Cytochrome P450 (CYP) are phase I metabolizing enzymes involved in detoxification of chemotherapeutic agents. Among the CYP gene family, including CYP1A1, CYP1B1, CYP2C, CYP2D, CYP2E and CYP17, their significance in cancer susceptibility is well established. However, there remains limited understanding regarding the polymorphisms of CYP2C19*2 and CYP17 and their potential correlation with chemotherapy-induced toxicity reactions in breast cancer (BC) patients. In this study we intended to identify the association of CYP2C19*2 and CYP17 gene polymorphisms on drug response as well as toxicity reactions in BC patients undergoing adriamycin/paclitaxel based chemotherapy within Indian population.
