Check Your Health: How RX Match can help find the right medication for you – KUTV 2News

KUTV

Rx Match is a test that analyze and interprets each patient;s unique genetic makeup to help doctors determine which medication and dosage might work best with the patient's genes.

"Rx Match is a molecular test that we use to look at a person's DNA to learn how the metabolize certain drugs," said Jason Gillman, Cancer Genomics Director, Intermountain Healthcare.

Variations in a person's DNA can impact how they metabolize and respond to different drugs. RX Match analyzes those variants using pharmacogenomics, a cutting edge field of precision medicine that studies how genes can relate to a patient's response of medication.

The test is a cheek swab, that is then sent to a lab. The results are returned to the doctor about 7 to 14 days later.

The RX Match report includes a response score on antidepressants, opioids, statins, immunosuppressants, antiabetics and many others.

By incorporating genomic information, doctors can pinpoint which medications are most likely to work for their patients. This may help reduce repeat visits for drug side effects.

:There are options there are different ways that we can be more precise in the ways that we prescribe. If a drug is not working or you feel like you might not be on the right drug speak with your physician to see if RX Match is a good match for you," said Gillman.

Joan Eggert has a history of hypertension.

"I've had high blood pressure since age 22. I've been on all kinds of medications up to three or more at once with not really great results," said Joan.

She was placed on a new blood pressure drug shortly before she went on vacation. While she was scuba diving in Fiji, she started to experience shortness of breath.

"Heard the gurgles in my lungs and knew I had Immersion Pulmonary Edema because I am a hyperbaric doctor," said Joan. "Finally we got to shore and after hours on oxygen, I was ok.

Joan was determined to figure out what went wrong. Eventually, she had an RX Match test done.

The test told her she didn't respond well to the medication she was on. Doctors switched her medication and now she is doing better.

"I finally got the answer to my question; the medication I was switched to, I don't metabolize properly," said Joan.

Myriad Genetics Announces Publication of a Meta-Analysis Demonstrating the Clinical Utility of the GeneSight Psychotropic Test in People with Major…

SALT LAKE CITY, April 20, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: MYGN, Myriad or the Company), a global leader in molecular diagnostics and precision medicine, today announced the publication of a meta-analysis of four clinical trials demonstrating that the GeneSight Psychotropic test significantly improves clinical outcomes among patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The article titled, The Clinical Utility of Combinatorial Pharmacogenetic Testing for Patients with Depression: A Meta-Analysis, appeared online in the journal Pharmacogenomics.

Many commercial insurers and health technology assessors in the United States and internationally consider meta-analyses the highest level of clinical evidence for the treatment of depression, said Bryan Dechairo, Ph.D., executive vice president of Clinical Development at Myriad. Our meta-analysis further demonstrates the consistent clinical utility of the GeneSight Psychotropic test across multiple cohorts of patients with depression. Importantly, the data showed that when clinicians used the GeneSight test to guide clinical care their patients achieved statistically significantly better remission, response and symptom improvement.

The analysis included data from four prospective, controlled trials that evaluated the clinical utility of the GeneSight test in 1,556 people with MDD and who had at least one prior antidepressant medication failure. All four studies evaluated remission, response, and symptom improvement outcomes using the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D17) among patients whose medication selection was informed by the GeneSight test results (guided care) compared to unguided care (treatment as usual). The results demonstrate that outcomes were significantly improved for patients whose care was guided by the GeneSight test compared to unguided care. Overall remission improved 49 percent (p=.001), response improved by 40 percent and (p<0.01) and symptoms improved 43 percent (p=0.019) relative to treatment as usual.

About GeneSight PsychotropicGeneSight Psychotropic is a pharmacogenomic test that analyzes clinically important variations in DNA. The results of the test can inform doctors about genes that may impact how their patients metabolize or respond to depression medications.

