Gene promoter methylation in biological fluids is emerging as a biomarker that could be important for early detection of lung cancer and monitoring prevention and intervention. The prevalence of methylation of multiple gene promoters was evaluated in sputum and plasma from women at different risk for lung cancer. Lung cancer survivors participating in the selenium chemoprevention trial showed the highest prevalence for methylation in sputum and plasma compared to cancer-free smokers and never smokers. Sputum was superior for classifying methylation status of genes in tumor biopsies with a positive predictive value of 86% for the combined effect of four genes.Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States and will soon reach epidemic levels worldwide. Mortality from this disease could be reduced through early detection and the identification of high-risk individuals who could benefit from chemopreventive strategies that can reverse or impede the progression of premalignant disease. Therefore, it is essential to develop biomarkers that can predict the efficacy of promising chemopreventive agents. In 1996, Dr. Larry Clark reported a study on skin cancer chemoprevention using L-selenomethionine. 1 Although the primary endpoint of skin cancer prevention was negative, the rate of expected lung cancer in the group taking selenium decreased by approximately 50%. This finding led to the implementation of ECOG 5597,“A Phase III Chemoprevention Trial of Selenium Supplementation in Persons with Resected Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.” This trial is testing the hypothesis that 200 µg of L-selenomethionine given as selenized yeast can decrease the rate of second primary tumors in patients who have undergone curative surgery for stages Ia (T1N0) or Ib (T2N0) non-small cell lung cancer.
