Abstract | PURPOSE: PATIENTS AND METHODS: We identified 173 cisplatin-treated testicular cancer survivors (TCSs) who had participated in a long-term survey that included audiometric testing and lymphocyte sampling. The hearing decibel thresholds at 4,000 Hz were categorized into leveled scales by normative decibel percentiles. Known functional polymorphisms (positive or negative) in GSTT1 and GSTM1 and codon 105 A/G ( Ile/Val) in GSTP1 were analyzed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction, followed by restriction enzyme cutting, and separated by gel electrophoresis. RESULTS: The risk of having an inferior audiometric result was more than four times higher in TCSs with 105Ile/105Ile-GSTP1 or 105Val/105Ile-GSTP1 compared with 105Val/105Val-GSTP1 (odds ratio [OR] = 4.21; 95% CI, 1.99 to 8.88; P < .001 when modeled by ordinal logistic regression [OLR]). GSTM1 positivity was detrimental for hearing ability. Two combined genotypes were associated with hearing ability. The presence of pattern 1 (GSTT1 positive, GSTM1 positive, and 105Ile/105Ile-GSTP1) was associated with hearing impairment (OR = 2.76; 95% CI, 1.35 to 5.64; P = .005, OLR). TCSs with pattern 2 (GSTT1 positive, GSTM1 positive, and 105Val/105Val-GSTP1) had better hearing ability than TCSs without this pattern (OR = 5.35; 95% CI, 2.25 to 12.76; P < .001, OLR). CONCLUSION:
