• NHLBI TOPMed: Pharmacogenomics of Hydroxyurea in Sickle Cell Disease (PharmHU)

  Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by the presence of sickle hemoglobin (HbS) within circulating erythrocytes resulting in hemolytic anemia, vascular occlusion, and end organ damage due to alterations in the shape and deformability of the cell membrane. The disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, and is most commonly caused by a single nucleotide substitution in the hemoglobin subunit beta (HBB) gene located on chromosome 11. Participants in this study include children with SCD treated with hydroxyurea to pharmacologically increase fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels and reduce disease severity. Therefore, the primary phenotype of interest in this study is the change in HbF levels in response to hydroxyurea treatment. Genetic factors have been shown to influence inter-individual variation in drug response, and identification of novel genes and variants associated with clinical outcomes in SCD will be achieved through collaboration between Baylor College of Medicine, Augusta University, Columbia University Medical Center, Emory University School of Medicine and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The NHLBI TOPMed Program is designed to generate scientific resources to enhance understanding of fundamental biological processes that underlie heart, lung, blood and sleep disorders (HLBS). It is part of a broader Precision Medicine Initiative, which aims to provide disease treatments that are tailored to an individual's unique genes and environment.

• INdiana GENomics: Implementing an Opportunity for the Under Served (INGENIOUS)

  The INGenious trial planed to enroll a total of 6,000 patients, with 2,000 patients assigned to a pharmacogenetic testing arm and 4,000 to a control arm who will be followed, but not tested. It is randomized between an intervention arm and one that receives no intervention in order that the genotyped group can be compared with one in which undisturbed, routine clinical care is carried out in patients taking the same drugs. Both arms will be followed for a year after being prescribed a targeted medication. Patients randomized into the intervention arm that are prescribed one or more of the 27 targeted index medication will receive pharmacogenomic testing using a custom micro-array measuring 43 Single nucleotide polymorphisms in 14 genes. The study is being conducted by the Indiana University School of Medicine and the Indiana University Institute of Personalized Medicine in collaboration with the Eskenazi and Indiana University Health Systems and will evaluate the economic and clinical outcomes associated with embedding a pharmacogenomics program in a system that serves as the primary health care safety-net in Indianapolis, Indiana. By successfully implementing a pharmacogenomics program and integrating it with the Electronic Health Record and Clinical Decision Support system, physicians will be able to optimize patient care by delivering tailored therapeutic decisions based on the patient's individual genetics.

• Whole exome sequencing in multiplex cleft families from a consortium

  Building upon our previous linkage and association studies, we will use whole exome sequencing studies of second and third degree affected relatives drawn from multiplex families. Our specific aims are: 1) To conduct whole exome sequencing on affected members (2° and 3° relatives) drawn from multiplex cleft families from a consortium to identify novel genes causing non-syndromic oral clefts; 2) To confirm and test the role of rare variants in these novel genes through confirmatory Sanger sequencing, plus linkage information using additional members available in these multiplex families. This whole exome sequencing approach will combine evidence from linkage studies and large scale sequencing to identify novel genes causing oral clefts in multiplex cleft families.

• LifeChange Data Access Committee

  The LifeChange study aimed at tracking the biological consequences of the societal changes undergone by the Yakut people of Far Eastern Siberia, after the colonization of the region by Russians in the 17th century. This study builds upon more than 15 years of archaeological research conducted in Yakutia, Sakha Republic, an autonomous region of the Russian Federation located in northeastern Siberia. The fieldwork was conducted under the MAFSO program (“Mission Archéologique Française en Sibérie Orientale”, or “French Archaeological Mission in Eastern Siberia”), a collaboration between French researchers and local Yakut experts, including scholars from North-Eastern Federal University in Yakutsk. The program was supported by several inter-university collaborative research agreements, notably between Université Paul Sabatier, Krasnoyarsk State Medical University, and North-Eastern Federal University in Yakutsk. It also received endorsement from the Institute of Ecology and Evolution at CNRS through the International Associated Laboratory “Co-evolution Human-Environment in Eastern Siberia”. The LifeChange Data Access Committee, composed of French and Russian archaeogeneticists, geneticists and archaeologists, reviews any access request to LifeChange data, consisting of genomes of ancient and modern Yakut, Eveni and Evenki individuals sampled in Eastern Siberia for the LifeChange study. The DAC grants access to any academic researcher aiming to study the population history of autochthonous peoples from Siberia. When reviewing data access requests, the DAC members ensure that the applicant will not re-use the data to trace present-day descendants of studied ancient individuals. They also ensure that secondary use of the modern genomic data is conducted in full respect of the conditions stipulated in living participants’ informed consent. Specifically, the applicant is not authorised to (i) use the data for diagnostic purposes, (ii) store the data outside of secure servers, (iii) reidentify research participants, and (iv) share the data with a third party.
