['We investigated the association between genetic polymorphisms in ABCB1 and SLCO1B and mycophenolic acid (MPA) pharmacokinetics, and MPA-related diarrhea and leukopenia in 338 kidney transplant recipients.', 'A total of 338 patients participating in an international, randomized-controlled clinical trial were genotyped for ABCB1 and SLCO1B. Patients were all treated with mycophenolate mofetil and either cyclosporine or tacrolimus. MPA-area under the curve (AUCs), MPA-glucuronide AUCs and acylglucuronide-AUCs were measured on days 3 and 10, and months 1, 3, 6, and 12 after kidney transplantation.', 'The risk of developing diarrhea was 1.8-fold higher in patients cotreated with tacrolimus compared with patients cotreated with cyclosporine (95% confidence interval: 1.03-3.13; P=0.038). ABCB1 and SLCO1B SNPs were not associated with dose-adjusted exposure to MPA, MPA-glucuronide, nor acylglucuronide-MPA nor with the incidence of diarrhea or leukopenia.'] Is mycophenolic acid-related diarrhea associated with polymorphisms in SLCO1B nor with ABCB1 in renal transplant recipients?
