- Topics of my presentation –

Centre for Pharmacology and Toxicology

• Translational genomics(HUGO, disease diagnostics, clinical trialsand patient stratification)

• How SNPs affect drug safety andtherapeutic efficacy (PK, ADME genes,treatment „responder“, clinical outcome..)

• Genetic factors linked to DILI

Human Genome Project• At the DNA sequence level all humans are >99% identical

(initial draft 2001; the 1000 Genomes Project in 2010)

• Mice and chimpanzee genomes are very similar to humans; even protein coding regions are ~ 90% identical

• “Housekeeping” genes are highly conserved (human versus yeast 26% or fruit fly ~ 44%)

• Individual genomes carry ∼3 million SNPs but most do not impact protein function.

• SNPs in non-coding regions affect gene splicing, transcription factor binding, messenger RNA degradation, or the sequence of non-coding RNAs.

• Each person carries ~ 250 to 300 loss-of-function and 50 to 100 variant genes previously implicated in inherited disorders

• There is no life without CYP monooxygenases; all livingsystems (plants, bacteria, fungi, animals) carry CYP genes.

• In animals original functions lie within chlosterolmetabolism/ membrane biology and host defense againstplant „secondary synthesis products“ such as alkaloids

Humans have 57 CYP genes and ~ 59 pseudogenes.CYP genes are divided among 18 families & 43 subfamilies.Mice have ~ 100 CYP genes

Melatonin (MT), N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, is a major hormone of the pineal gland, is a multitasking molecule and exerts anti-excitatory and sedating effects. MT is an anticonvulsant and functions through two MT-receptor (GPCR).

(S)-warfarin blocks Vitamin K epoxide Reductase Complex VKORC1 activity resulting in the depletion of reduced vitamin K.This results in decreased γ-carboxylation of coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X by gamma-glutamylcarboxylase GGCX and prolonged blood coagulation. CYP2C9 catalyzes the 7-hydroxylation of (S)-warfarin to inactivate the drug, whereas, calumenin modulates GGCX function to affect blood clotting. Variant CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes require dose adjustment

• TPMT*3 is of great importance in cancer therapy. Drugs such as mercaptopurine, azathiopurine and thioguanine are prodrugs and must be converted to thiopurine nucleotides.

• TPMT competes with HPRT (hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase) and inactivates drugs by S-methylation.

• TPMT deficient patients require dose adjustment because they experience severe toxicity to drug treatment due to increased levels of thioguanine nucleotides (TGN).

• Significant differences in the allelic frequencies of the pNAT and CYP2D6 genes among epileptic patients (role of melatonin…)

• Actylation of melatonin is extremely important and protects 5HT against MAO degradation and thus permanent loss of function

• Melatonin increases in epileptic seizures• There was a significant increase of PMs

amongst epileptic patients (2=4.01, p<0.05), i.e. 9.1 vs 4.3%

• There was a significant increase of slow acetylators among epileptic patients and many anticonvulsive drugs require N-acetylation for metabolic clearance

AIMS: A 23-year-old Caucasian woman, with cystic fibrosis, bilateral lung-transplantation and immunosuppressive therapy with prednisolone, tacrolimus and sirolimus, presented with clinical symptoms of a chronic transplant rejection.METHODS: Since constant sufficient blood level of tacrolimus and sirolimus had never been achieved, a genetic analysis was carried out to clarify drug metabolism.RESULTS: The genetic analysis for polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4,5,7 revealed no sequence alterations in the CYP 3A4,5,7 gene. Thus, drug intake was scrutinized in detail, disclosing a missing interval between the intake of both immunosuppressiveagents. After a correct drug intake the woman's condition ameliorated and the blood levels reached normal range.CONCLUSIONS: This case report highlights the crucial importance of basic medical skills like an accurate and dainty drug anamnesis before high tech approaches were applied.

• HLA-B*5701 allele was associated with an 80-fold increased risk of developing DILI (Dale et al., 2009 Nature Genetics; DILIGEN & Serious Adverse Event consortium)

• This HLA allele is also associated with abacavir-hypersensitivity in HIV patients. • The HLA-B*5701 in the general population (6 to 8%) and the low incidence of DILI in

treated patients (1 in 10,000) leads to a low positive predictive value (0.12%).• Testing for HLA-B*5701 may help diagnose flucloxacillin cholestasis in patients that

develop jaundice but use of the drug should not be withheld in HLA-B*5701 positive individuals.

Genetic studies of Flucloxacillin hepatotoxicity

Centre for Pharmacology and Toxicology

Genetic studies in pooled idiosyncratic DILI patients

• DILI susceptibility may be shared across multiple drugs but a GWA study in 783 Caucasian individuals who experienced DILI from over 200 different drugs did not reveal significant associations.

• Stratification of cases according to injury pattern, latency, severity, drug class and clinical phenotypes/medical history did not reveal any association

• Susceptibility to Amoxicillin-Clavulanate-induced liver injury is influenced by multiple HLA class I and II alleles

• Pharmacogenetic polymorphisms influence the metabolism and therefore PK of drugs.

• This can impact safety, particularly with drugs of narrow therapeutic index.

• Pharmacogenetics permits “personalized” dose selection to ensure safety and therapeutic efficacy.

• The pharmacogenetics of drug targets (receptors, ion channels etc.) will be key for defining “drug responders” and a sine qua non for precision medicine

• Pharmacogentics and translational genomics will bea major breakthrough in precision medicine
