Resumen:
The cornerstone of first-line treatment in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) is platinum- and etoposide-based chemotherapy. Platinum compounds could immunomodulate the tumor microenvironment in addition to their cytotoxic effect. Genetic variation in immune checkpoint (IC) pathways may predict chemotherapy efficacy. Polymorphisms in the IC genes were determined, and their association with survival was analyzed in 78 patients with ES-SCLC treated with chemotherapy. PD-L1 protein expression in tumor tissue was determined. Three variants in CD274 were associated with better median progression-free survival (mPFS): rs2297136 (hazard ratio [HR] 0.52, 95% CI 0.29-0.93; p = 0.03), rs2282055 (HR 0.23, 95% CI 0.09-0.64; p = 0.005), and rs822336 (HR 0.41, 95% CI 0.23-0.73; p = 0.002). CTLA4 rs231775 was also associated with mPFS (HR 0.30, 95% CI 0.14-0.63; p = 0.002). The variants CD274 rs2297136 and CD274 rs822336 were associated with platinum sensitivity (odds ratio [OR] 0.13, 95% CI 0.02-0.70; p = 0.02, and OR 0.08, 95% CI 0.01-0.46; p = 0.005, respectively). CD274 rs2297136 was also associated with better overall survival (p = 0.02), but not after adjustment for covariates. No association was found between CD274 germline variants and PD-L1 tumor expression. Our results suggest that CD274 and CTLA4 variants may be predictive biomarkers for platinum plus etoposide treatment in ES-SCLC.
