Abstract

Published data on the association between Xeroderma Pigmentosum complementation group D (XPD) Lys751Gln polymorphism and breast cancer risk are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, a meta-analysis was performed. Crude ORs with 95% CIs were used to assess the strength of association between them. A total of 30 studies including 14,283 cases and 14,426 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Overall, significantly elevated breast cancer risk was associated with XPD 751Gln allele when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (Lys/Gln vs. Lys/Lys: OR = 1.13, 95% CI = 1.02–1.25; Gln/Gln vs. Lys/Lys: OR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.06–1.38; dominant model: OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.05–1.29; and recessive model: OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.02–1.27). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, borderline significantly increased risks were found for Caucasians (Lys/Gln vs. Lys/Lys: OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.98–1.22; dominant model: OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.99–1.22) and significantly increased risks were found for Africans in dominant model (OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 1.04–1.15). When stratified by study design, statistically significantly elevated risk was found in population-based studies (Lys/Gln vs. Lys/Lys: OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 1.01–1.20; Gln/Gln vs. Lys/Lys: OR = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.01–1.31; dominant model: OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.03–1.23). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the XPD 751Gln allele is a low-penetrant risk factor for developing breast cancer.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
