Ethical, legal and policy issues within pharmacogenetics Risk of Loss of Patient Confidentiality –Need for anonymized DNA storage systems Risk that existing patents will stifle progress –Need for careful interpration of Bayh-Dole Untangling the relationship between genetics and self-described ethnicity

Role Models for Pharmacogenetics Concorde? Nuclear Power? The Longitude Problem?

SNP Variability in The Human Genome December 2007 2.85 billion base pairs ~22,000 genes 1.7% of the genome codes for protein 3.3% of the genome is as conserved as the 1.7% that codes for protein On average 1 SNP/1.2kb 10 - 15 million SNPs that occur at > 1% frequency ~450,000 SNPs in MCS (Multiply Conserved Regions)
8
SNP Variability In Exons ~150,000 SNPs in known exons 48,451 non-synonymous SNPs 1113 introduce a stop codon 104 disrupt an existing STOP

Current Clinical Ability to Predict Response Clinical Value of a Pharmacogenetic Test Pharmacogenetic Principle 1: Value Decreases when Current Predictive Ability is High Meyer UA and Flockhart DA, 2005 Azathioprine/TPMT β-blockade/β Receptor Cancer Chemotherapy Antidepressants/5HTR

14
Skewed Distribution
15
Example 1 of a Skewed Distribution: Heterogeneity in response to Inhaled Corticosteroids Weiss ST et al. Hum Molec Genetics 2004; 13:1353-1359
16
Using the extremes of a phenotypic distribution as a strategy to identify pharmacogenetic predictors Example: Iressa™ and the EGF receptor
17
Lessons Germline genetic variation matters, but so do somatic mutations in tumors Extremes of phenotype are often viewed as “discardable data”, but outliers should be viewed as important research stimuli

Fig. 3. Correlation of the exon 26 SNP with MDR-1 expression. The MDR- phenotype (expression and activity) of 21 volunteers and patients was determined by Western blot analyses. The box plot shows the distribution of MDR-1 expression clustered according to the MDR-1 genotype at the relevant exon 26 SNP. The genotype-phenotype correlation has a significance of P = 0.056 (n = 21). P-Glycoprotein Pharmacogenetics : Effect of a “wobble” (no coding change) SNP in exon 26 Eichelbaum et al.

CYP2D6 Alleles 67 as of December, 2007 24 alleles have no activity 6 have decreased activity *1, *2, *4 and many others have copy number polymorphisms The *2 variant can have 1,2,3,4,5 or 13 copies i.e increased activity
