Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Determination of DPYD and UGT1A1 polymorphisms prior to 5-fluorouracil and irinotecan therapy is crucial for avoiding severe adverse drug effects. Hence, there is a pressing need for accurate and reliable genotyping methods for the most common DPYD and UGT1A1 polymorphisms. In this study, we introduce a novel polymerase chain reaction (PCR) melting curve analysis method for discriminating DPYD...
