Term Standardization for Clinical Pharmacogenetic Test Results Project

CPIC has led an effort to standardize terms for clinical pharmacogenetic tests. The goal of the project was to create standardized terms to be used in CPIC guidelines (specifically Tables 1 and 2) and in the larger pharmacogenetics community. A list of phenotype term options based on an extensive literature review and scanning of sample laboratory reports was developed first. Refinement of the terms was performed using a modified Delphi method in the context of expert opinions.
