Abstract
Nucleobase and nucleoside analogs (NAs) play important roles in cancer therapy. Although there are obvious individual differences in NA treatments, most NAs lack direct relationships between their plasma concentration and efficacy or adverse effects. Accumulating evidence suggests that the intracellular active metabolite levels of NAs predict patient outcomes. This article reviewed the relationships between NA intracellular active metabolite levels and their efficacy or adverse effects. The factors affecting the formation of intracellular active metabolites and combination regimens that elevate intracellular active metabolite levels were also reviewed. Given the mechanism of NA cytotoxicity, NA intracellular active metabolite levels may be predictive of clinical outcomes. Many clinical studies support this hypothesis. Therefore, the monitoring of intracellular active metabolite levels is beneficial for individualized NA treatment. However, to perform clinical monitoring in practice, well-designed studies are needed to explore the optimal threshold or range and the appropriate regimen adjustment strategies based on these parameters.

Role of Pharmacogenetics in the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Systematic Review and Future Perspectives. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14030559. [PMID: 35335935 PMCID: PMC8954545 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14030559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by remarkable toxicity and great variability in response to treatment. Plenteous pharmacogenetic studies have already been published for classical therapies, such as cytarabine or anthracyclines, but such studies remain scarce for newer drugs. There is evidence of the relevance of polymorphisms in response to treatment, although most studies have limitations in terms of cohort size or standardization of results. The different responses associated with genetic variability include both increased drug efficacy and toxicity and decreased response or resistance to treatment. A broad pharmacogenetic understanding may be useful in the design of dosing strategies and treatment guidelines. The aim of this study is to perform a review of the available publications and evidence related to the pharmacogenetics of AML, compiling those studies that may be useful in optimizing drug administration.

Abstract
Conventional chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia regimens generally encompass an intensive induction phase, in order to achieve a morphological remission in terms of bone marrow blasts (<5%). The majority of cases are classified as Primary Induction Response (PIR); unfortunately, 15% of children do not achieve remission and are defined Primary Induction Failure (PIF). This study aims to characterize the gene expression profile of PIF in children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), in order to detect molecular pathways dysfunctions and identify potential biomarkers. Given that NUP98-rearrangements are enriched in PIF-AML patients, we investigated the association of NUP98-driven genes in primary chemoresistance. Therefore, 85 expression arrays, deposited on GEO database, and 358 RNAseq AML samples, from TARGET program, were analyzed for “Differentially Expressed Genes” (DEGs) between NUP98+ and NUP98-, identifying 110 highly confident NUP98/PIF-associated DEGs. We confirmed, by qRT-PCR, the overexpression of nine DEGs, selected on the bases of the diagnostic accuracy, in a local cohort of PIF patients: SPINK2, TMA7, SPCS2, CDCP1, CAPZA1, FGFR1OP2, MAN1A2, NT5C3A and SRP54. In conclusion, the integrated analysis of NUP98 mutational analysis and transcriptome profiles allowed the identification of novel putative biomarkers for the prediction of PIF in AML.

Evaluation of the impact of single-nucleotide polymorphisms on treatment response, survival and toxicity with cytarabine and anthracyclines in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia: a systematic review protocol. Syst Rev 2019; 8:109. [PMID: 31053175 PMCID: PMC6499963 DOI: 10.1186/s13643-019-1011-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2018] [Accepted: 04/01/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute myeloid leukaemia is the most common type of acute leukaemia in the world. Thus, the study of genetic alterations, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), has contributed to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying leukaemogenesis, to improve the prognosis and to increase the survival of these patients. However, there is no synthesis of evidence in the literature evaluating the quality of evidence and the risk of bias in the studies such that the results can be translated. Thus, this systematic review protocol aims to assess the impact of SNPs on genes involved in the metabolism of cytarabine and anthracyclines with respect to survival, treatment response and toxicity in patients with AML. METHODS This systematic review protocol is based on PRISMA guidelines and includes searches in six electronic databases, contact with authors, repositories of clinical trials, and cancer research. Studies published in peer-reviewed journals will be included if they meet the eligibility criteria: (a) samples composed of individuals of any age, of both sexes, with a diagnosis of AML, regardless of the time of diagnosis of disease; (b) participants who have undergone or are undergoing cytarabine- and anthracycline-associated chemotherapy or cytarabine-only chemotherapy; and (c) in vivo studies. Studies that include patients with promyelocytic leukaemia (Fab type 3) will be excluded because this disease has different treatment. The process of study selection, data extraction, and evaluation/synthesis will be performed in duplicate. Assessment of methodological quality and risk of bias will be performed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool for randomized clinical studies and the Downs-Black Checklist for cohort and case-control studies. The synthesis of evidence will include the level of evidence based on the GRADE protocol. A meta-analysis of the association between SNPs and outcomes may be performed based on Cochrane guidelines. DISCUSSION It is expected that clinical decisions for AML patients will consider evidence-based practices to contribute to better patient management. In this way, we will be able to define how to treat patients with AML to improve their survival and quality of life. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42018100750.

