PRODUCED by Pharmaqx Report For PRODUCED BY PharmaQx report for JOHN SMITH Take charge of your health THE OBJECTIVES OF PHARMAQX The PharmaQx pharmacogenetic analysis useful for : 1. determining whether you are at risk of experiencing side effects following the administration of a medication; 2. determining which medications are likely to be inefficient for you; 3. provide your healthcare professional recommendations regarding the dosage and use of medications. According to your genetic profile, a notification is provided for each medication, highlighting which medications are likely to cause side effects or be inefficient. This report is provided for information purposes only and cannot be considered as a diagnostic tool. WHAT IS ANALYZED? PharmaQx identifies the presence of genetic variations in six (6) genes. In turn, these genes determine how to build six (6) enzymes implicated in the response to the twenty-five (25) medications included in this test. By identifying these genetic variations, we can predict whether the resulting enzyme will be functional or not. Each enzyme is then categorized in terms of is level of activity, which can go from non-fonctional to ultra-rapid. PharmaQx offers its products and services in order to better inform healthcare professionals on the genetic backgound of its clients and the link between genetics and drug response. Do not change current and/or future therapies without first consulting your doctor. © BIOGENIQ INC. 1 DOES PHARMAQX PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT MY SUSCEPTIBILITY FOR DISEASES OR CONDITIONS? No. None of the genetic variations analyzed by PharmaQx have been convincingly associated with a disease or condition. WHAT TYPE OF ANALYSIS IS DONE? Your DNA is extracted from the saliva sample you provided. Then, we determine the presence of genetic variations using a technique called genotyping. Unlike DNA sequencing, which consists of "reading" each DNA unit (nucleotide) one after the other, genotyping only analyzes specific positions that are of interest to us. In other words, PharmaQx only offers information regarding the response to medication. WHAT ARE THE LIMITS OF PHARMAQX? Despite the fact that our tests are more than 99% accurate, there is always a small probability that an error may occur. The genetic variations analyzed by PharmaQx are known by the scientific community. It is possible that an individual carries a new variation, that has not yet been identified as being implicated in the response to medication. In this case, the PharmaQx analysis will not detect this rare variation and the individual could receive an inappropriate recommendation. It is also possible that other genes are also implicated in the response to medication but that are not included in PharmaQx. PharmaQx offers its products and services in order to better inform healthcare professionals on the genetic backgound of its clients and the link between genetics and drug response.

Study design: A double blind, double dummy, randomized, comparative study. Place and Duration of Study: Global Liver and Gastroenterology Centre, Bhopal, India, between March 2010 and October 2010. Methodology: A total of 100 patients were enrolled, including 50 with endoscopically and histologically proven gastritis and other 50 with peptic ulcer (over 5 mm in diameter). Each group was randomized to receive either lafutidine or rabeprazole tablet and their corresponding competitor placebo dummy tablet, for a period of 4 weeks. Gastritis/ulcer cure rates confirmed by endoscopic histology, symptom response and Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) eradication were compared among the two drugs Results: Complete cure of gastritis was observed in all the patients (100%) treated with lafutidine and 95.24% [20/21; 95% CI: 76.18 to 99.88%] patients treated with rabeprazole. Complete cure of ulcer was observed in 72.0% (18/25, 95% CI = 50.61 to 87.93%) and 79.16% (19/24, 95% CI = 57.85 to 92.87%) patients treated with lafutidine and rabeprazole respectively. There was no significant difference in gastritis/ulcer cure rate and symptom response rate between the two treatment groups at the end of the study.

