Sorafenib pathways published in Pharmacogenetics and Genomics
The PharmGKB review of the Sorafenib pathways has been published in the journal Pharmacogenetics and Genomics. Sorafenib (NEXAVAR®, BAY43-9006) is an oral anti-cancer drug approved for the treatment of metastatic or advanced liver, kidney, and thyroid cancers. Although many new targeted therapies have been tested over the past decade, sorafenib remains the standard of care for these diseases due to its modest efficacy and acceptable tolerability. In this review, we discuss the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of sorafenib and highlight genetic variations that may contribute to the diverse pharmacological responses to sorafenib.
