A systematic review and meta-analysis of the impacts of germline pharmacogenomics on severe toxicity and symptom burden in adult patients with cancer. Clin Transl Sci 2024; 17:e13781. [PMID: 38700261 PMCID: PMC11067509 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024] Open
Abstract
The clinical application of Pharmacogenomics (PGx) has improved patient safety. However, comprehensive PGx testing has not been widely adopted in clinical practice, and significant opportunities exist to further optimize PGx in cancer care. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the safety outcomes of reported PGx-guided strategies (Analysis 1) and identify well-studied emerging pharmacogenomic variants that predict severe toxicity and symptom burden (Analysis 2) in patients with cancer. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL, clinicaltrials.gov, and International Clinical Trials Registry Platform from inception to January 2023 for clinical trials or comparative studies evaluating PGx strategies or unconfirmed pharmacogenomic variants. The primary outcomes were severe adverse events (SAE; ≥ grade 3) or symptom burden with pain and vomiting as defined by trial protocols and assessed by trial investigators. We calculated pooled overall relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) using random effects models. PROSPERO, registration number CRD42023421277. Of 6811 records screened, six studies were included for Analysis 1, 55 studies for Analysis 2. Meta-analysis 1 (five trials, 1892 participants) showed a lower absolute incidence of SAEs with PGx-guided strategies compared to usual therapy, 16.1% versus 34.0% (RR = 0.72, 95%CI 0.57-0.91, p = 0.006, I2 = 34%). Meta-analyses 2 identified nine medicine(class)-variant pairs of interest across the TYMS, ABCB1, UGT1A1, HLA-DRB1, and OPRM1 genes. Application of PGx significantly reduced rates of SAEs in patients with cancer. Emergent medicine-variant pairs herald further research into the expansion and optimization of PGx to improve systemic anti-cancer and supportive care medicine safety and efficacy.

Dong T, Gu Y. Impact of CYP2A6 Gene Polymorphism on the Efficacy and Safety of S-1 Therapy in Patients with Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Chemotherapy 2024:1-10. [PMID: 38599185 DOI: 10.1159/000538769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The relationship of CYP2A6 polymorphisms with S-1 therapy outcomes in gastric cancer is unclear. This review aimed to assess the association between CYP2A6 gene polymorphisms (CYP2A6*4, *7, *9, *10) and S-1 therapy outcomes in gastric cancer, aiming to identify predictive markers for S-1 efficacy and adverse reactions. METHODS We searched seven databases, using random or fixed-effect models to calculate hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) based on study heterogeneity. RESULTS A total of 1,143 articles were retrieved from multiple online databases as of March 28, 2023. After screening, seven articles containing seven investigations were included in the meta-analysis. Our results revealed a significant association between the CYP2A6 polymorphism site and the overall survival (OS) of variant/variant group (V/V) patients compared to wild-type/wild-type (W/W) or wild-type/variant (W/V) patients (HR = 2.73, 95% CI: 1.45-5.14, p = 0.002). S-1 was more beneficial for W/W or W/V patients than V/V patients in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 3.15, 95% CI: 1.47-6.75, p = 0.003). There was no association between CYP2A6 polymorphism and hematological adverse reactions (OR = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.23-1.15, p = 0.104). CONCLUSION CYP2A6 polymorphisms correlate with S-1 efficacy (OS and PFS) in gastric cancer, suggesting their potential as predictive markers. However, the generalizability of findings is limited by the small number of studies from Eastern countries and variations in chemotherapy regimens and detection methods. Further, large-scale studies are needed to confirm these associations.

