Abstract excerpt
Pre-treatment genotyping of four well-characterized toxicity risk-variants in the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase gene (DPYD) has been widely implemented in Europe to prevent serious adverse effects in cancer patients treated with fluoropyrimidines. Current genotyping practices are largely limited to selected commonly studied variants and are unable to determine phasing when more than one variant allele is...
