Abstract
This study investigated the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in doxorubicin (DOX) transport and metabolism on clinical outcomes and toxicity in Egyptian patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Ninety-two patients received at least six DOX treatment cycles. SNP genotyping was performed using real-time PCR with high-resolution melting analysis. Laboratory tests were conducted at baseline, during, and after treatment.
The AA genotype of ABCC2 (rs8187710) showed the strongest association with elevated DOX plasma levels and a significantly increased risk of acute cardiotoxicity (OR 26.9; 95% CI: 1.47-492; p = 0.026). The GA genotype was linked to a lower complete response rate and increased risks of leukopoenia (OR 2.66; 95% CI: 1.07-6.61; p = 0.034) and lymphocytopenia (OR 10; 95% CI: 3.57-27.9; p < 0.0001), with intermediate peak DOX levels. For CBR3 (rs8133052), the GA genotype was significantly associated with a higher risk of anaemia (OR 3.5; 95% CI: 1.05-11.7; p = 0.042), acute cardiotoxicity (OR 4.4; 95% CI: 1.86-11.5; p = 0.002), cardiac-related symptoms, and higher peak plasma DOX levels, along with reduced complete response.
Polymorphisms in ABCC2 and CBR3 genes may contribute to individual variability in DOX-related toxicity and treatment response.
