Abstract

Genome variability of host genome and cancer cells play critical role in diversity of response to existing therapies and overall success in treating oncological diseases. In chronic myeloid leukemia targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors demonstrates high efficacy in most of the patients. However about 15 % of patients demonstrate primary resistance to standard therapy. Whole exome sequencing is a good tool for unbiased search of genetic variations important for prognosis of survival and therapy efficacy in many cancers. We apply this approach to CML patients with optimal response and failure of tyrosine kinase therapy. We analyzed exome variations between optimal responders and failures and found 7 variants in cancer-related genes with different genotypes in two groups of patients. Five of them were found in optimal responders: rs11579366, rs1990236, rs176037, rs10653661, rs3803264 and two in failures: rs3099950, rs9471966. These variants were found in genes associated with cancers (ANKRD35, DNAH9, MAGEC1, TOX3) or participating in cancer-related signaling pathways (THSD1, MORN2, PTCRA). We found gene variants which may become early predictors of the therapy outcome and allow development of new early prognostic tests for estimation of therapy efficacy in CML patients. Normal genetic variation may influence therapy efficacy during targeted treatment of cancers.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 January 2016.
All research outputs
#22,758,309
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from BMC Genomic Data
#1,008
of 1,204 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#347,108
of 405,734 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Genomic Data
#38
of 46 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,204 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 405,734 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 46 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