NCLA Warns FDA’s Over-regulation Will Adversely Affect Public Health During Crisis – GlobeNewswire

Washington, D.C., April 14, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- If weve learned anything from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is that federal agencies that overstep their authority hinder the health and safety of Americans. Other recent regulatory actions by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) threaten to undermine the ability of clinical laboratories to provide healthcare professionals and patients with information critical to optimizing drug usage and avoiding adverse events. The New Civil Liberties Alliance is especially concerned that the FDAs decision to prevent the dissemination of information related to the impact of genetic variants on drug response (Pharmacogenomics or PGx) will adversely affect public health.

Today NCLA, a nonpartisan, nonprofit civil rights group, filed commentsin support of the Citizen Petition filed on January 9, 2020, by Hyman, Phelps & McNamara, P.C. on behalf of the Coalition to Preserve Access to Pharmacogenomics (Pgx) Information. NCLAs comments focus on two concerns: (1) FDAs efforts to suppress truthful speech violate the First Amendment rights of clinical laboratories as well as of those doctors and patients who wish to receive PGx information from those labs; and (2) FDAs defense of its speech suppression cannot be reconciled with the U.S. Constitutions separation of powers. FDA claims unlimited administrative discretion to prohibit the operation of all clinical laboratories, but it does not have the power to prosecute only those laboratories that disseminate truthful information of which FDA disapproves.

FDAs position also raises significant due-process concerns because it deprives the regulated community of fair notice of how to conform its conduct to FDAs expectations and permits enforcement officials to make up the rules on the fly. Laboratories have long been at the forefront of efforts to quickly develop tests for detecting the presence of new pathogens; they need considerable flexibility to meet the publics time-sensitive need for such tests. FDA should rescind its speech-suppression policy for laboratories that engage in PGx testing. Any new FDA policy on PGx tests should be developed through a notice-and-comment rulemaking proceeding that complies with the Administrative Procedure Act.

NCLA released the following statements:

FDA simply lacks constitutional authority to adopt legislation of its own accord and then proceed to apply that legislation to the regulated community. Only Congress may adopt federal laws restricting individual liberty. FDA should grant the Citizen Petition filed by the Coalition.

Rich Samp, Senior Litigation Counsel, NCLA

Although the FDA claims its speech-suppression policy protects patients, FDAs restrictions on laboratories marketing LDTs are far more likely to cause harm than to benefit public health. Laboratories are in a unique position to disseminate truthful information about gene-drug associations for new drugs. FDAs policy denies patients optimal treatment.

Jared McClain, Staff Counsel, NCLA

ABOUT NCLA

NCLA is a nonpartisan, nonprofit civil rights group founded by prominent legal scholarPhilip Hamburgerto protect constitutional freedoms from violations by the Administrative State. NCLAs public-interest litigation and other pro bono advocacy strive to tame the unlawful power of state and federal agencies and to foster a new civil liberties movement that will help restore Americans fundamental rights.

NCLA Warns FDAs Over-regulation Will Adversely Affect Public Health During Crisis – Yahoo Finance

NCLA Comments in Support of Citizen Petition Filed on Behalf of the Coalition to Preserve Access to Pharmacogenomics (PGx) Information, Docket No. FDA-2020-P-0152

Washington, D.C., April 14, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- If weve learned anything from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is that federal agencies that overstep their authority hinder the health and safety of Americans. Other recent regulatory actions by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) threaten to undermine the ability of clinical laboratories to provide healthcare professionals and patients with information critical to optimizing drug usage and avoiding adverse events. The New Civil Liberties Alliance is especially concerned that the FDAs decision to prevent the dissemination of information related to the impact of genetic variants on drug response (Pharmacogenomics or PGx) will adversely affect public health.

Today NCLA, a nonpartisan, nonprofit civil rights group, filed commentsin support of the Citizen Petition filed on January 9, 2020, by Hyman, Phelps & McNamara, P.C. on behalf of the Coalition to Preserve Access to Pharmacogenomics (Pgx) Information. NCLAs comments focus on two concerns: (1) FDAs efforts to suppress truthful speech violate the First Amendment rights of clinical laboratories as well as of those doctors and patients who wish to receive PGx information from those labs; and (2) FDAs defense of its speech suppression cannot be reconciled with the U.S. Constitutions separation of powers. FDA claims unlimited administrative discretion to prohibit the operation of all clinical laboratories, but it does not have the power to prosecute only those laboratories that disseminate truthful information of which FDA disapproves.

