DPYD Genotyping Recommendations: A Joint Consensus Recommendation of the Association for Molecular Pathology, American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium, College of American Pathologists, Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group of the Royal Dutch Pharmacists Association, European Society for Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Therapy, Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase, and Pharmacogene Variation Consortium.

The goals of the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) Clinical Practice Committee's Pharmacogenomics (PGx) Working Group are to define the key attributes of pharmacogenetic alleles recommended for clinical testing and a minimum set of variants that should be included in clinical PGx genotyping assays. This document series provides recommendations for a minimum set of variant alleles (Tier 1) and an extended list of variant alleles (Tier 2) that will aid clinical laboratories when designing assays for PGx testing. The AMP PGx Working Group considered the functional impact of the variant alleles, allele frequencies in multiethnic populations, the availability of reference materials, and other technical considerations for PGx testing when developing these recommendations. The goal of this Working Group is to promote standardization of PGx testing across clinical laboratories. This document will focus on clinical DPYD PGx testing that may be applied to all DPD-related medications. These recommendations are not to be interpreted as prescriptive but to provide a reference guide.
