Abstract excerpt
Enzymes of the cytochrome P450 and GSTP1 families play a pivotal role in the metabolism of a wide variety of antitumor drugs and polymorphisms of genes encoding for metabolizing enzymes can affect drug efficacy and toxicity. We studied the associations between functionally significant gene polymorphisms CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A5, and GSTP1 and clinical response to chemotherapy in patients with chronic...
