Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) plays a vital role in the oxidative metabolism of many xenobiotics. Some recent reports have provided circumstantial evidence in support of an association between a genetic polymorphism (A-->G) in the 5'-flanking region (-290) of CYP3A4 and altered enzyme activity. We sought to determine whether genotyping patients for CYP3A4-G could assist with the dose optimisation of...
