description	Generate personalized treatment plans based on pharmacogenomics, variant interpretation, and patient-specific data. Integrates ClinPGx and ClinVar databases for evidence-based precision therapeutics.

Precision Medicine Treatment Planning

Generate personalized treatment plans driven by pharmacogenomics, somatic and germline variant interpretation, and patient-specific clinical data. This skill integrates the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) guidelines, ClinVar pathogenicity annotations, and PharmGKB drug-gene relationships to translate raw genomic data into actionable therapeutic recommendations.

What It Does

• Pharmacogenomic dosing guidance: Maps patient genotype results (e.g., CYP2D6 poor metabolizer, CYP2C19 rapid metabolizer) to CPIC-guideline dosing recommendations for over 400 drug-gene pairs
• Variant-to-therapy matching: Cross-references somatic tumor variants against FDA-approved companion diagnostics and NCCN-recommended targeted therapies (e.g., EGFR mutations to osimertinib, BRAF V600E to vemurafenib/cobimetinib)
• ClinVar and ClinPGx integration: Pulls current pathogenicity classifications and clinical significance annotations to contextualize genomic findings within treatment decisions
• Multi-drug interaction overlay: After selecting genotype-guided therapies, screens the resulting regimen for drug-drug interactions using pharmacogenomic metabolism data
• Structured treatment output: Produces treatment plans with gene-drug pairs, recommended dose adjustments, alternative agents, monitoring parameters, and supporting evidence citations

Clinical Use Cases

• Antidepressant selection: A psychiatrist orders pharmacogenomic testing for a patient with treatment-resistant depression. The skill interprets CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 results and recommends escitalopram dose reduction for ultra-rapid CYP2C19 metabolizers or suggests switching to a non-CYP2D6-dependent agent
• Oncology targeted therapy: A medical oncologist receives next-generation sequencing results showing an ALK rearrangement in a non-small cell lung cancer patient. The skill maps the variant to FDA-approved ALK inhibitors (crizotinib, alectinib, lorlatinib) with tier-level evidence annotations
• Cardiology: Clopidogrel response: A cardiologist considering dual antiplatelet therapy post-PCI uses the skill to check CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele status and recommends prasugrel or ticagrelor for intermediate/poor metabolizers per CPIC guidelines
• Pain management pharmacogenomics: Guides opioid selection by interpreting CYP2D6 status; flags codeine as contraindicated in ultra-rapid metabolizers due to rapid morphine conversion risk

Safety & Evidence

• Safety Classification: Caution — Genomic interpretation directly influences prescribing decisions. All recommendations must be validated by a qualified clinician before implementation. The skill flags variants of uncertain significance (VUS) distinctly from pathogenic/likely pathogenic findings and does not recommend treatment changes based on VUS alone.
• Evidence Level: High — Recommendations are grounded in CPIC guidelines (peer-reviewed, evidence-based), PharmGKB curated annotations, ClinVar submissions from expert clinical laboratories, and FDA pharmacogenomic labeling.

Example Usage

Pharmacogenomic dose adjustment:

Patient genotype: CYP2D6 *4/*4 (poor metabolizer)
Current medication: codeine 30mg Q4H PRN for pain
Recommend adjustment.

Result: CYP2D6 poor metabolizer status results in negligible conversion of codeine to its active metabolite morphine. Codeine will be ineffective for analgesia. CPIC guideline recommendation: avoid codeine entirely. Consider morphine, oxycodone (partially CYP2D6-dependent but has direct analgesic activity), or non-opioid alternatives based on pain severity.

Tumor variant therapy matching:

NGS results: BRAF V600E mutation detected in metastatic melanoma
No prior targeted therapy exposure
Recommend treatment options.

Result: BRAF V600E is an FDA-approved companion diagnostic biomarker. Recommended regimens: (1) Encorafenib + binimetinib (COLUMBUS trial, PFS 14.9 months); (2) Dabrafenib + trametinib (COMBI-d trial, PFS 11.0 months); (3) Vemurafenib + cobimetinib (coBRIM trial, PFS 12.3 months). Single-agent BRAF inhibitor monotherapy is not recommended due to inferior outcomes and rapid resistance via MAPK pathway reactivation.