Abstract
Fluoropyrimidines are chemotherapeutic agents widely used for the treatment of various solid tumors. Commonly prescribed FPs include 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and its oral prodrugs capecitabine (CAP) and tegafur. Bioconversion of 5-FU prodrugs to 5-FU and subsequent metabolic activation of 5-FU are required for the formation of fluorodeoxyuridine triphosphate (FdUTP) and fluorouridine triphosphate, the active nucleotides through which 5-FU exerts its antimetabolite actions. A significant proportion of FP-treated patients develop severe or life-threatening, even fatal, toxicity. It is well known that FP-induced toxicity is governed by genetic factors, with dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD), the rate limiting enzyme in 5-FU catabolism, being currently the cornerstone of FP pharmacogenomics. DPYD-based dosing guidelines exist to guide FP chemotherapy suggesting significant dose reductions in DPYD defective patients. Accumulated evidence shows that additional variations in other genes implicated in FP pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics increase risk for FP toxicity, therefore taking into account more gene variations in FP dosing guidelines holds promise to improve FP pharmacotherapy. In this review we describe the current knowledge on pharmacogenomics of FP-related genes, beyond DPYD, focusing on FP toxicity risk and genetic effects on FP dose reductions. We propose that in the future, FP dosing guidelines may be expanded to include a broader ethnicity-based genetic panel as well as gene*gene and gender*gene interactions towards safer FP prescription.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This retrospective study explored the feasibility of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) without radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). METHODS Patients with clinical stage of T3-T4 and/or N-positive LARC patients were included. We retrospectively analyzed patients' NAC-related and perioperative outcomes. RESULTS The study enrolled 30 patients. mFOLFOX6 or SOX plus cetuximab was administered to 12 patients with the wild-type RAS gene and FOLFOXIRI or SOXIRI to 18 patients with mutant-type RAS. The NAC completion rate was 90.0%. All patients underwent total mesorectal excision, and 29 patients underwent combined bilateral lateral lymph node dissection. The R0 operation rate was 90.0%. Although the postoperative complication rate was 40%, no complications were associated with NAC. The response rate of NAC and the proportion of histological anti-tumor effect grade ≥ 2 were 56.7% and 46.7%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS NAC was considered to be a safe, feasible treatment option for LARC.

Abstract
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes that metabolize endogenous fatty acids such as arachidonic acid metabolites, as well as many prescription drugs, such as opioids, antiepileptics, and antiviral drugs. The UGT1A and 2B genes are highly polymorphic, and their genetic variants may affect the pharmacokinetics and hence the responses of many drugs and fatty acids. This study collected data and updated the current view of the molecular functionality of genetic variants on UGT genes that impact drug responses and the susceptibility to human diseases. The functional information of UGT genetic variants with clinical associations are essential to understand the inter-individual variation in drug responses and susceptibility to toxicity.

Effect of UGT1A1, CYP3A and CES Activities on the Pharmacokinetics of Irinotecan and its Metabolites in Patients with UGT1A1 Gene Polymorphisms. Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2021; 46:317-324. [PMID: 33619631 DOI: 10.1007/s13318-021-00675-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/09/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Irinotecan (CPT-11) is metabolized to an active metabolite 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38) by carboxylesterase (CES). SN-38 is then converted to the inactive metabolite SN-38 glucuronide (SN-38G) by glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1). Genetic polymorphisms in UGT1A1 have been associated with altered SN-38 pharmacokinetics, which increase the risk of toxicity in patients. CPT-11 is also converted to 7-ethyl-10-[4-N-(5-aminopentanoic acid)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin (APC) and 7-ethyl-10-(4-amino-1-piperidino) carbonyloxycamptothecin (NPC) by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A), and this route also affects the plasma concentration of SN-38. We evaluated the activities of UGT1A1, CYP3A, and CES and the factors affecting the pharmacokinetics of plasma SN-38 in patients with UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms. METHODS Three male patients aged 56, 65, and 49 years were recruited for the analysis. All patients had pancreatic cancer, received FOLFIRINOX, and had UGT1A1*6/*6 (patients 1 and 3) or *6/*28 (patient 2) genetic polymorphisms. The rate constants for evaluating the enzyme activity were determined from the measured plasma concentration of CPT-11 and its metabolites using a two-compartment model by WinNonlin. RESULTS The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of SN-38 was patient 1 > patient 2 > patient 3. The rate constants obtained from the model analysis indicated the respective enzyme activities of UGT1A1 (k57), CYP3A (k13 + k19), and CES (k15). The order of values for UGT1A1 activity was patient 2 > patient 3 > patient 1. Since UGT1A1 activity was low in patient 1 with a high AUC of SN-38, it can be said that the increase in plasma concentration was due to a decrease in UGT1A1 activity. Conversely, the order of values for CYP3A and CES activities was patient 3 > patient 1 > patient 2 and patient 2 > patient 1 > patient 3, respectively. Patient 3 had the lowest AUC of SN-38, caused by a lower level of CES activity and increased CYP3A activity. CONCLUSION In this study, we indicated that the plasma AUC of SN-38 and AUC ratio of SN-38G/SN-38 may depend on changes in the activities of CYP3A, CES, and UGT1A1. Using pharmacokinetic analysis, it is possible to directly evaluate enzyme activity and consider what kind of enzyme variation causes the increase in the AUC of SN-38.

