  • Genome-wide association study identifies ephrin type A receptors implicated in paclitaxel induced peripheral sensory neuropathy. - Journal of medical genetics (2014) · Leandro-García LJ, Inglada-Pérez L, Pita G, Hjerpe E, Leskelä S, Jara C, Mielgo X, González-Neira A, Robledo M, Avall-Lundqvist E, Gréen H, Rodríguez-Antona C · PubMed 23776197

    Peripheral neuropathy is the dose limiting toxicity of paclitaxel, a chemotherapeutic drug widely used to treat solid tumours. This toxicity exhibits great inter-individual variability of unknown origin. The present study aimed to identify genetic variants associated with paclitaxel induced neuropathy via a whole genome approach. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed in 144 white European patients uniformly treated with paclitaxel/carboplatin and for whom detailed data on neuropathy was available. Per allele single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associations were assessed by Cox regression, modelling the cumulative dose of paclitaxel up to the development of grade 2 sensory neuropathy. The strongest evidence of association was observed for the ephrin type A receptor 4 (EPHA4)
