Ototoxic and nephrotoxic drugs in neonatal intensive care units: results of a Spanish and Italian survey. Eur J Pediatr 2024:10.1007/s00431-024-05467-w. [PMID: 38492032 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-024-05467-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
Neonates face heightened susceptibility to drug toxicity, often exposed to off-label medications with dosages extrapolated from adult or pediatric studies. Premature infants in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) are particularly at risk due to underdeveloped pharmacokinetics and exposure to multiple drugs. The study aimed to survey commonly used medications with a higher risk of ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity in Spanish and Italian neonatal units. A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in Italian and Spanish neonatal units using a web-based survey with 43 questions. A modified Delphi method involved experts refining the survey through online consensus. Ethical approval was obtained, and responses were collected from January to July 2023. The survey covered various aspects, including drug-related ototoxic and nephrotoxic management, hearing screening, and therapeutic drug monitoring. Responses from 131 participants (35.9% from Spain and 64.1% from Italy) revealed awareness of drug toxicity risks. Varied practices were observed in hearing screening protocols, and a high prevalence of ototoxic and nephrotoxic drug use, including aminoglycosides (100%), vancomycin (70.2%), loop diuretics (63.4%), and ibuprofen (62.6%). Discrepancies existed in guideline availability and adherence, with differences between Italy and Spain in therapeutic drug monitoring practices. CONCLUSIONS The study underscores the need for clinical guidelines and uniform practices in managing ototoxic and nephrotoxic drugs in neonatal units. Awareness is high, but inconsistencies in practices indicate a necessity for standardization, including the implementation of therapeutic drug monitoring and the involvement of clinical pharmacologists. Addressing these issues is crucial for optimizing neonatal care in Southern Europe. WHAT IS KNOWN • Neonates in intensive care face a high risk of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity from drugs like aminoglycosides, vancomycin, loop diuretics, and ibuprofen. • Therapeutic drug monitoring is key for managing these risks, optimizing dosing for efficacy and minimizing side effects. WHAT IS NEW • NICUs in Spain and Italy show high drug toxicity awareness but differ in ototoxic/nephrotoxic drug management. • Urgent need for standard guidelines and practices to address nephrotoxic risks from aminoglycosides, vancomycin, loop diuretics, and ibuprofen.

[PMID: 36350309 PMCID: PMC9926081 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
The goal of this study was to determine whether CYP2D6 metabolizer status within the ondansetron-treated pediatric tonsillectomy population is associated with risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the post-anesthesia care unit. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of pediatric patients (<18 years) who underwent tonsillectomy and received ondansetron on the day of the procedure. Data were obtained from BioVU, an institutional biobank that links DNA to de-identified electronic health record data. Subjects were tested for 10 CYP2D6 allelic variants and copy number variation, and genotype data translated into CYP2D6 metabolizer status. The cohort included 652 individuals, 105 (16.1%) of whom had PONV. Rates of PONV were similar across groups: ultrarapid metabolizers (UMs), 1 of 9 (11.1%); normal metabolizers (NMs), 64 of 354 (18.1%); intermediate metabolizers (IMs), 33 of 234 (14.1%); poor metabolizers (PMs), 6 of 39 (15.4%); and ambiguous phenotypes, 1 of 16 (6.3%). In multivariable analysis adjusted for age, sex, and time under anesthesia, CYP2D6 metabolizer status was not associated with PONV, with an odds ratio of 1.37 (95% confidence interval 0.9, 2.1) when comparing PM/IM versus NM/UM. In this large pediatric population, no significant differences were detected for PONV based on CYP2D6 metabolizer status. Further investigation is needed to determine mechanisms for ondansetron inefficacy in children.

