Abstract excerpt
A clinical trial was carried out to investigate the pharmacogenetics of single-dose pravastatin and pitavastatin pharmacokinetics in 173 and 164 healthy participants. Additionally, 96 participants were included from previous pharmacogenetic studies with pravastatin. In a genome-wide meta-analysis of pravastatin including all 269 participants, SLCO1B1 c.521T>C (rs4149056) was associated with increased AUC0-∞...
