Abstract
OBJECTIVES Many studies were conducted to determine the association between genetic polymorphisms in CYP2B6 c.516G>T and cyclophosphamide (CYC) efficacy or toxicity, no studies were focused on both clinical efficacy and toxicity of CYC. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the CYP2B6 c.516G>T polymorphism (rs 3745274) and 17 different parameters related to CYC efficacy and tolerability in Egyptian patients with lupus nephritis (LN). METHODS A prospective cohort study on 142 LN patients with a mean age of 36.26 was conducted at Kasr Al Ainy School of Medicine, Cairo University, Egypt after the exclusion of 14 patients due to receiving an interacting medication with CYC. All clinical parameters related to CYC efficacy or toxicity were recorded and compared between the different genotypes. RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference between different genotypes in 11 out of 13 of the studied efficacy-related parameters. Many of the studied clinical parameters revealed that CYC's efficacy was associated with the presence of the T allele. There was a statistically significant difference between different genotypes in hepatotoxicity, diarrhea, and blood-related toxicities. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this study is the first study that focused on studying 17 different parameters related to CYC efficacy and tolerability. Our findings paint a picture of the function that CYP2B6 polymorphisms play in Egyptian LN patients. Pre-treatment evaluation of CYP2B6 rs 3745274 may account for some individual differences in treatment response.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation mortality has declined over the years, though prevention and management of treatment-related toxicities and post-transplant complications remains challenging. Applications of pharmacogenomic testing can potentially mitigate adverse drug outcomes due to interindividual variability in drug metabolism and response. This review summarizes clinical pharmacogenomic applications relevant to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, including antifungals, immunosuppressants, and supportive care management, as well as emerging pharmacogenomic evidence with conditioning regimens.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a curative treatment for patients with hematologic malignances. Haploidentical HSCT (Haplo-HSCT) is an alternative option for patients who do not have an HLA-matched donor. The use of post-transplantation high dose cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is commonly employed for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis in haplo-HSCT. Cyclophosphamide (Cy) is an alkylating agent with antineoplastic and immunosuppressive activity, whose bioactivation requires the activity of polymorphic enzymes in the liver to produce phosphoramide mustard, which is a DNA alkylating agent. To identify polymorphisms in the genes of Cy metabolism and correlate them with post-HSCT complications [GVHD, sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) and transplant-related mortality (TRM)], we designed a custom next-generation sequencing panel with Cy metabolism enzymes. We analyzed 182 patients treated with haplo-HSCT with PT-Cy from 2007 to 2019, detecting 40 variants in 11 Cy metabolism genes. Polymorphisms in CYP2B6, a major enzyme involved in Cy activation, were associated with decreased activity of this enzyme and a higher risk of Graf-versus-host disease (GVHD). Variants in other activation enzymes (CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19) lead to decreased enzyme activity and were associated with GVHD. Polymorphisms in detoxification genes such as glutathione S-transferases decreased the ability to detoxify cyclophosphamide metabolites due to lower enzyme activity, which leads to increased amounts of toxic metabolites and the development of III-IV acute GVHD. GSMT1*0 a single nucleotide polymorphism previously recognized as a risk factor for SOS was associated with a higher risk of SOS. We conclude that polymorphisms of genes involved in the metabolism of cyclophosphamide in our series are associated with severe grades of GVHD and toxicities (SOS and TRM) after haplo-HSCT and could be used to improve the clinical management of transplanted patients.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV) nephritis, also known as Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN), is a condition in which small blood vessel inflammation and perivascular IgA deposition in the kidney caused by neutrophil activation, which more often leads to chronic kidney disease and accounts for 1%–2% of children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The treatment principles recommended by the current management guidelines include general drug treatment, support measures and prevention of sequelae, among which the therapeutic drugs include corticosteroids, immunosuppressive agents and angiotensin system inhibitors. However, the concentration range of immunosuppressive therapy is narrow and the individualized difference is large, and the use of corticosteroids does not seem to improve the persistent nephropathy and prognosis of children with IgAV. Therefore, individualized maintenance treatment of the disease and stable renal prognosis are still difficult problems. Genetic information helps to predict drug response in advance. It has been proved that most gene polymorphisms of cytochrome oxidase P450 and drug transporter can affect drug efficacy and adverse reactions (ADR). Drug therapy based on genetics and pharmacogenomics is beneficial to providing safer and more effective treatment for children. Based on the pathogenesis of IgAV, this paper summarizes the current therapeutic drugs, explores potential therapeutic drugs, and focuses on the therapeutic significance of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants in children with IgAV nephritis at the level of pharmacogenomics. In addition, the individualized application of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants in children with different genotypes was analyzed, in order to provide a more comprehensive reference for the individualized treatment of IgAV nephritis in children.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cyclophosphamide is a commonly used cancer agent that is metabolically activated by polymorphic enzymes. This study aims to investigate the association between predicted activity of candidate pharmacogenes with severe toxicity during cyclophosphamide treatment. METHODS Genome-wide genetic data was collected from an institutional genetic data repository for CYP2B6, CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, GSTA1, GSTP1, ALDH1A1, ALDH3A1, ABCC1, ABCB1, and ERCC1. Treatment and toxicity data were retrospectively collected from the patient's medical record. The a priori selected primary hypothesis was that patients who have CYP2B6 reduced metabolizer activity (poor or intermediate (PM/IM) vs. normal (NM) metabolizer) have lower risk of severe toxicity or cyclophosphamide treatment modification due to toxicity. RESULTS In the primary analysis of 510 cyclophosphamide-treated patients with available genetic data, there was no difference in the odds of severe toxicity or treatment modification due to toxicity in CYP2B6 PM/IM vs. NM (odds ratio = 0.97, 95% Confidence Interval: 0.62-1.50, p = 0.88). In an exploratory, statistically uncorrected secondary analysis, carriers of the ALDH1A1 rs8187996 variant had a lower risk of the primary toxicity endpoint compared with wild-type homozygous patients (odds ratio = 0.31, 95% Confidence Interval: 0.09-0.78, p = 0.028). None of the other tested phenotypes or genotypes was associated with the primary or secondary endpoints in unadjusted analysis (all p > 0.05). CONCLUSION The finding that patients who carry ALDH1A1 rs8187996 may have a lower risk of cyclophosphamide toxicity than wild-type patients contradicts a prior finding for this variant and should be viewed with skepticism. We found weak evidence that any of these candidate pharmacogenetic predictors of cyclophosphamide toxicity may be useful to personalize cyclophosphamide dosing to optimize therapeutic outcomes in patients with cancer.

