Interplay between IL6 and CRIM1 in thiopurine intolerance due to hematological toxicity in leukemic patients with wild-type NUDT15 and TPMT.

ABSTRACT: NUDT15 and TPMT variants are strong genetic determinants of thiopurine-induced hematological toxicity. Despite the impact of homozygous CRIM1 on thiopurine toxicity, several patients with wild-type NUDT15, TPMT, and CRIM1 experience thiopurine toxicity, therapeutic failure, and relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Novel pharmacogenetic interactions associated with thiopurine intolerance from hematological toxicities were investigated using whole-exome sequencing for last-cycle 6-mercaptopurine dose intensity percentages (DIP) tolerated by pediatric ALL patients (N = 320). IL6 rs13306435 carriers (N = 19) exhibited significantly lower DIP (48.0 ± 27.3%) than non-carriers (N = 209, 69.9 ± 29.0%; p = 0.0016 and 0.0028 by t test and multiple linear regression, respectively). Among 19 carriers, 7 with both heterozygous IL6 rs13306435 and CRIM1 rs3821169 showed significantly decreased DIP (24.7 ± 8.9%) than those with IL6 (N = 12, 61.6 ± 25.1%) or CRIM1 (N = 94, 68.1 ± 28.4%) variants. IL6 and CRIM1 variants showed marked inter-ethnic variability. Four-gene-interplay models revealed the best odds ratio (8.06) and potential population impact [relative risk (5.73), population attributable fraction (58%), number needed to treat (3.67), and number needed to genotype (12.50)]. Interplay between IL6 rs13306435 and CRIM1 rs3821169 was suggested as an independent and/or additive genetic determinant of thiopurine intolerance beyond NUDT15 and TPMT in pediatric ALL.

Project description:BackgroundNUDT15 and TPMT variants are strong genetic determinants of thiopurine-induced hematological toxicity that results in therapeutic failure in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, many patients with both wild-type (WT) NUDT15 and TPMT still suffer from thiopurine toxicity and therapeutic failure.MethodsWhole-exome sequencing was done for discovery (N = 244) and replication (N = 76) cohorts. Age- and sex-adjusted multiple regression analyses of both WT patients were performed to identify (p < 0.01, N = 188 for discovery) and validate (p < 0.05, N = 52 for replication) candidate variants for the tolerated last-cycle 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) dose intensity percentage (DIP). Both independent and additive effects of the candidate variants on well-known NUDT15 and TPMT were evaluated by multigene prediction models.ResultsAmong the 12 candidate variants from the discovery phase, the rs3821169 variant of the gene encoding Cysteine-Rich Transmembrane BMP Regulator 1 (CRIM1) was successfully replicated (p < 0.05). It showed high interethnic variability with an impressively high allele frequency in East Asians (T = 0.255) compared to Africans (0.001), Americans (0.02), Europeans (0.009), and South Asians (0.05). Homozygote carriers of the CRIM1 rs3821169 variant (N = 12, 5%) showed significantly lower last-cycle 6-MP DIPs in the discovery, replication, and combined cohorts (p = 0.025, 0.013, and 0.001, respectively). The traditional two-gene model (NUDT15 and TPMT) for predicting 6-MP DIP < 25% was outperformed by the three-gene model that included CRIM1, in terms of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (0.734 vs. 0.665), prediction accuracy (0.759 vs. 0.756), sensitivity (0.636 vs. 0.523), positive predictive value (0.315 vs. 0.288), and negative predictive value (0.931 vs. 0.913).ConclusionsThe CRIM1 rs3821169 variant is suggested to be an independent and/or additive genetic determinant of thiopurine toxicity beyond NUDT15 and TPMT in pediatric ALL.
