Tailoring therapy for heart failure: the pharmacogenomics of adrenergic receptor signaling. [PDF]
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of mortality in Western countries, and β-blockers are a cornerstone of its treatment. However, the response to these drugs is variable among individuals, which might be explained, at least in part, by genetic ...

Pharmacogenomics implementation efforts have increased over the last decade, but no published prospective pharmacogenomics trials have formally evaluated utility in underrepresented populations. We present final results from the ACCOuNT trial, a multi‐institutional prospective study [NCT03225820] in which African American inpatients were genotyped and ...

Economic burden of adverse drug reactions and potential for pharmacogenomic testing in Singaporean adults. [PDF]
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) contribute to hospitalization but data on its economic burden is scant. Pre-emptive pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing can potentially reduce ADRs and its associated costs.

Unraveling Novel Genetic Determinants of Thiopurine Response Via TWAS
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common childhood cancer. Thiopurines such as 6‐mercaptopurine (6MP) are essential in ALL maintenance therapy. However, dose‐limiting toxicities can significantly disrupt treatment. While genetic variants in TPMT and NUDT15 are known to affect thiopurine response, many patients with normal function ...

Pharmacogenomics of Paclitaxel [PDF]
The microtubule-stabilizing drug paclitaxel is a cytotoxic agent widely used for the treatment of a variety of tumor types. Since its introduction to the clinic, modifications to the administration schedule and treatments for hypersensitivity reactions and neutropenia have significantly improved paclitaxel therapy.

Context, ethics and pharmacogenetics [PDF]
Most of the literature on pharmacogenetics assumes that the main problems in implementing the technology will be institutional ones (due to funding or regulation) and that although it involves genetic testing, the ethical issues involved in ...

Pharmacogenomics enables the personalization of drug therapy by linking genetic variations to differences in drug metabolism, efficacy, and risk of adverse reactions. Genetic polymorphisms within cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes significantly affect enzyme activity, influencing drug plasma levels, responses, and safety.

ABSTRACT Background This study investigated the roles of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in genes of CDDP metabolism and their association with kidney dysfunction in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Methods A total of 109 patients with locally advanced HNSCC, treated with CDDP, had renal function evaluated by serum ...

What's New? Colorectal cancer (CRC) frequently metastasizes to the liver, either synchronously with primary diagnosis or metachronously, after variable time intervals. Although implicated, the role of genetic factors in driving synchronous and metachronous disease progression remains uncertain.
