RESUMEN
Specific selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) metabolism is strongly influenced by two pharmacogenes, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19. However, the effectiveness of prospectively using pharmacogenetic variants to select or dose SSRIs for depression is uncertain in routine clinical practice. The objective of this prospective, multicenter, pragmatic randomized controlled trial is to determine the effectiveness of genotype-guided selection and dosing of antidepressants on control of depression in participants who are 8 years or older with ≥3 months of depressive symptoms who require new or revised therapy. Those randomized to the intervention arm undergo pharmacogenetic testing at baseline and receive a pharmacy consult and/or automated clinical decision support intervention based on an actionable phenotype, while those randomized to the control arm have pharmacogenetic testing at the end of 6-months. In both groups, depression and drug tolerability outcomes are assessed at baseline, 1 month, 3 months (primary), and 6 months. The primary end point is defined by change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Depression score assessed at 3 months versus baseline. Secondary end points include change inpatient health questionnaire (PHQ-8) measure of depression severity, remission rates defined by PROMIS score < 16, medication adherence, and medication side effects. The primary analysis will compare the PROMIS score difference between trial arms among those with an actionable CYP2D6 or CYP2C19 genetic result or a CYP2D6 drug-drug interaction. The trial has completed accrual of 1461 participants, of which 562 were found to have an actionable phenotype to date, and follow-up will be complete in April of 2024.

Background: Hypertension (HTN) involves genetic variability in the renin-angiotensin system and influences antihypertensive response. We previously reported that angiotensinogen (AGT) messenger RNA (mRNA) is endogenously bound by miR-122-5p and rs699 A > G decreases reporter mRNA in the microRNA functional-assay PASSPORT-seq. The AGT promoter variant rs5051 C > T is in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with rs699 A > G and increases AGT transcription. The independent effect of these variants is understudied due to their LD therefore we aimed to test the hypothesis that increased AGT by rs5051 C > T counterbalances AGT decreased by rs699 A > G, and when these variants occur independently, it translates to HTN-related phenotypes. Methods: We used in silico, in vitro, in vivo, and retrospective models to test this hypothesis. Results: In silico, rs699 A > G is predicted to increase miR-122-5p binding affinity by 3%. Mir-eCLIP results show rs699 is 40-45 nucleotides from the strongest microRNA-binding site in the AGT mRNA. Unexpectedly, rs699 A > G increases AGT mRNA in an AGT-plasmid-cDNA HepG2 expression model. Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) and UK Biobank analyses demonstrate liver AGT expression and HTN phenotypes are not different when rs699 A > G occurs independently from rs5051 C > T. However, GTEx and the in vitro experiments suggest rs699 A > G confers cell-type-specific effects on AGT mRNA abundance, and suggest paracrine renal renin-angiotensin-system perturbations could mediate the rs699 A > G associations with HTN. Conclusions: We found that rs5051 C > T and rs699 A > G significantly associate with systolic blood pressure in Black participants in the UK Biobank, demonstrating a fourfold larger effect than in White participants. Further studies are warranted to determine if altered antihypertensive response in Black individuals might be due to rs5051 C > T or rs699 A > G. Studies like this will help clinicians move beyond the use of race as a surrogate for genotype.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Aromatase inhibitor (AI)-associated musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS) are common and frequently lead to AI discontinuation. SNPs in candidate genes have been associated with AIMSS and AI discontinuation. E1Z11 is a prospective cohort study designed to validate the association between 10 SNPs and AI discontinuation due to AIMSS. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Postmenopausal women with stage I to III hormone receptor-positive breast cancer received anastrozole 1 mg daily and completed patient-reported outcome measures to assess AIMSS (Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire) at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. We estimated that 40% of participants would develop AIMSS and 25% would discontinue AI treatment within 12 months. Enrollment of 1,000 women with a fixed number per racial stratum provided 80% power to detect an effect size of 1.5 to 4. SNPs were found in ESR1 (rs2234693, rs2347868, and rs9340835), CYP19A1 (rs1062033 and rs4646), TCL1A (rs11849538, rs2369049, rs7158782, and rs7159713), and HTR2A (rs2296972). RESULTS: Of the 970 evaluable women, 43% developed AIMSS and 12% discontinued AI therapy within 12 months. Although more Black and Asian women developed AIMSS than White women (49% vs. 39%, P = 0.017; 50% vs. 39%, P = 0.004, respectively), the AI discontinuation rates were similar across groups. None of the SNPs were significantly associated with AIMSS or AI discontinuation in the overall population or in distinct cohorts. The OR for rs2296972 (HTR2A) approached significance for developing AIMSS. CONCLUSIONS: We were unable to prospectively validate candidate SNPs previously associated with AI discontinuation due to AIMSS. Future analyses will explore additional genetic markers, patient-reported outcome predictors of AIMSS, and differences by race.