A retrospective analysis of actionable pharmacogenetic/genomic biomarker language in FDA labels.

ABSTRACT: The primary goal of precision medicine is to maximize the benefit-risk relationships for individual patients by delivering the right drug to the right patients at the right dose. To achieve this goal, it has become increasingly important to assess gene-drug interactions (GDIs) in clinical settings. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) periodically updates the table of pharmacogenetic/genomic (PGx) biomarkers in drug labeling on their website. As described herein, an effort was made to categorize various PGx biomarkers covered by the FDA-PGx table into certain groups. There were 2 major groups, oncology molecular targets (OMT) and drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs), which constitute ~70% of all biomarkers (~33% and ~35%, respectively). These biomarkers were further clas
