Abstract
We found that a complex of risk factors is involved in the development of toxicity, including UGT1A1. Parameters that are readily available in clinical practice, notably sex, age and performance status, are stronger predictors than the UGT1A1*28 genotype. Further studies beyond the UGT1A1*28 genotype are needed to fully understand the determinants of toxicity risk, notably in females.
