To identify additional genetic markers contributing to variability in irinotecan pharmacokinetics and neutropenia, a regression analysis was performed in 78 irinotecan-treated patients to analyze comprehensively three hepatic efflux transporter genes (ABCB1, ABCC1 and ABCG2). rs6498588 (ABCC1) and rs12720066 (ABCB1) were associated with increased SN-38 exposure, and rs17501331 (ABCC1) and rs12720066 were associated with lower absolute neutrophil count nadir. rs6498588 and a variant in high linkage disequilibrium are located in transcriptionally active regions or are predicted to alter transcription factor binding sites.
