Abstract

Aim: The clinical utility of pharmacogenomics (PGx) has been gaining traction alongside growing evidence that adverse drug reactions (ADRs) have significant genetic associations. Nala PGx Core® is a multi-gene qPCR-based panel of 20 allele variants, comprising 18 SNPs and two CYP2D6 copy number markers across four pharmacogenes - CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and SLCO1B1. Methods: In this study, we validated the performance of Nala PGx Core® against benchmark methods, on the Singaporean and Indonesian populations. Results & conclusion: Nala PGx Core® demonstrated robust and accurate genotyping when compared with other established benchmarks. Furthermore, the panel successfully characterized alleles of clinical relevance, such as CYP2D6*10 and CYP2D6*36, across major ethnic groups present of Singapore and Indonesia, suggesting its potential for adoption in clinical workflows regionally.
