Pharmacogenomically relevant markers of drug response and adverse drug reactions are known to vary in frequency across populations. We examined minor allele frequencies (MAFs), genetic diversity (F-ST) and population structure of 1156 genetic variants (including 42 clinically actionable variants) in 212 genes involved in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) in 19 populations (n=1478). There was wide population differentiation in these ADME variants, reflected in the range of mean MAF (Delta MAF) and F-ST. The largest mean Delta MAF was observed in African ancestry populations (0.10) and the smallest mean AMAF in East Asian ancestry populations (0.04). MAFs ranged widely, for example, from 0.93 for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9923231, which influences warfarin dosing to 0.01 for SNP rs3918290 associated with capecitabine metabolism. ADME genetic variants show marked variation between and within continental groupings of populations. Enlarging the scope of pharmacogenomics research to include multiple global populations can improve the evidence base for clinical translation to benefit all peoples.
