Xeroderma Pigmentosum: Pathophysiology Historical Studies:
• XP cells demonstrate UV radiation hypersensitivity (Gartler 1964) • Deficient excision repair observed in cultured XP skin fibroblasts (Cleaver
1968) • Stable DNA photoproducts identified following UV radiation (Setlow 1962),
not removed by XP cells ( Setlow 1969, Cleaver and Trosko 1970) • Defective excision repair in XP cells demonstrated in vitro (Reed 1969) and in
vivo (Epstein 1970) • Cell fusion studies demonstrated heterogeneity of XP molecular defects ( De
Weerd-Kastelein 1972) Fusion of fibroblasts from different XP patients form heterokaryons that demonstrate
corrected DNA repair mechanisms. Characterization of different complementation groups, A-G (Kramer 1975, Arase 1979,

evident in first 2 years of life • Type II: Severe phenotype, growth failure at birth, death first decade • Type III: Mild symptoms, late onset; photosensitivity with normal

Xeroderma Pigmentosum Disease Course
Xeroderma Pigmentosum: Long Term Survival Leading Cause of Death: Skin cancer and metastasis Lifetime Cancer Risk:
• 33% XP patients do not develop cancer • Squamous Cell and Basal Cell Carcinoma:
o Median age at first cancer = 9 years (range 1-32 years) o XP patients have 58-year reduction in age at first non-melanocytic skin cancer o 10,000 fold lifetime risk compared to general population
• Melanoma: o Median age at first cancer = 22 years (range 2-47 years) o XP patients have a 33-year reduction in age at first non-melanocytic skin cancer o 2,000 fold lifetime risk compared to general population o PTEN mutations more common (53%) compared to general population (16%)
• Other Cancer: • Increased risk of lung cancer in XP smokers • Brain tumors
Neurodegeneration: • More common in XPA, XPB, XPD, XPF, XPG (Rare in XPC, XPE) • Associated with decreased median age of death compared to XP patients without neurodegeneration (29 vs 37
years) • Second leading cause of death in XP patients
Xeroderma Pigmentosum: Disease Treatment and Prevention
• Prevention: oAggressive photoprotection recommended
• Surgical resection of skin cancers o Early resection important for long-term survival
• Systemic Therapy: oRetinoids oAntioxidant therapy oVitamin D supplementation
• Gene therapy
Xeroderma Pigmentosum: Conclusions
• Patients with XP have mutations in genes that are necessary for nucleotide excision repair of damaged DNA: o Exploration of the disease pathogenesis has elucidated DNA repair processes oXP patients exhibit:
- Photosensitivity with a tendency for skin burning - Markedly increased risk of developing cutaneous malignancy among other cancers - Susceptibility for neurodegenerative problems
• Long term survival is improved by avoidance of UV radiation and photoprotection
