Article Abstract

Background: Nateglinide is a meglitinide used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Individual studies demonstrated the association of CYP2C9, SLCO1B1, and MTNR1B variants with the safety and efficacy of nateglinide. The current study aimed to develop a pharmacogenomic algorithm to optimize nateglinide therapy.

Methods: Multiple linear regression (MLR) and classification and regression tree (CART) were used to develop a pharmacogenomic algorithm for nateglinide dosing based on the published nateglinide pharmacokinetic data on the area under the curve data (AUC) and C (n = 143). CYP2C9 metabolizer phenotype, SLCO1B1, MTNR1B genotypes, and CYP2C9 inhibitor usage were used as the input variables. The results and associations were further confirmed by meta-analysis and in silico studies.

Results: The MLR models of AUC and C explain 87.4% and 59% variability in nateglinide pharmacokinetics. The Bland and Altman analysis of the nateglinide dose predicted by these two MLR models showed a bias of ± 26.28 mg/meal. The CART algorithm was proposed based on these findings. This model is further justified by the meta-analysis showing increased AUCs in CYP2C9 intermediate metabolizers and SLCOB1 TC and CC genotypes compared to the wild genotypes. The increased AUC in SLCO1B1 mutants is due to decreased binding affinity of nateglinide to the mutant affecting the influx of nateglinide into hepatocytes. MTNR1B rs10830963 G-allele-mediated poor response to nateglinide is attributed to increased transcriptional factor binding causing decreased insulin secretion.

Conclusion: CYP2C9, SLCO1B1, and MTNR1B genotyping help in optimizing nateglinide therapy based on this algorithm and ensuring safety and efficacy.

With the advancements of next-generation sequencing, publicly available pharmacogenomic datasets from cancer cell lines provide a handle for developing predictive models of drug responses and identifying associated biomarkers. However, many currently available predictive models are often just used as black boxes, lacking meaningful biological interpretations. In this study, we made use of open-source drug response data from cancer cell lines, in conjunction with KEGG pathway information, to develop sparse neural networks, K-net, enabling the prediction of drug response in EGFR signaling pathways and the identification of key biomarkers.

Pharmacogenomics is entering a transformative phase as high-throughput "omics" techniques become increasingly integrated with state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) methods. Although early successes in single-gene pharmacogenetics reported clear clinical benefits, many drug response phenotypes are governed by intricate networks of genomic variants, epigenetic modifications, and metabolic pathways. Multi-omics approaches address this complexity by capturing genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic data layers, offering a comprehensive view of patient-specific biology.
