    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec> <jats:title>Background</jats:title> <jats:p>Fluoropyrimidine plus platinum chemotherapy remains the standard first line treatment for gastric cancer (GC). Guidelines exist for the clinical interpretation of four DPYD genotypes related to severe fluoropyrimidine toxicity within European populations. However, the frequency of these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Latin American population is low (&lt; 0.7%). No guidelines have been development for platinum. Herein, we present association between clinical factors and common SNPs in the development of grade 3–4 toxicity.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods</jats:title> <jats:p>Retrospectively, 224 clinical records of GC patient were screened, of which 93 patients were incorporated into the study. Eleven SNPs with minor allelic frequency above 5% in <jats:italic>GSTP1</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>ERCC2</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>ERCC1</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>TP53</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>UMPS</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>SHMT1</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>MTHFR</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>ABCC2</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>DPYD</jats:italic> were assessed. Association between patient clinical characteristics and toxicity was estimated using logistic regression models and classification algorithms.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Results</jats:title> <jats:p>Reported grade ≤ 2 and 3–4 toxicities were 64.6% (61/93) and 34.4% (32/93) respectively. Selected <jats:italic>DPYD</jats:italic> SNPs were associated with higher toxicity (rs1801265; OR = 4.20; 95% CI = 1.70–10.95, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.002), while others displayed a trend towards lower toxicity (rs1801159; OR = 0.45; 95% CI = 0.19–1.08; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.071). Combination of paired SNPs demonstrated significant associations in <jats:italic>DPYD</jats:italic> (rs1801265), <jats:italic>UMPS</jats:italic> (rs1801019), <jats:italic>ABCC2</jats:italic> (rs717620) and <jats:italic>SHMT1</jats:italic> (rs1979277). Using multivariate logistic regression that combined age, sex, peri-operative chemotherapy, 5-FU regimen, the binary combination of the SNPs <jats:italic>DPYD</jats:italic> (rs1801265) + <jats:italic>ABCC2</jats:italic> (rs717620), and <jats:italic>DPYD</jats:italic> (rs1801159) displayed the best predictive performance.

    <jats:p> Most children and adolescents with SARS-CoV-2 infection show no or mild symptoms, but those with medical histories can be susceptible to more severe forms of disease. There are few reported cases of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in pediatric patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We present a previously healthy 13-year-old male diagnosed with metastatic Ewing’s sarcoma at the same time as catastrophic acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19, who was successfully supported by venovenous-ECMO while he received the corresponding chemotherapy protocol. </jats:p><jats:p> ECMO can be used as salvage therapy in oncology pediatric patients with respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19. In addition, successful chemotherapy can be administered while patients are supported on ECMO. </jats:p>
