These common ABCB1 SNPs have been associated with toxicity during carboplatin and paclitaxel‐based chemotherapy, including increased risk of anemia in carriers of the c.1236C>T SNP, a more pronounced neutrophil decrease in patients carrying the c.3435C>T and c.2677G>T>A SNPs and increased risk of peripheral neuropathy associated with the c.3435C>T SNP.18, 25, 26. The gene discussed is ABCB1; the disease is anemia.
