Abstract
Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate among all the highly prevalent neoplasia globally. The major concern with its frontline treatment-cisplatin, is the rapid progression of chemoresistance and multi-organ-based toxicities including hearing loss and tinnitus, nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity and myelosuppression including anemia and neutropenia. In this review, studies concluding the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in disparate genes with aforementioned toxicity points are summarized to observe the pharmacogenomic pattern. Especially, SNPs in ATP7B, ERCC-1, ERCC-2, MATE-1, OCT-2, ABCB-1, ABCC-1, ABCG-2, ABCC-2, SLC22A, ERCC-5, BRCA-1, GSTM-3, GSTM-4 and GSTM-5 genes appear to be associated with the therapeutic response and/or adverse effects of cisplatin. We recommend utilizing this information to minimize the risk of treatment failure due to chemoresistance and adverse effects on other organs.
