Abstract excerpt
Tamoxifen is part of the standard of care of endocrine therapy for adjuvant treatment of breast cancer. However, survival outcomes with tamoxifen are highly variable. The concentration of endoxifen, the 30-100 times more potent metabolite of tamoxifen and bioactivated by the CYP2D6 enzyme, has been described as the most relevant metabolite of tamoxifen metabolism. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was...
