Test Code 1A2Q Cytochrome P450 1A2 Genotype, Varies

Reporting Name

CYP1A2 Genotype, V

Performing Laboratory

Mayo Clinic Laboratories in Rochester

Useful For

Identifying individuals who are poor, intermediate, normal (extensive) or rapid metabolizers of drugs metabolized by cytochrome P450 1A2 to assist drug therapy decision making

Method Name

Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) with Allelic Discrimination Analysis


Ordering Guidance


Testing is available as the single gene assay (this test) or as a part of a focused pharmacogenomics panel, which includes testing for the following genes: CYPs 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 3A4, 3A5, 4F2, SLCO1B1, and VKORC1.

 

Order PGXQP / Focused Pharmacogenomics Panel, Varies if multiple pharmacogenomic genotype testing is desired.

Interpretation

An interpretive report will be provided.

 

The genotype, with associated star alleles, is assigned using standard allelic nomenclature as published by the Pharmacogene Variation (PharmVar) Consortium.(6)

 

CYP1A2 activity is also dependent upon hepatic function status, as well as age. Renal function may be important for drugs that are excreted in urine. Patients may develop drug toxicity if hepatic or renal function is decreased. Drug metabolism is known to decrease with age. It is important to interpret the results of testing and dose adjustments in the context of hepatic and renal function and age.
