ABSTRACT
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a global health concern, necessitating adjuvant chemotherapy post-curative surgery to mitigate recurrence and enhance survival, particularly in intermediate-stage patients. However, existing therapeutic disparities highlight the need for biomarker-guided adjuvant chemotherapy to achieve better CRC inhibition. This study explores the molecular mechanisms underlying the inhibition of CRC through a genome-wide association study (GWAS) focused on 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-based adjuvant therapy in intermediate-stage CRC patients, a domain previously unexplored. We retrospectively included 226 intermediate-stage CRC patients undergoing surgical resection followed by 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy. The exploration cohort comprised 31 patients, and the validation cohort included 195 individuals. Genotyping was carried out using either Axiom Genome-Wide TWB 2.0 Array Plate-based or polymerase chain reaction-based methods on genomic DNA derived from collected tissue samples. Statistical analyses involved descriptive statistics, Kaplan-Meier analyses, and Cox proportional hazard analyses. From the GWAS, potential genetic predictors, GALNT14-rs62139523 and DNMBP-rs10786578 genotypes, of 5-FU-based adjuvant therapy following surgery in intermediate-stage CRC patients were identified. Validation in a larger cohort of 195 patients emphasized the predictive significance of GALNT14-rs62139523 genotypes, especially the "A/G" genotype, for improved overall and progression-free survival. This predictive association remained robust across various subgroups, with exceptions for specific demographic and clinical parameters such as age < 58 years old, CEA ≤ 2.5 ng/mL, tumor diameter > 44.0 mm, and tumor-free margin ≥ 50 mm. This study identifies that the GALNT14-rs62139523 "A/G" genotype modulates therapeutic outcomes, establishing it as a promising biomarker for predicting favorable responses to 5-FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy in intermediate-stage CRC patients, although further investigations are needed to detail these mechanisms.
