Abstract excerpt
Doxorubicin (DOX) and daunorubicin (DAUN) are anthracycline anticancer agents; however, considerable interpatient variability exists in their pharmacokinetics. This interpatient variability is attributed in part to altered metabolism by nonsynonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (ns-SNPs) in genes encoding the carbonyl reductases. This study examines the effect of seven naturally occurring ns-SNPs in the CBR3...
