SNPs in the TGF-β signaling pathway are associated with increased risk of brain metastasis in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer.

<h4>Purpose</h4>Brain metastasis (BM) from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is relatively common, but identifying which patients will develop brain metastasis has been problematic. We hypothesized that genotype variants in the TGF-β signaling pathway could be a predictive biomarker of...

We hypothesized that genotype variants in the TGF-β signaling pathway could be a predictive biomarker of brain metastasis.<h4>Patients and methods</h4>We genotyped 33 SNPs from 13 genes in the TGF-β signaling pathway and evaluated their associations with brain metastasis risk by using DNA from blood samples from 161 patients with NSCLC. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to assess brain metastasis risk; Cox hazard analyses were used to evaluate the effects of various patient and disease characteristics on the risk of brain metastasis.<h4>Results</h4>The median age of the 116 men and 45 women in the study was 58 years; 62 (39%) had stage IIIB or IV disease.
