1 Genetic Testing Applications to Patient Care Roy E. Smith, MD Addiction Medicine Disclosure Neither I nor any member of my immediate family has a financial relationship or interest with any proprietary entity producing health care goods or services related to the content of this CME activity. My content will include discussion/ reference to commercial products or services. I do not intend to discuss unapproved/ investigational use of commercial products or services. 1 2 Name Commercial Interests Genetic Testing Roy E Smith, MD September 2015 Relevant Financial Relationships: What Was Received Relevant Financial Relationships: For What Role Roy Smith MD No None None None No Relevant Financial Relationships with Any Commercial Interests Learning Objectives Discuss in general what this available genetic testing is and what its not. Demonstrate examples of the laboratory reports and the information contained in them Demonstrate how this newer laboratory testing is used to make clinical decisions Discuss some of the studies and literature behind the technology ( time permitting) 4 Key Points CYP450 liver enzymes Receptor characteristics Quality of reports depends on quality of information submitted Does not tell us that a medicine will or will not work. Helps tailor personalized medicine More rapidly treat depression / addiction 5 Clinical Use The Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) was created in 2009 to identify genetic druggene associations that have strong clinical evidence, and to publish guidelines that specify clinical actions based on those genetic test results

2 Know thy Patient It is more important to know what sort of person has a disease than to know what sort of disease a person has. -Hippocrates (460 BC 370 BC) Know thy Terminology Pharmacogenomics The general study of all genes that determine drug behavior including genes involved in: Ø How our body interacts with drugs (pharmacokinetics) Ø How drugs interact with our body (pharmacodynamics) Pharmacogenetics A subset of pharmacogenomics The study of inherited differences (variation) in drug response and metabolism Terms are used interchangeably Promise of Genomic Medicine Brief History of Pharmacogenetics BEFORE: Trial and error, One-dose-fits all AFTER: Personalized medicine (from genotype to phenotype) Ethnicity associated with differences in metabolic traits 1 NIH funds pharmacogenetics research 2 ~3000 genetic tests (and counting!) commercially available 5 No response Full response Partial response Toxicity Variations in adverse effects attributed to enzyme deficiencies 1 Effects of CYP450 polymorphism appear in literature 1 First genetic test is approved 4 DRUG A 100 mg DRUG A 500 mg DRUG A 10 mg Full human genome is mapped 3 ~50% respond 100% respond h#p:// 1.

3 Dopamine and Addiction Addiction Changes the Brain But So Does Recovery Addiction is All About the Dopamine - Nora Volkow, Director, National Institute on Drug Abuse Most drugs of abuse activate the dopaminergic system directly or indirectly Dopamine is involved in mediating positive (pleasurable) acute effects of many drugs as well as reinforcing behaviors leading to addiction Simon LH, Simon HLT.

Volkow, N.D., et al Journal of Neuroscience 21: Inc. Heritability Studies FINDINGS FROM STUDIES Studies evaluating addiction heritability typically involve analysis of families or twin studies These classical approaches examine co-occurrence or comorbidity of addictive traits in monozygotic vs dizygotic twins, reared together or apart, and in analogous family studies with other sorts of biological relatives These studies have provided solid evidence of genetic influence on addictions Twin studies specifically have demonstrated significant genetic impact on dependence of alcohol 1, cannabis 2, cocaine 3, nicotine 4 and polysubstance dependence 5, Millennium Laboratories, Inc Dick et al 2006 Ann Clin Psychiatry 18: Agrawal 2006 Addic8on 101, Agrawal et al (2004) American Journal of Medical Gene8cs Part B (Neuropsychiatric Gene8cs) 129B: Swan et al (1996) Journal of Substance Abuse 8: Kendler et al (2007) Arch Gen Psychiatry 64: Kendler et al (2006) Psychol Med. 36: Millennium Laboratories, Inc.
