Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Busulfan is used in preparative regimens before stem cell transplantation. There is significant interpatient variability in busulfan pharmacokinetics (PK) and exposure is related to outcome. Polymorphisms in genes encoding glutathione-S-transferases have been associated with busulfan PK but only explain a limited portion of the observed variability. AIM: The aim of this study is to identify additional...
