Pharmacogenetics as a Future Tool to Risk-Stratify Breast Cancer Patients According to Chemotoxicity Potential from the Doxorubicin Hydrochloride and Cyclophosphamide (AC) Regimen

Abstract excerpt

Background: Studying single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in xenobiotic-transporting and metabolizing enzyme genes before administering the doxorubicin hydrochloride and cyclophosphamide (AC) regimen may help optimize breast cancer (BC) treatment for individual patients. Objective: Genotyping specific SNPs on genes encoding for the transport and metabolism of the AC regimen and study their association with its...
