Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 promoter polymorphism predicts the risk of gastrointestinal toxicity and fatigue induced by irinotecan-based chemotherapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In the current Phase II study, the authors evaluated the association between genomic polymorphic variants in uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase (UGT1A1), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), and thymidylate synthase (TS) genes, and the incidence of the adverse effects of

Pharmacogenetic tailoring of irinotecan-based first-line chemotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer: results of a pilot study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Tolerability to irinotecan may be explained by pharmacogenomic polymorphisms. The purpose of this pharmacogenetic trial was to study the relevance of thymidylate synthase (TS) genotyping and of the isoform 1A1 of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) in order to tailor a

UGT1A1 gene variations and irinotecan treatment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

SN-38 is the active metabolite of irinotecan and it is metabolised through conjugation by uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase (UGT1A1). The major toxicity of irinotecan therapy is diarrhoea, which has been related to the enzymatic activity of UGT1A1. We examined the influence of the UGT1A1

The role of dolutegravir in the management of HIV infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dolutegravir is the most recent integrase strand transfer inhibitor approved for HIV-1 infection in both treatment-naïve and experienced patients. As a tricyclic carbamoyl pyridone analog, dolutegravir is rapidly absorbed and distributes through the cerebrospinal fluid. It is hepatically metabolized

Atazanavir for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Atazanavir is the first once-daily protease inhibitor for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection and should be used only in combination therapy, as part of a highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen. In addition to being the most potent protease inhibitor in

Bioequivalence and pharmacokinetic comparison of two mycophenolate mofetil formulations in healthy Chinese male volunteers: an open-label, randomized-sequence, single-dose, two-way crossover study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an ester prodrug of mycophenolic acid (MPA), so clinical studies measure the circulating plasma MPA concentration instead of MMF. MPA is extensively glucuronidated by several uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferases into an inactive 7-O-glucuronide and a

Effect of omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics and toxicities of irinotecan in cancer patients: a prospective cross-over drug-drug interaction study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Omeprazole is one of the most prescribed medications worldwide and within the class of proton pump inhibitors, it is most frequently associated with drug interactions. In vitro studies have shown that omeprazole can alter the function of metabolic enzymes and transporters that are

Long-term efficacy and safety of raltegravir in the management of HIV infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Raltegravir is an integrase strand-transfer inhibitor approved for the treatment of HIV infection. It was the first medication in a novel class of antiretroviral agents to be approved for use in the United States in 2007. Raltegravir exhibits potent activity against wild-type HIV-1, but resistance

Environmental and genetic factors associated with morphine response in the postoperative period.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the respective influence of genetic and nongenetic factors on morphine dose requirements and adverse effects after colorectal surgery. METHODS Seventy-four patients who planned to undergo colorectal surgery were included in this pilot study. The

Vorinostat: A novel therapy for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, safety, adverse effects, dosage and administration, and role in therapy of vorinostat in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) are reviewed. CONCLUSIONS Vorinostat is a novel histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor approved

Prophylaxis of irinotecan-induced diarrhea with neomycin and potential role for UGT1A1*28 genotype screening: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Delayed-type diarrhea is a common side effect of irinotecan and is associated with a bacterial-mediated formation of the active irinotecan metabolite SN-38 from its glucuronide conjugate in the intestine. Based on a pilot study, we hypothesized that concomitant administration of the
