Abstract (EN):
Aim:To evaluate the influence ofYB-1 rs10493112 variant as a genetic marker for response to second-generation androgen receptor axis-target agents.Methods:A hospital-based cohort study of 78 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer was conducted. Genotyping was performed by TaqMan(R)allelic discrimination technology.Main results:In abiraterone-treated and high-risk patients,YB-1rs10493112 AA genotype carriers showed lower progression-free survival than C allele genotype patients (4 vs 17 months; p = 0.009). For carriers of AA genotype, multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed a fivefold increased risk of progression (p = 0.035).Conclusion:The study findings suggest that, for metastatic and castration-resistant prostate cancer patients, this polymorphism might be a putative marker for the clinical outcome.
