The field of pharmacogenetic testing is emerging as a topic of interest for many, due to its potential to improve patient care and optimize therapeutic development. The US Food and Drug Administration is interested in incorporating pharmacogenetics into development activities whenever appropriate to protect and promote public health. This article is intended to reflect the opinions of the Office of In vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety in the Center for Devices and Radiological Health on some issues associated with developing in vitro diagnostic devices for use in pharmacogenetics. General points and potential issues related to the analytical and clinical validation of these types of devices will be discussed.

Hypothesized pharmacogenomic and medication influences on tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol metabolism in a cohort of unselected oral cannabis users.
J Cannabis Res

Division of General Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science, 200 First St SW, Rochester, MN, 55905, USA.
Background: Differences in cannabinoid metabolism and patient responses can arise even with equivalent doses and formulations. Genetic polymorphisms in genes responsible for cannabinoid metabolism and medications that alter CYP450 pathways responsible for metabolism of cannabinoids may account for some of this variability.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on a cohort of unselected patients who had previously completed pharmacogenomic testing and reported oral cannabis use, as defined as "oral" or "by mouth" route of administration.

Introduction: Pharmacogenomic testing in psychiatry is an emerging area with potential clinical application of guiding medication choice and dosing. Interest has been fanned by commercial pharmacogenomic providers who have commonly marketed combinatorial panels that are direct-to-consumer. However, this has not been adopted widely due to a combination of barriers that include a varying evidence base, clinician and patient familiarity and acceptance, uncertainty about cost-effectiveness, and regulatory requirements.

The enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is the primary catabolic pathway of fluoropyrimidines including 5 fluorouracil (5FU) and capecitabine. Cases of lethal toxicity have been reported in cancer patients with complete DPD deficiency receiving standard dose of 5FU or capecitabine. DPD is encoded by the pharmacogene DPYD in which more than 200 variants have been identified.

Introduction: Alcoholic hallucinosis (AH) is one of the severe complications of chronic alcoholism, characterized by psychotic symptoms such as auditory hallucinations and delusions. Haloperidol is widely used to treat AH; however, its therapy is often complicated by side effects. A personalized approach using pharmacogenetic testing (particularly the CYP2D6 polymorphism) allows individualization of haloperidol dosage, improving both safety and efficacy of therapy.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous malignancy that responds to various therapies. The sensitivity of leukemia cells to chemotherapy is affected by the DNA damage response (DDR). In this study, we examined the association between RAD51 rs1801320, XRCC3 rs861539, NBS1 rs1805794, MRE11 rs569143, and RAD50 rs2299014 variants of the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway and AML outcomes.
