Effect of CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, and CYP3A combined genotypes on tamoxifen metabolism.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tamoxifen is one of the cornerstones of endocrine therapy for breast cancer. Recently, the decreased activity CYP3A4*22 allele and the loss of function CYP3A5*3 allele have been described as potential factors that could help to explain the inter-patient variability in tamoxifen metabolism. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, and CYP3A combined genotypes on tamoxifen metabolism.

Methods

DNA from 667 women enrolled in the CYPTAM study (NTR1509) was genotyped (CYP2D6, CYP3A4*22, and CYP3A5*3). Tamoxifen and metabolite concentrations were measured in serum, and metabolic ratios were calculated. The effect of the CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, and CYP3A combined genotypes in addition to the CYP2D6 genotypes was examined by multiple linear r
