Abstract

AIM: A genetic variant has recently reached genome-wide significance for association with TNF-inhibitor response in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Here we undertake a replication study in a UK Caucasian population to test for association with TNF-inhibitor response. MATERIALS & METHODS: The genetic variant, rs3794271, located within the PDE3A-SLCO1C1 locus was analyzed for correlation with treatment response using both the EULAR classification criteria and absolute change in (Delta)DAS28 scores as outcome measures. RESULTS: Genotype data were available from 1750 TNF-inhibitor treated individuals. However, no evidence for association was observed (EULAR: p = 0.91 and DeltaDAS28: p = 0.93). Furthermore, no significant associations were observed upon stratification by the anti-TNF received (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: In the largest replication cohort conducted to date, no evidence for association was observed.
