Table 3.

Median Endoxifen Concentrations for the Three CYP2D6 Genotype Groups and Change Over Time (EM patients no change in dose; IM and PM patients increased tamoxifen dose)

Genotype Category No. Evaluable at Baseline Median Endoxifen Baseline* (ng/mL) No. Completing Protocol-Driven Therapy Median Endoxifen Baseline (ng/mL) Median Endoxifen 4 Months Later (ng/mL) Intrapatient Change From Baseline (ng/mL)
P
Median Interquartile Range
EM 32 34.9 29 34.3 29.2 −1.5 −28 to 11.2 .25
IM 74 19.8 51 18.5 21.8 +7.6 −0.6 to 23.9 < .001
PM 11 4.6 9 4.2 12.9 +6.1 2.6 to 12.5 .020

Abbreviations: EM, extensive metabolizer; IM, intermediate metabolizer; PM, poor metabolizer.

*

Medians of the three groups are significantly different from each other with EM v IM: P = .0054; EM v PM: P < .001; IM v PM: P < .001.

Represents aggregate data within genotype groups, not intrapatient data.

Relates to the median intrapatient change from baseline.
