6 Numerous biorepositories springing up in hospital systems across country Unclear if samples, data, consent adequate for genomic research and data sharing No community-wide standards or best practices for conducting such research No genomic or genetic research using EMRdefined phenotypes is this even possible? Develop approaches for potential large-scale US study using EMR-defined outcomes

28 EMR-Defined Phenotypes for Adverse Reactions to Drugs Thrombocytopenia > 2 platelet counts < 150K/ul Suspect drugs received within 30d before or 3d after low counts Drugs: anticoagulant, antiplatet, statin Neutropenia ANC < cells/ul Drugs: antithyroid, macrolides Drug-Induced Liver Injury Under development Courtey, C. Chute

29 Privacy Threats in EMR Data Unusual diagnosis codes or combinations of codes may permit attacker with access to individual s EMR to identify their genomic data Mitigate risk by modifying codes so clinical profiles can only be linked to groups of pts: Generalizing codes within ICD coding hierarchy (cancer of head, body or tail of pancreas) while maintaining utility of data Suppressing codes that can t be generalized Limiting to disease codes useful for GWA studies reduces risk further, though can t foresee all GWA uses Loukides G et al., PNAS 2010; 107:
