Abstract
Drug development is a long and costly process, often limited by the toxicity and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) caused by drug candidates. Even on the market, some drugs can cause strong ADRs that can vary depending on an individual polymorphism. The development of Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) allowed the discovery of genetic variants of interest that may cause these effects. In this study, the objective was to investigate a deep learning approach to predict genetic variations potentially related to ADRs. We used single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) information from dbSNP to create a network based on ADR-drug-target-mutations and extracted matrixes of interaction to build deep Neural Networks (DNN) models. Considering only information about mutations known to impact drug efficacy and drug safety from PharmGKB and drug adverse reactions based on the MedDRA System Organ Classes (SOCs), these DNN models reached a balanced accuracy of 0.61 in average. Including molecular fingerprints representing structural features of the drugs did not improve the performance of the models. To our knowledge, this is the first model that exploits DNN to predict ADR-drug-target-mutations. Although some improvements are suggested, these models can be of interest to analyze multiple compounds over all of the genes and polymorphisms information accessible and thus pave the way in precision medicine.

Abstract
Personalized medicine can reduce adverse effects, enhance drug efficacy, and optimize treatment outcomes, which represents the essence of personalized medicine in the pharmacy field. Protein drugs are crucial in the field of personalized drug therapy and are currently the mainstay, which possess higher target specificity and biological activity than small-molecule chemical drugs, making them efficient in regulating disease-related biological processes, and have significant potential in the development of personalized drugs. Currently, protein drugs are designed and developed for specific protein targets based on patient-specific protein data. However, due to the rapid development of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, it is now widely recognized that a canonical protein actually includes multiple proteoforms, and the differences between these proteoforms will result in varying responses to drugs. The variation in the effects of different proteoforms can be significant and the impact can even alter the intended benefit of a drug, potentially making it harmful instead of lifesaving. As a result, we propose that protein drugs should shift from being targeted through the lens of protein (proteomics) to being targeted through the lens of proteoform (proteoformics). This will enable the development of personalized protein drugs that are better equipped to meet patients' specific needs and disease characteristics. With further development in the field of proteoformics, individualized drug therapy, especially personalized protein drugs aimed at proteoforms as a drug target, will improve the understanding of disease mechanisms, discovery of new drug targets and signaling pathways, provide a theoretical basis for the development of new drugs, aid doctors in conducting health risk assessments and making more cost-effective targeted prevention strategies conducted by artificial intelligence/machine learning, promote technological innovation, and provide more convenient treatment tailored to individualized patient profile, which will benefit the affected individuals and society at large.

Assessment of the current status of real-world pharmacogenomic testing: informed consent, patient education, and related practices. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1355412. [PMID: 38410134 PMCID: PMC10895424 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1355412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The practice of informed consent (IC) for pharmacogenomic testing in clinical settings varies, and there is currently no consensus on which elements of IC to provide to patients. This study aims to assess current IC practices for pharmacogenomic testing. Methods: An online survey was developed and sent to health providers at institutions that offer clinical germline pharmacogenomic testing to assess current IC practices. Results: Forty-six completed surveys representing 43 clinical institutions offering pharmacogenomic testing were received. Thirty-two (74%) respondents obtain IC from patients with variability in elements incorporated. Results revealed that twenty-nine (67%) institutions discuss the benefits, description, and purpose of pharmacogenomic testing with patients. Less commonly discussed elements included methodology and accuracy of testing, and laboratory storage of samples. Discussion: IC practices varied widely among survey respondents. Most respondents desire the establishment of consensus IC recommendations from a trusted pharmacogenomics organization to help address these disparities.