Abstract
The genes that control drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) are also involved in carcinogenesis, cancer progression, and chemoresistance. However, no studies have systematically investigated the clinical significance and underlying functions of ADME genes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Herein, we comprehensively explored the ADME genes in this disease, constructed and validated as a prognostic ADME gene signature (ADMEGS), using three ADME genes (ABCB1, ALDH1B1, and PON2) utilizing multiple datasets, including the training and test sets of The Cancer Genome Atlas and the Gene Expression Omnibus validation set. Moreover, we analyzed the relationship between the ADMEGS and clinical parameters, tumor immunity, and therapeutic response. We found that the ADMEGS was significantly correlated with the clinical, T, and N stages. Additionally, we were able to effectively differentiate tumor immune scores, immune cell infiltration statuses, and treatment responses based on the ADMEGS. As such, ADMEGS may be promising predictors for clinical outcome, tumor immunity, and treatment response.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is a frequently seen burdensome adverse event of cancer therapy. The 5-HT3 receptor antagonist ondansetron has improved the rates of CINV but, unfortunately, up to 30% of patients do not obtain satisfactory control. This study examined whether genetic variations in a relevant drug-metabolizing enzyme (CYP2D6), transporter (ABCB1), or receptor (5-HT3) were associated with ondansetron failure. METHODS DNA was extracted from blood and used to genotype: ABCB1 (3435C > T (rs1045642) and G2677A/T (rs2032582)), 5-HT3RB (rs3758987 T > C and rs45460698 (delAAG/dupAAG)), and CYP2D6 variants. Ondansetron failure was determined by review of the medical records and by patient-reported outcomes (PROs). RESULTS One hundred twenty-nine patients were approached; 103 consented. Participants were less than 1 to 33 years (mean 6.85). A total of 39.8% was female, 58.3% was White (22.3% Black, 19.4% other), and 24.3% was Hispanic. A majority had leukemia or lymphoma, and 41 (39.8%) met the definition of ondansetron failure. Of variants tested, rs45460698 independently showed a significant difference in risk of ondansetron failure between a mutant (any deletion) and normal allele (p = 0.0281, OR 2.67). Age and BMI were both predictive of ondansetron failure (age > 12 (OR 1.12, p = 0.0012) and higher BMI (OR 1.13, p = 0.0119)). In multivariate analysis, age > 12 was highly predictive of ondansetron failure (OR 7.108, p = 0.0008). rs45460698 was predictive when combined with an increased nausea phenotype variant of rs1045642 (OR 3.45, p = 0.0426). CONCLUSION Select phenotypes of 5-HT3RB and ABCB1, age, and potentially BMI can help predict increased risk for CINV in a diverse pediatric oncology population.

Abstract
This review evaluates the pediatric evidence for pharmacogenetic associations for drugs that are commonly prescribed by or encountered by pediatric clinicians across multiple subspecialties, organized from most to least pediatric evidence. We begin with the pharmacogenetic research that led to the warning of increased risk of death in certain pediatric populations ("ultrarapid metabolizers") who are prescribed codeine after tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy. We review the evidence for genetic testing for thiopurine metabolism, which has become routine in multiple pediatric subspecialties. We discuss the pharmacogenetic research in proton pump inhibitors, for which clinical guidelines have recently been made available. With an increase in the prevalence of behavioral health disorders including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), we review the pharmacogenetic literature on selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and ADHD medications. We will conclude this section on the current pharmacogenetic data on ondansetron. We also provide our perspective on how to integrate the current research on pharmacogenetics into clinical care and what further research is needed. We discuss how institutions are managing pharmacogenetic test results and implementing them clinically, and how the electronic health record can be leveraged to ensure testing results are available and taken into consideration when prescribing medications. IMPACT: While many reviews of pharmacogenetics literature are available, there are few focused on pediatrics. Pediatricians across subspecialties will become more comfortable with pharmacogenetics terminology, know resources they can use to help inform their prescribing habits for drugs with known pharmacogenetic associations, and understand the limitations of testing and where further research is needed.

