These results suggest that ABCB1 3435C>T polymorphism is associated with antiemetic treatment efficacy in patients with cancer treated with 5-HT(3) antagonists, particularly in granisetron-treated patients, during the short-term phase of chemotherapy.
We investigated the incidence of C3435T polymorphisms at exon 26 in the MDR-1 gene in 92 women with breast cancer and potential association of altered genotypes with smoking and high body mass index in cancer development among patients.
This study investigates the association between ABCB1 gene polymorphism at exon 26 (3435C>T) and risk to UADT cancers in Tamilians, a population of south India.
We therefore investigated the influence of polymorphisms G1199A, C1236T, G2677T/A and C3435T on cancer susceptibility, in vitro cytotoxicity and overall survival in 100 de novo AML patients with normal karyotype.
In summary, this meta-analysis suggests that the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism is associated with cancer susceptibility, increasing the risk of breast and renal cancer.
We have previously found association between the ABCB1 C-rs3789243-T polymorphism and CRC risk and interactions between the ABCB1 C-rs3789243-T and C3435T polymorphisms and meat intake in relation to CRC risk (Andersen, BMC Cancer, 2009, 9, 407).