Neurochem Int 2024; 173:105672. [PMID: 38157886 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuint.2023.105672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
Neuropsychiatric disorders are considered to be the most common cause of disability worldwide. Serotonin and its transporter is a prominent paradigm in mood disorders. Response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) is altered due to heterogeneity in the serotonin transporter gene, SLC6A4 (solute carrier family 6 member 4). The reported polymorphisms are found to be in different regions of the transporter gene: promoter region (5-HTTLPR and various single nucleotide polymorphisms within it), intron (STin2), and exon 9 (I425V). The long and short alleles of the 5-HTTLPR gene, which are prevalent among variations, may mediate differential effects. In long allelic variant carriers, an increased response to SSRI and timely recovery is due to increased availability of SERT. Whereas, SERT availability is significantly decreased in short allelic carriers, necessitating a reduction in SSRI dosage due to the increased risk of adverse drug reactions. Thus, pharmacogenetic investigations are required to understand the impact of functional variations on the efficacy and tolerability of SSRI. Identifying the carrier variants may aid in clear-decision making of the treatment regimen, aiding the approach of personalized medication.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Response to medications can differ widely among individual patients. Adverse drug reactions can lead to serious morbidity and mortality. Pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing can predict responses to medications and increased risks of adverse events where the genetic basis is understood. Several published manuscripts suggest positive impacts of systematic preemptive PGx testing. However, few studies have been conducted on PGx implementation in the Military Health System (MHS). MATERIAL AND METHODS A cross-sectional study of adult beneficiaries in a primary care clinic at a large military treatment facility was conducted in 2022. Participants underwent PGx genotyping of CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 genes at the Defense Health Agency Genetics Reference Laboratory. Participant medication lists were compared to the current Clinical Pharmacogenetic Implementation Consortium (CPIC) PGx gene-drug guidelines to assess potential actionability of these results. RESULTS Genotyping of CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 in 165 MHS beneficiaries (mean age: 65 years) revealed that 81.2% of participants had at least one abnormal PGx finding. Among those with an abnormal PGx result, 65% were taking a medication listed on the CPIC website with an association with the particular gene in which the finding was identified. In addition, 78% of all of the participants in the study were taking at least one medication that is metabolized by CYP2C19 or CYP2D6 with associated CPIC guidelines. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacogenetic testing for CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 identified a substantial proportion of MHS patients at a single center who could benefit from evaluation of current medication regimens based on the CPIC guidelines. Individualized medical management may be warranted to a greater degree than previously recognized based on the findings given possible differences in medication metabolism. Many MHS beneficiaries already take medications metabolized by CYP2C19 and CYP2D6, and a substantial proportion may be at risk for preventable adverse events for medications metabolized by these enzymes. While preliminary, a large number of actionable polymorphisms among a relatively small set of individuals taking at-risk medications suggest that implementing PGx testing in clinical practice may be beneficial in the MHS with appropriate clinical infrastructure.