Abstract
The safety and efficacy of pharmacotherapy in children, particularly preterms, neonates, and infants, is limited by a paucity of good quality data from prospective clinical drug trials. A specific challenge is the establishment of valid biomarkers. OMICs technologies may support these efforts, by complementary information about targeted and non-targeted molecules through systematic characterization and quantitation of biological samples. OMICs technologies comprise at least genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and microbiomics in addition to the patient's phenotype. OMICs technologies are in part hypothesis-generating allowing an in depth understanding of disease pathophysiology and pharmacological mechanisms. Application of OMICs technologies in paediatrics faces major challenges before routine adoption. First, developmental processes need to be considered, including a sub-division into specific age groups as developmental changes clearly impact OMICs data. Second, compared to the adult population, the number of patients is limited as well as type and amount of necessary biomaterial, especially in neonates and preterms. Thus, advanced trial designs and biostatistical methods, non-invasive biomarkers, innovative biobanking concepts including data and samples from healthy children, as well as analytical approaches (e.g. liquid biopsies) should be addressed to overcome these obstacles. The ultimate goal is to link OMICs technologies with innovative analysis tools, like artificial intelligence at an early stage. The use of OMICs data based on a feasible approach will contribute to identify complex phenotypes and subpopulations of patients to improve development of medicines for children with potential economic advantages.

Abstract
PURPOSE ADME genes are those involved in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of drugs. In the present study, a non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) risk prediction model was established using prognosis-associated ADME genes, and the predictive performance of this model was evaluated and verified. In addition, multifaceted difference analysis was performed on groups with high and low risk scores. METHODS An NSCLC sample transcriptome and clinical data were obtained from public databases. The prognosis-associated ADME genes were obtained by univariate Cox and lasso regression analyses to build a risk model. Tumor samples were divided into high-risk and low-risk score groups according to the risk score. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses of the differentially expressed genes and the differences in the immune infiltration, mutation, and medication reactions in the two groups were studied in detail. RESULTS A risk prediction model was established with seven prognosis-associated ADME genes. Its good predictive ability was confirmed by studies of the model's effectiveness. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that the model's risk score was an independent prognostic factor for patients with NSCLC. The study also showed that the risk score closely correlated with immune infiltration, mutations, and medication reactions. CONCLUSION The risk prediction model established with seven ADME genes in the present study can predict the prognosis of patients with NSCLC. In addition, significant differences in immune infiltration, mutations, and therapeutic efficacy exist between the high- and low-risk score groups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the association between genetic variants reported to affect risperidone and adverse events (AEs) in children and adolescents. METHODS Individuals aged 18 years or younger with ≥4 weeks of risperidone exposure in a deidentified DNA biobank were included. The primary outcome was AE frequency as a function of genotype. Individuals were classified according to metabolizer status for CYP2D6, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5; wild type, heterozygote, or homozygote for specific single nucleotide variants for DRD2, DRD3, HTR2A, and HTR2C; and wild type versus nonwild type for multiple uncommon variants in ABCG2, ABCB1, and HTR2C. Tests of association of each classification to AEs were performed using a Fisher exact test and logistic regression, and statistically significant classifications were included in a final logistic regression. RESULTS The final cohort included 257 individuals. AEs were more common in CYP2D6 poor/intermediate metabolizers (PMs/IMs) than normal/rapid/ultrarapid metabolizers (NMs/RMs/UMs) in univariate and multivariate analysis. HTR2A-rs6311 heterozygotes and homozygotes had fewer AEs than wild types in logistic regression but not in univariate analysis. In the final multivariable model adjusting for age, race, sex, and risperidone dose, AEs were associated with CYP2D6 (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.6, 95% CI 1.1-5.5, for PMs/IMs vs. NMs/RMs/UMs) and HTR2A-rs6311 (AOR 0.6, 95% CI 0.4-0.9, for each variant allele), both consistent with previous studies. CONCLUSION Children and adolescents who are CYP2D6 PMs/IMs may have an increased risk for risperidone AEs. Of the genes and variants studied, only CYP2D6 has consistent association and sufficient data for clinical use, whereas HTR2A-rs6311 has limited data and requires further study.

