Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated to identify Polymorphisms (SNPs) which are associated with chemosensitivity of Docetaxel (DTX) therapy for Castration resistant prostate cancer patients. First, we extracted DNA from blood of 55 CRPC patients, and typing was performed for 75 SNPs. 75 SNPs were located in 7 gene loci, which are associated with transportation and metabolism of DTX. Patients was divided two groups according to response of PSA, and association study was carried out. As a result, we clarified 4SNPs which are associated with response of DTX. Moreover, DTX response was accurately predicted with sensitivity of 73%, when we established response predicting model using 4 SNPs.