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) protects red blood cells against oxidative damage through regeneration of NADPH. Individuals with G6PD polymorphisms (variants) that produce an impaired G6PD enzyme are usually asymptomatic, but at risk of hemolytic anemia from oxidative stressors, including certain drugs and foods. Prevention of G6PD deficiency-related hemolytic anemia is achievable through G6PD genetic testing or whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to identify affected individuals who should avoid hemolytic triggers. However, accurately predicting the clinical consequence of G6PD variants is limited by over 800 G6PD variants which remain of uncertain significance. There also remains significant variability in which deficiency-causing variants are included in pharmacogenomic testing arrays across institutions: many panels only include c.202G>A, even though dozens of other variants can also cause G6PD deficiency. Here, we seek to improve G6PD genotype interpretation using data available in the All of Us Research Program and using a yeast functional assay. We confirm that G6PD coding variants are the main contributor to decreased G6PD activity, and that 13% of individuals in the All of Us data with deficiency-causing variants would be missed if only the c.202G>A variant were tested for. We expand clinical interpretation for G6PD variants of uncertain significance; reporting that c.595A>G, known as G6PD Dagua or G6PD Açores, and the newly identified variant c.430C>G, reduce activity sufficiently to lead to G6PD deficiency. We also provide evidence that five missense variants of uncertain significance are unlikely to lead to G6PD deficiency, since they were seen in hemi- or homozygous individuals without a reduction in G6PD activity. We also applied the new WHO guidelines and were able to classify two synonymous variants as WHO class C. We anticipate these results will improve the accuracy, and prompt increased use, of G6PD genetic tests through a more complete clinical interpretation of G6PD variants. As the All of Us data increases from 245,000 to 1 million participants, and additional functional assays are carried out, we expect this research to serve as a template to enable complete characterization of G6PD deficiency genotypes. With an increased number of interpreted variants, genetic testing of G6PD will be more informative for preemptively identifying individuals at risk for drug- or food-induced hemolytic anemia.
RESUMEN
Adverse drug events (ADEs) account for a significant mortality, morbidity, and cost burden. Pharmacogenetic testing has the potential to reduce ADEs and inefficacy. The objective of this INGENIOUS trial (NCT02297126) analysis was to determine whether conducting and reporting pharmacogenetic panel testing impacts ADE frequency. The trial was a pragmatic, randomized controlled clinical trial, adapted as a propensity matched analysis in individuals (N = 2612) receiving a new prescription for one or more of 26 pharmacogenetic-actionable drugs across a community safety-net and academic health system. The intervention was a pharmacogenetic testing panel for 26 drugs with dosage and selection recommendations returned to the health record. The primary outcome was occurrence of ADEs within 1 year, according to modified Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). In the propensity-matched analysis, 16.1% of individuals experienced any ADE within 1-year. Serious ADEs (CTCAE level ≥ 3) occurred in 3.2% of individuals. When combining all 26 drugs, no significant difference was observed between the pharmacogenetic testing and control arms for any ADE (Odds ratio 0.96, 95% CI: 0.78-1.18), serious ADEs (OR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.58-1.40), or mortality (OR: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.28-1.21). However, sub-group analyses revealed a reduction in serious ADEs and death in individuals who underwent pharmacogenotyping for aripiprazole and serotonin or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (OR 0.34, 95% CI: 0.12-0.85). In conclusion, no change in overall ADEs was observed after pharmacogenetic testing. However, limitations incurred during INGENIOUS likely affected the results. Future studies may consider preemptive, rather than reactive, pharmacogenetic panel testing.

