چکیده

Purpose:We evaluated X-ray repair complementing defective repair in Chinese hamster cells 1 (XRCC1) protein in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients in association with outcome. Experimental Design: XRCC1 protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of pretreatment tissue samples in 138 consecutive HNSCC patients treated with surgery (n 1⁄4 31), radiation (15), surgery and radiation (23), surgery and adjuvant chemoradiation (17), primary chemoradiation (51), and palliative measures (1). Results: Patients with high XRCC1 expression by IHC (n1⁄4 77) compared with patients with low XRCC1 expression (n 1⁄4 60) had poorer median overall survival (OS; 41.0 months vs. OS not reached, P 1⁄4 0.009) and poorer progression-free survival (28.0 months vs. 73.0 months, P 1⁄4 0.031). This association was primarily due to patients who received chemoradiation (median OS of highand low-XRCC1 expression patients, 35.5 months and not reached respectively, HR 3.48; 95% CI: 1.44–8.38; P 1⁄4 0.006). In patients treated with nonchemoradiation modalities, there was no survival difference by XRCC1 expression. In multivariable analysis, high XRCC1 expression and p16-positive status were independently associated with survival in the overall study population (HR 1⁄4 2.62; 95% CI: 1.52–4.52; P < 0.001 and HR 1⁄4 0.21; 95% CI: 0.06–0.71; P 1⁄4 0.012, respectively) and among chemoradiation patients (HR 1⁄4 6.02; 95% CI: 2.36–15.37; P < 0.001 and HR 1⁄4 0.26; 95% CI: 0.08–0.92, respectively; P 1⁄4 0.037). Conclusions: In HNSCC, high XRCC1 protein expression is associated with poorer survival, particularly in patients receiving chemoradiation. Future validation of these findings may enable identification of HNSCC expressing patients who benefit from chemoradiation treatment. Clin Cancer Res; 17(20);

Overexpression of High-Mobility Motor Box 1 in the Blood and Tissues of Patients with Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Introduction: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common cancers in the world. Extra- and intra-cellular high-mobility motor box 1 (HMGB1) proteins are invovled in the pathogenesis and prognosis of cancer. Regarding this, the present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the expression of HMGB1 protein and mRNA levels in the blood, tumor tissue, and mar...

Association between XRCC1 (rs1799782) Gene Polymorphism and Oral squamous cell carcinoma

Background and purpose: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common tumor of the head and neck. XRCC1 is a DNA repair gene and there are controversies about the association between XRCC1 gene polymorphism (RS1799782) in pathogenesis and susceptibility to OSCC. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between XRCC1 (rs1799782) gene polymorphism and its dominant all...
