Abstract

The role of DNA repair gene polymorphisms in cancer development, progression, and response to treatment has received increased attention. We conducted a prospective study to determine whether associations exist between two polymorphisms in XRCC1 and ADPRT and the outcomes of Chinese ovarian cancer patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. A total of 335 new cases of ovarian cancer were consecutively collected between May 2005 and May 2007. Follow-up lasted for 4 years, and the outcome measure was survival time. Individuals carrying XRCC1 194Trp/Trp had a longer survival time than did those with the Arg/Arg genotype. Similarly, those carrying XRCC1 399 Gln/Gln genotypes had 0.44-fold the risk of death than those with the Arg/Arg genotype. The combination of XRCC1 194 Trp allele and 399 Gln allele could decrease the death risk of ovarian cancer. In summary, this study is the first to evaluate the associations between polymorphisms in DNA repair gene polymorphism and the risk of ovarian cancer in Chinese population. Our study found a significant association between XRCC1 Arg399Gln and XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism and the clinical outcome of ovarian cancer. Furthermore, studies with larger sample sizes are still needed to confirm these associations in Chinese population.