OBJECTIVE: Previous research has not objectively assessed patients' comprehension of their pharmacogenomic test results. In this study we assessed understanding of patients who had undergone cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) pharmacogenomic testing. METHODS: 31 semi-structured interviews with patients who underwent CYP2C19 testing after cardiac catheterization and had been sent a brochure, letter, and wallet card explaining their results. Answers to Likert and binary questions were summarized with descriptive statistics. Qualitative data were analyzed using a grounded theory approach, with particular focus on categorization. RESULTS: No participants knew the name of the gene tested or their metabolizer status. Seven participants (23%) knew whether the testing identified any medications that would have lower effectiveness or increased adverse effects for them at standard doses ("Adequate Understanding"). Four participants (13%) read their results from the letter or wallet card they received but had no independent understanding ("Reliant on Written Materials"). Ten participants remembered receiving the written materials (32%). CONCLUSION: A majority of participants who had undergone CYP2C19 PGx testing did not understand their results at even a minimal level and would be unable to communicate them to future providers. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Further research is necessary to improve patient understanding of PGx testing and their results, potentially through improving patient-provider communication.

Background: Next-generation sequencing (NGS), including whole genome sequencing (WGS) and whole exome sequencing (WES), is increasingly being used for clinic care. While NGS data have the potential to be repurposed to support clinical pharmacogenomics (PGx), current computational approaches have not been widely validated using clinical data. In this study, we assessed the accuracy of the Aldy computational method to extract PGx genotypes from WGS and WES data for 14 and 13 major pharmacogenes, respectively. Methods: Germline DNA was isolated from whole blood samples collected for 264 patients seen at our institutional molecular solid tumor board. DNA was used for panel-based genotyping within our institutional Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments- (CLIA-) certified PGx laboratory. DNA was also sent to other CLIA-certified commercial laboratories for clinical WGS or WES. Aldy v3.3 and v4.4 were used to extract PGx genotypes from these NGS data, and results were compared to the panel-based genotyping reference standard that contained 45 star allele-defining variants within CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP4F2, DPYD, G6PD, NUDT15, SLCO1B1, TPMT, and VKORC1. Results: Mean WGS read depth was >30x for all variant regions except for G6PD (average read depth was 29 reads), and mean WES read depth was >30x for all variant regions. For 94 patients with WGS, Aldy v3.3 diplotype calls were concordant with those from the genotyping reference standard in 99.5% of cases when excluding diplotypes with additional major star alleles not tested by targeted genotyping, ambiguous phasing, and CYP2D6 hybrid alleles. Aldy v3.3 identified 15 additional clinically actionable star alleles not covered by genotyping within CYP2B6, CYP2C19, DPYD, SLCO1B1, and NUDT15. Within the WGS cohort, Aldy v4.4 diplotype calls were concordant with those from genotyping in 99.7% of cases. When excluding patients with CYP2D6 copy number variation, all Aldy v4.4 diplotype calls except for one CYP3A4 diplotype call were concordant with genotyping for 161 patients in the WES cohort. Conclusion: Aldy v3.3 and v4.4 called diplotypes for major pharmacogenes from clinical WES and WGS data with >99% accuracy. These findings support the use of Aldy to repurpose clinical NGS data to inform clinical PGx.

