The convergence of therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacogenetic testing to optimize efavirenz therapy.
The aim of this study was to show the benefits of combining therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and pharmacogenetic analyses to optimize efavirenz (EFV) therapy. Patients were selected to minimize nongenetic differences between patients: 32 HIV adherent patients without drug interactions treated with an EFV nonindividualized dose over at least 1 year and included in a TDM program were genotyped a...
متن کاملPharmacogenetic Testing May Improve Drug Treatments and Shorten Disability Leaves.
This article describes how methods of personalized medicine-specifically, pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing-can benefit private health plans, benefits managers, care providers and consumers alike. The authors cover pharmacogenomics as a science and also introduce an innovative way to optimize drug treatments. The article touches on some important clinical outcomes drawn from a recent study in commu...
متن کاملVehicle Interior Vibration Simulation-a Tool for Engine Mount Optimization
By new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. In present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. The method is similar to classical multilevel TPA methods but has distinct differences. The method is named VIVS which stands for Vehicle Interior Vibratio...
متن کاملPharmacogenetic application in personalized cancer treatment.
Pharmacogenetic is broadly understood as study or clinical testing of genetic variations that contribute to differing response to drugs. In cancer treatment, applications of pharmacogenetic cover three areas: avoidance of adverse drug reaction (ADR), selection of treatment options, and prediction of cancer recurrence. Patients with genetic variations in UGT1A1 and DPYD genes are hypersensitive ...
متن کاملUrine drug testing for oxycodone and its metabolites as a tool for drug-drug interactions?
A recent article by Elder et al. (1) used urinary concentrations of oxycodone, oxymorphone and noroxycodone from a large patient sample collected for routine drug monitoring purposes. The two aims were the identification of factors contributing to the known drug testing variability and the potential monitoring of clinically significant drug–drug interactions. Unfortunately, in only 49% of the u...
