Guideline-Driven PGx Testing: A new, targeted testing approach covering all AMP Tier 1 and Tier 2 pharmacogenomic recommendations.

Wednesday, November 12, 2025 | 12:00 – 12:50 PM EST
Room #159, Level 1

Dr. Jai Patel, Associate VP of Translational Research and Director of Cancer Pharmacology & Pharmacogenomics at Atrium Health Levine Cancer, and Dr. Vicky Pratt, past president of AMP, have been leading voices in pharmacogenomics—driving the adoption of standardized, guideline-driven testing across research laboratories.

Join them as they share insights on the development and implementation of the new VeriDose® Core v2.0 Panel, designed to align with all AMP Tier 1 and Tier 2 allele recommendations for genes including CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, TPMT, and NUDT15. Learn how this targeted approach supports standardized, scalable pharmacogenomics research on the MassARRAY® System.

Learning Objectives

  • Review AMP Tier 1 and Tier 2 pharmacogenomic recommendations.
  • See how the VeriDose® Core v2.0 PGx Panel standardizes allele coverage.
  • Explore implementation of PGx research workflows on the MassARRAY® System.
  • Discuss emerging trends in guideline-driven pharmacogenomics research.

An AMP Annual Meeting badge or Corporate Workshop Day badge is required to attend this workshop.

🔬  Most research panels test only 4 DPYD variants. In 2024, AMP recommended 13 as essential for pharmacogenomics research. The VeriDose® DPYD Plus Panel (RUO) covers all AMP Tier 1 & 2 variants plus 4 additional emerging markers. Access our pre-launch white paper in the comments ⬇️
