Cancer therapy offers an ideal scenario for the integration of pharmacogenetics into clinical practice - often there are multiple treatment options but a finite window of time to select the correct one. This book offers an overview of the role of pharmacogenetics in cancer treatment. |
| Synopsis: |
The field of pharmacogenetics has expanded rapidly over the past few years since the release of the working draft of the human genome project and the continuing efforts of the international HapMap project. Cancer therapy offers an ideal scenario for the integration of pharmacogenetics into clinical practice - often there are multiple treatment options but a finite window of time to select the correct one. The ideal of testing patients for genetic markers for chemotherapy efficacy and/or toxicity is becoming a reality with FDA approved clinical tests and genotype-guided clinical trials. This volume is designed to offer an overview of the role of pharmacogenetics in cancer treatment, from the history of the field through to its integration into clinical practice. |