Hypertension (HTN) involves genetic variability in the renin-angiotensin system and characterizing this variability will help advance precision antihypertensive treatments. We previously reported that angiotensinogen (AGT) mRNA is endogenously bound by mir-122-5p and that rs699 A>G significantly decreases reporter mRNA in the functional mirSNP assay PASSPORT-seq. The AGT promoter variant rs5051 C>T is in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with rs699 A>G and increases AGT transcription. We hypothesized that the increased AGT by rs5051 C>T counterbalances AGT decrease by rs699 A>G, and when these variants occur independently, would translate to HTN-related phenotypes. The independent effect of each of these variants is understudied due to their LD, therefore, we used in silico, in vitro, in vivo, and retrospective clinical and biobank analyses to assess HTN and AGT expression phenotypes where rs699 A>G occurs independently from rs5051 C>T. In silico, rs699 A>G is predicted to increase mir-122-5p binding strength by 3%. Mir-eCLIP assay results show that rs699 is 40-45 nucleotides from the strongest microRNA binding site in the AGT mRNA. Unexpectedly, rs699 A>G increases AGT mRNA in a plasmid cDNA HepG2 expression model. GTEx and UK Biobank analyses demonstrate that liver AGT expression and HTN phenotypes were not different when rs699 A>G occurs independently from rs5051 C>T, allowing us to reject the original hypothesis. However, both GTEx and our in vitro experiments suggest rs699 A>G confers cell-type specific effects on AGT mRNA abundance. We found that rs5051 C>T and rs699 A>G significantly associate with systolic blood pressure in Black participants in the UK Biobank, demonstrating a 4-fold larger effect than in White participants. Further studies are warranted to determine if the altered antihypertensive response in Black individuals might be due to rs5051 C>T or rs699 A>G. Studies like this will help clinicians move beyond the use of race as a surrogate for genotype.
RESUMEN
Tacrolimus is a calcineurin inhibitor with a narrow therapeutic range and is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes CYP3A4 and CYP3A5. The Clinical Pharmacogenetic Implementation Consortium published evidence-based guidelines for CYP3A5 normal/intermediate metabolizers prescribed tacrolimus, yet few transplant centers have implemented routine testing. The objective of this study was to implement preemptive CYP3A genotyping into clinical practice in a large kidney transplant program and to evaluate workflow feasibility, potential clinical benefit, and reimbursement to identify barriers and determine sustainability. Preemptive pharmacogenetic testing for CYP3A5 and CYP3A4 was implemented in all patients listed for a kidney transplant as part of standard clinical care. Genotyping was performed at the listing appointment, results were reported as discrete data in the electronic medical record, and education and clinical decision support alerts were developed to provide pharmacogenetic-recommended tacrolimus dosing. During this initial phase, all patients were administered standard tacrolimus dosing, and clinical and reimbursement outcomes were collected. Greater than 99.5% of genotyping claims were reimbursed by third-party payers. CYP3A5 normal/intermediate metabolizers had significantly fewer tacrolimus trough concentrations within the target range and a significantly longer time to their first therapeutic trough compared to poor metabolizers. The challenge of tacrolimus dosing is magnified in the African American population. The US Food and Drug Administration drug label recommends increased starting doses in African ancestry, yet only ≈66% of African Americans in our cohort were normal/intermediate metabolizers who required higher doses. Routine CYP3A5 genotyping may overcome this issue by using genotype over race as a more accurate predictor of drug response.

Polypharmacy is common in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and previous reports suggest that NAFLD is associated with altered drug disposition. This study aims to determine if patients with NAFLD are at risk for altered drug response by characterizing changes in hepatic mRNA expression of genes mediating drug disposition (pharmacogenes) across the histological NAFLD severity spectrum. We utilize RNA-seq for 93 liver biopsies with histologically staged NAFLD Activity Score (NAS), fibrosis stage, and steatohepatitis (NASH). We identify 37 significant pharmacogene-NAFLD severity associations including CYP2C19 downregulation. We chose to validate CYP2C19 due to its actionability in drug prescribing. Meta-analysis of 16 independent studies demonstrate that CYP2C19 is significantly downregulated to 46% in NASH, to 58% in high NAS, and to 43% in severe fibrosis. Our data demonstrate the downregulation of CYP2C19 in NAFLD which supports developing personalized medicine approaches for drugs sensitive to metabolism by the CYP2C19 enzyme.

