Using population pharmacokinetic analyses of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6 to study the genotype-phenotype translation.

Abstract excerpt

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) is an important drug-metabolizing enzyme exhibiting extensive interindividual variability predominantly caused by genetic polymorphism. Predicting CYP2D6 function based on genotype may be used to personalize pharmacotherapy, but the process of translating CYP2D6 genotype into predicted phenotype is complex and has suffered from a lack of consensus. The Clinical Pharmacogenetics...
