Exact test of Cochran-Armitage trend test across genotypes. Toxicity grade by National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria version 3.0. A total of 130 patients were assessable for toxicity. Significant differences were found on grades 2-4 delayed diarrhea and grade 4 neutropenia for UGT1A1*28 genotypes. UGT1A1: UDP-glucuronosyltransferase1A1.
