Abstrakt: Objective: Pilot study to assess utility in opioid use disorder (OUD) of a panel of single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes previously related to substance use disorder (SUD) and/or phenotypes that predispose individuals to OUD/SUD.
Design: Genetic association study.
Setting: West Virginia University's Chestnut Ridge Center Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Treatment (COAT) clinic for individuals diagnosed with OUD.
Patients: Sixty patients 18 years of age or older with OUD undergoing medication (buprenorphine/naloxone)-assisted treatment (MAT); all sixty patients recruited contributed samples for genetic analysis.
Outcome Measures: Minor allele frequencies for single nucleotide polymorphisms.
Results: Four of the fourteen single nucleotide polymorphisms examined were present at frequencies that are statistically significantly different than in a demographically-matched general population.
Conclusions: For the purposes of testing WV individuals via genetic means for predisposition to OUD, at least four single nucleotide polymorphisms in three genes are likely to have utility in predicting susceptibility. Additional studies with larger populations will need to be conducted to confirm these results before use in a clinical setting.
