Pharmacokinetics and toxicity of docetaxel: Role of CYP3A, MDR1, and GST polymorphisms
5 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Patients initiating docetaxel chemotherapy were genotyped for CYP3A4, CYP3A5, MDR1, GSTM1, GSTT1, GSTM3, and GSTP1 to identify variability factors of docetaxel pharmacokinetics and toxicity. METHODS: Genotyping was performed by direct sequencing (CYP3A4), real-time polymerase chain reaction (CYP3A5), and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (MDR1 and GST). The clearance...