Abstract
Aim: To assess providers' knowledge, attitudes, perceptions, and experiences related to pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing in pediatric patients. Materials & methods: An electronic survey was sent to multidisciplinary healthcare providers at a pediatric hospital. Results: Of 261 respondents, 71.3% were slightly or not at all familiar with PGx, despite 50.2% reporting prior PGx education or training. Most providers, apart from psychiatry, perceived PGx to be at least moderately useful to inform clinical decisions. However, only 26.4% of providers had recent PGx testing experience. Unfamiliarity with PGx and uncertainty about the clinical value of testing were common perceived challenges. Conclusion: Low PGx familiarity among pediatric providers suggests additional education and electronic resources are needed for PGx examples in which data support testing in children.

There is limited evidence to support pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing in children. We conducted a retrospective review of PGx testing among 452 patients at an academic children's hospital to determine the potential utility of PGx in diseases of childhood and to identify targets for future pediatric pharmacogenetic research. An actionable gene-drug pair associated with the 28 genes tested (Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) level A or B, Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Base (PharmGKB) level 1A or B, or US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommendation and a PharmGKB level) was present in 98.7% of patients. We identified 203 actionable gene-drug-diagnosis groups based on the indications for each actionable drug listed in Lexicomp. Among patients with an actionable gene-drug-diagnosis group, 49.3% had a diagnosis where the drug was a therapeutic option and PGx could be used to guide treatment selection. Among patients with an associated diagnosis, 30.9% had a prescription for the actionable drug allowing PGx guided dosing. Three genes (CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A5) accounted for all the gene-drug-diagnosis groups with matching diagnoses and prescriptions. The most common gene-drug-diagnosis groups with matching diagnoses and prescriptions were CYP2C19-citalopram-escitalopram-depression 3.3% of patients tested; CYP2C19-dexlansoprazole-gastritis-esophagitis 3.1%; CYP2C19-omeprazole-gastritis-esophagitis 2.4%; CYP2D6-atomoxetine-attention deficit hyperactivity disorder 2.2%; and CYP2C19-citalopram-escitalopram-obsessive-compulsive disorder 1.5%. PGx could be used to guide selection of current treatment options or medication dosing in almost half (48.7%) of pediatric patients tested. Mood disorders and gastritis/esophagitis are promising targets for future study of PGx testing because of the high prevalence of these diagnoses and associated actionable gene-drug pairs in the pediatric population.

Abstract
Introduction: Precision drug therapy requires accounting for pertinent factors in pharmacokinetic (PK) inter-individual variability (i.e., pharmacogenetics, diseases, polypharmacy, and natural product use) that can cause sub-therapeutic or adverse effects. Although each of these individual factors can alter victim drug PK, multi-factorial interactions can cause additive, synergistic, or opposing effects. Determining the magnitude and direction of these complex multi-factorial effects requires understanding the rate-limiting redundant and/or sequential PK processes for each drug.Areas covered: Perturbations in drug-metabolizing enzymes and/or transporters are integral to single- and multi-factorial PK interactions. Examples of single factor PK interactions presented include gene-drug (pharmacogenetic), disease-drug, drug-drug, and natural product-drug interactions. Examples of multi-factorial PK interactions presented include drug-gene-drug, natural product-gene-drug, gene-gene-drug, disease-natural product-drug, and disease-gene-drug interactions. Clear interpretation of multi-factorial interactions can be complicated by study design, complexity in victim drug PK, and incomplete mechanistic understanding of victim drug PK.Expert opinion: Incorporation of complex multi-factorial PK interactions into precision drug therapy requires advances in clinical decision tools, intentional PK study designs, drug-metabolizing enzyme and transporter fractional contribution determinations, systems and computational approaches (e.g., physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling), and PK phenotyping of progressive diseases.

The Expression Profiles of ADME Genes in Human Cancers and Their Associations with Clinical Outcomes. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12113369.

