Summary: Inter-subject variability in therapeutic drug response and drug toxicity is a major problem in clinical practice. In this field genetic polymorphisms of drug metabolizing enzymes play an important role. In a multicenter study supported by the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM, Z 12.01-68502-201) adverse drug reactions (ADRs) leading to hospital admission to departments of internal medicine have been registered and evaluated. The aim of the presented part of the study was to look for evident differences in genotypes for polymorphic drug metabolizing enzymes between adverse drug reaction cases and controls. All cases found in the local area – Jena and Weimar – were genotyped for N-acetyl-transferase 2 (NAT2), cytochrom P450 (CYP) 2D6 and 2C19 in comparison to a control population of the same region. The investigation on genotype was carried out for about 2 years (2000–2002). 254 blood samples from patients of the ADR study were analyzed. The genotype of drug metabolizing enzymes was determined by means of polymerase chain reaction using allel specific primers or restriction enzyme analysis. Within all ADRs cases genotyped, no exceptional frequencies for slow acetylators or poor metabolizers (PM) of CYP2D6 or CYP2C19 were found. About 65% of the individuals with ADR genotypically displayed a slow acetylator state. 6.3% PM for CYP2D6, including CYP2D6*3, *4 and *6 alleles, and 2.0% PM frequency for CYP2C19 (*2) have been found in ADR cases. A direct connection between PM genotype and the ADR observed may be assumed only in few of them. Further investigations on genotype and ADR-associated drugs require a much larger sample of patients to obtain more data allowing to focus an association on specific drugs, ADR and polymorphisms genotype of drug metabolizing enzymes might be useful.