Abstract
Objective To study the efficacy and toxicity of irinotecan combined with oxaliplatin and S-1 in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Patients and methods Previously untreated patients with cytologically or histologically confirmed metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma underwent a treatment regimen consisting of an intravenous infusion of irinotecan 165 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 on day 1, and oral S-1 40 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1-14, repeating the regimen every 21 days until one of the following occurred: disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or patient death. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), response rate, toxicity, and quality of life. This ongoing study had been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03726021. Results A total of 41 patients were enrolled in this study, 18 men and 23 women. The median PFS was 4.33 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 2.83-5.88] and the median OS was 11.00 months (95% CI: 9.16-12.84). There were no instances of a complete response; the partial response, stable disease, and disease progression rates were 39.02% (16/41), 29.27% (12/41), and 31.71% (13/41), respectively.The most common adverse side effects were mild to moderate nausea, vomiting, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were observed in 29.27% (12/41) and 12.20% (5/41) of the patients, respectively. No treatment-related death was observed. Conclusion Irinotecan combined with oxaliplatin and S-1 is a safe and effective treatment for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and any toxicities are mild to moderate and tolerable. A larger study population is needed for further evaluation.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogeneous disease with various genetic and epigenetic factors leading to difficulties in response to both the therapy and drug resistance. Moreover, even in tumors with similar histopathological characteristics, different responses and molecular features could be observed because of the genetic basis and its interactions with the living environment. Through personalized medicine, we can classify patients into separate groups according to their genetic and epigenetic features and their susceptibility for a specific disease which could help with choosing the best therapeutic approach. In this review, genetic and epigenetic factors that cause heterogeneity in colorectal cancer are evaluated and proper drug administration in both chemotherapy and target therapy are suggested.

Abstract
Since its clinical introduction in 1998, the topoisomerase I inhibitor irinotecan has been widely used in the treatment of solid tumors, including colorectal, pancreatic, and lung cancer. Irinotecan therapy is characterized by several dose-limiting toxicities and large interindividual pharmacokinetic variability. Irinotecan has a highly complex metabolism, including hydrolyzation by carboxylesterases to its active metabolite SN-38, which is 100- to 1000-fold more active compared with irinotecan itself. Several phase I and II enzymes, including cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A, are involved in the formation of inactive metabolites, making its metabolism prone to environmental and genetic influences. Genetic variants in the DNA of these enzymes and transporters could predict a part of the drug-related toxicity and efficacy of treatment, which has been shown in retrospective and prospective trials and meta-analyses. Patient characteristics, lifestyle and comedication also influence irinotecan pharmacokinetics. Other factors, including dietary restriction, are currently being studied. Meanwhile, a more tailored approach to prevent excessive toxicity and optimize efficacy is warranted. This review provides an updated overview on today’s literature on irinotecan pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacogenetics.

Abstract
Aim: Germline variants could modify survival of metastatic colorectal cancer patients (mCRC). Patients & methods: The association of 285 haplotype-tagging SNPs in 11 candidate genes and overall survival (OS) was tested in two cohorts totalizing 417 FOLFIRI-treated mCRC. Gene expression was investigated in vitro and in public datasets. Results: In the combined cohort, CES1 rs9921399T>C was associated with prolonged OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.40) whereas ABCC1 rs17501011G>A (HR = 2.08) and UGT1 rs1113193G>A (HR = 2.12) were associated with shorter OS (p ≤ 0.005). A combined effect of these polymorphisms was observed with HR of 1.98-2.97 (p < 0.05). The ABCC1 rs17501011A variant reduced reporter-gene activity (p < 0.05) whereas ABCC1 tumor expression was associated with shorter survival (p ≤ 0.013). Conclusion: We identified a combination of genetic determinants that could predict mCRC survival.

