Single nucleotide polymorphisms of casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene-b predict outcomes of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer after first-line platinum based doublet chemotherapy.
Journal of Thoracic Disease 2018 March
Background: Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene-b (CBLB) influences the threshold of T cell activation and controlling peripheral T cell tolerance. In the present study, we hypothesize that potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CBLB are associated with clinical outcomes in patients advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with the first-line chemotherapy.
Methods: We genotyped three SNPs (rs2305035, rs3772534 and rs9657904) at CBLB in 116 advanced NSCLC patients with progression free survival (PFS) data and 133 advanced NSCLC patients with overall survival (OS) data, and we assessed their associations, 95% confidence interval (CI), with clinical outcomes by using Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. In silico functional analysis was also performed for the SNPs under investigation.
Results: We found that associations between the three SNPs and PFS/OS were not significant in the overall NSCLC patients. The rs2305035 AA genotype was associated with a worse PFS in female patients and those of non-smokers or light smokers (95% CI, 1.14-11.81, P=0.030; 95% CI, 1.42-10.24, P=0.008; and 95% CI, 1.39-9.93, P=0.009; respectively), compared with the GG+AA genotypes. We also found that the rs9657904 CC genotype was significantly associated with a worse OS than TT + TC genotypes in male advanced NSCLC patients. Further in silico functional analysis revealed that the rs965704 T allele was significantly associated with lower mRNA expression levels of the CBLB gene.
Conclusions: Our findings identified two CBLB SNPs (rs2305035 and rs9657904) that were significantly associated with PFS and OS in several subgroups of Chinese advanced NSCLC patients after the first-line chemotherapy.
