Measuring the overall genetic component of nevirapine pharmacokinetics and the role of selected polymorphisms: towards addressing the missing heritability in pharmacogenetic phenotypes?
Article in Pharmacogenetics and genomics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveNevirapine is an important component of highly active antiretroviral therapy used in the treatment of HIV infection. There is a considerable variation in the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine and this variation can impact the efficacy and toxicity of nevirapine. Although some of this variation can be attributed to environmental factors, the degree to which heritability influences nevirapine pharmacokinetics is unknown. This study aims to estimate how much variation in nevirapine pharmacokinetics is due to genetic factors and to investigate the contribution of selected polymorphisms to this variability.
methodsTwo doses of immediate-release nevirapine were administered to European (n=11) and African American (n=6) participants recruited from the Research in Access to Care in the Homeless cohort. A repeated drug administration method was then used to determine the relative genetic contribution (r(GC)) to variability in nevirapine AUC(0-6 h). Nevirapine plasma levels were quantified using LC/MS/MS. Patients were also genotyped for selected polymorphisms in candidate genes that may influence nevirapine pharmacokinetics.
resultsA significant r(GC) for nevirapine AUC(0-6 h) was found in Europeans (P=0.02) and African Americans (P=0.01). A trend toward higher nevirapine AUC(0-6 h) for the CYP2B6 516TT (rs3745274; Q172H) genotype was observed in European Americans (P=0.19).
conclusionThis study demonstrates that there is a significant genetic component to variability in nevirapine pharmacokinetics. Although genetic variants such as CYP2B6 polymorphisms attributed to some of this variation, these data suggest that there may be additional genetic factors that influence nevirapine pharmacokinetics.
