ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) is mostly expressed in tumours and displays unusual properties. Its two polymorphic forms were differently associated with anticancer drug sensitivity. We decipher here the role of this polymorphism in anticancer drug efficacy in vitro, in vivo and in the clinical setting.METHODS:
From head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines not expressing CYP1B1, we generated isogenic derivatives expressing the two forms. Proliferation, invasiveness, stem cell characteristics, sensitivity to anticancer agents and transcriptome were analysed. Tumour growth and chemosensitivity were studied in vivo. A prospective clinical trial on 121 patients with advanced head-and-neck cancers was conducted, and a validation-retrospective study was conducted.RESULTS:
Cell lines expressing the variant form displayed high rates of in vitro proliferation and invasiveness, stemness features and resistance to DNA-damaging agents. In vivo, tumours expressing the variant CYP1B1 had higher growth rates and were markedly drug-resistant. In the clinical study, overall survival was significantly associated with the genotypes, wild-type patients presenting a longer median survival (13.5 months) than the variant patients (6.3 months) (p = 0.0166).CONCLUSIONS:
This frequent CYP1B1 polymorphism is crucial for cancer cell proliferation, migration, resistance to chemotherapy and stemness properties, and strongly influences head-and-neck cancer patients' survival.
