Implementation of pharmacogenetic testing in oncology: DPYD-guided dosing to prevent fluoropyrimidine toxicity in British Columbia
Background: Fluoropyrimidine toxicity is often due to variations in the gene (DPYD) encoding dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). DPYD genotyping can be used to adjust doses to reduce the likelihood of fluoropyrimidine toxicity while maintaining therapeutically effective drug levels.Methods: A mul...
