Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: It has been reported that expression of OCT3 enhanced the sensitivity to melphalan in cells, indicative of potential roles of OCT3 in melphalan transport. Herein we investigated the association of select single nucleotide polymorphisms in SLC22A3 (gene encoding OCT3) with clinical outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) patients with hematopoietic autologous stem cell transplants followed by high-dose...
