Deficiency of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) has been linked to severe or lethal fluorouracil (FU)-related toxicity. The most prominent mutation in the DPYD gene is the IVS14+1G>A mutation, which causes skipping of exon 14 in the messenger RNA (mRNA) and results in DPD enzyme deficiency. Several methods have been described to detect this mutation, but all are labor intensive and low throughput. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to develop a high-throughput real-time PCR assay to screen patients for the IVS14+1G>A mutation.