Association between CYP3A4/CYP3A5 genetic polymorphisms and treatment outcomes of atorvastatin worldwide: is there enough research on the Egyptian population? Eur J Med Res 2023; 28:381. [PMID: 37759317 PMCID: PMC10523700 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-023-01038-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Atorvastatin is regarded as the most frequently prescribed statin worldwide for dyslipidemia. However, clinical response and risk of adverse effects to statin therapy are associated with genetic variations. Numerous research linked statins pharmacokinetics (PK) variations to genetic polymorphisms in cytochromes P450 (CYPs) metabolic enzymes. OBJECTIVE This article reviews the association between CYP3A4/5 genetic variations and response to atorvastatin therapy globally, which includes atorvastatin PK, and the risk for adverse reactions, with a hint to the Egyptians. METHODS Up to March 30, 2022, electronic medical databases like PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Egyptian Knowledge Bank (EKB) were searched. All articles that highlighted the relationship between CYP3A4/5 genetic polymorphisms and atorvastatin efficacy/safety profile were included in this review. RESULTS Initially, 492 articles were retrieved after an exhaustive search. There were 24 articles included according to the inclusion criteria. Findings of association studies of CYP3A4/5 genetic polymorphisms with response to atorvastatin varied among different ethnicities. CYP3A4*1B was associated with better therapeutic outcomes after atorvastatin therapy in Chileans and vice versa in Americans. Caucasians with myalgia while using atorvastatin were at significant risk of suffering severe muscle damage if they were carriers of CYP3A5*3/*3. As far as we can report for the Egyptian population, the impact of CYP3A4/5 genetic variations on the response to atorvastatin therapy was understudied. CONCLUSION More pharmacogenetic studies amongst diverse populations worldwide, like the Egyptian population, are necessary to detect further atorvastatin-gene interactions.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics can improve clinical outcomes by reducing adverse drug effects and enhancing therapeutic efficacy for commonly used drugs that treat a wide range of cardiovascular diseases. One of the major barriers to the clinical implementation of cardiovascular pharmacogenetics is limited education on this field for current healthcare providers and students. The abundance of pharmacogenetic literature underscores its promise, but it can also be challenging to learn such a wealth of information. Moreover, current clinical recommendations for cardiovascular pharmacogenetics can be confusing because they are outdated, incomplete, or inconsistent. A myriad of misconceptions about the promise and feasibility of cardiovascular pharmacogenetics among healthcare providers also has halted clinical implementation. Therefore, the main goal of this tutorial is to provide introductory education on the use of cardiovascular pharmacogenetics in clinical practice. The target audience is any healthcare provider (or student) with patients that use or have indications for cardiovascular drugs. This tutorial is organized into the following 6 steps: (1) understand basic concepts in pharmacogenetics; (2) gain foundational knowledge of cardiovascular pharmacogenetics; (3) learn the different organizations that release cardiovascular pharmacogenetic guidelines and recommendations; (4) know the current cardiovascular drugs/drug classes to focus on clinically and the supporting evidence; (5) discuss an example patient case of cardiovascular pharmacogenetics; and (6) develop an appreciation for emerging areas in cardiovascular pharmacogenetics. Ultimately, improved education among healthcare providers on cardiovascular pharmacogenetics will lead to a greater understanding for its potential in improving outcomes for a leading cause of morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the cost-effectiveness of Arg16Gly ADRB2 pharmacogenomic testing compared with no Arg16Gly ADRB2 testing to guide the use of long-acting β2 receptor agonist (LABA) in asthma patients aged 1 to 5 years in China. METHODS This economic evaluation developed a Markov model with four health states (no exacerbation, mild exacerbation, moderate-to-severe exacerbation, and death). Transition probabilities were estimated from the rate of exacerbations, the case-fatality rate of patients hospitalized for exacerbations, and natural mortality. Costs included drug costs and exacerbation management costs. Cost inputs and utilities for each health state were gained from public databases and the literatures. Costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) were estimated for ten years. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed. RESULTS In the base case analysis, in contrast to the group without the genotype test, the incremental total cost was -¥334.7, and the incremental QALY was 0.001 in the Arg16Gly ADRB2 genotyping group. Therefore, the Arg16Gly ADRB2 test group was the dominant strategy for children with asthma in China. The sensitivity analyses showed that the model was relatively stable. CONCLUSION Arg16Gly ADRB2 testing before using LABA is a cost-effective approach compared with no gene testing for pediatric asthma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The bronchodilator response (BDR) depends on many factors, including genetic ones. Numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influencing BDR have been identified. However, despite several studies in this field, genetic variations are not currently being utilized to support the use of bronchodilators. AREAS COVERED In this narrative review, the possible impact of genetic variants on BDR is discussed. EXPERT OPINION Pharmacogenetic studies of β2-agonists have mainly focused on ADRB2 gene. Three SNPs, A46G, C79G, and C491T, have functional significance. However, other uncommon variants may contribute to individual variability in salbutamol response. SNPs haplotypes in ADRB2 may have a role. Many variants in genes coding for muscarinic ACh receptor (mAChR) have been reported, particularly in the M2 and, to a lesser degree, M3 mAChRs, but no consistent evidence for a pharmacological relevance of these SNPs has been reported. Moreover, there is a link between SNPs and ethnic and/or age profiles regarding BDR. Nevertheless, replication of pharmacogenetic results is limited and often, BDR is dissociated from what is expected based on SNP identification. Pharmacogenetic studies on bronchodilators must continue. However, they must integrate data derived from a multi-omics approach with epigenetic factors that may modify BDR.

Abstract
This review summarises the long period in which man has approached nature to understand its powers, and has tried to control it through physical and chemical, and also magical, practices. From the attempt to manage nature to the development of primordial drugs and medical practices and later to achieve modern biomedical science, laboratory practices always played a pivotal role. Over the years and centuries, the laboratory has acquired more and more importance in the improvement of health.In addition to the well-known importance of laboratory medicine in the early diagnosis and appropriateness, the discoveries of the last 50 years have also given the Laboratory a decisive role in regenerative and personalised medicine.This paper examines the evolution of the laboratory and is not meant to be a treatise on the history of medicine. The goal is to highlight the moments of the transition from magic and alchemy to laboratory science.-------------------------------Roberto Verna is President of the World Association of Societies of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and President of the Academy for Health and Clinical Research.

