To investigate the causes of death, to examine carefully the condition of organs, after such changes have gone on in them as to render existence impossible and to apply such knowledge to the prevention and treatment of disease, is one of the highest objects of the physician.—Sir William Osler (1849–1919)Extracted from his Graduation thesis “Pathologic Anatomy”

Confidentiality and Privacy
•Confidentiality- the principle in medical ethics that the information a patient reveals to a health care provider is private and has limits on how and when it can be disclosed to a third party
•Privacy - culturally specific concept defining the extent, timing, and circumstances of sharing oneself
•Physical•Behavioral•Medical
![Page 16: How a Hospital Biobank Supports Patient Care and Research Programs](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051419/56815d54550346895dcb5d44/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Identification of Specimens
• Anonymous- the sample was collected without the identity of the donor
• Anonymized – the sample was collected with the known identity, but the identification was removed
• Coded (Linked) – the sample is given a unique identifier that cannot be easily deciphered
• Identified – the sample has a common identifier (name, hospital number)
![Page 17: How a Hospital Biobank Supports Patient Care and Research Programs](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051419/56815d54550346895dcb5d44/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Personalized (Precision) Molecular Medicine

The Path to Clinical Implementation from Translational Research
•Analytical validity - Technical feasibility and optimization – does the test measure what we say?
•Clinical validity – Diagnostic accuracy - does the test measure a value associated with a clinical condition?
•Sensitivity (false negatives)•Specificity (false positives)
•Clinical utility •will the test improve making a healthcare decision?•Will the test be cost effective?

Pharmacokinetics: What the Body Does to the Drug
•Absorption – substance enters the body
•Distribution – drug disperses to fluids and tissues
•Metabolism – transform parent compound into daughter compounds
•Excretion – elimination of parent drug and daughter compounds from the body
![Page 33: How a Hospital Biobank Supports Patient Care and Research Programs](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051419/56815d54550346895dcb5d44/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Pharmacokinetic Metabolism: transform parent compound into daughter
metabolites
•Parent compounds are converted to metabolites that are more water soluble so they can be more easily excreted
•Bioactivation: Prodrugs are converted into therapeutically active compounds

CYP2D6 and Tamoxifen
•At least 70 CYP2D6 allelic variants•Reduced activity of CYP2D6
→ reduced metabolism of tamoxifen → poor response to tamoxifen
•Classification of alleles•Poor metabolizers• Intermediate metabolizers•Extensive metabolizers•Ultrarapid metabolizers
•Ethnic variation – •CYP2D6*4 – poor metabolizer
• 12% - 21% Northern Europeans• 1% - 2% Asians and Black Africans
•CYP2D6*10 – intermediate metabolizer• Most common allele in Asians

Side effects of Tamoxifen and Treatment with Antidepressants
•Hot flashes most common side effect•Treated with antidepressants:
•SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)•Inhibit CYP2D6 activity•Potent inhibitors (paroxetene, fluoxetine) reduce endoxifen levels
•Less potent inhibitors (venlafaxine) have little effect•Patients with decreased metabolism:
•Shorter time to recurrence•Worse relapse-free survival
•Potent CYP2D6 inhibitors such as certain SSRIs are contraindicated in tamoxifen-treated patients
![Page 41: How a Hospital Biobank Supports Patient Care and Research Programs](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051419/56815d54550346895dcb5d44/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
CYP2D6 Poor Metabolizers
•Patients diagnosed with breast cancer should be treated with alternatives to tamoxifen (e.g. aromatase inhibitors)
•For breast cancer prevention, raloxifene is a viable alternative to tamoxifen

NGS Technology
All NGS technologies offer the ability to simultaneously sequence thousands to millions of relatively short nucleic acid sequences in parallel. They can provide orders of magnitude more information, at competitive costs, when large regions of the genome are sequenced.
![Page 45: How a Hospital Biobank Supports Patient Care and Research Programs](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051419/56815d54550346895dcb5d44/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
This report of the Whole Genome Analysis group of the Association for Molecular Pathology illuminates the opportunities and challenges associated with clinical diagnostic genome sequencing. With the reality of clinical application of next-generation sequencing, technical aspects of molecular testing can be accomplished at greater speed and with higher volume, while much information is obtained. Although this testing is a next logical step for molecular pathology laboratories, the potential impact on the diagnostic process and clinical correlations is extraordinary and clinical interpretation will be challenging. We review the rapidly evolving technologies; provide application examples; discuss aspects of clinical utility, ethics, and consent; and address the analytic, postanalytic, and professional implications.
