Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have suggested that the incidence of vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) is potentially linked with cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A5, a polymorphic enzyme that metabolizes vincristine in vitro, and with concurrent use of azole antifungals such as ketoconazole. The assumed mechanism for these interactions is through modulation of CYP3A-mediated metabolism, leading to decreased vincristine...
