RESUMEN
The purpose of the present research work was to study the CYP2D6 gene polymorphism survival outcome after breast cancer patient received the toremifene and tamoxifen treatment. Seventy-eight patients who received radical mastectomy and toremifene and tamoxifen treatment after operation were divided into three groups: CYP2D6*1/*1 group [13 cases], CYP2D6*1/*10 group [28cases] and CYP2D6*10/*10 group [35 cases], according to the gene polymorphism of blood serum CYP2D6. The results of treatment of three groups were compared. After operation the content of blood serum CA125, CA153, VEGF, IGF-1 were all lower than before. The content of CYP2D6*10/*10 group was higher than those of CYP2D6*1/*1 group and CYP2D6*1/*10 group. The content of CYP2D6*1/*1 group had no difference with that of CYP2D6*1/*10 group. All patients were followed up for a median duration of 30.5 months. Progression-free survival [PFS] of CYP2D6*10/*10 was shortened. The recurrence rate increased and the survival rate reduced. There were no obvious differences between CYP2D6*1/*1group and CYP2D6*1/*10 group. In summary, CYP2D6 gene polymorphism relates with the effect of toremifene and tamoxifen treatment in patient with ER positive breast cancer and null allele homozygote CYP2D6*10/*10 can lead to a poor prognosis