[PMID: 29932028 DOI: 10.2174/0929867325666180622141101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2017] [Revised: 06/04/2018] [Accepted: 06/06/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Irinotecan (IRI) is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug, mostly used for first-line treatment of colorectal and pancreatic cancer. IRI doses are usually established based on patient's body surface area, an approach associated with large inter-individual variability in drug exposure and high incidence of severe toxicity. Toxic and therapeutic effects of IRI are also due to its active metabolite SN-38, reported to be up to 100 times more cytotoxic than IRI. SN-38 is detoxified by the formation of SN-38 glucuronide, through UGT1A1. Genetic polymorphisms in the UGT1A1 gene are associated to higher exposures to SN-38 and severe toxicity. Pharmacokinetic models to describe IRI and SN-38 kinetic profiles are available, with few studies exploring pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic-based dose individualization. The aim of this manuscript is to review the available evidence supporting pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic dose individualization of IRI in order to reduce the occurrence of severe toxicity during cancer treatment. METHODS The PubMed database was searched, considering papers published in the period from 1995-2017, using the keywords irinotecan, pharmacogenetics, metabolic genotyping, dose individualization, therapeutic drug monitoring, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, either alone or in combination, with original papers being selected based on the presence of relevant data. CONCLUSION The findings of this review confirm the importance of considering individual patient characteristics to select IRI doses. Currently, the most straightforward approach for IRI dose individualization is UGT1A1 genotyping. However, this strategy is sub-optimal due to several other genetic and environmental contributions to the variable pharmacokinetics of IRI and its active metabolite. The use of dried blood spot sampling could allow the clinical application of limited sampling and population pharmacokinetic models for IRI doses individualization.

Abstract
Cancer pharmacogenomics is the science concerned with understanding genetic alterations and its effects on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anti-cancer drugs, with the aim to provide cancer patients with the precise medication that will achieve a good response and cause low/no incidence of adverse events. Advances in biotechnology and bioinformatics have enabled genomic research to evolve from the evaluation of alterations at the single-gene level to studies on the whole-genome scale using large-scale genotyping and next generation sequencing techniques. International collaborative efforts have resulted in the construction of databases to curate the identified genetic alterations that are clinically significant, and these are currently utilized in clinical sequencing and liquid biopsy screening/monitoring. Furthermore, countless clinical studies have accumulated sufficient evidence to match cancer patients to therapies by utilizing the information of clinical-relevant alterations. In this review we summarize the importance of germline alterations that act as predictive biomarkers for drug-induced toxicity and drug response as well as somatic mutations in cancer cells that function as drug targets. The integration of genomics into the medical field has transformed the era of cancer therapy from one-size-fits-all to cancer precision medicine.

