“…Therefore, clinical trials conducted in different regions of the world may enroll patients with heterogeneous biological backgrounds that make the trial results not comparable. In addition, the incidences of genetic polymorphisms of genes involved in drug metabolism, including those for fluoropyrimidines, taxanes, and platinums, also differ between Asian and non-Asian populations [18][19][20]. These differences may result in different drug disposition, tolerance to the same chemotherapeutic agents, and preference of Asian and non-Asian investigators in choosing the optimal combinations.…”

“…Despite these advantages, S-1 pharmacokinetics is subject to interindividual variability, which is explained by the pharmacogenetics of CYP2A6 ( Goh et al , 2008 ). The variant genotypes of CYP2A6 display decreased baseline enzyme activity, leading to reduced 5-FU formation.…”

“…It should be noted that grade 3/4 diarrhea and hand-foot syndrome observed in our study are less frequent. One possible explanation for this observation is interethnic variability (Goh et al 2008).…”
