Overview of studies pertaining to antipsychotic-induced movement disorders

Gene Polymorphism(s) Design, treatment duration Medication (n) Sample [diagnosis; n (m/f); ethnicity] Main findings
CYP2D6 EM/UM, IM, PM meta-analysis primarily FGAs SCZ spectrum disorder; association of TD with CYP2D6, n = 1,482 (all studies); n = 336 (prospective); Caucasian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese analysis of prospective studies showed significant associations between TD and CYP2D6 when comparing wt/wt genotypes with wt/mut and mut/mut + mut/wt (p = 0.008 and p = 0.02, respectively) [124]

CYP2D6 CYP2D6*1, *41, *3, *4, *5, *1xn, *2xn cross-sectional ≥12 months FGAs; equivalent ≥100 mg chlorpromazine daily SCZ; n = 66; European-Caucasian significant association between a greater ability to metabolize CYP2D6, as measured by increasing number of functional alleles, and tardive dyskinesia (χ2 = 7.65, d.f. = 1, p = 0.006) [125]

CYP2D6 CYP2D6*1, *3, *4, *10, *41, *1xn, *2xn clinical trial 8 days risperidone (50) SCZ (43), SA (7); n = 50 (39/11); Caucasian indirect association suggesting that PMs and IMs experienced a higher occurrence of EPS in response to risperidone [128]

risperidone (25)
healthy volunteers, n = 25 (17/8); PMs, n = 8; EMs, n = 10; UMs, n = 7; Caucasian metabolizer status associated with differences in ‘EPS’ (measured as wakefulness activity by actigraphy) [126, 127]

CYP2D6 unclear cross-sectional unclear SCZ (CATIE subsample); n = 710 (524/186) nonsignificant [129]
CYP2D6 *1, *3, *4, *5, *6, *2xN retrospective 8 weeks risperidone (83) first-episode SCZ, drug-naïve; n = 83 (17/66) nonsignificant [130]
CYP2D6 *1,*2,*4,*5,*6B, *10B, *17, *29, *35, *41, *43, *106 naturalistic cohort risperidone (25) multiple diagnoses (unstated); n = 24 (16/8); South-African Black (9), White (15) nonsignificant [131]
DPP6 rs6977820 discovery: GWAS replication: cohort various SCZ, discovery, TD, n = 61 (35/26); non-TD, n = 61 (35/26); replication, TD, n = 36 (18/18); non-TD, n = 136 (88/50); all Japanese discovery: p = 7.0 × 10–6 (< reach genome-wide significance); significant association in replication sample: p = 0.008 (after correction for multiple testing); combined: p = 4.6 × 10–6 [149]

DRD2 rs6277, rs1800497 (Taq1A); rs1800498 (Taq1D); rs1799732 (–141CIns/Del) cross-sectional ≥1 month FGAs (37)
SGAs (303)

SCZ (277), SA (55), other PDs (70); n = 401; relatively young (median age = 26 years) Caucasian sample association of Taq1A with TD nonsignificant, though this variant was significantly associated with akathisia (p = 0.001); the −141C variant was significantly associated with TD (p = 0.001) [139]

DRD2 rs6275, rs1800497 (Taq1A) rs1800498 rs1801028 cross-sectional at least 3 months unclear SCZ; n = 263 (140/123); Korean nonsignificant [139]

HSPG2 rs2445142 (G/A) discovery: GWAS replication: cohort various SCZ, discovery, n = 50 TD, n = 50 non-TD; replication, n = 36 TD (18/18), n = 136 non-TD (88/50); all Japanese nominally significant association with TD attained in genome-wide and replication samples (p = 0.001 and p = 0.002, respectively); combined p = 2.0 × 10−5 [145]

HSPG2 rs2445142 (G/A) rs878949 (surrogate; r2= 1) CATIE: prospective Jewish: cross-sectional ≥3 months various Jewish-Israeli sample, n = 166 (89/77); CATIE subsample, n = 179 (147/32); European-Caucasian nominal significant association identified between rs2445142 (or rs878949 as a surrogate) in both samples (p = 0.003 and p = 0.039, respectively), with the G allele being the risk allele [146]

HSPG2 rs2445142, rs2270697 prospective unclear most SCZ, PD, or other; n = 168; Caucasian nonsignificant, including rs2445142 [147]

SLC18A2 rs2015586 cross-sectional unclear SCZ (CATIE subsample); n = 710 (524/186); 56% European-American p = 9.858 × 10−5; result is nonsignificant at genome-wide significance of 5.0 × 10−8 [129]

SLC18A2 and DRD2 SLC18A2: rs2015586, rs363224 DRD2: rs6277 retrospective variable durations various SCZ or SCZ spectrum disorder; n = 223; Caucasian (193), African-American (30) gene-gene interaction involving C allele of rs363224 and the C allele of rs6277 was significantly associated with AIMS scores (p = 0.001); nominal association involving rs2015586 [140]

AIMS = Abnormal Involuntary Movements Scale; mut = mutant; PD = psychotic disorder; RCT = randomized controlled trial; SA = schizoaffective disorder; UM = ultrarapid metabolizer; wt = wild type.