Clin Colorectal Cancer 2017; 17:e257-e268. [PMID: 29330005 DOI: 10.1016/j.clcc.2017.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2017] [Revised: 11/13/2017] [Accepted: 12/07/2017] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of the present phase I study was to define the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of irinotecan, capecitabine, and oxaliplatin given in combination (IXO regimen) to patients with previously untreated, unresectable advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients received oxaliplatin followed by irinotecan as intravenous infusions on day 1, with oral capecitabine taken twice daily (BID) on days 2 to 15 of a 3-week cycle. The dose ranges were explored as follows: oxaliplatin, 75 to 120 mg/m2; irinotecan, 160 to 230 mg/m2; capecitabine, 750 to 1000 mg/m2 BID. Dose escalation was performed individually for each drug at each dose level according to the type and severity of toxicity encountered in the previous cohort. RESULTS A total of 39 patients were enrolled at 7 dose levels and the MTD. The recommended doses for phase II evaluation were oxaliplatin 100 mg/m2, irinotecan 160 mg/m2, and capecitabine 950 mg/m2 BID. Diarrhea and febrile neutropenia were DLTs. Of the 39 enrolled patients, 26 (67%) had confirmed objective responses. The median progression-free survival was 11 months, and the median overall survival was 25 months. The survival rate at 5 years was 23%. CONCLUSION The IXO regimen has a manageable toxicity profile with promising antitumor activity as first-line treatment of advanced and metastatic CRC.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) enzyme metabolizes several clinically relevant substrates, including nicotine-the primary psychoactive component in cigarette smoke. The gene that encodes the CYP2A6 enzyme is highly polymorphic, resulting in extensive interindividual variation in CYP2A6 enzyme activity and the rate of metabolism of nicotine and other CYP2A6 substrates including cotinine, tegafur, letrozole, efavirenz, valproic acid, pilocarpine, artemisinin, artesunate, SM-12502, caffeine, and tyrosol. CYP2A6 expression and activity are also impacted by non-genetic factors, including induction or inhibition by pharmacological, endogenous, and dietary substances, as well as age-related changes, or interactions with other hepatic enzymes, co-enzymes, and co-factors. As variation in CYP2A6 activity is associated with smoking behavior, smoking cessation, tobacco-related lung cancer risk, and with altered metabolism and resulting clinical responses for several therapeutics, CYP2A6 expression and enzyme activity is an important clinical consideration. This review will discuss sources of variation in CYP2A6 enzyme activity, with a focus on the impact of CYP2A6 genetic variation on metabolism of the CYP2A6 substrates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a high dose of oral tegafur-uracil (400 mg/m2) plus leucovorin with preoperative chemoradiation of locally advanced rectal cancer and to explore the impact of polymorphisms of cytochrome P 2A6 (CYP2A6), uridine monophosphate synthetase (UMPS), and ATP-binding cassette B1 (ABCB1) on clinical outcome. METHODS Patients with cT3 or cT4 rectal cancer were enrolled and were given tegafur-uracil 400 mg/m2/day and leucovorin 90 mg/m2/day for 7 days a week during preoperative chemoradiation (50.4 Gy/28 fractions) in this phase II trial. Primary endpoint was pathologic complete response rate, and the secondary endpoint was to explore the association between clinical outcomes and genetic polymorphisms CYP2A6 (*4, *7, *9 and *10), UMPS G638C, and three ABCB1 genotypes (C1236T, C3435T, and G2677T). RESULTS Ninety-one patients were given study treatment, and 90 underwent surgery. Pathologic complete response was noted in 10 patients (11.1%). There was no grade 4 or 5 toxicity; 20 (22.0%) experienced grade 3 toxicities, including diarrhea (10, 11.0%), abdominal pain (2, 2.2%), and anemia (2, 2.2%). Relapse-free survival and overall survival at 5 years were 88.6% and 94.2%, respectively. Patients with the UMPS 638 CC genotype experienced significantly more frequent grade 2 or 3 diarrhea (p for trend = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative chemoradiation with tegafur-uracil 400 mg/m2/day with leucovorin was feasible, but did not meet the expected pathologic complete response rate. The UMPS 638 CC genotype might be a candidate biomarker predicting toxicity in patients receiving tegafur-uracil/leucovorin-based preoperative chemoradiation for locally advanced rectal cancer.

Abstract
Background The first one-arm phase II trial aimed to evaluate and predict efficacy and safety of S-1 plus oral leucovorin (S-1/LV) as first-line chemotherapy for patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC), using S-1 pharmacogenetic pathway approach. Patients and methods A total of 39 patients orally took S-1 at conventional dose and LV simultaneously at a dose of 25 mg twice daily for a week, within a 2-week cycle. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR), while the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), time to failure (TTF), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), and adverse events (AEs). Peripheral blood was sampled prospectively for baseline expression of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (OPRT), thymidine phosphorylase (TP), and thymidylate synthase (TS), CYP2A6 gene polymorphisms, and 5-FU pharmacokinetics. Results The ORR and DCR were 41.0 and 76.9%. The median PFS, TTF, and OS were 4.13, 3.70, and 11.40 months. Grade 3–4 AEs occurred in only 13 patients, and grade 4 AEs occurred in only 1 of them. High OPRT/TS and peritoneal metastasis (vs. liver metastasis) independently predicted responding. High OPRT/DPD independently predicted grade 3–4 AEs. High AUC0–24h of 5-FU and metastatic/recurrent sites ≤2 (vs. >3) independently predicted prolonged PFS. Low baseline plasmic DPD independently predicted prolonged OS. Conclusions Two-week, oral S-1/LV regimen demonstrated promising efficacy and safety as first-line chemotherapy for AGC.

