Abstrakt: Background: A fatty acid desaturase (FADS) insertion-deletion (Indel) polymorphism (rs66698963) influences the expression of FADS1, which controls the synthesis of n-6 highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA) arachidonic acid (AA). The anti-inflammatory activity of the n-3 HUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) may be explained by competition with AA for proinflammatory lipid mediator synthesis. A precision medicine approach based on stratification by FADS Indel genotype could identify individuals, who benefit from greatest disease risk reduction by n-3 HUFAs.
Objectives: We tested the hypothesis that the FADS insertion (I) allele predicts colorectal polyp risk reduction in a secondary analysis of the randomized, placebo-controlled, 2×2 factorial seAFOod polyp prevention trial of EPA 2000 mg daily and aspirin 300 mg daily for 12 mo (ISRCTN05926847).
Methods: Participant Indel genotype was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) blind to trial outcomes. Colorectal polyp outcomes were included in negative binomial (polyp number) and logistic (polyp detection rate [PDR; percentage with one or more polyps]) regression models comparing each active intervention with its placebo. Presence of ≥1 Indel I allele and an interaction term (I allele × active intervention) were covariates.
Results: In 528 participants with colonoscopy and FADS Indel data, EPA use irrespective of Indel genotype, was not associated with reduced colorectal polyp number (incidence rate ratio [IRR]: 0.92; 95% confidence interval: 0.74, 1.16), mirroring original seAFOod trial analysis. However, the presence of ≥1 I allele identified EPA users with a significant reduction in colorectal polyp number (IRR: 0.50 [0.28, 0.90]), unlike aspirin, for which there was no interaction. Similar findings were obtained for the PDR.
Conclusions: The FADS Indel I allele identified individuals, who displayed colorectal polyp prevention by EPA with a similar effect size to aspirin. Assessment of rs66698963 as a biomarker of therapeutic response to n-3 HUFAs in other populations and healthcare settings is warranted. The seAFOod polyp prevention trial and STOP-ADENOMA study were registered at International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number registry as ISRCTN05926847.
