Abstract excerpt
Inter-individual variations in drug responses among patients are known to cause serious problems in medicine. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is powerful for examining single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their relationships with drug response variations. However, no significant SNP has been identified using GWAS due to multiple testing problems. Therefore, we propose a combination method consisting of...