[PMID: 36299640 PMCID: PMC9589202 DOI: 10.1016/j.rcsop.2022.100192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is a rapidly growing field which promises to deliver personalized, more effective medications tailored to genetic information. Although the pharmacy profession is expected to lead the translation of pharmacogenomics into widespread clinical implementation, there is a reported lack of preparedness among its members. Assessing pharmacogenomic-related training in Australian pharmacy program curricula may highlight educational gaps and provide guidance for curricula revision. Objective To examine pharmacogenomic content in Australian tertiary pharmacy program curricula. Methods We reviewed the curriculum of 22 Australian registrable pharmacy degrees, including 16 Bachelors of Pharmacy programs (with or without honors) and six Masters of Pharmacy programs, for content related to pharmacogenomics and genetics. This was done by screening the publicly available electronic course profiles on each institution's website and searching for key terms such as "pharmacogenomics," "pharmacogenetics," "genes," and "genetics". Three mapping activities were completed to assess the breadth and depth of pharmacogenomic training according to; 1. Bloom's taxonomy, 2. Author-assigned domains comprising; Enabling science, Translational science and Clinical implementation, and 3. Pharmacogenomic competencies from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). Results A total of 18 (82%) pharmacy registrable degree programs incorporated pharmacogenomics and/or genetics in their curricula. Four programs (18%) offered standalone PGx courses and 10 (45%) contained integrated PGx content in other science-related courses (i.e. pharmaceutical biology, biochemistry, microbiology etc.). Mapping activities showed that most learning objectives related to the "Understand" level of Bloom's taxonomy (61%), the "Basic Genetic Concepts" domain of NHGRI's competencies (64%) and "Enabling science" (84%). Conclusions Most Australian pharmacy registrable degrees have incorporated pharmacogenomic content in their curricula however, the scope of training is limited. Revisions to course curricula should be made to incorporate additional education with a focus on application-based training of clinical pharmacogenomics.

Liu F, Jiang X, Yang J, Tao J, Zhang M. A chronotherapeutics-applicable multi-target therapeutics based on AI: Example of therapeutic hypothermia. Brief Bioinform 2022; 23:6694809. [PMID: 36088545 PMCID: PMC9487598 DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbac365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 07/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Nowadays, the complexity of disease mechanisms and the inadequacy of single-target therapies in restoring the biological system have inevitably instigated the strategy of multi-target therapeutics with the analysis of each target individually. However, it is not suitable for dealing with the conflicts between targets or between drugs. With the release of high-precision protein structure prediction artificial intelligence, large-scale high-precision protein structure prediction and docking have become possible. In this article, we propose a multi-target drug discovery method by the example of therapeutic hypothermia (TH). First, we performed protein structure prediction for all protein targets of each group by AlphaFold2 and RoseTTAFold. Then, QuickVina 2 is used for molecular docking between the proteins and drugs. After docking, we use PageRank to rank single drugs and drug combinations of each group. The ePharmaLib was used for predicting the side effect targets. Given the differences in the weights of different targets, the method can effectively avoid inhibiting beneficial proteins while inhibiting harmful proteins. So it could minimize the conflicts between different doses and be friendly to chronotherapeutics. Besides, this method also has potential in precision medicine for its high compatibility with bioinformatics and promotes the development of pharmacogenomics and bioinfo-pharmacology.

