What is ClinPGx?

ClinPGx is an NIH-funded resource that provides information about how human genetic variation affects response to medications. ClinPGx collects, curates and disseminates knowledge about clinically actionable gene-drug associations and genotype-phenotype relationships. When using ClinPGx, you will see different types of information. These are detailed in the sections below.

Resources

The ClinPGx Resources are curated collections of information centered around a chosen topic. This can range from pharmacogenomics knowledge relevant to certain clinical areas (e.g. cancer, addiction) to lists of internal and external educational resources in PGx and pharmacogenomics information from organizations including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP). ClinPGx Resources can be found under the Resources heading on the homepage and are listed below:

Cancer Pharmacogenetics(opens in new window) (collection of genes, drugs and pathways with pharmacogenetic information relevant to cancer)
PGx in Drug Use and Addiction(opens in new window) (collection of genes, drugs and pathways with pharmacogenetic information relevant to addiction)
Therapeutic Resource for COVID-19(opens in new window) (collection of genes, drugs and pathways with pharmacogenetic information relevant to the treatment of COVID-19 and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic)
Gene Information Tables(opens in new window) (Information tables for genes found in CPIC guidelines. Includes allele definition, functionality and frequency tables)
