Predictive value of genetic variants XRCC1 rs1799782, APEX1 rs1760944, and MUTYH rs3219489 for adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy outcomes in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variations in DNA base excision repair (BER) genes may affect tumor sensitivity to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Thus, we investigated the effects of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in key BER pathway genes on clinical outcomes in male patients who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Seven SNPs from XRCC1, OGG1, APEX1, and MUTYH were genotyped using the Sequenom iPLEX MassARRAY system in...
