Methods and compositions for the assessment of drug response

摘要

The present invention provides methods for predicting or determining a subject's response to an antiplatelet agent, and methods for determining a subject's suitability to a treatment regime or intervention for a disease associated with platelet aggregation, using analysis of genetic polymorphisms. The present invention also relates to the use of genetic polymorphisms in assessing a subject's response to an antiplatelet agent. Nucleotide probes and primers, kits, and microarrays suitable for such assessment are also provided.
