Association of genetic variation of the six gene prognostic model for castration‐resistant prostate cancer with survival
Background We previously identified a blood RNA transcript‐based model consisting of six immune or inflammatory response genes (ABL2, SEMA4D, ITGAL, C1QA, TIMP1, and CDKN1A) that was prognostic for survival in cohorts of men with castration‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We investigated whether i...

Summary: | Background
We previously identified a blood RNA transcript‐based model consisting of six immune or inflammatory response genes (ABL2, SEMA4D, ITGAL, C1QA, TIMP1, and CDKN1A) that was prognostic for survival in cohorts of men with castration‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We investigated whether inherited variation in these six genes was associated with overall survival (OS) in men with CRPC.
Methods
The test cohort comprised 600 patients diagnosed with CRPC between 1996 and 2011 at Dana‐Farber Cancer Institute. Genotyping of 66 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) spanning the six genes was performed on blood derived DNAs. For the top four SNPs (P |