FDAs position also raises significant due-process concerns because it deprives the regulated community of fair notice of how to conform its conduct to FDAs expectations and permits enforcement officials to make up the rules on the fly. Laboratories have long been at the forefront of efforts to quickly develop tests for detecting the presence of new pathogens; they need considerable flexibility to meet the publics time-sensitive need for such tests. FDA should rescind its speech-suppression policy for laboratories that engage in PGx testing. Any new FDA policy on PGx tests should be developed through a notice-and-comment rulemaking proceeding that complies with the Administrative Procedure Act.

NCLA released the following statements:

FDA simply lacks constitutional authority to adopt legislation of its own accord and then proceed to apply that legislation to the regulated community. Only Congress may adopt federal laws restricting individual liberty. FDA should grant the Citizen Petition filed by the Coalition.

Rich Samp, Senior Litigation Counsel, NCLA

Although the FDA claims its speech-suppression policy protects patients, FDAs restrictions on laboratories marketing LDTs are far more likely to cause harm than to benefit public health. Laboratories are in a unique position to disseminate truthful information about gene-drug associations for new drugs. FDAs policy denies patients optimal treatment.

Jared McClain, Staff Counsel, NCLA

ABOUT NCLA

Can connected healthcare lead to better patient outcomes? – EPM Magazine

Daniel Streetman,manager of referential content in the Metabolism, Interactions, & Genomics group with Clinical Effectiveness at Wolters Kluwer,discusses the potential for pharmacogenomics to transform prescribed drugs and reduce instances of adverse drug reactions.

Prescribing the correct drug to a patient at the correct dosage is one of the most common daily challenges faced by clinicians, especially when the drug triggers an unexpected side effect.

There are a variety of reasons why drug treatments might not work as anticipated, including the patients genetic profile. This is why more work is now taking place to understand the complex relationship between the genome and drug response, in the fast-growing field of pharmacogenomics.

Pharmacogenomics allows clinicians to use a patients genetic information to guide both drug and dose selection, meaning they become less reliant on a trial-and-error approach to prescribing. During the treatment assessment it quickly becomes possible to identify drugs likely to prove ineffective for a certain patient and whether there are unique dosing or side effect implications. With this added insight, pharmacogenomics could potentially be a game-changer for personalised medicine, having an impact across a wide range of disciplines.

A key challenge in increasing the use of genomics-based information is that many clinicians, operating under extreme pressure, dont understand it or havent had time to process it properly.

This is where clinical decision support tools like Lexicomp a point-of-care drug information resource from Wolters Kluwer has an important role to play in accelerating the use of pharmacogenomics, by making such data easier for clinicians to access.

Lexicomp has built genomics information into drug reference resources, with the aim of highlighting possibly important drug-gene pairings to clinicians in a clear, concise form, with actionable recommendations. The information should be readily available to any professional involved in drug administration, including hospital consultants, first responders, GPs and nurses as well as pharmacists.

Regulators are also encouraging the healthcare sector to embrace genomics. By providing guidance to drug companies on how to introduce biomarker information to their labelling, they have been helping legitimise the role of pharmacogenomics among the wider clinical community.

A major appeal of pharmacogenomics is that it has the potential to impact a wide range of clinical areas. Cardiology, psychology and oncology, for example, are all key areas of investigation. Some researchers also believe that an improved pharmacogenomics infrastructure could be the key to innovation in drug development for Alzheimers Disease, a condition that is projected to have a global cost to society of US$20.8 trillion between 2015-2050.

There is genuine optimism about the potential for pharmacogenomics to move into the mainstream over the next 5-10 years, especially as more patients genetic data becomes available. However, the growth of this new science could also bring challenges. One concern could be over-expectation about the possibilities of pharmacogenomics within the professional community and among patients. In a recent report into the ethics of pharmacogenetics, the Nuffield Council on Bioethics Report touched on the risk of over-promising when it said that genomics might not be about finding the right drug for the right person, but instead suggesting a potential drug preference for genetically defined groups.