The fields of genetics and genomics have greatly expanded across medicine through the development of new technologies that have revealed genetic contributions to a wide array of traits and diseases. Thus, the development of widely available educational resources for all healthcare providers is essential to ensure the timely and appropriate utilization of genetics and genomics patient care. In 2020, the National Human Genome Research Institute released a call for new proposals to develop accessible, sustainable online education for health providers. This paper describes the efforts of the six teams awarded to reach the goal of providing genetic and genomic training modules that are broadly available for busy clinicians.

BACKGROUND: Chemotherapeutic drug concentrations vary across different regions of tumors and this is thought to be involved in development of chemotherapy resistance. Insufficient drug delivery to some regions of the tumor may be due to spatial differences in expression of genes involved in the disposition, transport, and detoxification of drugs (pharmacogenes). Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the spatial expression of 286 pharmacogenes in six breast cancer tissues using the recently developed Visium spatial transcriptomics platform to (1) determine if these pharmacogenes are expressed heterogeneously across tumor tissue and (2) to determine which pharmacogenes have the most spatial expression heterogeneity. METHODS AND RESULTS: The spatial transcriptomics technology sequences the transcriptome of 55 um diameter barcoded sections (spots) across a tissue sample. We analyzed spatial gene expression profiles of four biobank-sourced breast tumor samples in addition to two breast tumor sample datasets from 10× Genomics. We define heterogeneity as the interquartile range of read counts. Collectively, we identified 8887 spots in tumor regions, 3814 in stroma, 44 in lymphocytes, and 116 in normal regions based on pathologist annotation of the tissues. We showed statistically significant differences in expression of pharmacogenes in tumor regions compared to surrounding non-tumor regions. We also observed that the most heterogeneously expressed genes within tumor regions were involved in reactive oxygen species (ROS) handling and detoxification mechanisms. GPX4, GSTP1, MGST3, SOD1, CYP4Z1, CYB5R3, GSTK1, and NAT1 showed the most heterogeneous expression within tumor regions. CONCLUSIONS: The heterogeneous expression of these pharmacogenes may have important implications for cancer therapy due to their ability to impact drug distribution and efficacy throughout the tumor. Our results suggest that chemoresistance caused by expression of GPX4, GSTP1, MGST3, and SOD1 may be intrinsic, not acquired, since the heterogeneity is not specific to chemotherapy-treated samples or cell type. Additionally, we identified candidate chemoresistance pharmacogenes that can be further tested through focused follow-up studies.

Black patients suffer worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) than White patients. Inequities in antiplatelet prescribing may contribute to this health disparity. We compared P2Y12 inhibitor prescribing by race following CYP2C19 genotyping to guide antiplatelet therapy selection after PCI. Patients from 9 sites that performed clinical CYP2C19 genotyping after PCI were included. Alternative therapy (e.g., prasugrel or ticagrelor) was recommended for CYP2C19 no-function allele carriers, in whom clopidogrel is predicted to be less effective. The primary outcome was choice of P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel vs. alternative therapy) based on genotype. Of 3,342 patients included, 2,448 (73%) were White, and 659 (20%) were Black. More Black than White patients had a no-function allele (34.3% vs. 29.7%, P = 0.024). At hospital discharge following PCI, 44.2% of Black and 44.0% of White no-function allele carriers were prescribed alternative therapy. At the time of the last follow-up within 12 months, numerically fewer Black (51.8%) than White (56.7%) no-function allele carriers were prescribed alternative therapy (P = 0.190). However, the difference was not significant after accounting for other factors associated with P2Y12 inhibitor selection (odds ratio 0.79, 95% confidence interval 0.58-1.08). Alternative therapy use did not differ between Black (14.3%) and White (16.7%) patients without a no-function allele (P = 0.232). Among real-world patients who received CYP2C19 testing after PCI, P2Y12 inhibitor prescribing rates did not differ between Black and White patients. Our data suggest an absence of racial disparity in genotype-guided antiplatelet prescribing among patients receiving CYP2C19 testing.

