Preface
This book focuses on the pharmacogenomics and precision medicine which is to maximize the likelihood of therapeutic efficacy and to minimize the risk of drug toxicity for an individual patient. This book introduces the principles of pharmacogenomics and precision medicine, followed by the pharmacogenomics aspects of major therapeutic areas such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, organ transplantation, psychiatry, infection, and thrombotic disease. It also includes related areas of genotyping technology and therapeutic drug monitoring in pharmacogenomics; gut microbiota; ethical, legal, and regulatory issues; cost-effectiveness of pharmacogenomics-guided drug therapy; application of pharmacogenomics in drug discovery and development; and clinical implementation of pharmacogenomics for personalized precision medicine. The ethnic difference of drug effect has become one of the important factors influencing dr
