The Texas Interprofessional Pharmacogenomics (IPGx)

The investigator's primary aim is to evaluate polypharmacy-associated adverse drug reactions (ADR) in a pilot study of at-risk patients using state-of-the-art pharmacogenomic technology and to use this information to make recommendations for optimization of pharmacotherapy regimens. The data from the pilot cohort will be used to optimize and integrate a customized electronic decision support (clinical semantic network; CSN) dashboard to identify drug regimens that should be modified, replaced, or discontinued. A secondary objective of the pilot study is to evaluate the capacity/saturation of CYP P450 enzymatic pathways in polypharmacy patients. A third objective is to determine the feasibility of the planned informatics workflows between the CLIA lab, the EMR, and the Family Medicine Practice.

Pharmacogenetic Testing of Patients With Unwanted Adverse Drug Reactions or Therapy Failure

Genetic makeup of a patient influences the efficacy and safety profile of a drug. This study is to summarize individual cases, where Pharmacogenetics (PGx) has been applied during pharmaceutical care. The primary objective is the compilation of case reports, where pharmacogenetic testing is applied to determine the hereditable component of the patient's susceptibility to experience therapy failure and/or adverse drug reactions. The experience with the compiled cases will be basis for the development of a reliable standard of procedure for pharmacogenetic testing in the community pharmacy. The cases will be supplemented with information on additional Parameters reported in the literature to affect efficacy or safety of the respective drug.

Personalised Therapeutics @LUMC

In PT@LUMC 2000 patients will be randomized between a PGx-guided dosing group and a standard of care group. The patients will be followed for one year in which they will be asked to report adverse drug reactions at one, three, six and twelve months.

Active Pharmacovigilance Study of the Medicine Rinvoq™ (Upadacitinib)

The LOOK-UP is an investigator-initiated clinical study with the aim of monitoring the post-marketing safety of the medicine Rinvoq™ (upadacitinib), which is indicated for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis, atopic dermatitis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease.
