Abstract excerpt
Aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy is highly efficacious in the treatment of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer; however, in a subset of patients AI use is discontinued due to drug-induced musculoskeletal adverse events (MS-AE). Several studies have investigated the role of germline single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on patients' risk of MS-AEs; however, no associations have yet to be validated for...
