CYP2D6 protein activity can be inferred from the ratio of N-desmethyl-tamoxifen (NDMT) to endoxifen (E). CYP2D6 polymorphisms are common and can affect CYP2D6 protein activity and E level. Some retrospective studies indicate that E16nM may relate to worse outcome. A target NDMT/E ratio was defined as associated with an E level of 15nM in the 161 patient Test cohort of tamoxifen-treated patients, dichotomizing them into 'Normal' (NM) and 'Slow' (SM) CYP2D6 metabolizer groups. This ratio was then tested on a validation
