PURPOSE: Several clinical and genetic factors including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene are associated with increased risk of temozolomide (TMZ) induced myelotoxicity. We have previously reported substantially higher frequency of variant T allele of L84F (SNP in MGMT gene) in Indian patients with clinically relevant myelotoxicity compared to normal...