Abstract
ADME genes are a group of genes that are involved in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). The expression profiles of ADME genes within tumours is proposed to impact on cancer patient survival; however, this has not been systematically examined. In this study, our comprehensive analyses of pan-cancer datasets from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) revealed differential intratumoral expression profiles for ADME genes in 21 different cancer types. Most genes also showed high interindividual variability within cancer-specific patient cohorts. Using Kaplan-Meier plots and logrank tests, we showed that intratumoral expression levels of twenty of the thirty-two core ADME genes were associated with overall survival (OS) in these cancers. Of these genes, five showed significant association with unfavourable OS in three cancers, including SKCM (ABCC2, GSTP1), KIRC (CYP2D6, CYP2E1), PAAD (UGT2B7); sixteen showed significant associations with favourable OS in twelve cancers, including BLCA (UGT2B15), BRCA (CYP2D6), COAD (NAT1), HNSC (ABCB1), KIRC (ABCG2, CYP3A4, SLC22A2, SLC22A6), KIRP (SLC22A2), LIHC (CYP2C19, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP3A5, SLC22A1), LUAD (SLC15A2), LUSC (UGT1A1), PAAD (ABCB1), SARC (ABCB1), and SKCM (ABCB1, DYPD). Overall, these data provide compelling evidence supporting ADME genes as prognostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets. We propose that intratumoral expression of ADME genes may impact cancer patient survival by multiple mechanisms that can include metabolizing/transporting anticancer drugs, activating anticancer drugs, and metabolizing/transporting a variety of endogenous molecules involved in metabolically fuelling cancer cells and/or controlling pro-growth signalling pathways.

Determination of novel CYP2D6 haplotype using the targeted sequencing followed by the long-read sequencing and the functional characterization in the Japanese population. J Hum Genet 2020; 66:139-149.

Abstract
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has identified variations in cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 associated with drug responses. However, determination of novel haplotypes is difficult because of the short reads generated by NGS. We aimed to identify novel CYP2D6 variants in the Japanese population and predict the CYP2D6 phenotype based on in vitro metabolic studies. Using a targeted NGS panel (PKSeq), 990 Japanese genomes were sequenced, and then novel CYP2D6 haplotypes were determined. Km, Vmax, and intrinsic clearance (Vmax/Km) of N-desmethyl-tamoxifen 4-hydroxylation were calculated by in vitro metabolic studies using cDNA-expressed CYP2D6 proteins. After determination of the CYP2D6 diplotypes, phenotypes of the individuals were predicted based on the in vitro metabolic activities. Targeted NGS identified 14 CYP2D6 variants not registered in the Pharmacogene Variation Consortium (PharmVar) database. Ten novel haplotypes were registered as CYP2D6*128 to *137 alleles in the PharmVar database. Based on the Vmax/Km value of each allele, *128, *129, *130, *131, *132, and *133 were predicted to be nonfunctional alleles. According to the results of the present study, six normal metabolizers (NM) and one intermediate (IM) metabolizers were designated as IM and poor metabolizers (PM), respectively. Our findings provide important insights into novel haplotypes and haplotypes of CYP2D6 and the effects on in vitro metabolic activities.

Abstract
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) early life-stages are increasingly gaining attention as an alternative model in both human and environmental toxicology. Whereas there is amble knowledge about the transcription of various cytochrome P450 isoforms, the level of information about functional implications is still limited. This study investigated the development of CYP2-dependent 7-methoxycoumarin-O-demethylase (MCOD) activity throughout the early zebrafish development from 5 to 118 h post-fertilization (hpf) via confocal laser scanning microscopy. Results demonstrate that zebrafish embryos exhibit constitutive MCOD activity from as early as 5.5 hpf. Characteristic spatiotemporal patterns were documented with MCOD activities localized in several tissues and organs, namely the cardiovascular system, the brain, the digestive system, and the urinary tract. The study thereby contributes to a better understanding of the development and functional role of CYP enzymes in zebrafish early life-stages.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) aims to improve drug therapy using the individual patients' genetic make-up. Little is known about the potential impact of PGx on the population level, possibly hindering implementation of PGx in clinical care. Therefore, we investigated how many patients use actionable PGx drugs, have actionable genotypes or phenotypes and which patients could benefit the most of PGx testing. We included PGx recommendations from two international PGx consortia (Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) and Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG)). Using data from publically accessible sales information drawn from the Danish Register of Medicinal Product Statistics (MEDSTAT), we identified the number of users of actionable prescription PGx drugs among the total Danish population in 2017. We estimated actionable genotypes or phenotypes based on reported frequencies from literature. We identified 49 drug-gene interactions related to 41 unique prescription drugs. The estimated median frequency of actionable genotypes or phenotypes among prescription drug users was 25% (interquartile range 7-26%). Six of 41 drugs were used more than twice as much in women. Actionable PGx drugs were most frequently used by 45-79 year old patients (62%), followed by 25-44 year old patients (18%). Almost half of the actionable PGx drugs (19/41) were psychotropics (i.e., antidepressants, antipsychotics, or psychostimulants). PGx testing can have a substantial impact on the population, as one in four prescription drug users has an actionable genotype or phenotype and could thus benefit from PGx testing. We advocate for prospective panel-based PGx testing at the time of the first PGx drug prescription ("as needed"), with PGx results ready prior to start of the first, and all future, therapies.

