Brief summary

The investigators will prospectively follow a population of patients with uncontrolled high blood pressure beginning metoprolol succinate therapy to determine the drug effect in an observational clinical trial. The investigators will determine each individual's genotype for both CYP2D6 and Adrenoceptor Beta 1 (ADRB1). Metabolomic markers will be identified to determine if specific metabolites are associated with drug response. The investigators' overall objective is to determine if genetics predicts metoprolol succinate response better than clinical factors such as age, race, body mass index, dose, and medication co-ingestion.

Interventions

DRUGmetoprolol succinate
GENETICGenotyping

CYP2D6 only clinically pertinent pathway of metoprolol metabolism and polymorphisms have been associated with altered levels of metoprolol. ADRB1 is the drug target and polymorphism in this receptor has been associated with variable drug response. Genotyping will occur after the treatment phase is complete. Thus the investigator, the subject, and the outcomes investigator will be blind to the intervention.

PROCEDURECYP2D6 Phenotyping

Phenotype can be discordant from what is predicted by genotype due to variability in absorption, hepatic blood flow, drug interaction and drug elimination. These factors can be accounted for by utilizing a phenotyping assay that determines area under the curve of the probe since the probe is affected by the same variables dictating metabolism phenotype of the therapeutic drug. Investigators will be blind to the patient blood pressure outcome for this intervention.

Metoprolol Succinate, Genotyping, Clinical Factors, and Phenotyping
The parent study will integrate covariates to predict metoprolol effectiveness for SBP decline of 10%. All patients will receive metoprolol. The following covariates will be used to predict metoprolol effectiveness: clinical variables (Age, sex, race/ethnicity, co-medications, and BMI) CYP2D6 genotype, CYP2D6 phenotype, and metabolomic factors. metoprolol succinate Genotyping: CYP2D6 only clinically pertinent pathway of metoprolol metabolism and polymorphisms have been associated with altered levels of metoprolol. ADRB1 is the drug target and polymorphism in this receptor has been associated with variable drug response. Genotyping will occur after the treatment phase is complete. CYP2D6 Phenotyping: Phenotype can be discordant from what is predicted by genotype. CYP2D6 henotyping using dextromethorphan will be used. Investigators will be blind to the patient blood pressure outcome for this intervention.
