rs55886062
This is a missense variant in the DPYD gene.
Key Literature Trait Associations
Fluoropyrimidine Toxicity
DPYD*13 (I560S) causes complete loss of DPD enzyme function through a critical amino acid substitution. Although very rare, its clinical severity is equivalent to *2A — carriers are at high risk of fatal toxicity from 5-fluorouracil and capecitabine. CPIC and EMA include *13 in the recommended pre-treatment DPYD testing panel, and fluoropyrimidines are contraindicated in homozygous carriers.

▶DPYDGenotyping to Predict Adverse Events Following Treatment With Fluorouracil-Based Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Stage III Colon CancerAssociationN=1,545Valérie Boige et al.(2016)· JAMA Oncology
This pharmacogenetic secondary analysis of 1,545 stage III colon cancer patients from the PETACC-8 trial identified two DPYD variants significantly associated with grade 3+ fluorouracil-related adverse events: D949V (rs67376798, OR 6.3, p<0.001) and V732I/DPYD*6 (rs1801160, OR 1.7, p<0.001). The V732I association was validated in an independent cohort of 339 metastatic colorectal cancer patients treated with FOLFOX regimens.
▶An SNP in CYP39A1 is associated with severe neutropenia induced by docetaxelAssociationN=1,529Toshitaka Uchiyama et al.(2012)· Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology
This pooled analysis of 6 randomized phase 3 trials (1529 patients with advanced NSCLC) demonstrates that chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN) is a significant prognostic factor associated with longer overall survival, particularly severe CIN (HR 0.71, 95% CI: 0.53-0.95). The study does not analyze genetic polymorphisms but discusses the potential role of pharmacogenetic factors in predicting CIN risk, including SNPs in drug-metabolizing enzymes, transporters, and DNA repair genes.
