Genetic variants associated with warfarin dose in African- American individuals: a genome-wide association study

TL;DR: A novel CYP2C single nucleotide polymorphism exerts a clinically relevant effect on warfarin dose in African Americans, independent of CYP 2C9*2 and CYP9*3, and incorporation of this variant into pharmacogenetic dosing algorithms could improve warFarin dose prediction in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulatory polymorphism in vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) affects gene expression and warfarin dose requirement.

TL;DR: A clinical association study demonstrated that promoter SNP -1639G>A, and the tightly linked intron1 SNP 1173C>T, predict warfarin dose more accurately than intron 2 SNP 1542G>C in blacks.
