Gene polymorphisms of TACR1 serve as the potential pharmacogenetic predictors of response to the neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist-based antiemetic regimens: a candidate-gene association study in breast cancer patients.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The current candidate gene association study aims to investigate tag SNPs from the TACR1 gene as pharmacogenetic predictors of response to the antiemetic guidelines-recommended, NK-1 receptor antagonist-based, triple antiemetic regimens. METHODS: A set of eighteen tag SNPs of TACR1 were genotyped in breast cancer patients receiving anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (with/without docetaxel) applying...
