Pharmacy Podcast Network

Be sure to tune in to this episode of the Precision Health and PGX Podcast as Dr. Becky Winslow, and Dr. Angela Cassano, PharmFusion Founder and owner, discuss Dr. Cassano’s personal pharmacogenomics testing and how the results impacted her breast cancer treatment, the tamoxifen and CYP2D6 pharmacogenomics clinical utility research currently available, whether CYP2D6 testing for patients prior to tamoxifen is National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) recommended, and whether insurers in the United States reimburse the testing. This is a must listen for those interested in the clinical pharmacogenomics’ current landscape and a pharmacist-patient’s perspective about PGx testing.
