A genetic variant study of bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy in Chinese multiple myeloma patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bortezomib results in peripheral neuropathy (PN) in approximately 50% of patients, during multiple myeloma (MM) treatment, a complication known as Bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN). The drug response varies among individuals. Genetic factor may play an important role in BIPN.

Methods

A next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel containing 1659 targets from 233 genes was used to identify risk variants for developing BIPN in 204 MM patients who received bortezomib therapy. mRNA expression of MTHFR and ALDH1A1 in 62 peripheral blood samples was detected by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Serum homocysteine (Hcy) levels were detected in 40 samples by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA).

Results

Compared with the non-B
