Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: An influence of polymorphic cytochromes P450 (CYP) 2D6 genetic variants on antiemetic efficacy of ondansetron has been suggested. However, the role of CYP3A in ondansetron metabolism and efficacy has been unclear. In this study, we evaluated the hypothesis that genotype-dependent CYP2D6 and CYP3A activity selectively influences plasma concentrations of ondansetron enantiomers. Additionally, the...
