Supplementary Table 2. Comparison of phenotyping assays in performance for prediction of severe fluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity
Clinical validity parameters for the prediction of severe fluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity are shown for the 2-13C-uracil breath test and uracil loading assay. DPYD variant allele carriers were excluded, since DPYD variant allele carriers received an initial dose reduction based on their genotype, and therefore bias could develop in the onset of severe fluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity.
