Indications for Testing Clinical Sensitivity
-Patients candidate for or undergoing drug therapy with
Estimated at 99 and 87 percent in Asians and
drugs metabolized by the CYP2C19 isoenzyme;
Caucasians respectively, based on the prevalence of
- Patients with personal or family history positive for
pathogenic allelic variants detected; sensitivity is

Analytical Sensitivity and Specificity
In particular, the test may be indicated if the following

-Clopidogrel (Plavix®)(see “CMGDL Clopidogrel Test Limitations
Sensitivity Genotyping assay”, test code 4101)
