemoradiotherapy. Genotyping was performed in 100 patients diagnosed with malignant glioma (50 anaplastic astrocytoma (AA) patients and 50 glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients) and 150 age and sex-matched controls by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) method, followed by sanger sequencing. TMZ plasma levels were analyzed by reverse phase HPLC method. Glioma patient's survival time was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier's curve. Results of MDR1 gene 1236C>T polymorphism showed significant allelic and genotypic frequency association between glioma patients and controls. The plasma TMZ levels between metabolizers group in Grade III and Grade IV were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). The mutant genotype (TT) has less survival benefit compared with other genotypes (CT/CC) and the survival difference between AA and GBM was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). Though CT and TT polymorphisms have significant association with lower TMZ levels in both Grade III (AA) and IV (GBM) tumors, the survival difference seems to be mainly among patients with Grade III tumors. Our findings suggest that the MDR1 gene polymorphism plays a role in plasma TMZ levels and in survival time of glioma patients and, hence, TMZ therapy in malignant glioma can be predicted by genotyping MDR1 (1236C>T) gene polymorphism.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in adult women aged 20 to 50 years. The therapeutic regimens that are commonly recommended to treat breast cancer are human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) targeted therapy, endocrine therapy, and systemic chemotherapy. The selection of pharmacotherapy is based on the characteristics of the tumor and its hormone receptor status, specifically, the presence of HER2, progesterone receptors, and estrogen receptors. Breast cancer pharmacotherapy often gives different results in various populations, which may cause therapeutic failure. Different types of congenital drug resistance in individuals can cause this. Genetic polymorphism is a factor in the occurrence of congenital drug resistance. This review explores the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and resistance to breast cancer therapy. It considers studies published from 2010 to 2020 concerning the relationship of genetic polymorphisms and breast cancer therapy. Several gene polymorphisms are found to be related to longer overall survival, worse relapse-free survival, higher pathological complete response, and increased disease-free survival in breast cancer patients. The presence of these gene polymorphisms can be considered in the treatment of breast cancer in order to shape personalized therapy to yield better results.

Abstract
There has been substantial interest in the impact of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter variability on breast cancer drug resistance. Here, we provide a systematic review of ABC variants in breast cancer therapy. Notably, most studies used small heterogeneous cohorts and their identified associations lack statistical stringency, replication and mechanistic support. We conclude that commonly studied ABC polymorphisms are not suitable to accurately predict therapy response or toxicity in breast cancer patients and cannot guide treatment decisions. However, recent research shows that ABC transporters harbor a plethora of rare variants with individually small effect sizes, and we argue that a shift in strategy from target variant interrogation to comprehensive profiling might hold promise to drastically improve the predictive power of outcome models.

