Abstract

The prognosis of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma has drastically improved due to the development of molecular-targeted drugs and their use in clinical practice. However, these drugs cause some diverse adverse reactions in patients and sometimes affect clinical outcomes of cancer therapy. Therefore, predictive markers are necessary to avoid severe adverse reactions, to establish novel and effective prevention methods, and to improve treatment outcomes. Some genetic factors involved in these adverse reactions have been reported; however, perspectives on each adverse response have not been integrated yet. In this review, genetic polymorphisms relating to molecular-targeted therapy-induced adverse reactions in patients with renal cell carcinoma are summarized in the points of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic mechanisms. We also discuss about the relationship between systemic drug exposure and adverse drug reactions.