Despite some of the concerns, the NHS is well-placed to drive the global pharmacogenomic agenda. The UK is already a pioneer in the field of genetic testing, with a history of sequencing genomes. The cutting-edge work into genomics by the NHS large teaching hospitals and the potential for knowledge and information-sharing between NHS Trusts could deliver these advances at scale and pace for patient benefit.

It will prove far harder for a genomic-based system to develop in countries where the healthcare system is fragmented and siloed and genetic data is less accessible.

The pace of change in genomics will be accelerated further by the new NHS Genomic Medicine Service, which should soon be operational, helping genomic screening and personalised treatments to become the norm. By 2025, it is predicted that half a million whole genomes should be sequenced through different NHS care pathways.

This scale of genomic data will be one of the key drivers to help turn pharmacogenomics from a promising new technology into a mainstream practice, leading to better and safe outcomes for patients.

Dr. Daniel S. Streetman, PharmD, MS, is the manager of referential content in the Metabolism, Interactions, & Genomics group with Clinical Effectiveness at Wolters Kluwer Health. He completed a research fellowship in clinical pharmacology, with an emphasis in pharmacogenomics, at Bassett Healthcare in Cooperstown, NY, and was a clinical faculty member at the University of Michigan for several years prior to joining Wolters Kluwer. Dr. Streetman continues to maintain an academic relationship with several schools, lecturing on pharmacogenomics and other topics.

Suicide research could be the mortality breakthrough of the 2020s – Health Data Management

Bloomberg--Whats the medical breakthrough that could save the most lives in the U.S. over the next ten years? In the 2020s, medical research will likely inch forward when it comes to major killers like heart disease and cancer. But the biggest potential to save lives could lie in learning to prevent suicide.

The rates of reported suicides have been creeping up over the last two decades. Even more disturbingly, CDC reports that the suicide death rate for teens increased 56 percent between 2007 and 2017. Rising suicide rates might be a result of many things rising levels of despair, the opioid epidemic, greater access to guns, even the proliferation of Internet groups that offer people advice on how to kill themselves. It could also be that more people are reporting suicides instead of concealing such deaths as accidents.

Its a surprisingly common form of deathmore prevalent than homicide or automobile accidents. Unlike cancer and heart disease, which are leading causes of death among the old, suicide robs people of decades of life. According to CDC statistics, it is the second most prevalent cause of death, after accidents, for people between 10 and 34 and fourth for people between 34 and 54.

Because it hasnt been all that thoroughly studied as a medical problem, theres room to cut down on that death toll even without any remarkable technological breakthrough. A streamlined three-digit suicide hotline number, approved last month by FCC, could become one of the great public health measures of the century. Further out on the frontier, researchers are having some success using artificial intelligence to identify suicidal peoplethose whose lives might be saved by talk therapy or drugs.

John Pestian, director of the computational medicine center at Cincinnati Childrens Hospital, explains that there are different kinds of suicides. Some are driven primarily by chronic mental illness, while others are more impulsive. Those with chronic mental illness may make repeated attempts. People have a powerful instinct to live, he says, and for their psychological pain to override this, it must be incredibly intense. Hes hoping to help such people through pharmacogenomicsfinding drugs that will ease their chronic emotional pain.

The more impulsive cases are simpler to preventthink of the teenager whose boyfriend or girlfriend just left, or a Wall Street trader who lost all his money, he says. If someone is going through an acute crisis and wants to jump out a window, the right words spoken at the right time might be the only treatment needed to save a life.

Renowned suicide researcher Edwin Schneidman writes in The Suicidal Mind that therapists can help people in this state by getting them to consider alternatives besides killing themselveshelping them see that that they have choices. He describes how he helped a suicidal college student who felt hopeless after she found out she was pregnant. He got her to consider which of her options was least terrible, and she recovered.

