P1.03-015 - The Relationship between the UGT1A1*27 and UGT1A1*7 Genetic Polymorphisms and Irinotecan-Related Toxicities in Patients with Lung Cancer (ID 7500)

- Abstract
Background:
Genetic polymorphisms in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), UGT1A7, and UGT1A9 genes are associated with interindividual differences in irinotecan toxicities. Purpose: To evaluate the effects of gene polymorphisms, including UGT1A1*7, *27, and *29, on the safety of irinotecan therapy.
Method:
The eligibility criteria were as follows: lung cancer patients who were scheduled to undergo irinotecan therapy, aged ≥20 years, and had a performance status of 0-2. After informed consent had been obtained, patients were enrolled, and their blood was collected and used to examine the frequency of the UGT1A1*6, *7, *27, *28, and *29 polymorphisms and the drug concentrations of irinotecan, SN-38, and SN-38G after irinotecan therapy.
Result:
Thirty-one patients were enrolled. The patients’ characteristics were as follows: male/female = 25/6, median age (range) = 71 (55-84), stage IIB/IIIA/IIIB/IV = 2/6/11/12, and Ad/Sq/Sm/Oth = 14/10/3/4. The -/-, *6/-, *7/-, *27/-, *28/-, and *29/- UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms were observed in 10 (32%), 10 (32%), 2 (6%), 2 (6%), 7 (23%), and 0 (0%) cases, respectively. There were no homozygous or complex heterozygous polymorphisms. The UGT1A1*27 polymorphism occurred separately from the UGT1A1*28 polymorphism. The lowest leukocyte counts of the patients with the UGT1A1*27 and UGT1A1*6 gene polymorphisms were lower than those seen in the wild-type patients. SN-38 tended to remain in the blood for a prolonged period after the infusion of irinotecan in patients with the UGT1A1*27 or UGT1A1*28 polymorphism. No severe myelotoxicity was seen in the patients with UGT1A1*7.
Conclusion:
UGT1A1*27 and UGT1A1*7 are both rare gene polymorphisms. UGT1A1*27 can occur separately from UGT1A1*28 in some circumstances and is related to leukopenia during irinotecan treatment. UGT1A1*7 is less relevant to irinotecan-induced toxicities, and UGT1A1*29 seems to have little clinical impact.
