    Abstract: Background: In this study, we were aiming to evaluate the role of DNA repair enzyme, O6-methylguanine–DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) in regulating the therapeutic efficacy of platinum drugs and radiation, and also investigate its clinical significance. Materials and Methods: Tetracycline-regulated Tet-On system and RNA interference method were used to investigate the correlations between MGMT expression and platinums/radiation-induced DNA damage and cytotoxicity in cultured cells. Furthermore, 83 NPC patients received cisplatin (CDDP)-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) were analyzed the relationship of MGMT expression and survival. Results: CHO-derived Tet-On-inducible cells (S12+) showed MGMT overexpression and statistically significant more resistance to CDDP, carboplatin and oxaliplatin than parental CHO cells. Knockdown of MGMT expression with small interfering RNA in HONE-1 cells conferred increased sensitivity to those platinum drugs as compared with scrambled control. Further study showed that the amount of CDDP-DNA adduct and double strand DNA breaks after CDDP exposure were significantly lower in MGMTproficient cells than that of MGMT-deficient cells in both Tet-On and RNAi system. Host reactivation assay revealed that protection of CDDP-induced DNA damage and cell death by MGMT is through enhanced global DNA repair capacity. Otherwise, Resistance to X-ray irradiation was observed in MGMT-proficient cells, and vice versa in MGMT-deficient cells. The result from clinical specimens revealed that the NPC patients, who received CDDP-based CCRT, with lower level of MGMT expression had a better disease-free survival (DSS) (P = 0.015) and local recurrent-free survival (LRFS) (p < 0.05) than patients with high expression of MGMT. Multivariate analyses indicated that high expression of MGMT is an independent predictor for poor survival, with a risk ratio of 2.14 for DSS (95% CI=1.14–4.02), and 3.62 for LRFS (95% CI=1.33–9.88). Conclusion: Our results suggested that MGMT plays an important role in determining the therapeutic efficacy of platinum drugs and radiation, and may have a relevance to clinical use of CCRT.
