This project investigates the skin microbiome's role in adverse reactions to the cancer drug capecitabine. By analyzing microbial interactions and their effects on drug metabolism, the research aims to enhance personalized medicine approaches in cancer treatment.
The microbiome plays relevant functions on human health and disease, including roles in the efficacy and security of drug treatments.
Capecitabine is a pro-drug of 5-fluorouracil, which is an active metabolite that targets tumor cells.
This treatment is used for diverse cancers, including colon tumors, and is commonly associated with diverse adverse reactions such as the hand-foot syndrome (HFS), a skin deterioration for which there has not been discovered its causal mechanism.