Influence of cytochrome P450 and glutathione S transferase polymorphisms on response to nilotinib therapy among chronic myeloidleukemia patients from Pakistan. BMC Cancer 2022; 22:519. [PMID: 35527244 PMCID: PMC9080200 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-022-09605-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytochrome P450 (CYP) and glutathione S transferases (GSTs) are important biotransforming enzymes responsible for detoxification of anticancer drugs and carcinogens. Polymorphisms in these enzymes may greatly influence the susceptibility to CML and overall efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This study was aimed to estimate the possible influence of the polymorphisms of GSTs and CYP in the occurrence of CML as well as in predicting therapeutic outcome of nilotinib therapy in Pakistani CML patients. METHODS The polymorphic variability in CYP 1A1*2C, GSTP1 (A3131G), GSTT1 and GSTM1 was assessed either by RFLP or multiplex PCR. The BCR ABL1 transcripts were quantified by qPCR to monitor response to nilotinib. RESULTS The CYP1A1*2C heterozygous and GSTP1 homozygous polymorphisms seemed to be a contributing factor in developing CML. Altogether, there were 12 non-responders, 66 responders and 21 partial responders. The most frequent genotype was null GSTM1 in responders followed by CYP 1A1 and GSTP1 -wild type (p = < 0.05). Whereas, homozygous GSTP1 and GSTT1 null genotype is significantly higher only among nilotinib non-responders. CONCLUSION Hence, it can be concluded that wild type CYP1A1, GSTP1 and null GSTM1 may be frequently linked to favorable outcome in patients treated with nilotinib as depicted by sustained deep molecular response in most CML patients.

Effects of cyclophosphamide related genetic variants on clinical outcomes of adult hematopoietic cell transplant patients. Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 2022; 89:543-549.

Abstract
PURPOSE Genetic variants may influence the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PKPD) of cyclophosphamide (CY). CY plays a critical role in conditioning chemotherapy for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but its use is limited by toxicity. We explored the effect of genetic variants, potentially affecting PKPD of CY, and outcomes after HCT. METHODS This observational pharmacogenomic study included 85 adults with hematologic malignancies who received reduced intensity conditioning with CY, fludarabine, and total body irradiation. We collected recipient DNA prior to HCT and evaluated 97 candidate variants in 66 genes and 3 metabolism phenotypes potentially involved in PKPD pathways of CY. In multivariable analysis we investigated the association between the genotypes and four clinical outcomes: Day 180 non-relapse mortality (NRM) and day 180 overall survival (OS), acute graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD) grades 2-4, and engraftment. p values were not adjusted for multiple testing. RESULTS The median recipient age was 63 years (range 21-75). Acute myeloid leukemia was the most common diagnosis (34%; n = 29). In multivariable analysis adjusted for exposure to phosphoramide mustard, the final active metabolite of CY, we identified 6 variants in 6 genes associated with at least one of the clinical outcomes. An ABCC4 variant (rs9561778) was associated with poor Day 180 NRM (p < 0.01), MUTYH variant (rs3219484) with higher Day 180 NRM and aGVHD (both p < 0.01), and SYNE1 variant (rs4331993) with better Day 180 OS and engraftment (both p ≤ 0.01). CONCLUSION The present study suggests that genetic variants influencing the PKPD of CY may help identify patients at risk for inferior outcomes after HCT using CY-based reduced-intensity conditioning.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics is one of the cornerstones of Personalized Precision Medicine that needs to be implemented in the routine of our patients' clinical management in order to tailor their therapies as much as possible, with the aim of maximizing efficacy and minimizing toxicity. This is of great importance, especially in pediatric cancer and even more in complex malignancies such as neuroblastoma, where the rates of therapeutic success are still below those of many other types of tumors. The studies are mainly focused on germline genetic variants and in the present review, state of the art is presented: which are the variants that have a level of evidence high enough to be implemented in the clinic, and how to distinguish them from the ones that still need validation to confirm their utility. Further aspects as relevant characteristics regarding ontogeny and future directions in the research will also be discussed.

CYP2B6 Functional Variability in Drug Metabolism and Exposure Across Populations-Implication for Drug Safety, Dosing, and Individualized Therapy. Front Genet 2021; 12:692234. [PMID: 34322158 PMCID: PMC8313315 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.692234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is well-known that individual genetic make-up is one of the causative factors of ADRs. Approximately 14 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are distributed throughout the entire human genome and every patient has a distinct genetic make-up which influences their response to drug therapy. Cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6) is involved in the metabolism of antiretroviral, antimalarial, anticancer, and antidepressant drugs. These drug classes are commonly in use worldwide and face specific population variability in side effects and dosing. Parts of this variability may be caused by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2B6 gene that are associated with altered protein expression and catalytic function. Population variability in the CYP2B6 gene leads to changes in drug metabolism which may result in adverse drug reactions or therapeutic failure. So far more than 30 non-synonymous variants in CYP2B6 gene have been reported. The occurrence of these variants show intra and interpopulation variability, thus affecting drug efficacy at individual and population level. Differences in disease conditions and affordability of drug therapy further explain why some individuals or populations are more exposed to CYP2B6 pharmacogenomics associated ADRs than others. Variabilities in drug efficacy associated with the pharmacogenomics of CYP2B6 have been reported in various populations. The aim of this review is to highlight reports from various ethnicities that emphasize on the relationship between CYP2B6 pharmacogenomics variability and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. In vitro and in vivo studies evaluating the catalytic activity of CYP2B6 variants using various substrates will also be discussed. While implementation of pharmacogenomic testing for personalized drug therapy has made big progress, less data on pharmacogenetics of drug safety has been gained in terms of CYP2B6 substrates. Therefore, reviewing the existing evidence on population variability in CYP2B6 and ADR risk profiles suggests that, in addition to other factors, the knowledge on pharmacogenomics of CYP2B6 in patient treatment may be useful for the development of personalized medicine with regards to genotype-based prescription.

Abstract
Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) is a potentially life-threatening complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or antineoplastic treatment without HSCT. Genetic variants were investigated for their association with SOS, but the evidence is inconclusive. We performed a systematic literature review to identify genes, gene variants, and methods of association analyses of genetic markers with SOS. We identified 23 studies after HSCT and 4 studies after antineoplastic treatment without HSCT. One study (4%) performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) and replicated the analysis in an independent cohort, 26 used a candidate-gene approach. Three studies included >200 participants (11%), and six were of high quality (22%). Variants in 34 genes were tested in candidate gene studies after HSCT. Variants in GSTA1 were associated with SOS in three studies, MTHFR in two, and CPS1, CTH, CYP2B6, GSTM1, GSTP1, HFE, and HPSE in one study each. UGT2B10 and LNPK variants were identified in a WES analysis. After exposure to antineoplastic agents without HSCT, variants in six genes were tested and only GSTM1 was associated with SOS. There was a substantial heterogeneity of populations within and between studies. Future research should be based on sufficiently large homogenous samples, adjust for covariates, and replicate findings in independent cohorts.

