Abstract excerpt
DPYD and UGT1A1 variants significantly affect fluoropyrimidines and irinotecan safety. While genotype-driven dosing reduces severe toxicity, the impact of individual variants remains incompletely investigated. This retrospective cohort study includes 178 cancer patients with a matched actionable DPYD and/or UGT1A1 genotypes, defined by the presence of guideline-recommended variants (DPYD: rs3918290, DPYD*2A,...
