Ancillary Pharmacogenetic Studies in Heart,
Lung, Blood, and Sleep Disorders
This program focuses on the collection and utilization
of DNA from study participants, in ongoing or completed
clinical trials, to examine genetic influences on inter-individual
differences in prescription drug response. Studies under
this RFA may help elucidate basic mechanisms of drug
effects and adverse reactions and may facilitate optimal
selection of therapy in individual patients as well
as mitigating serious adverse response or lack or response
to therapy in the treatment of heart, lung, blood, and
sleep disorders. Currently, NHLBI is funding seven studies
through this mechanism.
The NHLBI Program Officer for Ancillary Pharmacogenetic
Studies is Dina
Paltoo, Ph.D., M.P.H.
