Simplified phenotyping of CYP2D6 for tamoxifen treatment using the N-desmethyl-tamoxifen/ endoxifen ratio

Introduction: CYP2D6 protein activity can be inferred from the ratio of N-desmethyl-tamoxifen (NDMT) to endoxifen (E). CYP2D6 polymorphisms are common and can affect CYP2D6 protein activity and E level. Some retrospective studies indicate that E < 16 nM may relate to worse outcome. Materials and...