Abstract
Interethnic variability in drug response arises from genetic differences associated with drug metabolism, action and transport. These genetic variations can affect drug efficacy as well as cause adverse drug reactions (ADRs). We retrieved drug-response related single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associated data from databases and analyzed to elucidate population specific distribution of 159 drug-response related SNPs in twenty six populations belonging to five super-populations (African, Admixed Americans, East Asian, European and South Asian). Significant interpopulation differences exist in the minor (variant) allele frequencies (MAFs), linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype distributions among these populations. 65 of the drug-response related alleles, which are considered as minor (variant) in global population, are present as the major alleles (frequency ≥0.5) in at least one or more populations. Populations that belong to the same super-population have similar distribution pattern for majority of the variant alleles. These drug response related variant allele frequencies and their pairwise LD measure (r2) can clearly distinguish the populations in a way that correspond to the known evolutionary history of human and current geographic distributions, while D' cannot. The data presented here may aid in identifying drugs that are more appropriate and/or require pharmacogenetic testing in these populations. Our findings emphasize on the importance of distinct, ethnicity-specific clinical guidelines, especially for the African populations, to avoid ADRs and ensure effective drug treatment.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics is a key component of precision medicine. Genetic variation in drug metabolism enzymes can lead to variable exposure to drugs and metabolites, potentially leading to inefficacy and drug toxicity. Although the evidence for pharmacogenetic associations in children is not as extensive as for adults, there are several drugs across diverse therapeutic areas with robust pediatric data indicating important, and relatively common, drug-gene interactions. Guidelines to assist gene-based dose optimization are available for codeine, thiopurine drugs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, atomoxetine, tacrolimus, and voriconazole. For each of these drugs, there is an opportunity to clinically implement precision medicine approaches with children for whom genetic test results are known or are obtained at the time of prescribing. For many more drugs that are commonly used in pediatric patients, additional investigation is needed to determine the genetic factors influencing appropriate dose.

Abstract
For the past several years, the implementation of pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing has become widespread in several centers and clinical practice settings. PGx testing may be ordered at the point-of-care when treatment is needed or in advance of treatment for future use. The potential benefits of PGx testing are not limited to adult patients, as children are increasingly using medications more often and at earlier ages. This review provides some background on the use of PGx testing in children as well as mothers (prenatally and post-natally) and discusses the challenges, benefits, and the ethical, legal, and social implications of providing PGx testing to children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are few and conflicting data on the role of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) polymorphisms in relation to risperidone adverse events (AEs) in children. This study assessed the association between CYP2D6 metabolizer status and risk for risperidone AEs in children. METHODS Children ≤18 years with at least 4 weeks of risperidone exposure were identified using BioVU, a de-identified DNA biobank linked to electronic health record data. The primary outcome of this study was AEs. After DNA sequencing, individuals were classified as CYP2D6 poor, intermediate, normal, or ultrarapid CYP2D6 metabolizers. RESULTS For analysis, the 257 individuals were grouped as poor/intermediate metabolizers (n = 33, 13%) and normal/ultrarapid metabolizers (n = 224, 87%). AEs were more common in poor/intermediate vs. normal/ultrarapid metabolizers (15/33, 46% vs. 61/224, 27%, P = 0.04). In multivariate analysis adjusting for age, sex, race, and initial dose, poor/intermediate metabolizers had increased AE risk (adjusted odds ratio 2.4, 95% confidence interval 1.1-5.1, P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Children with CYP2D6 poor or intermediate metabolizer phenotypes are at greater risk for risperidone AEs. Pre-prescription genotyping could identify this high-risk subset for an alternate therapy, risperidone dose reduction, and/or increased monitoring for AEs.