Abstract
This article considers the use of the term psychodynamics. I reflect on a recent exchange with a reviewer who suggested that the adjective psychodynamic is the preferred term, and I make a case for the importance of the noun form. The implication of the elimination of the noun form may have far-reaching unconscious meaning about the perception of psychodynamics, and whether psychodynamics exists only when there is conscious effort of its application, such as in outpatient psychotherapy. This has bearing on how psychodynamics is currently taught in training programs and perhaps the role of psychodynamics in larger practice.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is increasingly important to guide objective, safe, and effective individualised prescribing. Personalised prescribing has revolutionised treatments in the past decade, allowing clinicians to maximise drug efficacy and minimise adverse effects based on a person’s genetic profile. Opioids, the gold standard for cancer pain relief, are among the commonest medications prescribed in palliative care practice. This narrative review examines the literature surrounding opioid pharmacogenomics and its applicability to the palliative care cancer population. There is currently limited intersection between the fields of palliative care and pharmacogenomics, but growing evidence presents a need to build linkages between the two disciplines. Pharmacogenomic evidence guiding opioid prescribing is currently available for codeine and tramadol, which relates to CYP2D6 gene variants. However, these medications are prescribed less commonly for pain in palliative care. Research is accelerating with other opioids, where oxycodone (CYP2D6) and methadone (CYP2B6, ABCB1) already have moderate evidence of an association in terms of drug metabolism and downstream analgesic response and side effects. OPRM1 and COMT are receiving increasing attention and have implications for all opioids, with changes in opioid dosage requirements observed but they have not yet been studied widely enough to be considered clinically actionable. Current evidence indicates that incorporation of pharmacogenomic testing into opioid prescribing practice should focus on the CYP2D6 gene and its actionable variants. Although opioid pharmacogenomic tests are not widely used in clinical practice, the progressively reducing costs and rapid turnover means greater accessibility and affordability to patients, and thus, clinicians will be increasingly asked to provide guidance in this area. The upsurge in pharmacogenomic research will likely discover more actionable gene variants to expand international guidelines to impact opioid prescribing. This rapidly expanding area requires consideration and monitoring by clinicians in order for key findings with clinical implications to be accessible, meaningfully interpretable and communicated.

Abstract
Precision medicine has greatly aided in improving health outcomes using earlier diagnosis and better prognosis for chronic diseases. It makes use of clinical data associated with the patient as well as their multi-omics/genomic data to reach a conclusion regarding how a physician should proceed with a specific treatment. Compared to the symptom-driven approach in medicine, precision medicine considers the critical fact that all patients do not react to the same treatment or medication in the same way. When considering the intersection of traditionally distinct arenas of medicine, that is, artificial intelligence, healthcare, clinical genomics, and pharmacogenomics—what ties them together is their impact on the development of precision medicine as a field and how they each contribute to patient-specific, rather than symptom-specific patient outcomes. This study discusses the impact and integration of these different fields in the scope of precision medicine and how they can be used in preventing and predicting acute or chronic diseases. Additionally, this study also discusses the advantages as well as the current challenges associated with artificial intelligence, healthcare, clinical genomics, and pharmacogenomics.

Abstract
Background: The different pharmacological effects of drugs in different people can be explained by the polymorphisms of drug metabolism-related genes. Emerging studies have realized the importance of drug metabolism-related genes in the treatment and prognosis of cancers, including ovarian cancer (OV). In this study, using comprehensive bioinformatics and western blot, we identified that the drug metabolism-related gene, ADH1B, was significantly down-regulated in OV cells and tissues. The patients with a high level of ADH1B presented a good prognosis. We also found a negative correlation between ADH1B expression and the activity of chemotherapeutic agents, such as cyclophosphamide. In addition, positive correlations were observed between ADH1B expression and multiple immune checkpoints, including LAG3 and HAVCR2. The immune infiltration analysis further indicated that aberrantly expressed ADH1B might have important roles in regulating the infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils in OV tissues. Then, the co-expression analysis was conducted and the top three enriched KEGG pathways were spliceosome, RNA transport, and DNA replication. In conclusion, the drug metabolism-related gene ADH1B and its interactive network play an essential role in the immune regulation and therapeutic response and maybe identified as promising therapeutic targets for OV patients.

Abstract
Proposing efficient prophylactic and therapeutic strategies for coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) requires precise knowledge of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pathogenesis. An array of platforms, including organoids and microfluidic devices, have provided a basis for studies of SARS-CoV-2. Here, we summarize available models as well as novel drug screening approaches, from simple to more advanced platforms. Notably, organoids and microfluidic devices offer promising perspectives for the clinical translation of basic science, such as screening therapeutics candidates. Overall, modifying these advanced micro and macro 3D platforms for disease modeling and combining them with recent advances in drug screening has significant potential for the discovery of novel potent drugs against COVID-19.

