- Background Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of mortality and genetic factors can influence tumour aggressiveness. Several germline variants have been associated with PCa-specific mortality (PCSM), but further replication evidence is needed. Methods Twenty-two previously identified PCSM-associated genetic variants were genotyped in seven PCa cohorts (12,082 patients; 1544 PCa deaths). For each cohort, Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for risk of PCSM associated with each variant. Data were then combined using a meta-analysis approach. Results Fifteen SNPs were associated with PCSM in at least one of the seven cohorts. In the meta-analysis, after adjustment for clinicopathological factors, variants in the MGMT (rs2308327; HR 0.90; p-value = 3.5 x 10(-2)) and IL4 (rs2070874; HR 1.22; p-value = 1.1 x 10(-3)) genes were confirmed to be associated with risk of PCSM. In analyses limited to men diagnosed with local or regional stage disease, a variant in AKT1, rs2494750, was also confirmed to be associated with PCSM risk (HR 0.81; p-value = 3.6 x 10(-2)). Conclusions This meta-analysis confirms the association of three genetic variants with risk of PCSM, providing further evidence that genetic background plays a role in PCa-specific survival. While these variants alone are not sufficient as prognostic biomarkers, these results may provide insights into the biological pathways modulating tumour aggressiveness.

- The Fourth European Society of Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Therapy biennial conference was organized in collaboration with the Italian Society of Personalized Medicine (SIMeP) and was held at Benedictine Monastery of San Nicolò l’Arena in Catania, Sicily (Italy) on 4–7 October 2017. The congress addressed the research progress and clinical implementation in pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine. The Fourth European Society of Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Therapy congress brought together leading international scientists and healthcare professionals actively working in the fields of pharmacogenomics and personalized therapy. Altogether, 25 speakers in 15 session comprehensively covered broad spectrum of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics research, clinical applications in different clinical disciplines attended by 270 delegates.
