Abstract

According to recent evidence, the prognostic value of Vitamin D (VitD) status for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients might be confined to patients with the GG genotype of Cdx2, a functional polymorphism of the VitD receptor gene. We aimed to validate these findings in a cohort of CRC patients. Post-operative serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration was determined by mass spectrometry and Cdx2 genotyping was performed from blood or buccal swabs using standard methods. Joint associations of VitD status and Cdx2 with overall survival (OS), CRC-specific survival (CSS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were assessed using Cox regression. For patients with GG genotype, adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for the associations of sufficient compared with deficient VitD were 0.63 (0.50-0.78), 0.68 (0.50-0.90), 0.66 (0.51-0.86), and 0.62 (0.50-0.77) for OS, CSS, RFS, and DFS, respectively. These associations were weaker and not statistically significant for the AA/AG genotype. Interaction between VitD status and genotype did not reach statistical significance. VitD deficiency is an independent predictor of poorer survival, particularly for the GG Cdx2 carriers, suggesting a potential role of VitD supplementation according to VitD status and genotype, which should be evaluated in randomised trials.
