Building Capacity for Implementation Science in Precision Health and Society: Development of a Course for Professional and Graduate Students in Pharmacy
MC Roberts, J Personalized Medicine, September 14, 2022

Training in the field of implementation science is critical for future pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists to successfully implement precision health interventions in pharmacy practice. We developed an elective course for second- and third-year students at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy to develop foundational knowledge in implementation science with a focus on precision health implementation. The eight-week course used a flipped classroom format featuring lecture videos, suggested readings, quizzes, guest lectures from experts, case studies, and a group project.

The genetic landscape of major drug metabolizing cytochrome P450 genes—an updated analysis of population-scale sequencing data
Y Zhou et al, The PGX journal, September 6, 2022

Genes encoding cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) are extremely polymorphic and multiple CYP variants constitute clinically relevant biomarkers for the guidance of drug selection and dosing. We previously reported the distribution of the most relevant CYP alleles using population-scale sequencing data. Here, we update these findings by making use of the increasing wealth of data, incorporating whole exome and whole genome sequencing data from 141,614 unrelated individuals across 12 human populations.

Dutch pharmacogenetics working group guideline for the gene-drug interaction of ABCG2, HLA-B and Allopurinol, and MTHFR, folic acid and methotrexate
KH van der Pol et al, EJHG, September 2, 2022

This guideline describes the gene-drug interaction of ABCG2 with allopurinol, HLA-B with allopurinol, MTHFR with folic acid, and MTHFR with methotrexate, relevant for the treatment of gout, cancer, and rheumatoid arthritis. A systematic review was performed based on which pharmacotherapeutic recommendations were developed.

A Systematic Review of Polygenic Models for Predicting Drug Outcomes
A Siemens et al, J Per Med, August 29, 2022

The search uncovered 89 papers that incorporated pharmacogenetic variants in the development of polygenic models. It was found that the most common polygenic models were constructed for drug dosing predictions in anticoagulant therapies (n = 27). While nearly all studies found a significant association with their polygenic model and the investigated drug outcome (93.3%), less than half (47.2%) compared the performance of the polygenic model against clinical predictors, and even fewer (40.4%) sought to validate model predictions in an independent cohort.
