Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Loci Associated with Opioid Analgesic Requirements in the Treatment of Cancer Pain

Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Loci Associated with Opioid Analgesic Requirements in the Treatment of Cancer Pain

Considerable individual differences have been widely observed in the sensitivity to opioids. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in patients with cancer pain to identify potential candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that contribute to individual differences in opioid ana...
