Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, Apr 14, 2026 Peer-reviewed5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5-HT3) receptor antagonists are used to treat nausea and vomiting and in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced, radiation-induced, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. Most of the 5-HT3 receptor antagonists (i.e., ondansetron, tropisetron, dolasetron, palonosetron, and ramosetron) are metabolized by CYP2D6, but the extent of CYP2D6 involvement varies. CYP2D6 genetic variation can influence the metabolism of these medications, particularly ondansetron and tropisetron, thereby affecting drug efficacy. This guideline is an update to the 2016 Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) guideline for CYP2D6 genotype and use of ondansetron and tropisetron and includes updated information on CYP2D6 genetic testing and evidence tables. We summarize evidence from the published literature supporting these associations and provide therapeutic recommendations for 5-HT3 receptor antagonists based on CYP2D6 genotype, particularly where genetic variation is associated with reduced drug efficacy (updates at https://www.clinpgx.org/guideline/PA166251457).

Apr 3, 2026<title>Abstract</title> <p>Genetic predisposition and alcohol consumption are risk factors for increased blood pressure (BP), but their interactions influencing BP remain understudied. We conducted population-specific and cross-population meta-analyses of genome-wide gene-alcohol (GxAlc) interactions affecting BP in >1.1M individuals from multiple populations. We identified 46 GxAlc interaction loci for BP, including 21 from one-degree-of-freedom interaction tests (PGxAlc<5x10-8; or <0.05/Meff, Meff independent BP associations at P<10-5), and 25 from two-degree-of-freedom tests of main and interaction effects (PGxAlc<0.05/M2df, M2df independent 2df-associations at P2df<5x10-8), including 7 novel and 39 known BP loci. The 12q24 locus highlights the genetic effect of BRAP-rs11066001 on BP, being ~6 times larger in current drinkers than in non-drinkers. Gene prioritization with 46 GxAlc loci identified 15 genes with ≥3 lines of evidence (location, literature, druggability, functional/regulatory annotation, or pathway analyses). Several loci showed sex- and population-specific effects and revealed biological pathways of alcohol’s influence on BP, suggesting mechanisms underlying alcohol-induced hypertension.</p>
