a

CYP2D6 phenotypes were assigned according to genotypes with 2 functional alleles (extensive) vs genotypes with at least 1 intermediate or 1 nonfunctional allele (decreased).

b

Progesterone receptor status and radiotherapy information were not available for all patients.

c

Genotype frequencies shown in the following order: homozygous EM/heterozygous/homozygous variant. Allele frequencies in percentages are in parentheses.
