Abstract
With the rapid development of sequencing technology, a large number of clinical cases with personalized medicine have been accumulated. Abundant evidence-based medical data have promoted the rapid development of pharmacogenomics. However, it could play an important role only if it would be deployed in clinical practice. There are two strategies for the clinical deployment of pharmacogenomics:reactive strategy and preemptive strategy. Different deployment strategies require different deployment processes. The specific implementation process involves the integration of EMR, selection of gene-drug pairs, cost-effectiveness, education and training, etc. This paper reviewed the strategies and implementation workflow of pharmacogenomics clinical deployment, and discussed the challenges so as to provide guidance for the clinicaldeployment of pharmacogenomics in China.
