Abstract excerpt
Vincristine is metabolized to one primary metabolite, M1, by cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 and by CYP3A enzymes in human liver microsomes. For both systems, CYP3A5 is predicted to mediate approximately 80% of the CYP3A metabolism for individuals with high CYP3A5 expression (at least one CYP3A5...
