1 Genotyping The Patient Requiring Mental Health Medications: When Does It Make Sense? Charles F. Caley, PharmD, BCPP Clinical Professor UConn School of Pharmacy Storrs, CT I have NO actual or potential conflicts of interest in relation to this educational presentation. No Off-Label Discussions

2 Learning Objectives Discuss genomic variability in terms of psychotropic drug outcomes; Describe clinical pharmacogenomic tests that practitioners can use in support of clinical care; Understand the limitations of clinical pharmacogenomic testing as applied to the use of psychotropic medications. Self Assessment Genetic variability can result in differences in drug metabolism, drug distribution and drug action. Genotyping CYP2D6, 2C19 and 2C9 can help us identify which patients will be a responder to psychotropic medications. For patients with ADHD, genotyping a patient s serotonin transporter gene can help us identify who will respond to methylphenidate. Self Assessment For patients with depression, genotyping a patient s alpha-2a receptor gene can help us identify who will respond to an SSRI. A patient with a history of poor tolerability to several medications that are each metabolized by the same enzyme may be a reason to genotype that enzyme. The time has come for us to be genotyping most, if not all, our patients.

Test Report Date Signed: Gualberto Ruaño, M.D., Ph.D. Laboratory Director 1. The HILOmet System should be used only in conjunction with clinical presentation and other diagnostic data when making therapy decisions. A Patient s response to drug therapy depends on multiple non-genetic factors, including patient compliance with drug regimen, interactions with other medications, and diet. 2. The HILOmet System, including DNA extraction and DNA typing of cytochrome p450 genes, was performed by the Laboratory of Personalized Health (LPH) under its license from the CT Department of Public Health (license CL-0644) and certification with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (ID# 07D ) under the CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments). The HILOmet test has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): FDA approval or clearance is not required for the HILOmet System. accessed on 15 May 2013 GeneSightRx ADHD Results Patient, Sample DOB: 11/14/1984 Reference: Order N Clinician: Report Date: 4/23/2012 USE AS DIRECTED USE WITH CAUTION USE WITH INCREASED CAUTION AND WITH MORE FREQUENT MONITORING dexmethylphenidate (Focalin ) [4] methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta, Metadate, Daytrana ) [4] atomoxetine (Strattera ) [5] amphetamine salts (Adderall ) [1] dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine ) [1] lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse ) [1] [1]: CYP2D6 genotype indicates that blood levels may be increased for this drug.

[5]: CYP2D6 genotype indicates that this patient may experience increased side-effects, but also increased efficacy All ADHD medications require clinical monitoring. Drugs are reported in alphabetical order. This report is not intended to imply that the drugs listed are approved for the same indications or that they are comparable in safety or efficacy. The brand name is shown for illustrative purposes only; other brand names may be available. The prescribing physician should review the prescribing information for the drug(s) being considered and make treatment decisions based on the patient's individual needs and the characteristics of the drug prescribed. Patient Genotypes and Phenotypes CYP2D6 Poor Metabolizer *4/*4 CYP2D6*4: This allele produces no enzyme activity. CYP2D6*4: This allele produces no enzyme activity. Comment: This genotype is associated with a poor metabolizer phenotype. This patient may have reduced enzyme activity as compared to individuals with the normal genotype. COMT High Activity VAL/VAL This patient does not carry the Met allele and may be expected to experience a positive response with stimulants. ADRA2A Improved Response C/G This patient is heterozygous for the G allele and is more likely to experience an improved response to methylphenidate and dexmethylphenidate.

17 Limitations Tendancy to simplify drug metabolism Incomplete understanding of pathophysiology Inconsistent results for replicating genetic association between biomarkers and outcomes - Patient sample diagnostic heterogeneity - Study methodologies Screening for specific polymorphisms vs. performing genome-wide association Key variables: treatment non-adherence; impact of environmental stress; impact of other genes Pharmacogenomics: Challenges and Opportunities in Therapeutic Implementation.

18 Poor Tx Outcome Document: - Drug-pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics - Tx adherence - Specific outcomes Poor symtpomatic improvement Poor tolerability - Other medications How many failed treatment trials are needed before we genotype? Scenario A 21 yo caucasian male student with ADHD is treated with atomoxetine and instructed to start 40 mg/day for 3 days and then increase to 80 mg/day which they are to take until their next clinic appointment. By the end of the third day of atomoxetine 40 mg/day, the student calls complaining of tachycardia (HR = 120 bpm), elevated blood pressure (130/90), extreme nausea and insomnia. No other meds, otherwise healthy. - What might we predict this patient s metabolizer status to be based on this brief clinical scenario? - How might this scenario be interpreted if there was no genotype data?...if the patient were known to be a 2D6EM? Scenario A 20 yo AA female student with MDD presents to health services in an episode of major depression. The student has failed three antidepressant treatment trials: fluoxetine 40 mg/day x 8 weeks, paroxetine 40 mg/day x 8 weeks and venlafaxine 300 mg/day x 10 weeks. The patient reports that for each antidepressant treatment trial she took the medication as intended and that despite this, she received no therapeutic benefit. She states It was like I didn t even have any side effects! - What might we predict this patient s metabolizer status to be? - What might we predict this patient s 5HT transporter genotype to be? - How might this scenario be interpreted if there was no genotype data?...if the patient were known to be a 2D6EM?