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
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters constitute a superfamily of 48 structurally similar membrane transporters that mediate the ATP-dependent cellular export of a plethora of endogenous and xenobiotic substances. Importantly, genetic variants in ABC genes that affect gene function have clinically important effects on drug disposition and can be predictors of the risk of adverse drug reactions and efficacy of chemotherapeutics, calcium channel blockers, and protease inhibitors. Furthermore, loss-of-function of ABC transporters is associated with a variety of congenital disorders. Despite their clinical importance, information about the frequencies and global distribution of functionally relevant ABC variants is limited and little is known about the overall genetic complexity of this important gene family. Here, we systematically mapped the genetic landscape of the entire human ABC superfamily using Next-Generation Sequencing data from 138,632 individuals across seven major populations. Overall, we identified 62,793 exonic variants, 98.5% of which were rare. By integrating five computational prediction algorithms with structural mapping approaches using experimentally determined crystal structures, we found that the functional ABC variability is extensive and highly population-specific. Every individual harbored between 9.3 and 13.9 deleterious ABC variants, 76% of which were found only in a single population. Carrier rates of pathogenic variants in ABC transporter genes associated with autosomal recessive congenital diseases, such as cystic fibrosis or pseudoxanthoma elasticum, closely mirrored the corresponding population-specific disease prevalence, thus providing a novel resource for rare disease epidemiology. Combined, we provide the most comprehensive, systematic, and consolidated overview of ethnogeographic ABC transporter variability with important implications for personalized medicine, clinical genetics, and precision public health.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Variable response to docetaxel-based neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in breast cancer patients had been reported. Genetic polymorphisms in the ABCB1 gene coding for the efflux transporter MDR1 (P-glycoprotein, P-gp) could result in altered tumour response. Hence, this study was proposed to assess the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ABCB1 gene on tumour response in locally advanced breast cancer patients (LABC) of South India who have a distinct genetic makeup. METHODS Out of 162 LABC patients recruited, 129 patients were included for the final analysis. DNA was extracted by "phenol-chloroform extraction method" from the WBCs, and genotyping for SNPs rs1045642 (C3435T) and rs1128503 (C1236T) in ABCB1 gene was performed with real-time PCR system using validated TaqMan® SNP genotyping assay method. Tumour response was assessed by RECIST criteria based on the MRIs taken before and after completion of four cycles of docetaxel therapy. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A total of 102 (79.1%) patients were found to be responders and 27 (20.9%) patients were found to be non-responders to docetaxel therapy. Patients with "CT/TT" genotypes (response rate: 83.3%) of ABCB1 (C1236T) gene showed better tumour response than those with "CC" genotype (response rate: 16.6%) [OR = 2.94 (CI: 1.15-7.52); P = 0.03]. However, on performing binary logistic regression, neither the studied SNPs nor the non-genetic factors like age, BMI, postmenopausal status, laterality of the tumour, ER status, PR status and Her-2/neu status were found to be associated with tumour response to docetaxel (P > 0.05). WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION The tumour response to docetaxel was significantly influenced by the SNP C1236T of ABCB1 gene coding for the P-gp. However, when adjusted for other non-genetic factors, neither of the ABCB1 variants were found to be associated with tumour response to docetaxel-based NACT in LABC patients of South India.

ABCB1 gene polymorphisms and response to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients: A meta-analysis. Surg Oncol 2017; 26:473-482.

Abstract
The ABCB1 gene encodes the P-glycoprotein, an efflux pump for some antineoplastic agents which acts as a resistance mechanism to chemotherapy. Three SNPs (C3435T, C1236T and G2677T/A), are the most widely studied in ABCB1. The inconsistent conclusions about the association of these polymorphisms and the response to chemotherapy in breast cancer (BC) patients prompted us to conduct a meta-analysis. A total of nine (770 patients), five (566 patients) and three studies (367 patients) relating the ABCB1 C3435T, C1236T and G2677T/A polymorphisms respectively, were included. The main analysis revealed a lack of association between ABCB1 polymorphisms and response to chemotherapy in every genetic model: C3435T (dominant OR: 0.888; 95%CI: 0.558-1.413), C1236T (dominant OR: 1.968; 95%CI: 0.609-6.362) and G2677T/A (GG vs GT + GA + TT + TA + AA OR: 0.854; 95%CI: 0.418-1.744). Stratification by ethnicity, cancer type and response criteria did not change the pattern of results. The available evidence indicates that three polymorphisms within ABCB1; C3435T, C1236T and G2677T/A, cannot be considered a reliable predictor of response to chemotherapy in BC patients.

Despite the advances that have taken place in the past decade, including the development of novel molecular targeted agents, cytotoxic chemotherapy remains the mainstay of cancer treatment. In breast cancer, anthracyclines and taxanes are the two main chemotherapeutic options used on a routine basis. Although effective, their usefulness is limited by the inevitable development of resistance, a lack of response to drug-induced cancer cell death. A large body of research has resulted in the characterization of a plethora of mechanisms involved in resistance; ATP-binding cassette transporter proteins, through their function in xenobiotic clearance, play an important role in resistance. We review here the current evidence for drug transporters as biomarkers and the benefit of adding drug transporter modulators to conventional chemotherapy.

