Table 1. Classification criteria used to identify off-target pharmacogenetic variants from the PharmGKB database.

Step Filter Number variants
1 Exclude synonymous and non-coding variants 561
2 Include variants that have type:toxicity/ADR 339
3 For drug and gene pairs, exclude variants with additional effect types other than Toxicity/ADR 273
4 Gene containing variant is NOT an ADME process gene OR annotated in GO with ‘xenobiotic metabolic process’ OR ‘transporter’ 196
5* Variant not containing an entry in clinVAR 142

*

For 30 variants used as a truth set, we performed an additional detailed literature search to definitively classify each variant as type A or type B.
