Title:
C677T and A1298C MTHFR gene polymorphisms and response to fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy in Mestizo patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
Published date:

Excerpt:
Patients received first-line therapy with capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil in combination with oxaliplatin or irinotecan...Patients carrying at least one mutant allele of the MTHFR C677T SNP had a better overall response and longer PFS than wild-type homozygous patients.
