Interindividual and interethnic differences in drug efficacy drive the development and progress of pharmacogenomics and precision medicine. This study was performed to enrich the pharmacogenomic information for the Lisu population from China. 54 very important pharmacogene variants were selected from PharmGKB and genotyped in 199 Lisu individuals. The genotype distribution data of 26 populations were downloaded from the 1000 Genomes Project and analyzed with the χ test. Among the 26 populations in the 1000 Genomes Project, African Caribbeans in Barbados; Esan in Nigeria; Gambian in Western Divisions, The Gambia; Luhya in Webuye, Kenya; Yoruba in Ibadan; Finnish in Finland; Toscani in Italy and Sri Lankan Tamil in the UK were the top eight nationalities with the most significant differences in genotype distribution from the Lisu population. The loci of 5 rs776746, rs1805123, rs4291, rs1051298 and rs1065852 were significantly different in the Lisu. The results showed that there were substantial differences in SNPs of very important pharmacogene variants, which can provide a theoretical basis for individualized drug use for the Lisu.

Ibrutinib treatment is often complicated by cardiovascular side effects (CVSEs). The objective of this retrospective pharmacogenetic study is to replicate a previously reported association of 'high-risk' patients, who are homozygous carriers of at least two of GATA4 rs804280 AA, KCNQ1 rs163182 GG, and KCNQ1 rs2237895 AA, with increased risk of hypertension or atrial fibrillation, and explore associations for other pharmacogenes (e.g.

Pharmacogenetic testing can prevent severe toxicities from several oncology drug therapies; it also has the potential to improve the outcomes from supportive care drugs. Paired tumor and germline sequencing is increasingly common in oncology practice; these include sequencing of pharmacogenes, but the germline pharmacogenetic variants are rarely included in the clinical reports, despite many being clinically actionable. We established an informatics workflow to evaluate the clinical sequencing results for pharmacogenetic variants.

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.

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) pose substantial public health issues, necessitating population-specific characterization due to variations in pharmacogenes. This study delineates the pharmacogenomic (PGx) landscape of the South Korean (SKR) population, focusing on 21 core pharmacogenes. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was conducted on 396 individuals, including 99 healthy volunteers, 95 patients with chronic diseases, 81 with colon cancer, 81 with breast cancer, and 40 with gastric cancer, to identify genotype-specific drug dosing recommendations.

Genetic polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters as well as in genes encoding the human major histocompatibility complex contribute to inter-individual differences in drug efficacy and safety. The extent, pattern and complexity of such pharmacogenetic variation differ drastically across human populations. Here, we present PharmFreq, a global repository of pharmacogenetic frequency information that aggregates frequency data of 658 allelic variants from over 10 million individuals collected from >1200 studies across 144 countries.
