Abstract excerpt
Ototoxicity is a disabling reaction to cisplatin chemotherapy. Much of the inter-individual variability in the development of hearing impairment among cisplatin-receiving patients has not been fully accounted for.

This study sought to investigate the role of variation in five candidate genes in a cohort of South African...
