The safety of COVID-19 pharmacotherapy is a relevant issue, first of all, because of the current lack of experience with using particular medicinal products and with off-label prescribing. The aim of the study was to analyse information on potential adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and their predictors in etiology- and pathogenesis-oriented COVID-19 therapy. According to literature data, the main clinically significant risk factors for COVID-19 patients to develop an ADR are the duration of their hospital stay, combined use of antivirals, polypharmacy, and their history of drug allergies. The most common adverse reactions to antivirals, to virus-neutralising antibodies, and to human anti-COVID-19 immunoglobulin and convalescent plasma are, respectively, gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary disorders;gastrointestinal disorders, neurological disorders, and allergic reactions;and transfusion reactions (fever, chills, etc.). For pathogenesis-oriented therapy with systemic glucocorticosteroids, the most characteristic ADR is hyperglycaemia. Janus kinase inhibitors and interleukin inhibitors are most often associated with gastrointestinal disorders and hypertransaminasemia;neutropenia is also characteristic of a number of interleukin inhibitors. Haemostatic adverse reactions to anticoagulants depend on the patient's dosing regimen and condition. Drug-drug interactions are a common problem in COVID-19 treatment, with the combination of nirmatrelvir and ritonavir showing the largest number of significant interactions attributed to their pharmacokinetics. Currently, there is data on the role of pharmacogenetic biomarkers in the safety and clinical outcomes of COVID-19 therapy. Thus, to improve the safety of COVID-19 therapy, an integrated approach is needed that will take into account both the clinical, demographic, and pharmacogenetic predictors of ADRs and the risk of drug-drug interactions.Copyright © 2023 Safety and Risk of Pharmacotherapy.

The aim of the study was to assess the association of polymorphic variants CYP3A5*3 6986 A>G rs776746 and CYP3A4*22 rs35599367 C>T with the safety parameters of remdesivir therapy in patients with COVID-19. Material and methods. The study included 156 patients admitted to the City Clinical Hospital No. 15 of the Moscow Health Department with COVID-19 diagnosis, who received remdesivir as an antiviral drug. The frequency of adverse reactions (bradycardia, dyspeptic disorders), as well as various laboratory parameters (ALT, AST, creatinine, ferritin, interleukin-6, and d-dimer levels) were compared between the carriers of wild-type and polymorphic variants of the studied genes. Results. Carriers of CYP3A5*3 polymorphic variants (GA+AA) had higher ALT levels after the treatment with remdesivir than carriers of the wild variant (GG). When comparing the level of interleukin-6 after therapy with remdesivir, carriers of the polymorphic variant of the CYP3A4*22 (CT) gene had a significantly higher level of this cytokine. Conclusion. An association between the carriage of polymorphic variants of CYP3A5*3 and an increase in the level of liver enzymes was found. Polymorphic variants of CYP3A4*22 were associated with higher levels of interleukin-6. Additional pharmacogenetic studies are required to assess the possibilities of personalizing antiviral therapy for COVID-19.Copyright © Team of Authors, 2022.

Introduction. An outbreak of novel COVID-19 infection has become a real challenge for the entire human society, and first of all for the healthcare services. The development of new drugs is a complex and lengthy process. At the beginning of the pandemic, it forced an intensive study of well-known drugs for the therapy. Remdesivir was first investigated as a potential treatment for Ebola virus. After beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, in vitro evaluations demonstrated its activity against SARS-CoV-2. Subsequent clinical studies showed the efficacy of remdesivir in shortening the time to recovery. Aim. To evaluate the effect of the carriage of polymorphic alleles of the CES1 gene (A > C, rs2244613) on the safety profile of remdesivir therapy. Materials and methods. A total of 154 patients hospitalized with coronavirus infection were included in the study. All patients received remdesivir as etiotropic therapy in the standard regimen: 200 mg on the first day followed by 100 mg daily for 5-10 days. In the course of observations, clinical and laboratory signs of adverse events were reported. Venous blood samples were collected from each patient for pharmacogenetic studies. Genotyping was performed using the real-time polymerase chain reaction technique. Statistical analysis: вata were analysed by using IBM SPSS Statistics, Version 23.0. Results. There were no significant associations of carriage of various CES1 variants with the frequency of adverse reactions (bradycardia, nausea, vomiting) and laboratory markers of adverse events (ALT, AST, creatinine levels). Conclusion. In our study, no association was found between the carriage of CES1 gene polymorphisms and the safety parameters of remdesivir in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Further research into the possibilities of personalizing COVID-19 therapy through pharmacogenetic testing is needed. © 2022, Remedium Group Ltd. All rights reserved.

The correlation between the risk of death from COVID-19 and the patient's ethnogeographic origin has been previously detected. LZTFL1 gene was identified as a potential marker of a two times higher risk of severe COVID-19. The study was aimed to assess spatial variation in the LZTFL1 SNP markers in indigenous populations of Russia and the world. Spatial variation in the LZTFL1 polymorphic markers was analyzed in 28 metapopulations (97 ethnic groups) of North Eurasia (n = 1980) and 34 world's metapopulations (n = 3637) by bioinformatics, statistical and cartographic methods. In North Eurasia, the major geographic variation vectors, North-South and West-East, are generally in line with the Caucasoid-Mongoloid anthropological vector. Global variation also corresponds to anthropological features: each cluster of indigenous populations includes only those from the place where it originates: Africa, Asia, or America. Indo-European cluster integrates Caucasoid populations of Europe and Asia. All four clusters of the world's indigenous population are separated from each other. The huge genetic diversity of Russia peoples and neighboring countries forms a bridge between three continents: Europe, Asia and America. Cartographic atlas for spatial variation in 11 LZTFL1 markers in the populations has been created. The following major patterns have been revealed: a) the world's extrema fall on the indigenous populations of Africa and America;2) Eurasia constitutes a transition zone between these two extrema, but has its own patterns and shows enormous scale of variation shows enormous variation on a global scale;3) the genetic landscape of Russia tends to be seamlessly integrated into the Eurasian landscape.

The review traces the evolution of the section on the use of antibacterial drugs in the temporary guidelines of the Ministry of Health for the treatment of a new coronavirus infection. Diagnostic approaches that play an important role in deciding on the need and duration of antibacterial therapy are presented. Routine use of fluoroquinolones should be restricted due to the adverse safety spectrum. According to existing data, the tactic of short courses of antibacterial therapy for community-acquired pneumonia are not inferior in effectiveness to longer courses. Unjustified prescribing of antibiotics increases the cost of medical care, promotes the selection of resistant pathogens and leads to adverse side effects. Timely updating of clinical recommendations, implementation of programs to control the appointment of antibacterial agents in medical organizations and strengthening the role of the clinical pharmacology service can reduce these adverse events.
