Abstrakt: This review aimed to summarize the pharmacogenetic studies of the most commonly used drugs in the chemotherapy of gastrointestinal (GI) tumors: oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and fluoropyrimidines. So far, it has not been possible to develop an effective genotype-based approach for oxaliplatin. More and more evidence is emerging in favor of the fact that the choice of a dose of fluorouracil based on pharmacogenetic testing according to DPYD*2A, can be not only effective but also cost-effective. Additional, well-planned trials of the UGT1A1 genotype-based approach to irinotecan therapy are predicted to reduce adverse drug events in people with the UGT1A1*28/*28 genotypes and improve treatment efficacy in the rest of the patients, which might be cost-effective.
