Genetic variations associated with gemcitabine treatment outcome in pancreatic cancer
5 Oct 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cancer is a rapidly fatal disease with gemcitabine remaining the first-line therapy. We performed a genotype-phenotype association study to identify biomarkers for predicting gemcitabine treatment outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We selected the top 200 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified from our previous genome-wide association study to associate with overall survival using...
