Pharmacogenomics: Challenges and Opportunities in Therapeutic Implementation

Pharmacogenomics: Challenges and Opportunities in Therapeutic Implementation includes discussions and viewpoints from the academic, regulatory, pharmaceutical, clinical, socio-ethical and economic perspectives. Each chapter presents an overview of the potential or opportunity within the areas discussed and also outlines foreseeable challenges and limitations in moving pharmacogenomics into drug development and direct therapeutic applications. This edited book contains review questions for a more in-depth analysis of the implications of pharmacogenomics and discussion points to generate ideas on best to move the field forward. Clinical pearls and case studies are used to illustrate real-life experiences and both successful and unsuccessful applications. Tables, figures, and annotations are included throughout the book to facilitate understanding and further reference. Multi-contributed book and chapters are written by contributors who are experts in their fieldProvides perspectives from those involved in all aspects of pharmacogenomics-including academic, regulatory, economic, industry and medical-to illustrate how all of the pieces fit together and where the challenges may beIncludes case studies of both successful and unsuccessful applications so readers can consider the potential and challenges in moving the science into drug development and direct therapeutic applicationsChapters contain discussion questions and clinical pearls and enable readers to reflect on how to move pharmacogenomics forward and apply these observations and useful tips to their own work and research A companion website offers an elaboration on key points and discussion questions and provides patient case scenarios that illustrate how pharmacogenomics may be applied to a clinical setting INDICE: SECTION 1 1 Principles of Pharmacogenomics: Pharmacokinetic, Pharmacodynamic, and Clinical Implications 2 Translating Pharmacogenomic Research to Therapeutic Potentials 3 Governmental and Academic Efforts to Advance the Field of Pharmacogenomics (PGRN CPIC, PharmGKB) Section 2 4a Pharmacogenomics in Cancer Therapeutics 4b A Look to the Future:  Cancer epigenetics 5a Pharmacogenomics in Cardiovascular Diseases 5b A Look to the Future: Cardiovascular Pharmaco-epigenetics 6a Pharmacogenomics in Psychiatry Disorders 6b A Look to the Future: Epigenetics in psychiatric disorders and treatment 7 Role of Pharmacogenomics in Diabetes and Other Therapeutic Areas  SECTION 3 8a Molecular Approaches, Models, and Techniques in Pharmacogenomic Research and Development 8b Molecular Approaches, Models, and Techniques in Pharmacogenomic Research and Development 9a Incorporating Pharmacogenomics in Drug Development Part 1:  Rational  study designs for pharmacogenetic research and therapy - A perspective  from academia 9b Incorporating Pharmacogenomics in Drug Development Part 2:  A perspective from industry 10 Ethnobridging and Pharmacogenomics SECTION 4 11 Beyond ELSIs - Where to from here?
