Model-Informed Precision Dosing of Intravenous Busulfan in Thai Pediatrics Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Background: Conditioning bifunctional agent, busulfan, is commonly used on children before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Currently, at the Ramathibodi hospital, Bangkok, Thailand, initial dosing is calculated according to age and body surface area, and 7 samples per day are used for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). This study aimed to identify the best strategies for individual dosages a priori from patient characteristics and a posteriori based on TDM.

Implementation of Genotyping as Standard-of-Care for Reducing Carbamazepine/Oxcarbazepine Induced Cutaneous Adverse Drug Reactions in Thailand.

This study aimed to investigate the clinical impact of pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing before carbamazepine (CBZ)/oxcarbazepine (OXC) prescriptions and to determine whether this PGx testing was associated with the reduction of CBZ/OXC-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs) in Thailand. This retrospective observational cohort study was conducted by obtaining relevant PGx-testing and clinical data from electronic medical records during 2011-2020. 384 patient data were included in this study to investigate the clinical decision on CBZ/OXC usage before and after the PGx testing, and 1,539 patient data were included in this study to demonstrate the incidence of CBZ/OXC-induced SCARs and SJS between tested and non-tested patients.

Association of UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, or ABCC2 c.3972C>T genetic polymorphisms with irinotecan-induced toxicity in Asian cancer patients: Meta-analysis.

Effects of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 genetic polymorphisms on irinotecan-induced severe toxicities in Asian cancer patients are inconclusive. Also, ABCC2 c.3972C>T may affect toxicity of irinotecan.

Evolution of Pharmacogenomics and the Importance of PGx Data Integration in Health Care System: A 10 Years Retrospective Study in Thailand.

The is the most polymorphic gene, play a crucial role in drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions. There is a lot of evidence associating several risk alleles to life-threatening adverse drug reactions, and a few of them have been approved as valid biomarkers for predicting life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions. The objective of this present study is to present the progression of pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing in the Thai population during a 10-year period, from 2011 to 2020.

as a Predictor of 6-Mercaptopurine-Induced Myelotoxicity in Thai Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

The response to 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) can be altered by genetic polymorphisms in genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between genetic polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzymes ( > (), > and > ) and drug transporters ( > and > ) with 6-MP-related myelotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in Thai children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The prescribed dosage of 6-MP and its adverse effects were assessed from medical records during the first 8 weeks and 9-24 weeks of maintenance therapy.

Allele frequencies of single nucleotide polymorphisms of clinically important drug-metabolizing enzymes CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 in a Thai population.

Prior knowledge of allele frequencies of cytochrome P450 polymorphisms in a population is crucial for the revision and optimization of existing medication choices and doses. In the current study, the frequency of the CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*6, CYP2C19*17, and CYP3A4 (rs4646437) alleles in a Thai population across different regions of Thailand was examined. Tests for polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 were performed using TaqMan SNP genotyping assay and CYP2C19 was performed using two different methods; TaqMan SNP genotyping assay and Luminex x Tag V3.