Background: Patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) are exposed to numerous drugs over their lifespan, and many of these drugs have Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) guidelines for personalized dosing. The authors' aim was to ascertain the number of drugs with CPIC guidelines prescribed to SCD patients. Materials & methods: A search of Indiana University Health affiliated hospitals' electronic medical record identified 957 patients with a diagnosis of SCD. Drugs or drug classes with CPIC actionable guidelines ordered as inpatient and outpatient prescriptions were collected from SCD patients. Results: During the 16-year period, 892 (93%) patients received at least one drug that could have been dosed according to CPIC guidelines. Conclusion: Preemptive pharmacogenetics testing should be considered in SCD patients in order to utilize these data throughout the patient's life.

Coadministration with acid-reducing agents (ARAs), including proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), histamine H2 -receptor antagonists (H2 blockers), and antacids has been demonstrated to reduce antiviral exposure and efficacy. Therefore, it is essential that US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug labels include recommendations to manage these drug-drug interactions (DDIs). This investigation analyzed information in FDA drug labels to manage DDIs between ARAs and antivirals approved from 1998 to 2019. To ascertain clinical adoption, we assessed whether FDA label recommendations were incorporated into current antiviral clinical practice guidelines. We identified 82 label recommendations for 43 antiviral approvals. Overall, 56.1% of recommendations were deemed clinically actionable, with the most common actionable management strategies being dose adjustment during coadministration (40.2%) and coadministration not recommended (9.8%). The sources informing DDI recommendations were clinical DDI studies (59.8%) and predictions of altered exposure (40.2%). Antivirals with low aqueous solubility were more likely to have label recommendations and were more commonly investigated using clinical DDI studies (P < 0.01). For recommendations informed by clinical DDI studies, changes in drug exposure were associated with actionable label recommendations (P < 0.01). The frequency of exposure changes in clinical DDI studies was similar across antiviral indications, but exposure changes were numerically higher for antacids (71.4%) relative to PPIs (42.9%) and H2 blockers (28.6%). Of DDI pairs identified within drug labels, 76.8% were included in guidelines, and recommended management strategies were concordant in 90.5% of cases. Our findings demonstrate that current regulatory oversight mostly (but not completely) results in actionable label recommendations to manage DDIs for high-risk antivirals.

Opioid prescribing for postoperative pain management is challenging because of inter-patient variability in opioid response and concern about opioid addiction. Tramadol, hydrocodone, and codeine depend on the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) enzyme for formation of highly potent metabolites. Individuals with reduced or absent CYP2D6 activity (i.e., intermediate metabolizers [IMs] or poor metabolizers [PMs], respectively) have lower concentrations of potent opioid metabolites and potentially inadequate pain control. The primary objective of this prospective, multicenter, randomized pragmatic trial is to determine the effect of postoperative CYP2D6-guided opioid prescribing on pain control and opioid usage. Up to 2020 participants, age ≥8 years, scheduled to undergo a surgical procedure will be enrolled and randomized to immediate pharmacogenetic testing with clinical decision support (CDS) for CYP2D6 phenotype-guided postoperative pain management (intervention arm) or delayed testing without CDS (control arm). CDS is provided through medical record alerts and/or a pharmacist consult note. For IMs and PM in the intervention arm, CDS includes recommendations to avoid hydrocodone, tramadol, and codeine. Patient-reported pain-related outcomes are collected 10 days and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. The primary outcome, a composite of pain intensity and opioid usage at 10 days postsurgery, will be compared in the subgroup of IMs and PMs in the intervention (n = 152) versus the control (n = 152) arm. Secondary end points include prescription pain medication misuse scores and opioid persistence at 6 months. This trial will provide data on the clinical utility of CYP2D6 phenotype-guided opioid selection for improving postoperative pain control and reducing opioid-related risks.

