Cardiovascular pharmacogenetics [PDF]
Human genetic variation in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms as well as more complex structural variations such as insertions, deletions and copy number variants, is partially responsible for the clinical variation seen in response to pharmacotherapeutic drugs.

Individualized immunosuppression in transplant patients: potential role of pharmacogenetics. [PDF]
The immunosuppressive drugs used to prevent the rejection of transplanted organs have a narrow therapeutic index. Under treatment results in episodes of rejection leading to either damage or loss of the organ. Over immunosuppression increases the risk of

Abstract Lessons Learned Osimertinib has confirmed effectiveness in this real‐world population of patients with EGFR‐mutant advanced non‐small cell lung cancer. Thromboembolic events occur more frequently than previously reported, suggesting a thrombotic diathesis that requires further investigation. Patients with at least three metastatic sites, brain

Pharmacogenetics of asthma [PDF]
Pharmacogenetics offers the potential to optimize treatment for individual patients by using genetic information to improve efficacy or avoid side effects. While there are a number of examples in which the approach is already in routine clinical usage, exploitation of this approach in asthma is still under development.

The effects of pharmacogenetics on pharmacokinetics of artemisinin-based combinations in malaria patients [PDF]
Malaria is a vector-borne infectious disease caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. If not treated appropriately, human P. falciparum malaria can quickly become life-threatening, leading to an estimated 900’000 annual deaths globally. Key

Pharmacogenetics of Asthma [PDF]
Recent advances in the extent of knowledge regarding interindividual genetic variation in drug treatment targets and drug metabolizing enzymes has resulted in studies designed to assess the contribution of genetic variability to treatment response in a range of diseases. This review describes the current state of knowledge of genetic variability in key
