GENomE wide analysis of sotalol-induced IKr inhibition during ventricular REPOLarization, "GENEREPOL study": Lack of common variants with large effect sizes. by Joe-Elie Salem, Marine Germain, Jean-Sébastien Hulot, Pascal Voiriot, Bruno Lebourgeois, Jean Waldura, David-Alexandre Tregouet, Beny Charbit, Christian Funck-Brentano

“…Many drugs used for non-cardiovascular and cardiovascular purposes, such as sotalol, have the side effect of prolonging cardiac repolarization, which can trigger life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias by inhibiting the potassium-channel IKr (KCNH2). On the electrocardiogram (ECG), IKr inhibition induces an increase in QTc and Tpeak-Tend (TpTe) interval and a decrease of T wave maximal amplitude (TAmp). …”
