PG - 3345-51 AB - Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are aggressive tumors in which the current therapy based on multiagent chemotherapy is not successful. Since cytochrome P450 3A subfamily (CYP3A) enzymes are involved in the inactivation of chemotherapy drugs, we hypothesized that CYP3A and P-glycoprotein (MDR1) expression in these lymphomas could result in a poor clinical response. We measured tumoral CYP3A and MDR1 mRNA content in 44 T-cell lymphomas, finding a large variation in CYP3A expression. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis showed genomic gains affecting CYP3A and MDR1 genes in T-cell lines and primary tumors, suggesting that this could be the mechanism underlying the tumoral expression variation. To test whether the tumoral expression of CYP3A and/or MDR1 could influence PTCL treatment outcome, their expression levels were compared with the clinical response and survival of the patients, finding that a high tumoral expression of CYP3A4 was significantly associated with a lower complete remission rate. This was further investigated with cell lines stably expressing CYP3A4 that exhibited an increased resistance to doxorubicin and etoposide. In conclusion, a high CYP3A4 tumoral expression could be useful to predict poor response to the standard PTCL chemotherapy; in these cases alternative chemotherapy combinations or doses should be explored.
