METHOD FOR TREATMENT WITH BUCINDOLOL BASED ON GENETIC TARGETING

摘要

The present invention concerns the use of methods for evaluating bucindolol treatment for a patient, particularly one with heart failure. It concerns methods for determining whether to administer or prescribe bucindolol to a patient based on whether the patient is homozygous for the Arg 389 polymorphism in the ß1-adrenergic receptor (AR).
