The CYP4503A5*1 genotype is associated with lower tacrolimus concentrations. Although its effect is important, it incompletely explains the variability in tacrolimus concentrations and has a relatively low minor allele frequency in Caucasians relative to African Americans (AA). We studied clinical and recipient genetic correlates of dose-normalized tacrolimus troughs (n=12,277) in the first 6 months posttransplant using a customized single nucleotide polymorphism chip with 2,722 variants in a large, ethnically diverse (144 AA and 551 non-AA) adult kidney transplant population through a 7-center consortium. Over the 6 month study, AAs had consistently lower median (interquartile range) troughs than non-AAs, 6.2 (4.4–8.4) vs 8.3 (6.4–10.4) ng/mL (p<0.0001), in spite of 60% higher daily doses, 8 vs 5 mg (p<0.0001). The median tacrolimus trough concentration in week one posttransplant was particularly low in AAs [2.1 (1.2–3.5)] compared to non-AAs [5.0 (3.1–8.2) ng/mL](p<0.0001) despite similar initial doses. In single variant analysis, CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) was the top variant (p=2.4x10−33) associated with troughs. After adjustment for CYP3A5*3, clinical factors and race, thirty-nine additional variants were identified (p<0.01, not significant at FDR 20%). In the final multivariant, regression models beginning with these variants and clinical factors, 7 variants were identified in the non-AA and 7 variants in the AA group towards the first trough concentrations. Rs776746 (CYP3A5), rs2239393 (COMT) and diabetes were the only factors common in both populations. We identified variants beyond CYP3A5*3 which may further explain pharmacokinetic variability of tacrolimus and demonstrated that important variants differ by race.
