Abstract excerpt
Factors affecting iron chelation therapy outcomes are complex and should be identified to tailor interventions to the needs of individuals with beta-thalassemia major (TM). The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of PON-1 or UGT1A1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms on therapeutic outcomes via deferasirox (DFX) and the antioxidant status. PON-1 (rs662) or UGT1A1 (rs887829) polymorphisms, iron chelation...
