Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics/Pharmacogenomics PRN Focus Session — Current and Future Strategies for Managing Complex Cases in Precision Medicine

Precision medicine, including the use of pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing, is becoming more common in clinical practice, and a variety of evidence-based resources have been developed to help guide prescribing decisions with these factors in mind. However, drug response is multifactorial and may be impacted by numerous patient characteristics or other factors such as organ function, drug interactions, or other conditions, all of which may require enhanced monitoring and modification of genetic considerations. It can be challenging for pharmacists to navigate the application of PGx results in these scenarios. The goals of this session are to (1) discuss current and future strategies for managing precision medicine considerations with other patient factors, (2) explore the available evidence for these unique considerations, and (3) discuss strategies for managing these scenarios in clinical practice.