  • Histamine H2-Receptor Antagonists Improve Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug-Induced Intestinal Dysbiosis
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article Histamine H2-Receptor Antagonists Improve Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug-Induced Intestinal Dysbiosis Rei Kawashima, Shun Tamaki, Fumitaka Kawakami, Tatsunori Maekawa and Takafumi Ichikawa * Department of Regulation Biochemistry, Kitasato University Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kanagawa 252-0374, Japan; [email protected] (R.K.); [email protected] (S.T.); [email protected] (F.K.); [email protected] (T.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-42-778-8863 Received: 8 October 2020; Accepted: 30 October 2020; Published: 31 October 2020 Abstract: Dysbiosis, an imbalance of intestinal flora, can cause serious conditions such as obesity, cancer, and psychoneurological disorders. One cause of dysbiosis is inflammation. Ulcerative enteritis is a side effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). To counteract this side effect, we proposed the concurrent use of histamine H2 receptor antagonists (H2RA), and we examined the effect on the intestinal flora. We generated a murine model of NSAID-induced intestinal mucosal injury, and we administered oral H2RA to the mice. We collected stool samples, compared the composition of intestinal flora using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism, and performed organic acid analysis using high-performance liquid chromatography. The intestinal flora analysis revealed that NSAID [indomethacin (IDM)] administration increased Erysipelotrichaceae and decreased Clostridiales but that both had improved with the concurrent administration of H2RA. Fecal levels of acetic, propionic, and n-butyric acids increased with IDM administration and decreased with the concurrent administration of H2RA. Although in NSAID-induced gastroenteritis the proportion of intestinal microorganisms changes, leading to the deterioration of the intestinal environment, concurrent administration of H2RA can normalize the intestinal flora.

W. Kwong2, Rui-Xia Yuan1,3, Hao Chen4, Chang Xu5, Yi-Pin Wang1, Gong-Li Yang6, Jin-Zhu Yan1, Le Peng1, Xian-Tao Zeng1, Hong Weng1, Jie Luo1 & Yu-Ming Niu1,6 Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and histamine-2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) are used for gastro- esophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, the clinical evidence for treatment is poor. We evaluated the effectiveness and tolerability of different doses of PPIs,2 H RAs and placebo in adults with GERD. Six online databases were searched through September 1, 2016. All related articles were included and combined with a Bayesian network meta-analysis from randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The GRADE systems were employed to assess the main outcome. Ninety-eight RCTs were identified, which included 45,964 participants. Our analysis indicated that the full/standard dose of esomeprazole at 40 mg per day was the most efficient in healing among nine different dosages of PPIs and2 H RAs. The main efficacy outcome did not change after adjustments for the area, age, level of disease from endoscopy, year of publication, pharmaceutical industry sponsorship, Intention-to-treat (ITT)/per-protocol (PP), withdrawal rate, pre-set select design bias, single blinded and unblinded studies, study origination in China, study arms that included zero events, inconsistency node or discontinued drug were accounted for in the meta-regressions and sensitivity analyses.

  • New and Future Drug Development for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
    J Neurogastroenterol Motil, Vol. 20 No. 1 January, 2014 pISSN: 2093-0879 eISSN: 2093-0887 http://dx.doi.org/10.5056/jnm.2014.20.1.6 JNM Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility Review New and Future Drug Development for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Carla Maradey-Romero and Ronnie Fass* The Esophageal and Swallowing Center, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, MetroHealth Medical Center, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA Medical therapy remains the most popular treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Whilst interest in drug devel- opment for GERD has declined over the last few years primarily due to the conversion of most proton pump inhibitor (PPI)’s to generic and over the counter compounds, there are still numerous areas of unmet needs in GERD. Drug development has been focused on potent histamine type 2 receptor antagonist’s, extended release PPI’s, PPI combination, potassium-competitive acid blockers, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation reducers, prokinetics, mucosal protectants and esophageal pain modulators. It is likely that the aforementioned compounds will be niched for specific areas of unmet need in GERD, rather than compete with the presently available anti-reflux therapies. (J Neurogastroenterol Motil 2014;20:6-16) Key Words Erosive esophagitis; Gastroesophageal reflux; Heartburn; Proton pump inhibitors Most patients with GERD fall into 1 of 3 categories: non- erosive reflux disease (NERD), erosive esophagitis (EE), and Introduction Barrett’s esophagus (BE). The 2 main phenotypes of GERD, Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common con- NERD and EE, appear to have different pathophysiological and dition that develops when reflux of stomach contents cause trou- clinical characteristics.
