Pharmacogenetic studies in mood disorders are rapidly proliferating after the initial reports linking gene variants to treatment outcomes. However, a considerable range of methodologies has been used, making it difficult to compare results across studies and limiting the representativeness of findings. Specification of sampling source ( inpatients vs outpatients, primary vs tertiary settings), standardization of diagnostic systems and treatments, adequate monitoring of compliance through plasma levels, sufficient length of observation ( at least 6 weeks for acute antidepressant treatments, though 3-6 months are preferable), the use of a range of response criteria and the inclusion of possible environmental confounding variables ( life events, social support, temperament) are all potentially important issues when planning pharmacogenetic studies. We reviewed the state-of-the-art methodology and suggested possible guideline for future studies.