PHARMACOGENOMICS & PERSONALIZED MEDICINE 2021; 14:253-268. [PMID: 33623415 PMCID: PMC7894888 DOI: 10.2147/pgpm.s289834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to develop a novel busulfan dosing regimen, based on a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model in Chinese children, and to achieve better area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) targeting. Patients and Methods We collected busulfan concentration-time samples from 69 children who received intravenous busulfan prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). A population pharmacokinetic model for busulfan was developed by nonlinear mixed effect modelling and was validated by an external dataset (n=14). A novel busulfan dosing regimen was developed through simulated patients, and has been verified on real patients. Limited sampling strategy (LSS) was established by Bayesian forecasting. Mean absolute prediction error (MAPE) and relative root mean Squared error (rRMSE) were calculated to evaluate predictive accuracy. Results A one-compartment model with first-order elimination best described the data. GSTA1 genotypes, body surface area (BSA) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were found to be significant covariates of Bu clearance, and BSA had significant impact of the volume of distribution. Moreover, two equations were obtained for recommended dose regimens: dose (mg)=34.14×BSA (m2)+3.75 (for GSTA1 *A/*A), Dose (mg)=30.99×BSA (m2)+3.21 (for GSTA1 *A/*B). We also presented a piecewise dosage based on BSA categories for each GSTA1 mutation. A two-point LSS, two hours and four hours after dosing, behaved well with acceptable prediction precision (rRMSE=1.026%, MAPE=6.55%). Conclusion We recommend a GSTA1-BSA and BSA-based dosing (Q6 h) based on a PPK model for personalizing busulfan therapy in pediatric population. Additionally, an optimal LSS (C2h and C4h) provides convenience for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in the future.

Abstract
Vitamin D was discovered 100 years ago and since then multiple studies have consistently proved its effect on bone health and mineral metabolism. Further research has also explored its so-called "non-classical" biological effects, encompassing immune regulation and control of cell proliferation and differentiation. Vitamin D downregulates pro-inflammatory immune cells and subsequently their cytokine production, while enhancing the anti-inflammatory subsets, thus mediating inflammation and fostering a more tolerogenic environment. Its biological action is exerted through the vitamin D receptor, a nuclear receptor that mediates gene transcription and is expressed in most cells from the innate and adaptive immunity. Owing to its immune-modulatory properties, its role in cancer pathophysiology, hematology disorders and stem cell transplantation has also been investigated. Vitamin D deficiency causes immune imbalance and cytokine dysregulation, contributing to some autoimmune diseases. In the hematopoietic stem cell transplant setting this could lead to complications such as acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease, ultimately impacting transplant outcomes. Other factors have also been linked to this, including specific polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor in both stem cell donors and recipients. Nevertheless, studies thus far have shown conflicting results and the use of vitamin D or its receptor as biomarkers has not been validated yet, therefore there are no evidence-based consensus guidelines to guide clinicians in their day-to-day practice. To gain more insight in this topic, we have reviewed the existent literature and gathered the current evidence. This is an overview of the role of serum vitamin D and its receptor as biomarkers for clinical outcomes in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts are warranted to validate the viability of using serum vitamin D, and its receptor, as biomarkers in potential stem cell donors and patients, to identify those at risk of post-transplant complications and enable early therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
The nutritional status of patients submitted to hematopoietic stem cell transplant is considered an independent risk factor, which may influence on quality of life and tolerance to the proposed treatment. The impairment of nutritional status during hematopoietic stem cell transplant occurs mainly due to the adverse effects resulting from conditioning to which the patient is subjected. Therefore, adequate nutritional evaluation and follow-up during hematopoietic stem cell transplant are essential. To emphasize the importance of nutritional status and body composition during treatment, as well as the main characteristics related to the nutritional assessment of the patient, the Brazilian Consensus on Nutrition in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant: Adults was prepared, aiming to standardize and update Nutritional Therapy in this area. Dietitians, nutrition physicians and hematologists from 15 Brazilian centers thar are references in hematopoietic stem cell transplant took part.

Abstract
One of the most promising therapeutic approaches for numerous hematological malignancies represents the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). One major complication is the development of the life-threatening graft-vs.-host disease (GvHD) which limits beneficial effects of graft-vs.-leukemia (GvL) responses during allo-HSCT. Strengthening GvL effects without induction of severe GvHD is essential to decrease the relapse rate after allo-HSCT. An interesting player in this context is vitamin D3 since it has modulatory capacity in both preventing GvHD and boosting GvL responses. Current studies claim that vitamin D3 induces an immunosuppressive environment by dendritic cell (DC)-dependent generation of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Since vitamin D3 is known to support the antimicrobial defense by re-establishing the physical barrier as well as releasing defensins and antimicrobial peptides, it might also improve graft-vs.-infection (GvI) effects in patients. Beyond that, alloreactive T cells might be attenuated by vitamin D3-mediated inhibition of proliferation and activation. Despite the inhibitory effects of vitamin D3 on T cells, anti-tumor responses of GvL might be reinforced by vitamin D3-triggered phagocytic activity and antibody-based immunotherapy. Therefore, vitamin D3 treatment does not only lead to a shift from a pro-inflammatory toward a tolerogenic state but also promotes tumoricidal activity of immune cells. In this review we focus on vitamin D3 and its immunomodulatory effects by enhancing anti-tumor activity while alleviating harmful allogeneic responses in order to restore the immune balance.

Abstract
As a widely used alkylating agent, cyclophosphamide often leads to various toxicities. Severe hepatotoxicity has been rarely reported in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy containing cyclophosphamide. Differences in cyclophosphamide metabolism may contribute to variability in adverse events of patients. Here, we report on a case of a 68-year-old Chinese female with breast cancer who experienced severe and prolonged hepatotoxicity induced by cyclophosphamide. Pharmacogenetic tests showed that she was a carrier of CYP2B6*7 allele and this is the first case of a CYP2B6*7 variant in the Han Chinese population so far reported. In addition, the patient was also a carrier of an ALDH3A1*2 variant potentially contributing to the occurrence of hepatotoxicity. CYP2B6 and ALDH3A1 genotyping may play a role in guiding cyclophosphamide therapy.

[PMID: 31480560 PMCID: PMC6781287 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics11090440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2019] [Revised: 08/13/2019] [Accepted: 08/18/2019] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Busulfan pharmacokinetics exhibit large inter-subject variability. Our objective was to evaluate the influence of glutathione S-transferase A1 (GSTA1) gene variants on busulfan oral clearance (CLo) in a population of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods: This is a quasi-experimental retrospective study in adult patients (n = 87 included in the final analyses) receiving oral busulfan. Pharmacokinetics data (area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) determined from 10 blood samples) were retrieved from patients’ files and GSTA1 *A and *B allele polymorphisms determined from banked DNA samples. Three different limited sampling methods (LSM) using four blood samples were also compared. Results: Carriers of GSTA1*B exhibited lower busulfan CLo than patients with an *A/*A genotype (p < 0.002): Busulfan CLo was 166 ± 31, 187 ± 37 vs. 207 ± 47 mL/min for GSTA1*B/*B,*A/*B and *A/*A genotypes, respectively. Similar results were obtained with the tested LSMs. Using the standard AUC method, distribution of patients above the therapeutic range after the first dose was 29% for GSTA1*A/*A, 50% for *A/*B, and 65% for *B/*B. The LSMs correctly identified ≥91% of patients with an AUC above the therapeutic range. The misclassified patients had a mean difference less than 5% in their AUCs. Conclusion: Patients carrying GSTA1 loss of function *B allele were at increased risk of overdosing on their initial busulfan oral dose. Genetic polymorphisms associated with GSTA1 explain a significant part of busulfan CLo variability which could be captured by LSM strategies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Asthenia, myalgia, arthralgia, mucositis, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and neutropenia are adverse reactions commonly reported by women undergoing chemotherapy. Traditional approaches do not take into account the effect that chemotherapeutic changes and variable interactions can cause in adverse reactions. We aimed to identify the impact of the change of a chemotherapy protocol within the same treatment in profiles associated with adverse reactions. METHODS A total of 166 women admitted to the Brazilian National Institute of Cancer (INCA) were followed. Polymorphisms, clinical variables, and FAC-D protocols (3 cycles of cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, and doxorubicin followed by 3 cycles of docetaxel) composed the set of independent variables analyzed. Reaction levels were recorded at the end of each chemotherapy cycle via interviews. Marginal models were fitted. RESULTS The results of marginal models for non-hematological reactions revealed that the docetaxel phase was associated with increased reaction levels compared with the FAC phase. In addition, the set of factors associated with the reactions changed in each protocol. The post-menopausal status was related to high levels of asthenia in docetaxel protocol whereas CYP2B6 polymorphism (rs3745274) was related to high levels in FAC protocol. Regarding the docetaxel phase, high levels of abdominal pain and mucositis were related to CBR3 gene (rs8133052) polymorphism and diabetes respectively. CONCLUSION The results suggest the need for monitoring non-hematological reactions during the docetaxel phase of FAC-D treatment. The factors related to more severe reactions depend on the chemotherapy protocol used.

Abstract
PURPOSE The biologically active metabolite of vitamin D3, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (vit D), has immunoregulatory properties via binding vitamin D receptor (VDR). In a prospective trial, we previously reported a reduction in the incidence of chronic GvHD (cGvHD) among patients who received vit D after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT; Clinical Trials.gov: NCT02600988). Here we analyze the role of patients and donors' VDR SNPs on the immunomodulatory effect of vit D. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients undergoing allo-HSCT were included in a prospective phase I/II clinical trial (Alovita) in three consecutive cohorts: control (without vit D), low-dose (1,000 IU/day), and high-dose (5,000 IU/day) groups. Vit D was given from day -5 until +100 after transplant. Genotyping of four SNPs of the VDR gene, FokI, BsmI, ApaI, and TaqI, were performed using TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. RESULTS We observed a decrease in the incidence of overall cGvHD at 1 year after allo-HSCT depending on the use or not of vit D among patients with FokI CT genotype (22.5% vs 80%, P = 0.0004) and among those patients without BsmI/ApaI/TaqI ATC haplotype (22.2% vs 68.8%, P = 0.0005). In a multivariate analysis, FokI CT genotype significantly influenced the risk of cGvHD in patients treated with vit D as compared with the control group (HR 0.143, P interaction < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results show that the immunomodulatory effect of vit D depends on the VDR SNPs, and patients carrying the FokI CT genotype display the highest benefit from receiving vit D after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) remains a major obstacle to the success of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). GVHD occurs because donor T cells in the allograft recognize the genetically disparate host as foreign and attack the transplant recipient's tissues. While genetic incompatibility between donor and recipient is the primary determinant for the extent of alloimmune response, GVHD incidence and severity are also influenced by non-genetic factors. Recent advances in immunology establish that environmental factors, including dietary micronutrients, contribute significantly to modulating various immune responses and may influence the susceptibility to autoimmune and inflammatory diseases of experimental animals and humans. Emerging clinical and preclinical evidence indicates that certain micronutrients may participate in regulating GVHD risk after allogeneic HSCT. In this review, we summarize recent advances in our understanding with respect to the potential role of micronutrients in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic GVHD, focusing on vitamins A and D.

Abstract
Kidney dysfunction is a common complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with proven negative impact on early and long-term mortality. Causes of this complication are diverse, usually overlapping, and poorly understood. Therefore, management implicates multidirectional investigations and simultaneous treatment of suspected causes. The etiology is frequently unconfirmed due to a lack of specific markers and prevalence of contraindications to renal biopsy among HCT recipients. Herein, we provide a summary of etiology and propose an algorithm for evaluation of kidney injury after HCT. We also map out the most urgent areas for research that aim to identify patients at risk of severe renal injury and develop nephroprotective strategies.

Abstract
We evaluated inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) 1 and IMPDH2 pharmacogenetics in 247 recipient-donor pairs after nonmyeloablative hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Patients were conditioned with total body irradiation + fludarabine and received grafts from related or unrelated donors (10% HLA mismatch), with postgraft immunosuppression of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) with a calcineurin inhibitor. Recipient and donor IMPDH genotypes (rs11706052, rs2278294, rs2278293) were not associated with day 28 T cell chimerism, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), disease relapse, cytomegalovirus reactivation, nonrelapse mortality, or overall survival. Recipient IMPDH1 rs2278293 genotype was associated with a lower incidence of chronic GVHD (hazard ratio, .72; P = .008) in nonmyeloablative HCT recipients. Additional studies are needed to confirm these results with the goal of identifying predictive biomarkers to MMF that lower GVHD.

Abstract
AIM To determine variation of CYP2B6 gene within the genetically specific Croatian Roma (Gypsy) population originating from India and to examine it in the worldwide perspective. MATERIALS & METHODS Seven SNP loci (rs12721655, rs2279343, rs28399499, rs34097093, rs3745274, rs7260329 and rs8192709) were genotyped in 439 subjects using Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) method. RESULTS The Croatian Roma took an outlying position in CYP2B6 variation from the worldwide perspective mainly due to their exceptionally high minor allele frequency (MAF) for rs8192709 (12.8%), and lower for rs2279343 (21.1%) compared with south Asian populations. CONCLUSION This study provides the first data of several CYP2B6 polymorphisms in Roma population and indicates the need for systematic investigation of the most important pharmacogenes' variants in this large, transnationally isolated population worldwide.

