DPYD Test

A panel that examines SNPs in the DPYD gene, which processes chemotherapy agents in the fluoropyrimidine class. Certain changes in this gene can lead to severe reactions to fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. This test screens for those changes to help guide dosing and drug choice, supporting safer, more effective treatment decisions.

  • Germline test (peripheral blood or saliva)
  • Screens for significant variants in the DPYD gene
  • Currently covers 13 of 28 known changes, with more in development
  • Identifies risk of adverse reactions to fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy
  • Supports dosing and drug-choice decisions to improve patient outcomes