In the memorable 2003 New Yorker story Jumpers, Tad Friend describes conversations with several people who survived after jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. They told him that they recognized their mistake before they hit the water: I instantly realized that everything in my life that Id thought was unfixable was totally fixableexcept for having just jumped, one said. Another left a note saying Im going to walk to the bridge. If one person smiles at me on the way, I will not jump.

To learn more about the reasons people decide to take their own lives, Pestian and other researchers are amassing troves of data. Right now, he says, he has the biggest collection of suicide notes in the country, as well as samples of speech and body language from suicidal patients. There are clues in these that therapists can look forand patterns that algorithms can use to identify those most at risk.

He says suicide hotlines are crucial, and he approves of the idea of amending the current one, created in 2005, from the usual ten digits to just three: 988. Even so, its not quite as simple as it sounds, he says: there will also have to be the right kinds of resources at the other end of the line.

According to one news story, an FCC committee estimated that those resources would cost $570 million in the first year and $175 million the next. This is pocket change compared with, say, routine mammography, which costs Americans billions and the value of which has been called into question.

As for AI, using algorithms to predict anyones behavior can sound scary, especially the use of systems that attempt to label Facebook users as suicidal from their posts or others that gather data from users smartphones. But Pestian believes that theres potential for AI to do much good in the area of suicide, as long as its only used to support human decision-making, and humans dont delegate the decision making to machines.

He has developed algorithms that work with what he calls sentiment dataacoustic, visual or language patterns that differ between the suicidal and non-suicidal. In a paper published in 2016 in the journal Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, he applied an algorithm to interviews with a sample of 379 people, some known to be suicidal, some diagnosed with mental illness but not suicidal, and a healthy control group. The algorithm used speech, facial expressions and body language to identify the suicidal group with 85 percent accuracy.

Thats not perfect, but its better than doctors can do. Pestian has recently gotten a contract with Oak Ridge National Laboratory to apply AI to the rampant problem of suicide among veterans. According to a report from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, more than 6,000 veterans die by suicide every yeara rate 50 percent higher than that in the general adult population.

We may not know the reason for the rising suicide rate, but we do know it is killing too many people, and that those deaths ought to be preventable. While science has a pretty detailed understanding of cancer and heart problems, suicide was studied by relatively few researchers until recently.

The Innovations That Will Revolutionize Health Care in Colorado – 5280 | The Denver Magazine

Say goodbye to insulin injections and hello to snake toxins.

From penicillin to 3D-printed kidneys, the medical field has long served as a major catalyst of human ingenuity. In Colorado, that innovation doesnt appear to be slowing down. Centennial State institutions are helping pioneer treatments that could revolutionize health careboth today and in the years ahead.

A Gilded PillAbout 416,000 adults in Colorado suffer from diabetes. No wonder, then, that oral insulin (read: no more needles) is considered the holy grail of diabetes care. Denvers Creekside Endocrine Associates is part of the quest as one of only 37 places in the country testing an insulin pill developed by New Yorks Oramed Pharmaceutical. The key is ensuring the capsule reaches the liver before dissolving in stomach acid. If successful, the pill could also drastically lower the average cost of diabetes care, which is currently nearly $10,000 a year in the United States.

Conversation StarterThis past August, UCHealth introduced the world to Alexas nerdy cousin, Livi. An artificial-intelligence-based virtual assistant, Livi can be summoned on an Amazon Echo by saying Alexa, ask UCHealth. Users can then pepper her with commands like Email me information on Crohns disease or Find me a neurologist, and Livi will consult network sources to locate the information. UCHealth hopes to expand Livis capabilities over the next few years. This fall, for example, she was integrated into its electronic medical record system and mobile app so she can check your test results and appointment times.

Game TheoryIn 2017, Childrens Hospital Colorado unveiled one of the first full-time hospital gaming and technology departments in the world. Patients with movement-debilitating illnesses such as cerebral palsy get the much-needed, potentially dexterity-improving activity they require by donning virtual reality and augmented reality headsets and, for example, exploring alien planets. The diversions can also make it easier for kids to undergo difficult treatments: The anxiety a child feels before a lumbar puncturean injection of medicine into her spinal fluidmight be lessened if she can confront the procedure while wielding a lightsaber.

