Pharmacogenomics:
Capecitabine is a prodrug that is enzymatically converted to its active form, fluorouracil, an antimetabolite that slows tumour growth. DPYD gene encodes dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), an enzyme that catalyses the rate-limiting step in fluorouracil metabolism. The prevalence of DPD deficiency in Caucasians is approx 3-5%. Individuals who are carriers of non-functional DPYD variants (e.g. DPYD*2A) may not be able to metabolise capecitabine at normal rates and are at risk of potentially life-threatening capecitabine toxicity such as bone marrow suppression and neurotoxicity.
The DPD genotype is assigned using a gene activity score, calculated as the sum of the activity scores of the 2 DPYD variants with the lowest variant activity score. Generally, carriers of 2 no function variant are considered DPYD poor metabolisers (Activity score 0); carriers of 1 no function or decreased function variant are considered DPYD intermediate metabolisers (Activity score 1 or 1.5); those with only normal function variants are classified as DPYD normal metabolisers (Activity score 2).
Recommendation of Capecitabine by DPD phenotype based on 2017 Update Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) Guideline:
Phenotype
Genotype
Recommendation
DPYD normal metabolisers (Activity score 2)
Carriers of 2 normal functional alleles (e.g. c.[5];[5], c.[85T>C];[5], c.[1627A>G];[5]) exhibit normal DPD activity and “normal” risk of fluoropyrimidine toxicity.
No dosage adjustment needed.
DPYD intermediate metabolisers (Activity score 1 or 1.5)
Carriers of 1 normal function allele and 1 no function allele or 1 decreased function allele; or carriers of 2 decreased function alleles (e.g. c.[190511G>A];[5], c.[1679T>G];[5], c.[2846A>T];[5]; c.[1129–5923C>G];[5]d; c.[1129–5923C>G];[1129 5923C>G]d; c.[2846A>T];[2846A>T]) have reduced DPD activity and increased risk for severe or fatal toxicities.
Reduce initial dose according to activity score followed by titration of dose based on toxicity or therapeutic drug monitoring. Activity score 1: Reduce dose by 50%. Activity score 1.5: Reduce dose by 25-50%.
DPYD poor metabolisers (Activity score 0 or 0.5)
Carriers of 2 no function alleles or carriers of 1 no function and 1 decreased function allele e.g. c.[190511G>A];[190511G>A], c.[1679T>G];[1679T>G], c.[190511G>A];[2846A>T] c.[190511G>A]; [1129-5923C>G] have complete DPD deficiency and increased risk of severe or fatal toxicities.
Activity score 0.5: Avoid use of 5-fluorouracil or 5-fluorouracil pro-drug regimens and consider a suitable alternative. If alternative is not possible, administer at strongly reduced dose with early therapeutic drug monitoring. Activity score 0: Avoid use of 5-fluorouracil or 5-fluorouracil pro-drug regimens.
Recommendation for Capecitabine based on November 2018 Update Royal Dutch Pharmacists Association - Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) Guideline:
Phenotype
Description
Recommendation
DPYD Activity Score 0
Genetic variation increases the risk of severe, life-threatening toxicity. A reduced conversion of capecitabine to inactive metabolites means that the standard dose is a more than 100-fold overdose.
Use an alternative drug; if not possible, determine the residual DPD activity in mononuclear cells from peripheral blood and adjust the initial dose accordingly, or adjust the initial dose based on efficacy and toxicity.
DPYD Activity Score 0.5
Genetic variation increases the risk of severe, life-threatening toxicity. A decreased conversion of capecitabine to inactive metabolites means that the normal dose is an overdose.
Start with 25% of the standard dose or use an alternative. Initial dose adjustment should be based on toxicity and effectiveness. Tegafur is not an alternative, as it is also metabolised by DPD.
DPYD Activity Score 1
Genetic variation increases the risk of severe, life-threatening toxicity. A reduced conversion of capecitabine to inactive metabolites means that the normal dose is an overdose.
Start with 50% of the standard dose or use an alternative. Initial dose adjustment should be based on toxicity and effectiveness. Tegafur is not an alternative, as it is also metabolised by DPD.
DPYD Activity Score 1.5
Genetic variation increases the risk of severe, life-threatening toxicity. A reduced conversion of capecitabine to inactive metabolites means that the normal dose is an overdose.
Start with 75% of the standard dose or use an alternative. Initial dose adjustment should be based on toxicity and effectiveness. Tegafur is not an alternative, as it is also metabolised by DPD.

Food reduces the rate and extent of absorption of capecitabine.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Capecitabine is a prodrug of fluorouracil, a pyrimidine antimetabolite, which is metabolised into 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine-5'monophosphate (FdUMP) and 5-fluorouridine triphosphate (FUTP). FdUMP covalently binds to thymidylate synthase, inhibiting the formation of thymidilate, thus interfering with DNA synthesis. Additionally, FUTP interferes with RNA processing and protein synthesis. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly and extensively absorbed. Food reduces rate and extent of absorption. Time to peak plasma concentration: Approx 1.5 hours. Distribution: Plasma protein binding: <60% (approx 35% to albumin). Metabolism: Enzymatically metabolised to fluorouracil which is further metabolised to active metabolites 5-fluoroxyuridine monophosphate (F-UMP) and F-dUMP. Excretion: Mainly via urine (96%, 57% as α-fluoro-ß-alanine; <3% as unchanged drug), as faeces (<3%). Elimination half-life: Approx 0.75 hour.