Abstract
AIM Cytarabine (Ara-C), a mainstay of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment, is a prodrug requiring activation to ara-CTP for its antileukemic activity. Aim of this study was to evaluate impact of genetic variants in the key genes involved in ara-C metabolism on the leukemic cell intracellular levels of ara-CTP. METHOD We investigated SNPs in 14 ara-C metabolic-pathway genes, for association with intracellular ara-CTP levels, in leukemic cells obtained post-initiation of cytarabine infusion in pediatric AML patients (n = 68). RESULTS Nine SNPs were significantly associated with leukemic cell intracellular concentration of ara-CTP. A comprehensive ara-CTP-SNP-score (ACSS) was further developed from top four SNPs identified in regression model. Patients were classified into three groups based on ACSS: high-ACSS (score >0), intermediate-ACSS (score = 0) and low-ACSS (score <0). ACSS designation was significant predictor of intracellular ara-CTP levels (p = 0.00012), suggesting a cumulative or synergistic effect of the significant SNPs. CONCLUSION ACSS score designation holds promise in definfing ara-C dose. Validation of the clinical utility of ACSS score in other independent cohorts will help identification of patients with potentially lower or higher levels of the ara-CTP in leukemic cells, thereby opening up opportunities for dose management to reduce toxicity and enhance efficacy.

Abstract
Antimetabolites, in particular nucleobase and nucleoside analogues, are cytotoxic drugs that, starting from the small field of paediatric oncology, in combination with other chemotherapeutics, have revolutionised clinical oncology and transformed cancer into a curable disease. However, even though combination chemotherapy, together with radiation, surgery and immunotherapy, can nowadays cure almost all types of cancer, we still fail to achieve this for a substantial proportion of patients. The understanding of differences in metabolism, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tumour biology between patients that can be cured and patients that cannot, builds the scientific basis for rational therapy improvements. Here, we summarise current knowledge of how tumour-specific and patient-specific factors can dictate resistance to nucleobase/nucleoside analogues, and which strategies of re-sensitisation exist. We revisit well-established hurdles to treatment efficacy, like the blood-brain barrier and reduced deoxycytidine kinase activity, but will also discuss the role of novel resistance factors, such as SAMHD1. A comprehensive appreciation of the complex mechanisms that underpin the failure of chemotherapy will hopefully inform future strategies of personalised medicine.

Abstract
While early pharmacogenomic studies have primarily been carried out in Western populations, there has been a notable increase in the number of Asian studies over the past decade. We systematically reviewed all pharmacogenomic studies conducted in Asia published before 2016 to highlight trends and identify research gaps in Asia. We observed that pharmacogenomic research in Asia was dominated by larger developed countries, notably Japan and Korea, and mainly driven by local researchers. Studies were focused on drugs acting on the CNS, chemotherapeutics and anticoagulants. Significantly, several novel pharmacogenomic associations have emerged from Asian studies. These developments are highly encouraging for the strength of regional scientific and clinical community and propound the importance of discovery studies in different populations.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and biologically heterogeneous malignancy that is primarily treated with combinations of cytarabine and anthracyclines. Although this scheme remains effective in most of the patients, variability of outcomes in patients has been partly related with their genetic variability. Several pharmacogenetic studies have analyzed the impact of polymorphisms in genes encoding transporters, metabolizers or molecular targets of chemotherapy agents. A systematic review on all eligible studies was carried out in order to estimate the effect of polymorphisms of anthracyclines and cytarabine pathways on efficacy and toxicity of AML treatment. Other emerging genes recently studied in AML, such as DNA repair genes, genes potentially related to chemotherapy response or AML prognosis, have also been included.