Abstract
Multiple candidate gene-association studies of non-HLA single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and outcomes after blood or marrow transplant (BMT) have been conducted. We identified 70 publications reporting 45 SNPs in 36 genes significantly associated with disease-related mortality, progression-free survival, transplant-related mortality, and/or overall survival after BMT. Replication and validation of these SNP associations were performed using DISCOVeRY-BMT (Determining the Influence of Susceptibility COnveying Variants Related to one-Year mortality after BMT), a well-powered genome-wide association study consisting of 2 cohorts, totaling 2888 BMT recipients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome, and their HLA-matched unrelated donors, reported to the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. Gene-based tests were used to assess the aggregate effect of SNPs on outcome. None of the previously reported significant SNPs replicated at P < .05 in DISCOVeRY-BMT. Validation analyses showed association with one previously reported donor SNP at P < .05 and survival; more associations would be anticipated by chance alone. No gene-based tests were significant at P < .05. Functional annotation with publicly available data shows these candidate SNPs most likely do not have biochemical function; only 13% of candidate SNPs correlate with gene expression or are predicted to impact transcription factor binding. Of these, half do not impact the candidate gene of interest; the other half correlate with expression of multiple genes. These findings emphasize the peril of pursing candidate approaches and the importance of adequately powered tests of unbiased genome-wide associations with BMT clinical outcomes given the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
Mucositis is a complex, dose-limiting toxicity of chemotherapy or radiotherapy that leads to painful mouth ulcers, difficulty eating or swallowing, gastrointestinal distress, and reduced quality of life for patients with cancer. Mucositis is most common for those undergoing high-dose chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and for those being treated for malignancies of the head and neck. Treatment and management of mucositis remain challenging. It is expected that multiple genes are involved in the formation, severity, and persistence of mucositis. We used Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), a novel network-based approach that integrates complex intracellular and intercellular interactions involved in diseases, to systematically explore the molecular complexity of mucositis. As a first step, we searched the literature to identify genes that harbor or are close to the genetic variants significantly associated with mucositis. Our literature review identified 27 candidate genes, of which ERCC1, XRCC1, and MTHFR were the most frequently studied for mucositis. On the basis of this 27-gene list, we used IPA to generate gene networks for mucositis. The most biologically significant novel molecules identified through IPA analyses included TP53, CTNNB1, MYC, RB1, P38 MAPK, and EP300. Additionally, uracil degradation II (reductive) and thymine degradation pathways (p = 1.06-08) were most significant. Finally, utilizing 66 SNPs within the 8 most connected IPA-derived candidate molecules, we conducted a genetic association study for oral mucositis in the head and neck cancer patients who were treated using chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy (186 head and neck cancer patients with oral mucositis vs. 699 head and neck cancer patients without oral mucositis). The top ranked gene identified through this association analysis was RB1 (rs2227311, p-value = 0.034, odds ratio = 0.67). In conclusion, gene network analysis identified novel molecules and biological processes, including pathways related to inflammation and oxidative stress, that are relevant to mucositis development, thus providing the basis for future studies to improve the management and treatment of mucositis in patients with cancer.

Abstract
We evaluated the impact of recipient and cord blood unit (CBU) genetic polymorphisms related to immune response on outcomes after unrelated cord blood transplantations (CBTs). Pretransplant DNA samples from 696 CBUs with malignant diseases were genotyped for NLRP1, NLRP2, NLRP3, TIRAP/Mal, IL10, REL, TNFRSF1B, and CTLA4. HLA compatibility was 6 of 6 in 10%, 5 of 6 in 39%, and ≥4 of 6 in 51% of transplants. Myeloablative conditioning was used in 80%, and in vivo T-cell depletion in 81%, of cases. The median number of total nucleated cells infused was 3.4 × 107/kg. In multivariable analysis, patients receiving CBUs with GG-CTLA4 genotype had poorer neutrophil recovery (hazard ratio [HR], 1.33; P = .02), increased nonrelapse mortality (NRM) (HR, 1.50; P < .01), and inferior disease-free survival (HR, 1.41; P = .02). We performed the same analysis in a more homogeneous subset of cohort 1 (cohort 2, n = 305) of patients who received transplants for acute leukemia, all given a myeloablative conditioning regimen, and with available allele HLA typing (HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1). In this more homogeneous but smaller cohort, we were able to demonstrate that GG-CTLA4-CBU was associated with increased NRM (HR, 1.85; P = .01). Use of GG-CTLA4-CBU was associated with higher mortality after CBT, which may be a useful criterion for CBU selection, when multiple CBUs are available.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics can explain the inter-individual differences in response to drugs, including methotrexate (MTX) used for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) prophylaxis during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In real-world practice, preplanned MTX dose is arbitrarily modified according to observed toxicity which can lead to unexpected and severe aGVHD development. We aimed to validate the influence of MTHFR C677T polymorphism on the outcomes of allogenic HSCT in a relatively under-represented homogenous Asian population. A total of 177 patients were divided into 677TT group versus 677C-carriers (677CT+677CC), and clinical outcomes along with baseline characteristics were analyzed and compared. Although there was a tendency towards increased peak liver function test results and accordingly greater delta values between the highest and the baseline in 677TT group, we found no associations between genotypes and hepatotoxicity. However, the incidence of acute liver GVHD (≥ grade 2) was significantly higher in the 677TT group than in the 677CC + 677CT group (P = 0.016). A total of 25 patients (14.1%) expired due to transplantation related mortality (TRM) during the first 180 days after HSCT. Patients carrying 677TT genotype were more likely to experience early TRM than 677C-carriers. The same pattern was observed in the cumulative TRM rate, and 677TT genotype patients were more prone to cumulative TRM (P = 0.010). This translated into shorter OS for patients with 677TT compared to 677C-carriers (P = 0.010). The 3-year survival after HSCT was 29.9% for 677TT cases and 47.1% for 677C-carriers. The multivariate analysis identified 677TT genotype (HR = 1.775. 95% CI 1.122–2.808, P = 0.014) and non-CR state (HR = 2.841. 95% CI 1.627–4.960, P<0.001) as predictors for survival. In conclusion, the MTHFR 677TT genotype appears to be associated with acute liver GVHD, and represent a risk factor for TRM and survival in patients undergoing HSCT with MTX as GVHD prophylaxis.

