CYP2D6 alleles with low frequency in Eurocentrically biased study populations are often excluded from pharmacogenetic investigation and consequently may have misassigned activity values. This health inequity may be contributing to imprecise dose predictions for CYP2D6‐metabolizing drugs.

Building a Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Model Toward Precision Medicine: Case Study in Melanoma
BackgroundMany drugs do not work the same way for everyone owing to distinctions in their genes. Pharmacogenomics (PGx) aims to understand how genetic variants influence drug efficacy and toxicity.

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 ...

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 ...

Pregnant women frequently take prescription and over the counter medications. The efficacy of medications is affected by the many physiological changes during pregnancy, and these events may be further impacted by genetic factors. Research on pharmacogenomic and pharmacokinetic influences on drug disposition during pregnancy has lagged behind other ...

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.
