RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Epirubicin is metabolized by uridine glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 (UGT2B7). Patients homozygous for the minor allele (CC) in the UGT2B7 -161 promoter polymorphism have lower clearance and significantly higher rates of leukopenia compared to wild-type homozygote (TT) or heterozygote (CT) patients. This study was designed to determine if TT and CT genotype patients could tolerate a higher epirubicin dose compared to CC genotype patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We studied women with histologically confirmed non-metastatic, invasive breast cancer who were scheduled to receive at least three cycles of FE100C in the (neo)adjuvant setting. Patients received standard-dose FE100C during the first 21-day cycle. Based on genotype, the epirubicin dose was escalated in the second and third cycles to 115 and 130 mg/m2 or to 120 and 140 mg/m2 for CT and TT genotype patients, respectively. The main outcome measurements were myelosuppression and dose-limiting toxicity. These were analyzed for relationships with the three genotypes. RESULTS: Forty-five patients were enrolled (10 CC, 21 CT, and 14 TT genotypes) and received 100 mg/m2 of epirubicin in the first cycle. Twelve and 10 TT patients were dose escalated at the second and third cycles, respectively; 16 CT patients were dose escalated at the second and third cycles. Leukopenia, but not febrile neutropenia, was genotype and dose dependent and increased in patients with CT and TT genotypes as their dose was increased. However, the third-cycle leukopenia rates were comparable to patients with the CC genotype receiving standard-dose epirubicin. CONCLUSION: Pharmacogenetically guided epirubicin dosing is well tolerated and allowed dose escalation without increased toxicity.
