Meta-analysis revisiting the influence of <i>UGT1A1*28</i> and <i>UGT1A1*6</i> on irinotecan safety in colorectal cancer patients.

ABSTRACT: Aim: To evaluate the association between irinotecan safety and the UGT1A1 gene polymorphism in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients.Materials & methods: The studies were systematically searched and identified from three databases (PubMed, Embase and The Cochrane Library) until 28 February 2023. The relationships were evaluated using pooled odds ratio (OR).Results: A total of 30 studies out of 600 were included, comprising 4471 patients. UGT1A1*28 was associated with a statistically significant increase in the OR for diarrhea (OR: 1.59, 95% CI = 1.24-2.06 in the additive model; OR = 3.24, 95% CI = 2.01-5.21 in the recessive model; and OR = 1.95, 95% CI = 1.42-2.69 in the dominant model) and neutropenia (OR = 1.70, 95% CI = 1.40-2.06 in the additive model; OR =
