Summary: | Paclitaxel-induced neuropathy is an adverse event that often leads to therapeutic disruption and patient discomfort. We attempted to replicate a previously reported association between increased neuropathy risk and CYP2C8*3 genotype.
Demographic, treatment, and toxicity data were collected for paclitaxel-treated breast cancer patients who were genotyped for the CYP2C8*3 K399R (rs10509681) variant. A log-rank test was used in the primary analysis of European-American patients. An additional independent replication was then attempted in a cohort of African-American patients, followed by modeling of the entire patient cohort with relevant covariates.
In the primary analysis of 209 European patients, there was an increased risk of paclitaxel-induced neuropathy related to CYP2C8*3 status [HR (per allele) = 1.93 (95% CI: 1.05–3.55), overall log-rank P = 0.006]. The association was replicated in direction and magnitude of effect in 107 African-American patients (P = 0.043). In the Cox model using the entire mixed-race cohort (n = 411), each CYP2C8*3 allele approximately doubled the patient's risk of grade 2+ neuropathy (P = 0.004), and non-Europeans were at higher neuropathy risk than Europeans of similar genotype (P = 0.030).
The increased risk of paclitaxel-induced neuropathy in patients who carry the CYP2C8*3 variant was replicated in two racially distinct patient cohorts. |