Replication of associations between genetic polymorphisms and chronic graft-versus-host disease. Blood 2016; 128:2450-2456. [PMID: 27758874 DOI: 10.1182/blood-2016-07-728063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2016] [Accepted: 09/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Previous studies have identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. The current study determined whether these associations could be replicated in large cohorts of donors and recipients. Each SNP was tested with cohorts of patients having the same donor type (HLA-matched related, unrelated, or both) reported in the original publication, and testing was limited to the same genome (recipient or donor) and genetic model (dominant, recessive, or allelic) reported in the original study. The 21 SNPs reported in this study represent 19 genes, and the analysis encompassed 22 SNP association tests. The hazard ratio (HR) point estimates and risk ratio point estimates corresponding to odds ratios in previous studies consistently fall outside the 95% confidence intervals of HR estimates in the current study. Despite the large size of the cohorts available for the current study, the 95% confidence intervals for most HRs did not exclude 1.0. Three SNPs representing CTLA4, HPSE, and IL1R1 showed evidence of association with the risk of chronic GVHD in unrelated donor-recipient pairs from 1 cohort, but none of these associations was replicated when tested in unrelated donor-recipient pairs from an independent cohort. Two SNPs representing CCR6 and FGFR1OP showed possible associations with the risk of chronic GVHD in related donor-recipient pairs but not in unrelated donor-recipient pairs. These results remain to be tested for replication in other cohorts of related donor-recipient pairs.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6), mainly expressed in the liver and brain, is important for processing a number of widely used drugs. Variations in CYP2B6 expression are associated with decreased drug efficacy or adverse effects in some patients. Although CYP2B6 genetic variants are associated with its differential expression, epigenetic mechanisms affecting CYP2B6 gene regulation have not been established. Sequence analysis identified 29 domains in the CYP2B6 mRNA transcript that could be subject to regulation by microRNAs. Inverse correlations were found in human hepatocytes for the levels of the microRNAs hsa-miR-504-5p and hsa-miR-25-3p compared with CYP2B6 mRNA. Reporter gene assays showed that hsa-miR-25-3p suppresses CYP2B6 expression by targeting a specific sequence in the 3'-untranslated region of the mRNA transcript. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays confirmed that hsa-miR-25-3p forms stable complexes with its cognate mRNA sequence and that it recruits cellular factors, including Ago-4. Transfection of HepaRG cells with hsa-miR-25-3p mimics inhibited expression of the endogenous CYP2B6 gene and it also decreased rifampicin-dependent induction of CYP2B6 at the mRNA and protein levels. In summary, in silico and in vitro analyses show that hsa-miR-25-3p suppresses CYP2B6 expression in human liver cells via an epigenetic mechanism.

Abstract
This retrospective chart review study aimed to assess vitamin D status and identify risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency and bone parameters in children with cancer at admission. The data of 86 (50 males and 36 females) patients between April 2013 and June 2015 were analyzed. Calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 25(OH)D, age, gender, diagnostic category, body mass index, duration of complaints, and season of blood sampling were recorded. Median age was 7.17 years (range 0.31-17.40) in 29 hematological malignancy and 57 solid tumor patients. According to cut-off level of 20 ng/ml, 63% of children with cancer had vitamin D deficiency at diagnosis with a median 25(OH)D of 16.75 ng/ml. The mean vitamin D value of children >10 years was significantly low in comparison to that observed in younger children [11.83, 95% confidence interval (CI) = = 8.85-14.81 ng/ml vs. 19.81, 95% CI = = 17.02-22.60 ng/ml]. Vitamin D measurement between November and May was a risk factor for vitamin D deficiency (P < 0.05). The frequency of hypocalcemia and hypophosphatemia was not different between two groups of vitamin D. Further longitudinal studies are needed to investigate whether monitoring vitamin D status and supplementation in children with cancer might prevent future complications related to vitamin D deficiency.

Abstract
Overall survival following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has improved over the past two decades through better patient selection and advances in HLA typing, supportive care, and infection prophylaxis. Nonetheless, mortality rates are still unsatisfactory and transplant-related mortality remains a major cause of death after unrelated allogeneic HCT. Since there are no known pre-HCT, non-HLA biologic predictors of survival following transplant, for over a decade, scientists have been investigating the role of non-HLA germline genetic variation in survival and treatment-related mortality after HCT. Variation in single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has the potential to impact chemotherapy, radiation, and immune responses, leading to different post-HCT survival outcomes. In this paper, we address the current knowledge of the contribution of genetic variation to survival following HCT and discuss study design and methodology for investigating HCT survival on a genomic scale.

