ABSTRACT: Background/aim
There exists considerably large interpatient variability in pharmacokinetic exposure of high dose melphalan in multiple myeloma patients with hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential impacts of CYP3A4*1B (rs2940574) and CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) variations on pharmacokinetic properties of melphalan and clinical outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) patients.Patients and methods
Genotypes of CYP3A4*1B (rs2940574) and CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) were determined by validated gene-specific real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assays using DNA samples from 108 MM patients; plasma concentrations of melphalan at different time points were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).Results