Snake Venom SalesmanA professor at the University of Northern Colorado might have finally found a way for serpents to pay penance for the whole exile-from-Eden thing: Stephen Mackessys Venom Analysis Lab, which launched in the mid-1990s, has shown that toxins from some venomous snakes are capable of preventing cancer cells from metastasizing. The next step (likely still years away) is finding an application method that would weaponize compounds in the venom against a humans cancer without harming the humans body.

Good GenesBoth Lutheran Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente are early practitioners of pharmacogenomicsbasically, how your DNA affects your bodys reactions to medicines. In Lutherans pilot program, primary care providers give some patients the option of a 20-second cheek swab. Pharmacists and doctors can use subsequent genetic-testing reports to provide recommendations, such as lowering a dosage because genetic traits reveal your body might absorb drugs faster or suggesting you avoid a particular medication.

Pharmacogenomics Program – mayo.edu

Drugs and Genes Conference

Getting you the right drug at the right dose at the right time is the goal of pharmacogenomics, which involves studying how your specific DNA sequence influences your response to medications.

The drugs available today to treat cancer, heart disease and other conditions are powerful agents that work as intended in most patients. Yet, in some people, a particular drug at the standard dose might not work well enough or may even trigger a serious adverse reaction. The reasons for this lie, at least in part, in your genes.

By using your unique genetic makeup as a factor when prescribing a drug for you, your doctor can maximize treatment effectiveness while avoiding potentially life-threatening side effects.

Pharmacogenomics can help us answer a broad range of questions, such as:

Results from a subset of the 77 "pharmacogenes" will be placed into the electronic health record (EHR) and an interpretive report will be placed into the patient's medical record.

Most electronic medical record systems are not equipped to alert the pharmacist or physician to these drug-gene interactions. The RIGHT10K study is utilizing the infrastructure built together with the RIGHT study at Mayo Clinic, which alerts to physicians in the drug prescription process so that patients get the right drug at the right time in the right amount.

The BEAUTY study performed whole-genome sequencing before and after neoadjuvant therapy (drug therapy before surgery) in women newly diagnosed with breast cancer.

Pharmacogenomics Program researchers are then comparing then compared the tumor genome before and after neoadjuvant therapy against the patient's germline genome the sequence of DNA in normal, noncancerous tissue in order to match the genomic response to therapy.

Read results of the BEAUTY study.

Based on the findings to-date from BEAUTY, clinicians are personalizing therapy to help ensure that women with breast cancer resistant to current therapy receive the right combination of drugs resulting in the highest chance of a cure. BEAUTY 2 participants will experience this approach and seamless health care in the treatment of breast cancer, during the crucial time between diagnosis and prior to surgery.

The PROMISE study will use participants' biopsies of metastatic breast cancer to obtain detailed information regarding the genetic makeup of the tumor as well as the host (germline) genome, with the goal of developing personalized treatment approaches to improve patient outcomes. Endocrine resistance is common in breast cancer patients, and while the drug palbociclib in combination with endocrine therapy has provided substantial improvements in progression free survival in women with metastatic breast cancer, that is not the case for all patients.

The PROMOTE study took an approach similar to the BEAUTY study, but for prostate cancer. The Pharmacogenomics Program hopes to elucidate the DNA sequences associated with response to therapy in order to identify new treatment options for patients with advanced prostate cancer that has resisted all conventional therapies.

This study also included groundbreaking work with mouse avatars, again to identify new and novel treatment options.

Patients with coronary artery disease often come into the emergency room requiring placement of one or more stents. In the TAILOR-PCI study, we are determining the specific DNA variant that might indicate whether the patient should receive the anticoagulant drug clopidogrel or an alternative drug, a question that has vexed cardiologists for years.

Safer and more effective treatment decisions will be systematically based upon genetic information.

