Physiogenomic method for predicting clinical outcomes of treatments in patients

摘要

A physiogenomics method for predicting an individual's response to an environmental stimulus comprises producing and recording a physiogenomic model. The model is produced b a method including selecting a plurality of genetic markers, identifying significant covariates among demographic data to produce correlated markers for use as a covariate in an unadjusted association test; performing for the plurality each selected genetic markers an unadjusted association test; using permutation testing to select a plurality of model building markers; identifying one or more genes not associated with a particular outcome in the individual to serve as a physiogenomic control; and presenting a display of the individual's predicted physiological response. One can then compare the genetic markers of the individual to the physiogenomic database and convey to the individual an appropriate treatment intervention.