Abstract
Aim: To determine if interventional cardiologists' knowledge and attitudes toward pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing influenced their antiplatelet prescribing decisions in response to CYP2C19 results. Materials & methods: Surveys were administered prior to participating in a randomized trial of CYP2C19 testing. Associations between baseline knowledge/attitudes and agreement with the genotype-guided antiplatelet recommendations were determined using multivariable logistic regression. Results: 50% believed that PGx testing would be valuable to predict medication toxicity or efficacy. 64% felt well informed about PGx testing and its therapeutic application. However, PGx experience, knowledge, nor attitudes were significantly associated with agreement to genotype-guided antiplatelet recommendations. Conclusion: Cardiologists' knowledge and attitudes were not associated with CYP2C19-guided antiplatelet prescribing, but larger studies should be done to confirm this finding.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) rank as one of the top 10 leading causes of death and illness in developed countries. ADRs show differential features depending upon genotype, age, sex, race, pathology, drug category, route of administration, and drug–drug interactions. Pharmacogenomics (PGx) provides the physician effective clues for optimizing drug efficacy and safety in major problems of health such as cardiovascular disease and associated disorders, cancer and brain disorders. Important aspects to be considered are also the impact of immunopharmacogenomics in cutaneous ADRs as well as the influence of genomic factors associated with COVID-19 and vaccination strategies. Major limitations for the routine use of PGx procedures for ADRs prevention are the lack of education and training in physicians and pharmacists, poor characterization of drug-related PGx, unspecific biomarkers of drug efficacy and toxicity, cost-effectiveness, administrative problems in health organizations, and insufficient regulation for the generalized use of PGx in the clinical setting. The implementation of PGx requires: (i) education of physicians and all other parties involved in the use and benefits of PGx; (ii) prospective studies to demonstrate the benefits of PGx genotyping; (iii) standardization of PGx procedures and development of clinical guidelines; (iv) NGS and microarrays to cover genes with high PGx potential; and (v) new regulations for PGx-related drug development and PGx drug labelling.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) can optimize drug therapy in psychiatry and is particularly important in admixed populations. Here we developed and successfully validated a questionnaire for assessing the perception and knowledge of PGx among Brazilian psychiatrists. Overall, the participants showed some familiarity with PGx. Most psychiatrists reported to have knowledge of PGx and recognized its usefulness in psychiatry; however, they declared concerns regarding PGx education, the request of tests and their interpretation, cost-effectiveness, and ethical issues. PGx testing is relatively prevalent in their clinical practice, but education on the topic is lacking. Bivariate analysis revealed significant associations. Psychiatrists > 40 years of age more frequently had a positive perception of other clinicians' familiarity with PGx. Psychiatrists in private health services showed less self-reported competency in the use of PGx testing. Furthermore, women had better perception of PGx education. The present study adds knowledge about PGx in psychiatry and encourages the development of educational and training resources for PGx to improve its clinical implementation.

Abstract
Background: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a common and serious adverse drug reaction with insufficient clinical diagnostic strategies and treatment methods. The only clinically well-received method is the Roussel UCLAF Causality Assessment Method scale, which can be applied to both individuals and prospective or retrospective studies. However, in severe cases, patients with DILI still would develop acute liver failure or even death. Pharmacogenomics, a powerful tool to achieve precision medicine, has been used to study the polymorphism of DILI related genes. Summary: We summarized the pathogenesis of DILI and findings on associated genes and variations with DILI, including but not limited to HLA genes, drug metabolizing enzymes, and transporters genes, and pointed out further fields for DILI related pharmacogenomics study to provide references for DILI clinical diagnosis and treatment. Key Messages: At present, most of the studies are mainly limited to CGS and GWAS, and there is still a long way to achieve clinical transformation. DNA methylation could be a new consideration, and ethnic differences and special populations also deserve attention.

