The support of human genetic evidence for approved drug indications

Matthew Nelson and colleagues investigate how well genetic evidence for disease susceptibility predicts drug mechanisms. They find a correlation between gene products that are successful drug targets and genetic loci associated with the disease treated by the drug and predict that selecting genetica...
