The relationship between the CYP2D6 polymorphisms and tamoxifen efficacy in adjuvant endocrine therapy of breast cancer patients in Chinese Han population

Variants of the CYP2D6 gene may lead to a poor prognosis of tamoxifen (TAM)-treated patients. Our study validated the association between the CYP2D6 genotype and outcomes of patients receiving TAM in adjuvant endocrine therapy. A total of 778 breast cancer patients who received adjuvant TAM (n = 325) or aromatase inhibitors (AIs) (n = 453) at the National Cancer Center were analyzed. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2D6 gene...
