Abstract excerpt
Aim: The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of vemurafenib are characterized by a wide interpatient variability. Since multiple polymorphic enzymes and drug transporters are involved in vemurafenib pharmacokinetics, we studied associations of polymorphisms on vemurafenib-associated toxicities. Patients & methods: Prospectively collected samples of 97 melanoma patients treated with vemurafenib alone (n = 62) or...
