| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between cytokine polymorphisms and side effect from chemotherapy for patients with cancer. The experimental group comprised 64 patients who received chemotherapy for esophageal cancer between 1997 and 2004; a total of 106 patients between 2005 and 2013 were investigated as the validation group. Univariate analysis of the experimental group revealed that the TT genotype of TNF-α rs1799964 was significantly higher in patients with grade 1-4 OM compared with the TC/CC genotypes. Similarly, univariate analysis of the validation group revealed that the percentage of the TT genotype was significantly higher in patients with grade 1-4 OM compared with the TC/CC genotypes. This difference in risk was replicated in the validation cohort. Thus, the TT genotype of TNF-α rs1799964 may be a predictor of chemotherapy-induced OM in patients with esophageal cancer.
