Personalized pharmacogenomics

13th International Conference on Laboratory Medicine & Pathology

Keynote: Diagn Pathol Open

Abstract
GatorSeq Pharm is a pharmacogenomic gene assay we developed that predicts how patients will respond to a specific drug. The test determines the genotype/allelotype of each patient and correlates the results with the expected drug response based on published data and Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium recommendations. Personalized drug therapy can then be based on the individual�s genetic makeup which accounts for differences in drug absorption, metabolism, and efficiency. Such genetic differences may explain why one drug works well for one person, but the same drug causes severe adverse effects in other individuals. The test was validated in a clinical CLIA-approved laboratory to genotype 11 most significant pharmacogenomic genes. The test results provides the ordering physician with actionable relevant data and recommendations to individualize patient care allowing them to make insightful treatment decisions.
