Complex molecular profile of DNA repair genes in epithelial ovarian carcinoma patients with different sensitivity to platinum-based therapy

Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is known for high mortality due to diagnosis at advanced stages and frequent therapy resistance. Previous findings suggested that the DNA repair system is involved in the therapeutic response of cancer patients and DNA repair genes are promising targets for novel t...

description Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is known for high mortality due to diagnosis at advanced stages and frequent therapy resistance. Previous findings suggested that the DNA repair system is involved in the therapeutic response of cancer patients and DNA repair genes are promising targets for novel therapies. This study aimed to address complex inter-relations among gene expression levels, methylation profiles, and somatic mutations in DNA repair genes and EOC prognosis and therapy resistance status. We found significant associations of DUT expression with the presence of peritoneal metastases in EOC patients. The high-grade serous EOC subtype was enriched with TP53 mutations compared to other subtypes. Furthermore, somatic mutations in XPC and PRKDC were significantly associated with worse overall survival of EOC patients, and higher FAAP20 expression in platinum-resistant than platinum-sensitive patients was observed. We found higher methylation of RAD50 in platinum-resistant than in platinum-sensitive patients. Somatic mutations in BRCA1 and RAD9A were significantly associated with higher RBBP8 methylation in platinum-sensitive compared to platinum-resistant EOC patients. In conclusion, we discovered associations of several candidate genes from the DNA repair pathway with the prognosis and platinum resistance status of EOC patients, which deserve further validation as potential predictive biomarkers.
