Patent ID: 10991450

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and materials useful for determining metabolizer status. Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach using a genotyping panel and integration of genotypes of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 to assess CYP3A metabolizer status, applicable to all CYP3A substrates, including approximately 40% of all drugs. Algorithms for CYP3A metabolizer status are described. Where the contribution ratios of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 to overall drug levels or drug effects are known, the algorithm can be used to calculate optimal dosing. Where the contributory ratios to overall drug effects are not available, the contributory ratios can be calculated with use of the genotypes for use in drug development. Embodiments of the present invention can be used in optimizing drug treatments, selecting dose, designing therapeutics, and predicting efficacy.