OBJECTIVE: Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are commonly used to treat hormone receptor positive (HR +) breast cancer. AI-induced musculoskeletal syndrome (AIMSS) is a common toxicity that causes AI treatment discontinuation. The objective of this genome-wide association study (GWAS) was to identify genetic variants associated with discontinuation of AI therapy due to AIMSS and attempt to replicate previously reported associations. METHODS: In the Exemestane and Letrozole Pharmacogenetics (ELPh) study, postmenopausal patients with HR + non-metastatic breast cancer were randomized to letrozole or exemestane. Genome-wide genotyping of germline DNA was conducted followed by imputation. Each imputed variant was tested for association with time-to-treatment discontinuation due to AIMSS using a Cox proportional hazards model assuming additive genetic effects and adjusting for age, baseline pain score, prior taxane treatment, and AI arm. Secondary analyses were conducted within each AI arm and analyses of candidate variants previously reported to be associated with AIMSS risk. RESULTS: Four hundred ELPh participants were included in the combined analysis. Two variants surpassed the genome-wide significance level in the primary analysis (p value < 5 × 10-8), an intronic variant (rs79048288) within CCDC148 (HR = 4.42, 95% CI: 2.67-7.33) and an intergenic variant (rs912571) upstream of PPP1R14C (HR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.20-0.47). In the secondary analysis, rs74418677, which is known to be associated with expression of SUPT20H, was significantly associated with discontinuation of letrozole therapy due to AIMSS (HR = 5.91, 95% CI: 3.16-11.06). We were able to replicate associations for candidate variants previously reported to be associated with AIMSS in this cohort, but were not able to replicate associations for any other variants previously reported in other patient cohorts. CONCLUSIONS: Our GWAS findings identify several candidate variants that may be associated with AIMSS risk from AI generally or letrozole specifically. Validation of these associations in independent cohorts is needed before translating these findings into clinical practice to improve treatment outcomes in patients with HR + breast cancer.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE: APOL1 risk alleles are associated with increased cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk. It is unknown whether knowledge of APOL1 risk status motivates patients and providers to attain recommended blood pressure (BP) targets to reduce cardiovascular disease. STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter, pragmatic, randomized controlled clinical trial. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: 6650 individuals with African ancestry and hypertension from 13 health systems. INTERVENTION: APOL1 genotyping with clinical decision support (CDS) results are returned to participants and providers immediately (intervention) or at 6 months (control). A subset of participants are re-randomized to pharmacogenomic testing for relevant antihypertensive medications (pharmacogenomic sub-study). CDS alerts encourage appropriate CKD screening and antihypertensive agent use. OUTCOMES: Blood pressure and surveys are assessed at baseline, 3 and 6 months. The primary outcome is change in systolic BP from enrollment to 3 months in individuals with two APOL1 risk alleles. Secondary outcomes include new diagnoses of CKD, systolic blood pressure at 6 months, diastolic BP, and survey results. The pharmacogenomic sub-study will evaluate the relationship of pharmacogenomic genotype and change in systolic BP between baseline and 3 months. RESULTS: To date, the trial has enrolled 3423 participants. CONCLUSIONS: The effect of patient and provider knowledge of APOL1 genotype on systolic blood pressure has not been well-studied. GUARDD-US addresses whether blood pressure improves when patients and providers have this information. GUARDD-US provides a CDS framework for primary care and specialty clinics to incorporate APOL1 genetic risk and pharmacogenomic prescribing in the electronic health record.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs integral in the regulation of gene expression. Analysis of circulating miRNA levels may identify patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) at risk for recurrent myocardial infarction (MI) after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). Subjects with CAD were selected from the GENCATH cardiac catheterization biobank. Subjects with recurrent MI after PCI were compared with those without recurrent MI during follow-up in the initial (n = 48) and replication cohort (n = 67). Next generation MiRNA sequencing was performed on plasma samples and whole blood samples fixed with PAXGENE tubes upon collection. Overall, 164 miRNAs derived from whole blood were differentially expressed in the replication cohort between subjects with and without recurrent MI events (p < 0.05), with 69 remaining significant after false-discovery rate (FDR) correction. None of the miRNAs in plasma was significantly different by FDR among subjects with and without MI. Overall, correlation between direction of effects between plasma and whole blood assays was variable, and only two miRNAs were concordant and significant in both. Associations of miRNA with vascular disease, MI, and thrombosis were further explored. MiRNA profiling has potential as the future biomarker for disease prognosis and treatment response marker in secondary treatment of patients with CAD after PCI. Whole blood may be the preferred sample source as compared to plasma.
