Genetic effect of ERCC1 codon 118 polymorphism and confounding factors.
To the Editor: Viguier et al. (1) reported that the ERCC1 codon 118 polymorphism has a predictive value in colorectal cancer patients treated with platinum combination chemotherapy. However, there are contradictory reports on the effects of this polymorphism on the survival of cancer patients. Although Viguier et al. suggested that cancer patients carrying a variant genotype survived for a long...

متن کاملERCC1 codon 118 polymorphism is a useful prognostic marker in patients with pancreatic cancer treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.
Excision repair cross-complementation 1 (ERCC1) has been reported to play a major role in the response to platinum-based therapies. It has recently been proposed that a synonymous polymorphism at codon 118 converting a common codon usage (AAC) to an infrequent one (AAT) may impair ERCC1 translation and to affect the response to cisplatin chemotherapy. We analyzed the association between this po...
متن کاملConfounding factors and genetic polymorphism in the evaluation of individual steroid profiling
In the fight against doping, steroid profiling is a powerful tool to detect drug misuse with endogenous anabolic androgenic steroids. To establish sensitive and reliable models, the factors influencing profiling should be recognised. We performed an extensive literature review of the multiple factors that could influence the quantitative levels and ratios of endogenous steroids in urine matrix....
متن کاملERCC1 codon 118 polymorphism is a predictive factor for the tumor response to oxaliplatin/5-fluorouracil combination chemotherapy in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
PURPOSE The aim of our study was to assess whether the polymorphism of the nucleotide excision repair enzyme, excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 1 (ERCC1), had an effect on the tumor response in patients treated with standard chemotherapy regimens for a metastatic colorectal cancer. We have studied the synonymous polymorphism that causes a single...