METABOLOMICS REVEALS BIOMARKERS IN HUMAN URINE AND PLASMA TO PREDICT CYP2D6 ACTIVITY. Br J Pharmacol 2021; 178:4708-4725. [PMID: 34363609 PMCID: PMC9290485 DOI: 10.1111/bph.15651] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Revised: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Purpose Individualized assessment of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) activity is usually performed through phenotyping following administration of a probe drug to measure the enzyme's activity. To avoid any iatrogenic harm (allergic drug reaction, dosing error) related to the probe drug, the development of non‐burdensome tools for real‐time phenotyping of CYP2D6 could significantly contribute to precision medicine. This study focuses on the identification of markers of the CYP2D6 enzyme in human biofluids using an LC‐high‐resolution mass spectrometry‐based metabolomic approach. Experimental Approach Plasma and urine samples from healthy volunteers were analysed before and after intake of a daily dose of paroxetine 20 mg over 7 days. CYP2D6 genotyping and phenotyping, using single oral dose of dextromethorphan 5 mg, were also performed in all participants. Key Results We report four metabolites of solanidine and two unknown compounds as possible novel CYP2D6 markers. Mean relative intensities of these features were significantly reduced during the inhibition session compared with the control session (n = 37). Semi‐quantitative analysis showed that the largest decrease (−85%) was observed for the ion m/z 432.3108 normalized to solanidine (m/z 398.3417). Mean relative intensities of these ions were significantly higher in the CYP2D6 normal–ultrarapid metabolizer group (n = 37) compared with the poor metabolizer group (n = 6). Solanidine intensity was more than 15 times higher in CYP2D6‐deficient individuals compared with other volunteers. Conclusion and Implications The applied untargeted metabolomic strategy identified potential novel markers capable of semi‐quantitatively predicting CYP2D6 activity, a promising discovery for personalized medicine.

Abstract
Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide and, despite the availability of numerous antidepressants, the lack of standardized criteria to apply personalized prescription is still a major issue. Pharmacogenetic (PGx) markers in cytochrome P450 (CYP450) genes are already usable to guide antidepressant choice/titration according to clinical guidelines; they are an important step toward personalized psychiatry as they can reduce the time to identify an effective and tolerated treatment. Clinical application is still limited due to the financial and organizational challenges, but the number of services providing genotyping of pharmacogenes is increasing, with encouraging projections of cost-effectiveness. Critical aspects that emerged from the available studies are the importance of integration of genotyping results in electronic medical records, standardization, and regular updates of decision support systems, training and collaboration of different professionals, need of longer follow-ups to estimate cost-effectiveness, and importance of avoiding inequalities in access to genotyping. Diversities exist among the groups of patients to whom genotyping is offered (pre-emptive or reactive testing) and the type of clinical services (e.g., hospitals and primary care), currently without a consensus on which is the best approach. Future studies should aim to clarify these issues, as well as consider and compare PGx applications among different countries and healthcare systems. Finally, the extension of genotyping outside pharmacokinetic genes should be considered as a key step to improve the clinical impact of PGx, as this could significantly increase the variance explained in treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Through pharmacogenomics testing, identifying genetic variants that influence how individuals respond to medications could potentially decrease the "trial and error" approach to prescribing medications, maximize beneficial effects, and reduce risks of adverse drug events. Yet, pharmacogenomics testing is still subject to an ongoing debate over its clinical validity and utility. The purpose of the current integrative review was to examine and synthesize evidence on the clinical application of pharmacogenomics in medication management among older adults. Gaps were found, such as lack of studies investigating the prospective use of pharmacogenomics testing to improve clinical outcomes and lack of strong evidence on the clinical validity and utility of pharmacogenomics testing in the medication management of older adults. However, the review identified evidence for the potential benefits of pharmacogenomics testing to improve older adults' clinical outcomes that warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Several barriers present challenges to implementing pharmacogenomics into practice. This review will provide an overview of the current pharmacogenomics practices and research in Thailand, address the challenges and lessons learned from delivering clinical pharmacogenomic services in Thailand, emphasize the pharmacogenomics implementation issues that must be overcome, and identify current pharmacogenomic initiatives and plans to facilitate clinical implementation of pharmacogenomics in Thailand. Ever since the pharmacogenomics research began in 2004 in Thailand, a multitude of pharmacogenomics variants associated with drug responses have been identified in the Thai population, such as HLA-B∗15:02 for carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine, HLA-B∗58:01 for allopurinol, HLA-B∗13:01 for dapsone and cotrimoxazole, CYP2B6 variants for efavirenz, CYP2C9∗3 for phenytoin and warfarin, CYP3A5∗3 for tacrolimus, and UGT1A1∗6 and UGT1A1∗28 for irinotecan, etc. The future of pharmacogenomics guided therapy in clinical settings across Thailand appears promising because of the availability of evidence of clinical validity of the pharmacogenomics testing and support for reimbursement of pharmacogenomics testing.

