Pharmcogenetics in oncology Pierre Laurent-Puig INSERM, U775 Molecular basis of xenobiotic response AP-HP Hôpital Européen Georges Pompidou Molecular Oncology and Pharmacogenetic laboratory
Introduction • Multiple active regimens for cancer but: • Variation in response rate to the different regimen • Unpredictable toxicity for the different regimens • With choice came the time to decision • Need to the development of tools which help clinicians
Pharmacogenetics Anticancer drugs Genetic factors Environmental factors Variations in drug response or toxicity Transport Metabolism Drug target Cell Drug interactions Lee et al. Oncologist. 2005;10:104-111.
Introduction • Pharmacogenetics : the science of incorporating information of inherited genetic variability into predicting treatment response. • Polymorphisms in both individual’s genome as well as tumor genome will affect drug toxicity and drug response. • Drug-related toxicity will be predicted mainly by genotyping non tumour tissues. • Drug response will be predicted both by genotyping non tumour and tumour tissues.

DPD and 5-FU toxicity • IVS14+1G>A Polymorphism leads to the skipping of exon 14. • As a result, the mature DPD mRNA lacks a 165 nucleotide segment encoding amino acids 581–635 • Prevalence of IVS14+1G>A 0.75% to 2.2% van Kuilenburg et al. Eur J Cancer. 2004;40:939-950.

Morel A. Mol Cancer Ther 2006:5:2895-904.
Functional consequences In vitro studies demonstrated that an increasing number of tandem repeats leads to an increase in TS gene expression and TS enzyme activity The SNP in the second repeat of the 3R allele disrupts the upstream stimulatory factor (USF) consensus element and therefore decreases the in vitro transcriptional activation of TS The TS 3’UTR del6 allele may determine low TS mRNA stability and low TS expression in comparison with TS 3’UTR ins 6 allele TS Polymorphisms Polymorphisms • One in the enhancer region of TS consisting in a double or triple repeat of a 28-base pair sequence (2R or 3R) • G>C SNP in the second of the three 28-bp repeats produces two additional alleles (3RG or 3RC) • One in the 3’UTR region consisting of an insertion or a deletion of 6 bp Desai et al. Oncogene. 2003;22:6621-6628.

E428A MTHFR Polymorphisms A222V • Two polymorphisms may alter enzyme activity • 677C->T (Ala222Val) increases MTHFR thermolability • 1298A->T (Glu428Ala) decreases MTHFR activity • Since a loss in MTHFR enzymatic activity may favor an increase in intracellular CH2FH4 concentrations, it can be hypothesized that tumors exhibiting mutated MTHFR genotypes may be more sensitive to 5-FU cytotoxicity.

GSTP1 Polymorphisms I105V A114V • Two non synonymous coding polymorphisms • Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at residue 105 Ile105Val substitution (39%) • Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at residue 114 Ala114Val (12%) • Four haplotypes *A Ile105+Ala114; *B Val105+Ala114; *C Val105+Val114; *D Ile105+Val114 • Variability in enzymatic activities depending of the substrate • Lower thermal stability for the 105 Val allele • Variability in detox properties according to the haplotypes Ishimoto TM, Ali-Osman F. Pharmacogenetics 2002;12:543-553.
GSTP1, Oxaliplatin and survival 107 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who received 5-FU/oxal VAL/VAL (n=10) ILE/VAL (n=45) ILE/ILE (n=45) P < 0.001 After adjustment for performance status the relative risk of dying for patients with ILE/VAL and ILE/ILE genotypes was 2.73 and 3.25 respectively P = 0.072 Stoehlmacher et al. JNCI. 2002;94:936-941; Stoehlmacher et al. Br J Cancer. 2004;94: 944-954.
ERCC1 polymorphism N118N • ERCC1 codes for a protein in the nucleotide excision repair pathway • High ERCC1 level is associated with resistance to oxaliplatin • Polymorphism in codon 118 is silent • 118 TT genotype is associated with reduced translation of the gene, and presumably reduced DNA repair capability (ovarian cancer cell lines). But in colon cancer, patients with ERCC1 118 TT genotype have a higher expression of ERCC1 mRNA.
ERCC1 Polymorphisms & Clinical Outcomes 2 studies with conflicting results: • Stoehlmacher et al. Br J Cancer 2004;94: 944-54 • 107 metastatic colorectal cancer patients receiving oxaliplatin plus 5FU • Relative risk of dying was 2.05, 95%CI [1.00-4.20] forCTand TT genotypes as compared to CC genotype patients • Viguier et al. Clin Cancer Res 2005;11:6212-7 • 61 metastatic colorectal cancer patients receiving FOLFOX regimen • The objective response rate was 21.4% , 42.3% and 61.9% for CC, CT and TT genotypes

Conclusions • Molecular predictive factors of response to chemotherapy for colorectal cancer patients have been identified • From the host or from the tumor • From different pathways • Xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme , Drug target • It is time to study more than one predictive factor at the same time in order to choose the best • The development of “omic” approaches will allow the “a la carte” treatment of cancer patient with the most efficient and the less toxic drugs