Abstract
AIM A population pharmacokinetic (PPK) analysis was conducted to describe the influence of GSTA1 polymorphisms on intravenous busulfan in adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. PATIENTS & METHODS A PPK model was developed from 36 patients by a one-compartment model with first-order elimination. RESULTS The typical value of clearance and volume of distribution were 11.0 l/h and 42.4 l, respectively. Clearance decreased by 15% and area under the concentration-time curves (AUCs) increased with GSTA1 variants compared with wild-type (both p < 0.05). Subtherapeutic AUCs were seen only in wild-type patients. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first PPK study to suggest that GSTA1 polymorphisms in adults are associated with busulfan PK.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established therapeutic procedure for several congenital and acquired disorders, both malignant and nonmalignant. Despite the great improvements in HSCT clinical practices over the last few decades, complications, such as graft vs. host disease (GVHD) and sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS), are still largely unpredictable and remain the major causes of morbidity and mortality. Both donor and patient genetic background might influence the success of bone marrow transplantation and could at least partially explain the inter-individual variability in HSCT outcome. This review summarizes some of the recent studies on candidate gene polymorphisms in HSCT, with particular reference to pediatric cohorts. The interest is especially focused on pharmacogenetic variants affecting myeloablative and immunosuppressive drugs, although genetic traits involved in SOS susceptibility and transplant-related mortality are also reviewed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the impact of ex vivo T cell depleted (TCD) by CD34+ selection on the incidence and severity of oropharyngeal mucositis (OM) after myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) with total body irradiation (TBI) conditioning. This approach has the advantage of avoiding methotrexate for graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed the incidence and severity of OM in a cohort of 105 consecutive patients who underwent CD34+ selected (peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) from human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical siblings) allo-SCT with total body irradiation (TBI) conditioning. OM was graded by the World Health organization (WHO) and the Bearman regimen-related toxicity (RRT) scales. RESULTS The incidence of WHO grade 3-4 OM was 34.3 %. There were no cases of grade 3-4 OM by the RRT scale. Significant correlation was found between the severity of OM and the use of intravenous (IV) narcotic medications (r (2) = 0.15, p = 0.004), total parenteral nutrition (TPN; r (2) = 0.68, p < 0.001), and hospital length of stay (LOS) (r (2) = 0.12, p = 0.01). DISCUSSION TBI-induced OM can inflict significant morbidity in the early transplant period, and the incidence of WHO grade 3-4 OM can exceed 50 % when methotrexate is used for GVHD prophylaxis. In the CD34+ selected setting, methotrexate is avoided and the incidence of WHO grade 3-4 OM, use of TPN, and need for narcotic analgesia appear to be lower than historic evidence from standard T-replete allogeneic transplantation. CONCLUSION We conclude that toxicity from OM is tolerable in CD34+ selected allo-SCT and should be prospectively measured in randomized trials comparing CD34+ selection versus T-replete transplantation.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a procedure in which infusion of hematopoietic stem cells is used to reestablish hematopoietic function in patients with damaged or defective bone marrow or immune systems. Early and late complications following allogeneic HSCT include acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), donor rejection, graft failure, relapse of primary malignancy, conditioning-related toxicity, immunodeficiency and infections. Immunology has a central role in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Any appreciation of the immunological mechanism involved in engraftment, GVHD, the development of tolerance, immune reconstitution, and the control of malignancy requires some understanding of the immunologic basis for immune reactions provoked by grafting tissue from one individual to another. In the future it should be possible to learn what gene(s) must be activated and which must be repressed to force stem cells into division without maturation; to engineer a mechanism into the cells that stops proliferation and sets the stage for amplification; to search if there could be a universal donor cell line, neatly packaged and stabilized in sealed vials and distributed by the pharmaceutical industry; to modify the transplanted cells in such a way that they have a proliferative advantage over those of the host and to deliver the lethal blow against the neoplasm, perhaps the cells that are infused will be engineered in such a way as to be able to distinguish between normal host cells and tumor.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE Many studies have been conducted on the association between the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette, subfamily B, member 1 (ABCB1) gene C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk, however, the previously published findings remain controversial. Thus, a meta-analysis was carried out to accurately evaluate the effect of this polymorphism on leukemia susceptibility. METHODS A computerized literature search was conducted of PubMed, Elsevier database, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, and Wanfang Database, to find published case-control studies exploring the relationship between ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to assess the strength of association. RESULTS A total of 17 studies of 2,431 cases and 3,028 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The results of overall comparisons suggest that there is a significant association between ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk under two genetic models (TT vs CC: OR=1.39, 95% CI=1.04-1.84, P=0.02; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.20, 95% CI=1.06-1.36, P=0.004). In the subgroup analyses by ethnicity, age, and leukemia subtype, a significant association was found in Caucasian (CT vs CC: OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.03-1.45, P=0.02; TT vs CC: OR=1.34, 95% CI=1.10-1.64, P=0.004; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.27, 95% CI=1.08-1.49, P=0.004), adult leukemia (CT vs CC: OR=1.46, 95% CI=1.17-1.83, P=0.001; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.43, 95% CI=1.01-2.03, P=0.04), and lymphocytic leukemia (TT vs CC: OR=1.73, 95% CI=1.19-2.51, P=0.004; TT vs CC+CT: OR=1.62, 95% CI=1.10-2.38, P=0.01; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.28, 95% CI=1.10-1.48, P=0.001). CONCLUSION The meta-analysis suggests that ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism is associated with increased risk of leukemia.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide (Cy) is a prodrug that depends on bioactivation by hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes for its cytotoxicity. We evaluated the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYP enzymes on the efficacy of autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for lymphoma. SNPs of 22 genes were analyzed in 93 patients with Hodgkin (n = 52) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 41) treated with high-dose Cy followed by autologous HCT between 2004 and 2012. Preparative regimens contained Cy (120 mg/kg) combined with carmustine/etoposide (n = 61) or Cy (6000 mg/m(2)) with total body irradiation (n = 32). Lack of complete remission as measured by pretransplant positron emission tomography was the sole clinical factor associated with increased risk of relapse (HR, 2.1). In genomic analysis, we identified a single SNP (rs3211371) in exon 9 (C > T) of the CYP2B6 gene (allele designation 2B6*5) that significantly impacted patient outcomes. After adjusting for disease status and conditioning regimen, patients with the CYP2B6*1/*5 genotype had a higher 2-year relapse rate (HR, 3.3; 95% CI, 1.6 to 6.5; P = .041) and decreased overall survival (HR, 13.5; 95% CI, 3.5 to 51.9; P = .008) than patients with the wild-type allele. Two-year progression-free survival for patients with 2 hypofunctional CYP2B6 variant genotypes (*5 and *6) was only 11% (95% CI, 1% to 39%) compared with 67% (95% CI, 55% to 77%) for patients with the wild-type CYP2B6*1 allele in exon 9. Our results suggest that CYP2B6 SNPs influence the efficacy of high-dose Cy and significantly reduce the success of autologous HCT for lymphoma patients with the CYP2B6*5 variant.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a high-risk procedure that is offered, with curative intent, to patients with malignant and nonmalignant disease. The clinical benefits of personalization of therapy by genotyping have been demonstrated by the reduction in transplant related mortality from donor-recipient HLA matching. However, defining the relationship between genotype and transplant conditioning agents is yet to be translated into clinical practice. A number of the therapeutic agents used in stem cell transplant preparative regimens have pharmacokinetic parameters that predict benefit of incorporating pharmacogenomic data into dosing strategies. Busulfan, cyclophosphamide, thio-TEPA and etoposide have well-described drug metabolism pathways, however candidate gene studies have identified there is a gap in the identification of pharmacogenomic data that can be used to improve transplant outcomes. Incorporating pharmacogenomics into pharmacokinetic modeling may demonstrate the therapeutic benefits of genotyping in transplant preparative regimen agents.

Abstract
Effective immunosuppression is mandatory to prevent graft-versus-host disease and to achieve a successful clinical outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Here we tested whether germline single nucleotide polymorphisms in 20 candidate genes related to methotrexate and cyclosporine metabolism and activity influence the incidence of graft-versus-host disease in patients who undergo stem cell transplantation for hematologic disorders. Recipient genetic status of the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family C1 and adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family C2 transporters, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/ inosine monophosphate cyclohydrolase within the methotrexate pathway, and nuclear factor of activated T cells (cytoplasmic 1) loci exhibit a remarkable influence on severe acute graft-versus-host disease prevalence. Indeed, an increased risk of acute graft-versus-host disease was observed in association with single nucleotide polymorphisms located in 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/inosine monophosphate cyclohydrolase (hazard ratio=3.04; P=0.002), nuclear factor of activated T cells (cytoplasmic 1) (hazard ratio=2.69; P=0.004), adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family C2 (hazard ratio=3.53; P=0.0018) and adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family C1 (hazard ratio=3.67; P=0.0005). While donor single nucleotide polymorphisms of dihydrofolate reductase and solute carrier family 19 (member 1) genes are associated with a reduced risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (hazard ratio=0.32-0.41; P=0.0009-0.008), those of nuclear factor of activated T cells (cytoplasmic 2) are found to increase such risk (hazard ratio=3.85; P=0.0004). None of the tested single nucleotide polymorphisms was associated with the occurrence of chronic graft-versus-host disease. In conclusion, by targeting drug-related biologically relevant genes, this work emphasizes the potential role of germline biomarkers in predicting acute graft-versus-host disease. Further investigations are warranted to improve our understanding of these relationships to personalize immunosuppressive therapy and optimize outcomes.

