Pharmacogenomics (PGx) can lead to better overall quality of care by making sure that medications are prescribed with the specific individual in mind, rather than guessing what may work best under the ...

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) involves the study of patients’ unique genes to predict their individual response to drugs. 1,3 In assessments of the 12 most important pharmacogenes, at least 1 clinically ...

Despite many advances in genomic studies of antiretrovirals, the clinical application of pharmacogenomics remains in its infancy. This is mainly due to the fact that very few clear relationships ...

New technologies emerging from the Human Genome Project and the rapidly expanding direct-to-consumer DNA testing have provided a challenging environment for the entry of pharmacogenomics into clinical ...

Clinical trials offer a slew of benefits: optimal dosage ranges, identified potential side effects, and efficacy data. If approved by the FDA, clinicians leverage the insights from Phase III trials to ...
