In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

The International Tamoxifen Pharmacogenomics Consortium (ITPC) was established to address the controversy over CYP2D6 status and clinical outcomes in tamoxifen therapy. We performed a meta-analysis on data from 4,973 tamoxifen treated patients (twelve globally-distributed sites). Using strict eligibility requirements (postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer receiving 20 mg/day tamoxifen for 5 years, Criterion 1), CYP2D6 poor metabolizer status was associated with poorer Invasive Disease-Free Survival (IDFS: HR=1.25; 95% CI 1.06, 1.47; P=0.009). However, CYP2D6 was not statistically significant when tamoxifen duration, menopausal status, and annual follow-up were not specified (Criterion 2, n=2443; 49%; P=0.25) nor when no exclusions were applied (Criterion 3, n=4935; 99%; P=0.38). Although CYP2D6 is a strong predictor of IDFS using strict inclusion criteria, because the results are not robust to inclusion criteria (these were not defined a priori), prospective studies are necessary to fully establish the value of CYP2D6 genotyping in tamoxifen therapy.Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics (2013); accepted article preview online 23 September 2013 doi:10.1038/clpt.2013.186.
