PURPOSE: As part of the 100,000 Genomes Project, we set out to assess the potential viability and clinical impact of reporting genetic variants associated with drug-induced toxicity for patients with cancer recruited for whole-genome sequencing (WGS) as part of a genomic medicine service. METHODS: Germline WGS from 76,805 participants was analyzed for pharmacogenetic (PGx) variants in four genes ( RESULTS: We identified clinically relevant PGx variants across the four genes in 62.7% of participants in our cohort. Extending this to annual prescription numbers in England for the drugs affected by these PGx variants, approximately 14,540 patients per year could potentially benefit from a reduced dose or alternative drug to reduce the risk of ADRs. Validating PGx associations in a real-world data set, we found a significant association between PGx variants in CONCLUSION: Reporting PGx variants from germline WGS relevant to patients with cancer alongside primary findings related to their cancer can be clinically informative, informing prescribing to reduce the risk of ADRs. Extending the range of actionable variants to those found in patients of non-European ancestry is important and will extend the potential clinical impact.
