The relationship between UGT1A1 gene polymorphism and irinotecan effect on extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer

Abstract

For irinotecan-based regimens in E-SCLC, the UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A1*6 locus mutations can be regarded as predictors for severe adverse events. We also found that neither clinical response nor prognosis was significantly associated with the UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms.
