#Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes affect medication responses. This knowledge can help clinicians make better decisions. Max Smith of MedStar Health Research and colleagues from @NorthShoreWeb published a review of #PGx clinical decision support tools. doi.org/10.1002/cpt.27…

Electronic clinical decision support (CDS) is commonly called for in #PGx implementations. We conducted a scoping review on the current state. Most literature was on interruptive alerts but had a wide variability in response Mark Dunnenberger ASCPT Journal Family doi.org/10.1002/cpt.27…

A successful large-scale #pharmacogenetics implementation requires coordination and synergy among administrators, clinicians, informatics teams, laboratories, and patients accpjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ja…

Happy to contribute to this work that calls upon the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) U.S. FDA & ASCO to recommend DPYD testing when prescribing 5-FU and capecitabine. CPIC #PGx ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…

Happy to contribute to this work where we call upon the FDA to align with Europe in recommending DPYD testing and genotype-based dose adjustment to ensure patients with cancer receive safe and effective fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy Jai Patel et. al. ascpt.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

We asked oncology providers in our health system about PGx. It is important to stratify based on whether they typically prescribe that drug (figure). Providers with previous PGx education were more likely to have ordered a test (OR: 7.9; 95% CI: 1.1–56) futuremedicine.com/doi/10.2217/pg…

Oncologists are interested in #Pharmacogenomics and believe it can improve cancer care! Read more in this Future Medicine (Future Science Group) paper from Beth Peshkin, marc schwartz, Nadia Ashai, Sandra, Max Smith, and colleagues. doi.org/10.2217/pgs-20… MedStar Health Research #PGx

.Max Smith and colleagues assessed appraoches to pre-chemotherapy testing for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (DPYD) in the US. Their take-away? Routine DPYD testing requires coordinated healthcare team effort. doi.org/10.1007/s00520… MedStar Health Research Supportive Care in Cancer: Springer Journal

New clinical trial results! Ribociclib is used to treat certain breast cancers. We knew CYP3A inhibitors increase ribo levels by 3-fold. But does CYP3A5 genotype predict ribociclib levels? In short, no. A reassuring result for patients and clinicians. Georgetown Cancer Prevention and Control Program PGRN
