Q

Goals of Pharmacogenomics in ID

A

Ensure optimal dosing to achieve desired drug concentrations at the site of infection

Avoid drug toxicity due to supratherapeutic dosing

Q

Efavirenz - 2B6 -> 8-hydroxyefavirenz (inactive) -2B6-> 8,14 dihydroxyefavirenz (inactive)

Efavirenz -2B6-> 7-hydroxyefavirenz (inactive)

A

WITHOUT CYP2B6 or with CYP2B6 variant allele, Efavirenz will stay active

  • With Variant CYP2B6 516 G>T
  • Leads to increased EFV concentrations and CNS toxicity
  • EFV dose reductions may benefit patients with 516 G>T

Q

Normal Efavirenz symptoms

A

CNS Toxicity which leads to
Poor Quality of Life
Decreased Adherence
Treatment Discontinuation

Symptoms begins within 1 to 2 days after initiation and may resolve within 2 to 4 weeks of continued therapy.

16
Q

PPIs are METABOLIZED BY

A

CYP2C19

17
Q

Omeprazole/Esomeprazole is 90% CYP2C19 to

A

Inactive 5-hydroxy-omeprazole

18
Q

The mitochondrion contains its own circular dsDNA. mtDNA is solely present in ova, resulting in strict maternal inheritance. mtDNA contains 37 genes

  • 13 protein-encoding genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation
  • 24 genes involved in protein translation
    • 22 tRNA
    • 2 rRNA genes
  • MT-RNR for 12S rRNA*
A

MT-RNR1 1555A>G producees a mitochondrial 12s rRNA that is structurally similar to bacterial rRNA

19
Q

MT-RNR1 1555A>G variant + Aminoglycoside Exposure

A

Irreversible Ototoxicity

= Decrease mitochondrial protein synthesis, ATP production in the cochlea, and apoptosis

20
Q

With warfarin

A

Balance risk of thrombosis vs bleeding

21
Q

S-Warfarin inhibits

A

VKORC1 and uses CYP2C9 to inactivate metabolites

22
Q

CYP2C9 affects PK or PD

A

PK, metabolism of S-warfarin

23
Q

VKORC1 affects PK or PD

A

PD, warfarin target

24
Q

VKORC1 -1693G>A polymorphism

A

GA = reduced warfarin dose

AA greatly reduced warfarin dose (more sensitive)

25
Q

85-90% of Clopidogrel is converted to inactive acid metabolite. What P450 Cytochrome is used to convert clopidogrel to an active form?

A

CYP2C19

26
Q

If Clopidogrel Biotransformation and Platelet Inhibition Decreases and the patient has Loss of Function of Alleles

A

Risk of CV Events Increase

27
Q

Although a study proved that ticagrelor/prasugrel is noninferior to Clopidogrel in terms of thrombotic events, the two medication does

A

Lower bleeding risk

28
Q

If a patient is genotyped as an Intermediate Metabolizer or Poor Metabolizer (has any variant gene), they should be treated how?

A

Prasugrel 10 mg QD or Ticagrelor 90 mg BID

29
Q

Adverse of Effects of Statins

A

Myalgia
Myopathy
Rhabomyolysis

30
Q

Simvistatin relies on ________ for uptake of activated simvastatin

A

SLCO1B1

31
Q

If there is an variant on SLCO1B1

A

the adverse effects are at an increase

32
Q

For a poor metabolizerof SLCO1B1

A

Consider an alternative agent (pravastatin, rosuvastatin, fluvastatin)
