Abstract excerpt

Pharmacogenetics is an increasingly useful field where the genetic studies are becoming an important tool for predicting drug toxicity and/or efficacy. Thymidylate synthase (TS) and dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) gene polymorphisms could be highly informative tools in the clinical handling of colorectal cancer patients, who are following fluoropyrimidine based chemotherapy. Fifty-eight patients, with...
