Abstract

1020 Background: We assessed the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of potential genes of interest in germline DNA on severe adverse events in breast cancer (bc) patients receiving (neo-) adjuvant FEC chemotherapy. Methods: Cases were retrospectively evaluated through electronic chart review for febrile neutropenia (primary endpoint), febrile neutropenia first cycle, prolonged grade 4 or deep (
