Effect of Genetic Polymorphism on Capecitabine-Induced Toxicity in Egyptian Cancer Patients

January 8, 2025 updated by: Raghad Essam Nassar, Ain Shams University
The goal of this observational study is to study the effect of a single nucleotide polymorphism in the CES1 gene (rs2244613) on capecitabine-induced toxicity in Egyptian cancer patients. This study will help in understanding the interindividual variability in the CES1 gene and the effect of a single nucleotide polymorphism in this gene (rs2244613) on capecitabine-induced toxicity in participants already taking capecitabine-based chemotherapy as part of their regular medical care.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Occurrence of gastrointestinal toxicity
Time Frame: Six months
Occurrence and severity of capecitabine-induced gastrointestinal toxicity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE V5.0) in relation to the variation in patients' genotype of rs2244613 in the CES1 gene.
Six months
Occurrence of hand-foot syndrome
Time Frame: Six months
Occurrence and severity of capecitabine-induced Hand-foot syndrome will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE V5.0) in relation to the variation in patients' genotype of rs2244613 in the CES1 gene.
Six months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Occurrence of hematological toxicity
Time Frame: Six months
Occurrence and severity of capecitabine-induced hematological toxicity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE V5.0) in relation to the variation in patients' genotype of rs2244613 in the CES1 gene.
Six months
Occurrence of hepatic toxicity
Time Frame: Six months
Occurrence and severity of capecitabine-induced hyperbilirubinemia will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE V5.0) in relation to the variation in patients' genotype of rs2244613 in the CES1 gene.
Six months