Abstract
PURPOSES To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended dose (RD), and activity of combined oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and S-1 chemotherapy for metastatic or recurrent gastrointestinal (GI) cancer. METHODS Oxaliplatin and irinotecan were administered intravenously on day 1, and S-1 was administered orally on days 1-7, every 2 weeks. This phase I study used the following dose levels for oxaliplatin/irinotecan/S-1: level 1, 85/120/60 mg/m2; level 2, 85/120/80 mg/m2; level 3, 85/120/100 mg/m2; level 4, 85/150/100 mg/m2; and level 5, 85/180/100 mg/m2. Treatment was repeated for a maximum of 12 cycles, until disease progression, or until unacceptable toxicity. RESULTS Twenty-four patients were enrolled between October 2012 and February 2014 (median age 59 years). During the first cycle, one of the six patients in levels 1, 3, and 4 developed a dose-limiting toxicity (grade 3 febrile neutropenia), and none of the three patients in level 5 developed a dose-limiting toxicity. As the planned maximum dose did not reach the MTD, the level 5 dose was defined as the RD. Twenty-one patients were evaluated for response, which included 2 cases of complete response and 8 cases of partial response, with an overall response rate of 47.6 %. CONCLUSIONS The combination of oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and S-1 provided an acceptable toxicity profile and modest clinical benefits in patients with advanced GI cancer. The RD was 85 mg/m2 of oxaliplatin, 180 mg/m2 of irinotecan, and 100 mg/m2 of S-1 every 2 weeks.

Abstract
During the 3rd congress of the European Society of Pharmacogenomics and Personalised Therapy (ESPT) in Budapest in 2015, a preliminary meeting was held aimed at establishing a pediatric individualized treatment in oncology and hematology committees. The main purpose was to facilitate the transfer and harmonization of pharmacogenetic testing from research into clinics, to bring together basic and translational research and to educate health professionals throughout Europe. The objective of this review was to provide the attendees of the meeting as well as the larger scientific community an insight into the compiled evidence regarding current pharmacogenomics knowledge in pediatric oncology. This preliminary evaluation will help steer the committee’s work and should give the reader an idea at which stage researchers and clinicians are, in terms of personalizing medicine for children with cancer. From the evidence presented here, future recommendations to achieve this goal will also be suggested.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) persists as one of the most prevalent and deadly tumor types in both men and women worldwide. This is in spite of widespread, effective measures of preventive screening, and also major advances in treatment options. Despite advances in cytotoxic and targeted therapy, resistance to chemotherapy remains one of the greatest challenges in long-term management of incurable metastatic disease and eventually contributes to death as tumors accumulate means of evading treatment. We performed a comprehensive literature search on the data available through PubMed, Medline, Scopus, and the ASCO Annual Symposium abstracts through June 2015 for the purpose of this review. We discuss the current state of knowledge of clinically relevant mechanisms of resistance to cytotoxic and targeted therapies now in use for the treatment of CRC.

Abstract
Studies of pharmacogenomics-related traits are increasingly being performed to identify loci that affect either drug response or susceptibility to adverse drug reactions. However, the effect of the polymorphisms can differ in magnitude or be absent depending on the population being assessed. We used the Affymetrix Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters (DMET) Plus array to characterize the distribution of polymorphisms of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics (PGx) relevance in two samples from the most populous Latin American countries, Brazil and Mexico. The sample from Brazil included 268 individuals from the southeastern state of Rio de Janeiro, and was stratified into census categories. The sample from Mexico comprised 45 Native American Zapotecas and 224 self-identified Mestizo individuals from 5 states located in geographically distant regions in Mexico. We evaluated the admixture proportions in the Brazilian and Mexican samples using a panel of Ancestry Informative Markers extracted from the DMET array, which was validated with genome-wide data. A substantial variation in ancestral proportions across census categories in Brazil, and geographic regions in Mexico was identified. We evaluated the extent of genetic differentiation (measured as FST values) of the genetic markers of the DMET Plus array between the relevant parental populations. Although the average levels of genetic differentiation are low, there is a long tail of markers showing large frequency differences, including markers located in genes belonging to the Cytochrome P450, Solute Carrier (SLC) and UDP-glucuronyltransferase (UGT) families as well as other genes of PGx relevance such as ABCC8, ADH1A, CHST3, PON1, PPARD, PPARG, and VKORC1. We show how differences in admixture history may have an important impact in the distribution of allele and genotype frequencies at the population level.

Abstract
Conversion therapy brings hope of a cure for colorectal cancer patients with potentially resectable liver metastases. Recent studies demonstrated that conversion therapy could achieve shrinkage of liver metastases and thus render some for resection and offer the chance of long-term survival. Besides preoperative systemic chemotherapy, oncosurgical modalities are also available, primarily including liver resection following portal vein ligation/embolization and two-stage liver resection. In this article, we will review recent advances in conversion therapy for these patients.
