- Colon cancer appropriate for resection (non-metastatic)

- Footnote i modified: Testing for DPYD genetic variants should be considered prior to fluoropyrimidine therapy. After discussions regarding risk assessment, patients may choose DPYD genetic testing. However, no specific test is recommended at this time and there are insufficient data to inform dose adjustments for many of the DPYD variants. See Principles of Pharmacogenetics (COL-J) and DPYD Testing and Fluoropyrimidine-Associated Toxicity Discussion section for more information.
COL-J
- New section added: Principles of Pharmacogenetics
