🧬 How Knowing Key Genes Can Transform Breast Cancer Treatment 🧬 Imagine being able to know which medications will work best before starting breast cancer therapy. 🌸 Key CYP450 enzymes like CYP2D6, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4, along with genes such as MTHFR, DPYD, and BRCA, play significant roles in how patients respond to cancer treatments. However, without testing, we often miss the opportunity to personalize therapy to each patient’s unique genetic profile. 🔑 What if breast cancer care could truly be as unique as your genetics? Pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing can make this possible. For example, CYP2D6 is critical in metabolizing Tamoxifen, a common treatment for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. In clinical practice, testing for CYP2D6 variants helps oncologists determine the most effective dosage for patients, ensuring they receive the maximum benefit from their treatment while minimizing side effects.
