Clinical Relevance of Novel Polymorphisms in the Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase (<i>DPYD</i>) Gene in Patients with Severe Fluoropyrimidine Toxicity: A Spanish Case-Control Study

Among cancer patients treated with fluoropyrimidines, 10–40% develop severe toxicity. Polymorphism of the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (<i>DPYD</i>) gene may reduce DPD function, the main enzyme responsible for the metabolism of fluoropyrimidines. This leads to drug accumulation and to an increas...