Abstract
The ABCB1 gene encodes a permeability glycoprotein, which is one of the most extensively studied human adenosine-triphosphate (ATP)-dependent efflux transporters. Permeability glycoprotein is expressed in the apical membranes of tissues such as intestine, liver, blood–brain barrier, kidney, placenta, and testis and contributes to intracellular drug disposition. It is also highly expressed in tumor cells conferring drug resistance, which is one of the major problems in the efficacy of cancer chemotherapy treatment. ABCB1 is highly polymorphic, and three well-known single-nucleotide polymorphisms such as 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A, and 3435C>T have been found to be associated with altered messenger RNA levels, protein folding, and drug pharmacokinetics. Many association studies and meta-analyses have demonstrated the clinical impact of ABCB1 polymorphisms in breast cancer treatment outcomes with respect to therapeutic response, chemotoxicity, and overall survival. Therefore, the aim of this review was to evaluate the effects of ABCB1 polymorphisms on the outcome of breast cancer treatment which, in future, would be important for tailoring individualized anticancer therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Breast cancer has benefited from a number of innovative therapeutics over the last decade. Cytotoxics, hormone therapy, targeted therapies and biologics can now be given to ensure optimal management of patients. As life expectancy of breast cancer patients has been significantly stretched and that several lines of treatment are now made available, determining the best drug or drug combinations to be primarily given and the best dosing and scheduling for each patient is critical for ensuring an optimal toxicity/efficacy balance. AREAS COVERED Defining patient's characteristics at the tumor level (pharmacogenomics) and the constitutional level (pharmacogenetics) is a rising trend in oncology. This review covers the latest strategies based upon the search of relevant biomarkers for efficacy, resistance and toxicity to be undertaken at the bedside to shift towards precision medicine in breast cancer patients. EXPERT OPINION In the expanding era of bioguided medicine, identifying relevant and clinically validated biomarkers from the plethora of published material remains an uneasy task. Sorting the variety of genetic and molecular markers that have been investigated over the last decade on their level of evidence and addressing the issue of drug exposure should help to improve the management of breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role of three genetic polymorphisms of ABC proteins in response to chemotherapy and overall survival of osteosarcoma patients. Methods: A prospective study was conducted. Genotyping analyses of ABCB1 C3435T, ABCG2 C421A, and ABCC3 C-211T were conducted using the TaqMan methodology. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratio (HR) and 95% CI of effect of each genotype of ABCB1 C3435T, ABCG2 c421A, and ABCC3 C-211T on PFS and OS. Results: During the follow-up period, 135 patients (74.18%) were alive and 47 died (25.82). The median follow-up periods were 36.7 months. Individuals carrying with ABCB1 3435TT genotype and T allele showed less likely to have a poor response to chemotherapy. Cox regression analysis showed that individuals with ABCB1 TT genotype and T allele were associated with high risk of death from osteosarcoma when compared with wide-type genotype. However, we did not find significant association between ABCG2 C421A and ABCC3 C-211T polymorphisms and overall survival of osteosarcoma. Conclusion: ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism may be used as a genetic predictor of clinical outcome in osteosarcoma patients treated with chemotherapy. However, no association was found between polymorphisms in ABCG2 C421A and ABCC3 C-211T and clinical outcome of osteosarcoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Chemotherapeutic drug treatment outcomes are genetically determined. Polymorphisms in genes encoding phase II drug metabolizing enzyme glutathione-S-transferase (GST) can possibly predict treatment outcomes, and can be of prognostic significance in breast cancer patients. The aim of this study was to determine the role of genetic variations in GST in predicting response to, and toxicity of, anthracycline-based chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. METHOD Two hundred and seven patients treated with anthracycline-based chemotherapy were genotyped for GSTM1 and GSTT1 deletion polymorphisms, and GSTP1 Ile105Val (rs1695), by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/ PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Genetic variations were correlated with tumor response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in 100 patients, and with chemo-toxicity in 207 who received adjuvant chemotherapy or NACT, using Chi-square and logistic regression. Higher order gene-gene interactions with treatment outcomes were characterized by multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis. RESULTS In single-locus analysis, Ile/Val and Ile/Val+Val/Val genotypes of the GSTP1 Ile105Val (rs1695) polymorphism reached statistical significance with grade 2-4 anemia (P=0.019, P=0.027). On performing gene-gene interaction analysis, GSTM1 null-GSTP1 Ile/Val was significantly associated with response to NACT (P=0.032). On evaluating higher order gene-gene interaction models by MDR analysis, GSTM1 and GSTP1 Ile105Val; GSTM1 and GSTT1; and GSTT1 and GSTP1 Ile105Val showed significant association with treatment response, grade 2-4 anemia, and dose delay/reduction due to neutropenia (P=0.046, P=0.027, P=0.026), respectively. CONCLUSION Multi-analytical strategies may serve as a better tool for characterization of pharmacogenetic-based breast cancer treatment outcomes.
