Guin D, Hasija Y, Kukreti R. Assessment of clinically actionable pharmacogenetic markers to stratify anti-seizure medications. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2023; 23:149-160. [PMID: 37626111 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-023-00313-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Epilepsy treatment is challenging due to heterogeneous syndromes, different seizure types and higher inter-individual variability. Identification of genetic variants predicting drug efficacy, tolerability and risk of adverse-effects for anti-seizure medications (ASMs) is essential. Here, we assessed the clinical actionability of known genetic variants, based on their functional and clinical significance and estimated their diagnostic predictability. We performed a systematic PubMed search to identify articles with pharmacogenomic (PGx) information for forty known ASMs. Functional annotation of the identified genetic variants was performed using different in silico tools, and their clinical significance was assessed using the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) guidelines for variant pathogenicity, level of evidence (LOE) from PharmGKB and the United States-Food and drug administration (US- FDA) drug labelling with PGx information. Diagnostic predictability of the replicated genetic variants was evaluated by calculating their accuracy. A total of 270 articles were retrieved with PGx evidence associated with 19 ASMs including 178 variants across 93 genes, classifying 26 genetic variants as benign/ likely benign, fourteen as drug response markers and three as risk factors for drug response. Only seventeen of these were replicated, with accuracy (up to 95%) in predicting PGx outcomes specific to six ASMs. Eight out of seventeen variants have FDA-approved PGx drug labelling for clinical implementation. Therefore, the remaining nine variants promise for potential clinical actionability and can be improvised with additional experimental evidence for clinical utility.

Abstract
Precision medicine has the potential to have a significant impact on both drug development and patient care. It is crucial to not only provide prompt effective antiseizure treatment for critically ill patients after seizures start but also have a proactive mindset and concentrate on epileptogenesis and the underlying cause of the seizures or seizure disorders. Critical illness presents different treatment issues compared with the ambulatory population, which makes it challenging to choose the best antiseizure medications and to administer them at the right time and at the right dose. Since there is a paucity of information available on antiseizure medication dosing in critically ill patients, therapeutic drug monitoring is a useful tool for defining each patient's personal therapeutic range and assisting clinicians in decision-making. Use of pharmacogenomic information relating to pharmacokinetics, hepatic metabolism, and seizure etiology may improve safety and efficacy by individualizing therapy. Studies evaluating the clinical implementation of pharmacogenomic information at the point-of-care and identification of biomarkers are also needed. These studies may make it possible to avoid adverse drug reactions, maximize drug efficacy, reduce drug-drug interactions, and optimize medications for each individual patient. This review will discuss the available literature and provide future insights on precision medicine use with antiseizure therapy in critically ill adult patients.

Abstract
Cannabis and related compounds have created significant research interest as a promising therapy in many disorders. However, the individual therapeutic effects of cannabinoids and the incidence of side effects are still difficult to determine. Pharmacogenomics may provide the answers to many questions and concerns regarding the cannabis/cannabinoid treatment and help us to understand the variability in individual responses and associated risks. Pharmacogenomics research has made meaningful progress in identifying genetic variations that play a critical role in interpatient variability in response to cannabis. This review classifies the current knowledge of pharmacogenomics associated with medical marijuana and related compounds and can assist in improving the outcomes of cannabinoid therapy and to minimize the adverse effects of cannabis use. Specific examples of pharmacogenomics informing pharmacotherapy as a path to personalized medicine are discussed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Various pharmacogenomic (PGx) variants differ widely in different ethnicities. and clinical outcomes associated with these variants may also be substantially varied. Literature was searched in different databases, i.e. PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and PharmGKB, from inception to 30 June 2022 for this review. AREAS COVERED Certain PGx variants were distinctly varied in Asian populations compared to the other human populations, e.g. CYP2C19*2,*3,*17; CYP2C9*2,*3; CYP2D6*4,*5,*10,*41; UGT1A1*6,*28; HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:21, HLA-B*58:01, and HLA-A*31:01. However, certain other variants do not vary greatly between Asian and other ethnicities, e.g. CYP3A5*3; ABCB1, and SLCO1B1*5. As evident in this review, the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was much stronger in Asian patients taking clopidogrel and who inherited the CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles, e.g. CYP2C19*2 and*3, when compared to the western/Caucasian patients. Additionally, the risk of carbamazepine-induced severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) for the patients inheriting HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*15:21 alleles varied significantly between Asian and other ethnicities. In contrast, both Caucasian and Asian patients inheriting the SLCO1B1*5 variant possessed a similar magnitude of muscle toxicity, i.e. myopathy. EXPERT OPINION Asian countries should take measures toward expanding PGx research, as well as initiatives for the purposes of obtaining clinical benefits from this newly evolving and economically viable treatment model.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
This research aims to study the association of genetic polymorphism in genes coding for CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 in phenytoin-induced dose-related toxicity and to assess if the presence of allele CYP2C9*3 plays a role in phenytoin-induced idiosyncratic adverse effects. Current observational case control study included 142 patients with phenytoin-induced adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and 100 controls. All these patients underwent genotyping to determine the type of CYP2C9 allele [CYP2C9*1, CYP2C9*2 or CYP2C9*3) and CYP2C19 allele (CYP2C19*1, CYP2C19*2 or CYP2C19*3] by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using Applied Biosystems (ABI) 7500 Real-Time PCR System (USA).
Results
Presence of homozygous status for allele CYP2C9*3 was associated with significantly higher risk of phenytoin-induced dose-dependent ADRs, dose-independent ADRs, gum hyperplasia, and skin rash. Presence of heterozygous status for allele CYP2C9*3 was associated with significantly higher risk of phyenytoin-induced dose-dependent ADRs and dose-independent ADRs. Presence of either heterozygous or homozygous status for CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C19*2 did not have any bearing on dose-related side effects. None of the patients showed CYP2C19*3 allele.
Conclusion
Variant alleles of CYP2C9*3 are significantly overexpressed among patients with phenytoin-induced ADRs, thereby suggesting the role for CYP2C9 genotype testing to predict risk of phenytoin-related ADRs.

Developmental Toxicity and Biotransformation of Two Anti-Epileptics in Zebrafish Embryos and Early Larvae. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222312696.

Abstract
The zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo is gaining interest as a bridging tool between in-vitro and in-vivo developmental toxicity studies. However, cytochrome P450 (CYP)-mediated drug metabolism in this model is still under debate. Therefore, we investigated the potential of zebrafish embryos and larvae to bioactivate two known anti-epileptics, carbamazepine (CBZ) and phenytoin (PHE), to carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (E-CBZ) and 5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (HPPH), respectively. First, zebrafish were exposed to CBZ, PHE, E-CBZ and HPPH from 5¼- to 120-h post fertilization (hpf) and morphologically evaluated. Second, the formations of E-CBZ and HPPH were assessed in culture medium and in whole-embryo extracts at different time points by targeted LC-MS. Finally, E-CBZ and HPPH formation was also assessed in adult zebrafish liver microsomes and compared with those of human, rat, and rabbit. The present study showed teratogenic effects for CBZ and PHE, but not for E-CBZ and HPPH. No HPPH was detected during organogenesis and E-CBZ was only formed at the end of organogenesis. E-CBZ and HPPH formation was also very low-to-negligible in adult zebrafish compared with the mammalian species. As such, other metabolic pathways than those of mammals are involved in the bioactivation of CBZ and PHE, or, these anti-epileptics are teratogens and do not require bioactivation in the zebrafish.
