Abstract Background Risk prediction models incorporating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) could lead to individualized prevention of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the added value of incorporating SNPs into models with only traditional risk factors is still not clear. Hence, our primary aim was to summarize literature on risk prediction models including genetic variants for CRC, while our secondary aim was to evaluate the improvement of discriminatory accuracy when adding SNPs to a prediction model with only traditional risk factors. Methods We conducted a systematic review on prediction models incorporating multiple SNPs for CRC risk prediction. We tested whether a significant trend in the increase of Area Under Curve (AUC) according to the number of SNPs could be observed, and estimated the correlation between AUC improvement and number of SNPs. We estimated pooled AUC improvement for SNP-enhanced models compared with non-SNP-enhanced models using random effects meta-analysis, and conducted meta-regression to investigate the association of specific factors with AUC improvement. Results We included 33 studies, 78.79% using genetic risk scores to combine genetic data. We found no significant trend in AUC improvement according to the number of SNPs (p for trend = 0.774), and no correlation between the number of SNPs and AUC improvement (p = 0.695). Pooled AUC improvement was 0.040 (95% CI: 0.035, 0.045), and the number of cases in the study and the AUC of the starting model were inversely associated with AUC improvement obtained when adding SNPs to a prediction model. In addition, models constructed in Asian individuals achieved better AUC improvement with the incorporation of SNPs compared with those developed among individuals of European ancestry. Conclusions Though not conclusive, our results provide insights on factors influencing discriminatory accuracy of SNP-enhanced models. Genetic variants might be useful to inform stratified CRC screening in the future, but further research is needed.

118 Background: Antiangiogenic drug (AAD)-triggered oxygen and nutrient depletion through suppression of angiogenesis switches the glucose-dependent metabolism to lipid-dependent metabolism. Blocking fatty acid oxidation can enhance AAD-mediated anti-tumor effects in colorectal cancer. Previous reports suggested that polymorphisms of the lipid metabolism-related genes are associated with the increased risk of CRC and poor clinical outcome in CRC. Therefore, we hypothesized that genetic variants in the lipid metabolism pathway may predict first-line treatment outcome in mCRC pts. Methods: Genomic DNA from blood samples of pts enrolled in two independent randomized trials, FIRE-3 and MAVERICC, was genotyped through the OncoArray, a customized array manufactured by Illumina including approximately 530K SNP markers. The impact on outcome of 25 selected SNPs in 10 genes involved in the lipid metabolism pathway (CD36, FABP4, LPCAT1, LPCAT2, PPARG, CPT1A, ACSS2, SREBF1, FASN, ACACA) was analyzed. Those treated with FOLFIRI/ bevacizumab (bev) in FIRE-3 (n = 107) and MAVERICC (n = 163) served as discovery and validation cohorts respectively, while FIRE-3 FOLFIRI/ cetuximab (cet) (n = 129) arm was used as the control. Interaction between each SNP and treatment was evaluated in FIRE-3 (FOLFIRI/bev arm vs. FOLFIRI/cet arm). Results: In the discovery (FIRE-3 bev) cohort, pts with FASN rs4485435 any C allele (N = 21) showed significantly shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (8.69 vs 13.48 months) compared to carriers of G/G (N = 62) in both univariate (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.88; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.57-5.29; p = 0.00037) and multivariate (HR = 2.87; 95%CI 1.4-5.9; p = 0.00675) analyses. These data were validated in the MAVERICC bev cohort in multivariate analysis (11.17 vs 14.06 months; HR = 2.07; 95%CI: 1.15-3.74; p = 0.02). Pts carrying any T allele in PPARG rs3856806 (N = 36) showed significantly longer overall survival (OS) (Not reached vs 42 months) than carriers of C/C (n = 93) in the FIRE-3 cet cohort in both univariate (HR = 0.4; 95%CI 0.17-0.92; p = 0.03) and multivariate (HR = 0.37; 95%CI 0.15-0.93; p = 0.02) analyses, but the association was not observed in the bev cohort of MAVERICC and FIRE-3. In the comparison of bev arm vs cet arm in FIRE-3, interactions were shown with FASN rs4485435 (p = 0.017) on PFS and PPARG rs3856806 (p = 0.059) on OS. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates for the first time that FASN polymorphism could predict outcomes of bev-based treatment in mCRC patients; Meanwhile PPARG polymorphism could predict outcomes of cet-based treatment in mCRC patients. These findings support a possible role of the lipid metabolism pathway in contributing to resistance to anti-VEGF/EGFR treatment.