Abstract
Non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (non-variceal UGIB) is a frequent and severe adverse drug reaction. Idiosyncratic responses due to genetic susceptibility to non-variceal UGIB has been suggested. A systematic review was conducted to assess the association between genetic polymorphisms and non-variceal UGIB. Twenty-one publications and 7134 participants were included. Thirteen studies evaluated genetic polymorphism in patients exposed to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, low-dose aspirin, and warfarin. Eight studies present at least one methodological problem. Only six studies clearly defined that the outcome evaluated was non-variceal UGIB. Genetic polymorphisms involved in platelet activation and aggregation, angiogenesis, inflammatory process, and drug metabolism were associated with risk of non-variceal UGIB (NOS3, COX-1; COX-2; PLA2G7; GP1BA; GRS; IL1RN; F13A1; CDKN2B-AS1; DPP6; TBXA2R; TNF-alpha; VKORC1; CYP2C9; and AGT). Further well-designed studies are needed (e.g., clear restriction to non-variceal UGIB; proper selection of participants; and adjustment of confounding factors) to provide strong evidence for pharmacogenetic and personalized medicine.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is a study of how the genome background is associated with drug resistance and how therapy strategy can be modified for a certain person to achieve benefit. The pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing becomes of great opportunity for physicians to make the proper decision regarding each non-trivial patient that does not respond to therapy. Although pharmacogenomics has become of growing interest to the healthcare market during the past five to ten years the exact mechanisms linking the genetic polymorphisms and observable responses to drug therapy are not always clear. Therefore, the success of PGx testing depends on the physician's ability to understand the obtained results in a standardized way for each particular patient. The review aims to lead the reader through the general conception of PGx and related issues of PGx testing efficiency, personal data security, and health safety at a current clinical level.

Abstract
The advent of next generation DNA sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized clinical medicine by enabling wide‐spread testing for genomic anomalies and polymorphisms. With that explosion in testing, however, come several informatics challenges including managing large amounts of data, interpreting the results and providing clinical decision support. We present Flype, a web‐based bioinformatics platform built by a small group of bioinformaticians working in a community hospital setting, to address these challenges by allowing us to: (a) securely accept data from a variety of sources, (b) send orders to a variety of destinations, (c) perform secondary analysis and annotation of NGS data, (d) provide a central repository for all genomic variants, (e) assist with tertiary analysis and clinical interpretation, (f) send signed out data to our EHR as both PDF and discrete data elements, (g) allow population frequency analysis and (h) update variant annotation when literature knowledge evolves. We discuss the multiple use cases Flype supports such as (a) in‐house NGS tests, (b) in‐house pharmacogenomics (PGX) tests, (c) dramatic scale‐up of genomic testing using an external lab, (d) consumer genomics using two external partners, and (e) a variety of reporting tools. The source code for Flype is available upon request to the authors.

Abstract
The ongoing outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) represents a significant challenge to international health. Pharmacogenomics aims to identify the different genetic variations that exist between individuals and populations in order to determine appropriate treatment protocols to enhance the efficacy of drugs and reduce their side‐effects. This literature review provides an overview of recent studies of genetic polymorphisms in genes that mediate the SARS‐CoV‐2 infection mechanism (ACE1, ACE2, TMPRSS2 and CD26). In addition, genetic variations in the drug‐metabolising enzyme genes of several selected drugs used in the treatment of COVID‐19 are summarised. This may help construct an effective health protocol based on genetic biomarkers to optimise response to treatment. Potentially, pharmacogenomics could contribute to the development of effective high‐throughput assays to improve patient evaluation, but their use will also create ethical, medical, regulatory, and legal issues, which should now be considered in the era of personalised medicine.
