1 Precision Medicine: Outlive Your Family History Disclosure I have commercial relationships with: Willard H. Dere MD FACP Professor of Internal Medicine June 21, 2018 Shareholder: Amgen, BioMarin, Eli Lilly Former employee: Amgen and Eli Lilly Board of Directors: BioMarin, Mersana Therapeutics, Radius Health, Seres Therapeutics Gaps in Knowledge, Competence, Performance, or Patient Outcomes Gaps in Knowledge, Competence, Performance, or Patient Outcomes Gap: Desired Result: Gap: Desired Result: Role of socio economic, genetic, and environmental influences on overall health are underestimated. Education about the potential ways in which genetic determinants of health can assist a physician in stratifying patients according to risk and implement early prevention or treatment interventions. Pharmacogenomics, resulting in substantial variability in drug levels and response, is not wellappreciated as relevant for appropriate use of medicines. Understand the potential value of pharmacogenomic testing for use of selected medicines. Gaps in Knowledge, Competence, Performance, or Patient Outcomes Gap: The role of genetics in identifying value drug targets is not wellappreciated. Desired Result: Understand the value of identifying gene variants that are thought to cause human disease and which may be valuable in drug discovery. Overview Overview of Health Determinants and Current Shortcomings Utah: UPDB, role of family history in identifying disease causing genes Precision Medicine: All of Us cohort and the multiple facets impacting human health Precision and Public Health: pathway to Precision Public Health Practical applications Pharmacogenomics Genetics and Risk stratification New therapies 1

2 Importance of Behavioral, Genetic, and Social Determinants of Health Schroeder, n engl j med 357;12 september 20, 2007 Where is the Value in Health Care Today? >75% of all U.S. Health Care Spending is Spent on Preventable Conditions ~30% of all U.S. Health Care Spending is Spent on Unnecessary Services Our therapeutic interventions do not provide a uniformly positive benefit risk profile What about efficacy? In randomized controlled clinical trials, 20% to 75% of enrolled participants do not respond to the active treatment. Adverse drug reactions account for up to 100,000 deaths annually in the US, and are the 6 th leading cause of hospitalizations. Spear, et al. Trends Mol Medicine 7: ,

3 Why Precision Medicine? Deeper understanding of genetics and biology: Human Genome Project, NGS, role of epigenetics and environment on phenotypic expression of disease and health Lack of efficacy or effectiveness of current interventions High risk of adverse reactions, particularly in certain patient subsets Inappropriate use of interventions Utah s Gift to the World AN OPPORTUNITY FOR UTAH TO ALLEVIATE GLOBAL SUFFERING THROUGH FAMILIES AND GENETIC SCIENCE Outlive Your Family History: How Utah Innovations Are Advancing Precision Medicine What is the Utah Population Database? World s largest medical genealogy archive founded by Utah leaders for the common good President Gordon B. Hinckley Utah Genealogical Society Governor Scott Matheson There are 100+ Million Unique Lives in the Utah Population Database. Use of the Utah Population Database is regulated by the Resource for Genetic Epidemiology that must approve all research projects with the help of the LDS Church. RESPONSIBLY STEWARDING UPDB DATA ZERO BREACHES How Genetic Discovery Alleviates Suffering Turning Discoveries into Preventions, Treatments and Cures He has his grandfather s nose, his mother s eyes, and his father s heart disease. 3

4 Personalized Health at the University of Utah The Right Patient should get the Right Intervention at the Right Time for the Right Cost. Why now? Precision Medicine Cohort: Overview and Data Flow The Genomic Testing Landscape is Growing Rapidly Differing views about PM Increasing number of genetic tests Across lifespan (preconception to adults) Across continuum (prevention treatment) Whole genome sequencing as tool in clinical and public health practice Increasing public awareness and interest Proliferation of direct to consumer genetic tests Adoption by some healthcare systems Precision Medicine Initiative (AllofUs) NIH Genetic Testing Registry Search January 25, 2018: tests, conditions, genes, and 509 labs 4

5 A Crucial Public Health Role is to Ensure Population Health Benefits of Genomics and Precision Medicine Khoury MJ, JAMA, Identifying applications that are supported by evidence for their use Assessing the population health impact of genomics and precision medicine o Quantifying burden of preventable disease o Assessing Impact of interventions in terms of lives saved, disease prevented or detected earlier o Quantifying and modeling healthcare costs and savings o Assessing barriers and facilitators to implementation o Documenting and addressing health disparities o Assessing Laboratory practice CDC Evidence based Classification of Genomics and Precision Medicine Applications Tiers Dotson WD, et al. Clin Pharmacol Ther Supported by a base of synthesized evidence for implementation in practice Synthesized evidence is insufficient to support routine implementation in practice; may provide information for informed decision making Evidence based recommendations against use, or no relevant synthesized evidence identified; not ready for routine implementation in practice Examples Newborn screening Many pharmacogenomic tests Direct to consumer personal genomic tests Evidence based Genomic Tests Are Available in Practice and Can Save Lives Now! 68 Tier 1 tests, more than half are cancer related 107 Tier 2 tests, many pharmacogenomics Information on guidelines, programs, publications and tools can be searched using the Public Health Genomics Knowledge Base (PHGKB) Intended uses across the lifespan include screening, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and risk assessment Weekly Update reaches ~70,000 subscribers Selected Tier 1 Genomic Applications Beyond Newborn Screening Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (BRCA1/2) Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Lynch Syndrome) Familial Hypercholesterolemia Collectively Affect ~2 Million People in US and Most Don t know it. Familial Hypercholesterolemia is Common and Undertreated in the United States Prevalence of documented statin and self reported lipid lowering medication use Young and uninsured patients are at the highest risk for under treatment We do an experiment in clinical pharmacology in every patient to whom we give a medicine Bucholz, EM et al.
