The variable expression and activity of CYP3A isozymes observed in the population has been discussed as a factor that affects both response to therapies and the individual cancer predisposition. The CYP3A4-V gene variant in the 5`-regulatory region of the CYP3A4 gene (herein referred to as CYP3A4*1B) was associated with high-grade prostate cancer (1) and with a reduced risk for treatment-related leukemia (2). It has been postulated
