Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore the possible relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in candidate genes encoding DNA damage recognition/repair/response and steroid metabolism proteins with respect to clinical radiation toxicity in a retrospective cohort of patients previously treated with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3-DCRT) for prostate cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: One hundred twenty-four...
