  1. Genes reaching nominal association p-value below 0.05 are highlighted in bold.
  2. “Y” (meaning “yes”) indicates that a gene is targeted by the drug, while “N” (meaning “no”) indicates that a gene is not targeted by the drug. “Chr” refers to the number of a chromosome where the gene of interest is located. “Start” and “End” refer to base pair location of genes of interest.
