Pharmacogenetic (PGx) guidelines for the precise dosing and selection of drugs remain\npoorly implemented in current clinical practice. Among the barriers to the implementation process\nis the lack of clinical decision support system (CDSS) tools to aid health providers in managing\nPGx information in the clinical context. The present study aimed to describe the first Italian\nendeavor to develop a PGx CDSS, called FARMAPRICE. FARMAPRICE prototype was conceived\nfor integration of patient molecular data into the clinical prescription process in the Italian Centro\ndi Riferimento Oncologico (CRO)-Aviano Hospital. It was developed through a coordinated\npartnership between two high-tech companies active in the computerization of the Italian\nhealthcare system. Introducing FARMAPRICE into the clinical setting can aid physicians in\nprescribing the most efficacious and cost-effective pharmacological therapy available.