Abstract
Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome is a complication of therapy for pediatric ALL and may be modified by thiopurine methyltransferase activity as well as by MTHFR genotype. We assessed TPMT *3A, *3B, *3C, and MTHFR C677T and A1298C germline genetic polymorphisms among 351 patients enrolled in the thioguanine treatment arm of CCG-1952 clinical trial. TPMT and MTHFR C677T genotypes were not associated with SOS risk. The combination of MTHFR and TPMT variant genotypes was not associated with SOS risk. These suggest that germline genetic variation in TPMT and MTHFR do not significantly alter SOS risk in patients exposed to thioguanine.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) is a life-threatening early complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and until now, examinations about the influence of genetic risk factors are extremely rare. The purpose of this study was to identify an association between heparanase (HPSE) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and SOS in children undergoing allogeneic HSCT. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the distribution of the both HPSE SNPs rs4693608 and rs4364254 and the occurrence of SOS after allogeneic HSCT in 160 children with malignant and non-malignant diseases. RESULTS Patients with HPSE genotypes GG or AG of rs4693608 (G>A) had a significantly reduced incidence of SOS on day 100 after HSCT compared to patients with genotype AA (4.7 vs. 14.3 %, P = 0.038). In addition, incidence of SOS in patients with genotype CC or CT of rs4364254 (C>T) was significantly decreased in comparison with patients with genotype TT (2.3 vs. 14.7 %, P = 0.004). Interestingly, no patient with genotype CC developed SOS. Because both SNPs co-occur in vivo, we generated subsets: AA-TT, GG-CC, and a group with remaining SNP combinations. We found significant differences between all three patient groups (P = 0.035). Patients with AA-TT showed the highest incidence of SOS (16.7 %), while SOS did not appear in patients with GG-CC (0 %) and residual combinations were numerically in-between (4.9 %). An impact caused by main patient and donor characteristics, established risk factors for SOS, and conditioning regimen could be excluded in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSIONS HPSE polymorphisms turned out to be significant independent risk factors (P = 0.030) for development of SOS and should be evaluated in further trials.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an accepted treatment for a variety of hematologic malignancies. The profound immunosuppression these patients experience adversely affects their risk of infection. This risk is much higher than in the general population and requires aggressive diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. The chapter will outline the major infections after HSCT.

Abstract
More than 100 medications approved by the US Food and Drug Administration include pharmacogenetic biomarkers in the drug label, many with cancer indications referencing germ line DNA variations. With the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and its rapidly increasing uptake into cancer research and clinical practice, an enormous amount of data to inform documented gene-drug associations will be collected that must be exploited to optimize patient benefit. This review focuses on the implementation of germ line cancer pharmacogenetics in clinical practice. Specifically, it discusses the importance of germ line variation in cancer and the role of NGS in pharmacogenetic discovery and implementation. In the context of a scenario in which massive amounts of NGS-based genetic information will be increasingly available to health stakeholders, this review explores the ongoing debate regarding the threshold of evidence necessary for implementation, provides an overview of recommendations in cancer by professional organizations and regulatory bodies, and discusses limitations of current guidelines and strategies to improve third-party coverage.

Abstract
I.v. BU is frequently used in the conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (allo-HSCT); however, overall outcomes, incidence of hepatic sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS) and its risk factors are not well known. With this aim, we performed a study on 257 AML adult recipients. Seattle Criteria were used for diagnosis and classification of SOS. The median age was 44 years. Donors were HLA-identical siblings in 60%, HLA-matched unrelated in 29% and HLA mismatched in 11%. Conditioning regimen was myeloablative in 84% (i.v. BU with CY was the most frequently used regimen) and it was reduced intensity in 16% (i.v. BU associated with fludarabine). Acute and chronic GVHD was observed in 28% and 44%, respectively. Two-year incidence of non-relapse mortality was 16±2% and 2-year leukemia-free survival for patients in CR1, CR2 and non remission at HSCT were 55±4%, 58±7%, and 20±5%, respectively. At 6 months, incidence of SOS was 7.8±2%; and it was severe in eight patients (3%). Factors associated with the occurrence of SOS were: HLA-mismatched donor HSCT (P=0.002) and patients transplanted in non-remission (P=0.002). In conclusion, outcomes of HSCT using i.v. BU are encouraging in this setting, SOS incidence is low and it is influenced by the type of donor and disease status at the time of transplant.

The association of cytochrome P450 genetic polymorphisms with sulfolane formation and the efficacy of a busulfan-based conditioning regimen in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2013; 14:263-71. [PMID: 24165757 DOI: 10.1038/tpj.2013.38] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2013] [Revised: 08/06/2013] [Accepted: 09/09/2013] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) and flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) likely have a role in the oxidation of intermediate metabolites of busulfan (Bu). In vitro studies to investigate the involvement of these enzymes are cumbersome because of the volatile nature of the intermediate metabolite tetrahydrothiophene (THT) and the lack of sensitive quantitation methods. This study explored the association between the CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2B6 and FMO3 genotypes and sulfolane (Su, a water soluble metabolite of Bu) plasma levels in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The relationship between these genotypes and the effectiveness of myeloablative conditioning was also analyzed. Sixty-six children receiving an intravenous Bu-based myeloablative conditioning regimen were genotyped for common functional variant alleles in CYP2C9 (*2 and *3), CYP2C19 (*2 and *17), FMO3 (rs2266780, rs2266782 and rs1736557) and CYP2B6 (*5 and *9). The plasma levels of Bu and its metabolite Su were measured after the ninth Bu dose in a subset of 44 patients for whom plasma samples were available. The ratio of Bu to Su was considered the metabolic ratio (MR) and was compared across the genotype groups. Higher MRs were observed in CYP2C9*2 and *3 allele carriers (mean±s.d.: 7.8±3.6 in carriers vs 4.4±2.2 in non-carriers; P=0.003). An increased incidence of graft failure was observed among patients with an MR>5 compared with those with MR values <5 (20% vs 0%; P=0.02). In contrast, a significantly higher incidence of relapse and graft failure (evaluated as event-free survival) was observed in patients with malignant disease who carried CYP2B6 alleles with reduced function on both chromosomes compared with carriers of at least one normal allele (100% vs 40%; P=0.0001). These results suggest that CYP2C9 has a role in the oxidation reactions of THT and indicate that it may be possible to predict the efficacy of Bu-based myeloablative conditioning before HSCT on the basis of CYP genotypes and Bu MRs.
