All of Us Study Identifies New Genetic Variants in Drug Responses

Genetic research in a laboratory setting

A study of nearly 100,000 Americans identified thousands of new variants in genes that influence responses to prescription drugs. This research benefited from a more diverse set of ancestries than previous pharmacogene studies.

Using data from the National Institute of Health’s All of Us program, researchers found that every participant carried at least one variant in the 16 pharmacogenes studied. Additionally, one in four participants had taken a medication that could be affected by these variants.
