ClinPharmSeq: A targeted sequencing panel for clinical pharmacogenetics implementation.

ABSTRACT: The accurate identification of genetic variants contributing to therapeutic drug response or adverse effects is the first step in implementation of precision drug therapy. Targeted sequencing has recently become a common methodology for large-scale studies of genetic variation thanks to its favorable balance between low cost, high throughput, and deep coverage. Here, we present ClinPharmSeq, a targeted sequencing panel of 59 genes with associations to pharmacogenetic (PGx) phenotypes, as a platform to explore the relationship between drug response and genetic variation, both common and rare. For validation, we sequenced DNA from 64 ethnically diverse Coriell samples with ClinPharmSeq to call star alleles (haplotype patterns) in 27 genes using the bioinformatics tool PyPGx.
