G143E (rs71647871)Patrick et al., 2007; Zhu et al., 2008Methylphenidaten = 20 (with one carrier)Prospective studyThe study unexpectedly found one volunteer with elevated PK parameters of methylphenidate; Cmax of l-methylphenidate was 100-fold higher (62 ng/ml) compared with the rest of participantsThe later analysis found this volunteer had G143E and D260fs SNPs, which resulted in elevated plasma concentration of methylphenidate
Single dose of 0.3 mg/kgHealthy volunteersAim: to examine the interaction between methylphenidate and alcohol
Nemoda et al., 2009Methylphenidaten = 122 (with seven carriers)Retrospective studyG143E carriers needed lower doses of methylphenidate for symptom reduction compared with noncarriers (0.410 vs. 0.572 mg/kg, P = 0.022)G143E impaired methylphenidate metabolism in vivo
Dose adjusted based on symptom reduction × 1 moHungarian patients with ADHDOutcome: methylphenidate dose reduction
Stage et al., 2017aMethylphenidaten = 22 (with six carriers)Open labeled, prospective, PK studyG143E carriers showed 152.4% higher AUC (53.3 ng × ml−1 × h−1) compared with the noncarrier group (21.4 ng × ml−1 × h−1) (P < 0.0001)G143E carriers had higher exposure to methylphenidate compared with noncarriers

Lewis et al., 2013Clopidogreln = 506 (with seven carriers)Retrospective subanalysis of two clinical studies: 1) PAPI Study1) A 50% higher active metabolite concentration was observed in G143E carriers (n = 7, 30.3 ng/ml) compared with noncarriers (n = 499, 19.0 ng/ml) (P = 0.001)G143E carriers had higher plasma concentrations of clopidogrel active metabolites and consequently had a higher antiplatelet effect
1) Patients in PAPI received 300 mg loading dose (LD) with 75 mg maintenance dose (MD)n = 350 (with six carriers)2) Patients who were clopidogrel-treated at Sinai Hospital
2) Patients from Sinai Hospital received either 300 or 600 mg LD (n = 204) with MD, or just received 75 mg MDPatient going through percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)Outcome: 1) PK parameter: Clopidogrel and its active metabolite concentration 2) PD parameter: ADP-stimulated platelet aggregation2) The inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation effect was 24% higher in G143E carriers (reduced to 71% from baseline) compared with noncarriers (reduced to 57% from baseline) (P = 0.003)
Tarkiainen et al., 2015aClopidogreln = 22 (with 10 carriers)Prospective, PK/PD study1) AUC0–∞ ratios of the clopidogrel carboxylic acid to clopidogrel was 53% less in G143E carriers (P = 0.009)G143E carriers had higher exposure to clopidogrel active metabolite, and consequently had a higher antiplatelet aggregation effect