Abstract
The efficacy of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medications is highly dependent on plasma concentrations, which varies considerably due to cytochrome P450 (CYP2C19) genetic variation. We conducted a pragmatic, pilot study of CYP2C19 genotype‐guided pediatric dosing of PPI medications. Children aged 5–17 years old with gastric‐acid‐related conditions were randomized to receive either conventional dosing of a PPI or genotype‐guided dosing for a total of 12 weeks. Sixty children (30 in each arm) were enrolled and had comparable baseline characteristics. The mean daily omeprazole equivalent dose prescribed to participants across metabolizer phenotype groups was significantly different in the genotype‐guided dosing arm (P < 0.001), but not in the conventional dosing arm. Prescribers waited for the genotype result before prescribing the PPI medication for 90% of the participants in the genotype‐guided dosing arm. The number of participants who reported an infection was marginally lower in genotype‐guided dosing vs. conventional dosing (20% vs. 44%; P = 0.07). Sinonasal symptoms were higher in the conventional dosing arm as compared with genotype‐guided dosing arm: (2.6 (2.0, 3.4) vs. 1.8 (1.0, 2.3), P = 0.031). CYP2C19 genotype‐guided PPI therapy is feasible in a clinical pediatric setting, well accepted by providers, resulted in differential PPI dosing, and may reduce PPI‐associated infections. A future large scale randomized clinical trial of CYP2C19 genotype‐guided pediatric dosing of PPI medications in children is warranted.

Abstract
Individual genomic differences may affect drug disposition and effects of many drugs, and identification of biomarkers are crucial to personalize dosage and optimize response. In children, developmental changes associated with growth and maturation translate into different relationships between genotype and phenotype and different responses to treatment compared to adults. This review aims to summarize some developmental aspects of pharmacogenetics, based on practical examples.

Abstract
Poppy seeds are obtained from the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.). They are used as food and to produce edible oil. The opium poppy plant contains narcotic alkaloids such as morphine and codeine. Poppy seeds do not contain the opium alkaloids, but can become contaminated with alkaloids as a result of pest damage and during harvesting. The European Commission asked EFSA to provide an update of the Scientific Opinion on opium alkaloids in poppy seeds. The assessment is based on data on morphine, codeine, thebaine, oripavine, noscapine and papaverine in poppy seed samples. The CONTAM Panel confirms the acute reference dose (ARfD) of 10 μg morphine/kg body weight (bw) and concluded that the concentration of codeine in the poppy seed samples should be taken into account by converting codeine to morphine equivalents, using a factor of 0.2. The ARfD is therefore a group ARfD for morphine and codeine, expressed in morphine equivalents. Mean and high levels of dietary exposure to morphine equivalents from poppy seeds considered to have high levels of opium alkaloids (i.e. poppy seeds from varieties primarily grown for pharmaceutical use) exceed the ARfD in most age groups. For poppy seeds considered to have relatively low concentrations of opium alkaloids (i.e. primarily varieties for food use), some exceedance of the ARfD is also seen at high levels of dietary exposure in most surveys. For noscapine and papaverine, the available data do not allow making a hazard characterisation. However, comparison of the dietary exposure to the recommended therapeutical doses does not suggest a health concern for these alkaloids. For thebaine and oripavine, no risk characterisation was done due to insufficient data. However, for thebaine, limited evidence indicates a higher acute lethality than for morphine and the estimated exposure could present a health risk.
