3 Pharmacogenetics, 1990

4 Pharmacogenomic Journals, 2006

5 SNP Variability in The Human Genome December 2005 2.85 billion base pairs ~22,000 genes 1.7% of the genome codes for protein 3.3% of the genome is as conserved as the 1.7% that codes for protein On average 1 SNP/1.2kb 10 - 15 million SNPs that occur at > 1% frequency ~450,000 SNPs in MCS (Multiply Conserved Regions)

6 SNP Variability In Exons ~150,000 SNPs in known exons 48,451 non-synonymous SNPs 1113 introduce a stop codon 104 disrupt an existing STOP

7 Hierarchy of Pharmacogenetic Information from Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs)

8 Multiple Copies of human DNA can result in significant inter-individual variability 3,654 autosomal segmental regions, 800 at a frequency of at least 3%. In 95 individuals analyzed, the two most diverse genomes differed by at least 9 Mb in size or varied by at least 266 loci in content. 14 copied regions harbor 21 of the known human microRNAs, raising the possibility of the contribution of microRNAs to phenotypic diversity in humans. i.e. We are NOT 99 % the Same Am J Hum Genet. 2007 Jan;80(1):91-104.

9 Why Pharmacogenomics? To divine mechanism To predict therapeutic response

10 Current Clinical Ability to Predict Response Clinical Value of a Pharmacogenetic Test Pharmacogenetic Principle 1: Value Decreases when Current Predictive Ability is High Meyer UA and Flockhart DA, 2005 Azathioprine/TPMT β-blockade/β Receptor Cancer Chemotherapy Antidepressants/5HTR

11 Pharmacogenomic Methods Candidate gene approach Pathway (multiple candidate gene) approach Whole genome approach Combinations of the above

12 Drug Response Pathways can Involve many Candidate Genes www.pharmgkb.org

13 Methods in Pharmacogenetics Population distribution analysis with Normit plots using a valid probe to detect phenotypic polymorphism (> 1% of population) Identification of gene and variants Family and twin studies to confirm genetic characteristics (dominant, recessive, Mendelian, maternal etc.) Development of a genetic test for DNA variants Correlation between genotype and phenotype Application in Clinical Practice

14 Polymorphic Distribution Antimode

15 The Value of Normit Distribution Plots: Population Distribution of CYP2C19 phenotype Flockhart et al: Clin Pharmacol Ther 1995;57:662-669

16 Skewed Distribution

17 Example 1 of a Skewed Distribution: Heterogeneity in response to Inhaled Corticosteroids Weiss ST et al. Hum Molec Genetics 2004; 13:1353-1359

18 Using the extremes of a phenotypic distribution as a strategy to identify pharmacogenetic predictors Example: Iressa™ and the EGF receptor

19 EGFR mutations in tumors that are sensitive or insensitive to kinase inhibitors. Minna JD et al. Science 2004;304:1458-1461 All activating variants are in exon 9 and code for 4 specific αα changes

20 EGF Receptor Variant predicts Iressa™ Response : The “oncogene addiction model”

21 Lessons Germline genetic variation matters, but so do somatic mutations in tumors Extremes of phenotype are often viewed as “discardable data”, but outliers should be viewed as important research stimuli Patients who are “outliers” matter

22 Genetics and Drug Absorption

23 Enterocyte GI Lumen ATP ADP P-gp Transport Passive Diffusion Digoxin Transport across the GI lumen 

24 Fig. 3. Correlation of the exon 26 SNP with MDR-1 expression. The MDR- phenotype (expression and activity) of 21 volunteers and patients was determined by Western blot analyses. The box plot shows the distribution of MDR-1 expression clustered according to the MDR-1 genotype at the relevant exon 26 SNP. The genotype-phenotype correlation has a significance of P = 0.056 (n = 21). P-Glycoprotein Pharmacogenetics : Effect of a “wobble” (no coding change) SNP in exon 26 Eichelbaum et al.

56 A whole genome approach can work:

57 Current Methods for genetic testing By phenotype: metabolic probe drug or Western blot By PCR with mutation-specific endonuclease By PCR and allele-specific hybrization By oligonucleotide chip hybridization By laser lithography - guided oligonucleotide chip hybridization. By rapid throughput pyrosequencing Taqman probe screening Whole genome chips Custom chips Koch WH. Technology platforms for pharmacogenomic diagnostic assays.

61 Estimated cost to the patient of Genetic Tests in Clinical Practice By simple PCR for one mutation: ~$10 For 50 mutations: ~$150 By Chip for ~ 20 mutations: ~ $70 By Chip for 100 mutations: ~ $250

62 Ethical, legal and policy issues within pharmacogenetics Risk of Loss of Patient Confidentiality –Need for anonymized DNA storage systems Risk that existing patents will stifle progress –Need for careful interpration of Bayh-Dole Untangling the relationship between genetics and self-described race and ethnicity

63 Role Models for Pharmacogenetics Concorde? Nuclear Power? The Longitude Problem?

64 Clinical Pharmacogenetics Summary A good phenotyping probe is critical Genetic tests need validation just as any other tests A potent inhibitor can mimick a genetic polymorphism Not all genetic polymorphisms have a phenotypic correlate, or clinical effect The clinical relevance of genetic polymorphisms is greatest with drugs of narrow therapeutic range, but not confined to them The cost of genetic testing is not likely to be limiting

65 Medication History: AVOID Mistakes Allergies? : Is there any medicine that we should not give you for any reason? Vitamins and Herbs? Old drugs? …..as well as current Interactions? Dependence? Mendel: Family Hx of benefits or problems with any drugs?
