Study of Relationship Between UGT1A1 Gene Polymorphism and Toxicity and Efficacy of Irinotecan in Small Cell Lung Cancer
Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out the correlation between uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1(UGT1A1) gene polymorphisms and the side effect and efficacy of irinotecan in patients with small cell lung cancer.
Description
In multiple studies of metastatic colorectal cancer,uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1(UGT1A1) gene polymorphisms and its correlation with irinotecan-associated side effects have been confirmed.Data from several studies indicated an improved clinical outcome of patients who had received an irinotecan-based regimen.In order to find out the correlation between UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms and the side effect and efficacy of irinotecan in patients with small cell lung cancer,we designed this study.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Carcinoma, Bronchogenic
Malignant neoplasm arising from the epithelium of the BRONCHI. It represents a large group of epithelial lung malignancies which can be divided into two clinical groups: SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER and NON-SMALL-CELL LUNG CARCINOMA.
Small Cell Lung Carcinoma
A form of highly malignant lung cancer that is composed of small ovoid cells (SMALL CELL CARCINOMA).
Carcinoma, Non-small-cell Lung
A heterogeneous aggregate of at least three distinct histological types of lung cancer, including SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA; ADENOCARCINOMA; and LARGE CELL CARCINOMA. They are dealt with collectively because of their shared treatment strategy.
Carcinoma, Small Cell
An anaplastic, highly malignant, and usually bronchogenic carcinoma composed of small ovoid cells with scanty neoplasm. It is characterized by a dominant, deeply basophilic nucleus, and absent or indistinct nucleoli. (From Stedman, 25th ed; Holland et al., Cancer Medicine, 3d ed, p1286-7)
Carcinoma, Lewis Lung
A carcinoma discovered by Dr. Margaret R. Lewis of the Wistar Institute in 1951. This tumor originated spontaneously as a carcinoma of the lung of a C57BL mouse. The tumor does not appear to be grossly hemorrhagic and the majority of the tumor tissue is a semifirm homogeneous mass. (From Cancer Chemother Rep 2 1972 Nov;(3)1:325) It is also called 3LL and LLC and is used as a transplantable malignancy.