Projects in Computational and Genomic Medicine, such as the joint NIH U54 and an NSFcenter grant project, blend the computational analysis, pharmacogenomics, and supercomputing expertise of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with the medical informatics and clinical practice expertise of Mayo Clinic. Researchers will develop new and innovative processes, such as artificial intelligence, that facilitate the translation of genomics and other high-dimensional data into clinical care.

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Mayo Clinic as well as our affiliate, the University of Chicago, which are leading institutions in these areas and already have strong ties to each other, have established the Center for Computational Biotechnology and Genomic Medicine (CCBGM), a collaborative environment that will improve the applicability, timeliness, efficiency, and accuracy of the computational infrastructure that will address pressing genome-based challenges.

The Mayo Clinic and Illinois Strategic Alliance for Technology-Based Healthcare was organized in 2010 to advance research, technology, and clinical treatment options in health care. It's a collaboration of The Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Initiative at Illinois (IHSI).

The Alliance is a framework for collaboration in individualized medicine, and involves innovative educational programs, integrated research activities and projects, and entrepreneurial modes to deploy and commercialize outcomes.

BD2K funds research and training activities that support the use of Big Data to advance biomedical research and discovery. This includes efforts in enhancing training, resource indexing, methods and tools development, and other data science-related areas. As part of this NIH award, Mayo Clinic is developing tools for standardizing research metadata.

Richard Weinshilboum, M.D., director, Pharmacogenomics Program

Precision medicine and pharmacogenomics

Personalized medicine holds the promise that treatments will one day be tailored to your genetic makeup.

Modern medications save millions of lives a year. Yet any one medication might not work for you, even if it works for other people. Or it might cause severe side effects for you but not for someone else.

Your age, lifestyle and health all influence your response to medications. But so do your genes. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how a person's unique genetic makeup (genome) influences his or her response to medications.

Precision medicine aims to customize health care, with decisions and treatments tailored to each individual in every way possible. Pharmacogenomics is part of precision medicine.

Although genomic testing is still a relatively new development in drug treatment, this field is rapidly expanding. Currently, more than 200 drugs have label information regarding pharmacogenomic biomarkers some measurable or identifiable genetic information that can be used to individualize the use of a drug.

Each gene provides the blueprint for the production of a certain protein in the body. A particular protein may have an important role in drug treatment for one of several reasons, including the following:

When researchers compare the genomes of people taking the same drug, they may discover that a set of people who share a certain genetic variation also share a common treatment response, such as:

This kind of treatment information is currently used to improve the selection and dosage of drugs to treat a wide range of conditions, including cardiovascular disease, lung disease, HIV infection, cancer, arthritis, high cholesterol and depression.

In cancer treatments, there are two genomes that may influence prescribing decisions the genome of the person with cancer (the germline genome) and the genome of the cancerous (malignant) tumor (the somatic genome).

There are many causes of cancer, but most cancers are associated with damaged DNA that allows cells to grow unchecked. The "incorrect" genetic material of the unchecked growth the malignant tumor is really a separate genome that may provide clues for treatment.

One example is thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) testing for people who are candidates for thiopurine drug therapy. Thiopurine drugs are used to treat some autoimmune disorders, including Crohn's disease and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as some types of cancer, such as childhood leukemia.

The TPMT enzyme helps break down thiopurine drugs. People who are TPMT deficient don't break down and clear out these drugs quickly enough. As a result, the drug concentration in the body is too high and increases the risk of side effects, such as damage to the bone marrow (hematopoietic toxicity).

Genetic testing can identify people with TPMT deficiency so that their doctors can take steps to reduce the risk of serious side effects by prescribing lower than usual doses of thiopurine drugs or by using other drugs instead.

Although pharmacogenomics has great promise and has made important strides in recent years, it's still in its early stages. Clinical trials are needed not only to identify links between genes and treatment outcomes but also to confirm initial findings, clarify the meaning of these associations and translate them into prescribing guidelines.

Nonetheless, progress in this field points toward a time when pharmacogenomics will be part of routine medical care at least for some drugs.
