Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) agents are successful therapies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, inadequate response occurs in 30-40% of patients treated. Knowledge of genetic factors influencing response may facilitate personalised therapy. The purpose of this study was to identify genetic predictors of response to anti-TNF therapy in RA and to validate our findings in independent cohorts.

METHODS: Genome-wide association (GWA) data was available from the Wellcome Trust Case-Control Consortium for 566 anti-TNF-treated RA patients. Multivariate linear regression analysis of change in 28 joint count disease activity score (DAS28) at 6 months was conducted at each single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) using an additive model. Associated markers (P < 10(-3)) were genotyped in two independent replication cohorts (n = 379 and n = 341) and a combined analysis was performed.

RESULTS: Of 171 successfully genotyped markers demonstrating association with treatment response in the GWA data, 7 were corroborated in the combined analysis. The strongest effect was at rs17301249 mapping to the gene EYA4 on chromosome 6: the minor allele conferred improved response to treatment (coef. -0.27, P = 5.67E-05). The minor allele of rs1532269, mapping to the PDZD2 gene, was associated with reduced treatment response (coef. 0.20, P = 7.37E-04). The remaining associated SNPs mapped to intergenic-regions on chromosomes 1, 4, 11 and 12.

CONCLUSIONS: Using a genome-wide strategy, we have identified and validated association of 7 genetic loci with response to anti-TNF treatment in RA. Additional confirmation of these findings in further cohorts will be required.

目的:TNF抑制剂能有效治疗RA,但仍有30%~40%患者疗效欠佳。明确影响疗效的遗传因素可能有助于个体化治疗。本文旨在明确TNF抑制剂治疗RA疗效的遗传预测因素,并在独立队列中验证我们的发现。

 

方法:威康信托基金会病例控制协会的566例使用TNF抑制剂的RA患者采集全基因组关联(GWA)数据。采用相加模型、对各单核苷酸多态性(SNP)进行6个月DAS28变化的多变量线性回归分析。相关标记物(P < 10(-3))2个独立复制队列中进行遗传分型(n = 379n = 341),并进行组合分析。

 

结果:GWA171个成功遗传分型、与疗效相关的标记物中,7个在组合分析中得到验证。定位于6号染色体上EYA4基因的rs17301249作用最强:次要等位基因与疗效较好有关(coef. -0.27, P = 5.67E-05)。定位于PDZD2基因的rs1532269次要等位基因与疗效欠佳相关(coef. 0.20, P = 7.37E-04)。其他相关的SNPs定位在第141112号染色体的基因间隔区。

 

结论:采用全基因组策略,我们鉴定并验证了7个与TNF抑制剂治疗RA疗效相关的遗传位点。这些发现需要进一步证实。
