Abstract Background: The latest studies have shown the effectiveness of Chloroquine against Coronavirus. However, since the tolerance and effectiveness of statistical data must be taken into account before proposing treatment to a patient, these promising results are often lacking.Since the CYP2C8, CYP2D6 and CYP3A Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism and Elimination (ADME) genes are involved in the drug response of Chloroquine, we are interested in studying the variations of these genes.Methods: The purpose of this study is to make a comparison between the various current genotyping and enrichment platforms, to know which of them allows the best coverage. Conclusions: This will allow us to carry out genome-wide association studies (GWAS) with the aim of finding new therapeutic targets against Coronavirus using Chloroquine.

Since the term “pharmacogenetics” was first published in the late 1950s by Friedrich Vogel, the field has evolved into genome-wide association studies identifying novel variants associated with drug response phenotypes, international societies and consortia dedicated to pharmacogenomic research and clinical implementation, clinical practice guidelines, and the increasing availability of pharmacogenomic tests for healthcare providers in both hospital and primary care [...]
