Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: CYP2C8 is known to metabolize various drugs including an anticancer drug paclitaxel. Although large interindividual differences in CYP2C8 enzymatic activity and several nonsynonymous variations were reported, neither haplotype structures nor their associations with pharmacokinetic parameters of paclitaxel were reported. METHODS: Haplotype structures of the CYP2C8 gene were inferred by an...
