  • Study on tamoxifen metabolism and breast cancer recurrence across multiple ancestries.
  • CYP2D6 metabolizer status is the primary predictor of steady-state Z-endoxifen levels.
  • TCF20 rs932376 A > G has a smaller, independent effect on endoxifen levels.
  • Neither CYP2D6 metabolizer status nor TCF20 rs932376 A > G was significantly associated with breast cancer outcomes.
  • Findings were validated in independent cohorts.
