Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:For the primary and secondary prevention of thromboembolic events are used the oral anticoagulants, the drugs having a low therapeutic index and frequent bleeding complication rate. Establishing the proper therapeutic dose of these drugs for different patients is complicated by a variety of conditions, such as the comorbidity, age, other drugs used, diet, and pharmacogenetic factors. One of the latters is the polymorphism of the cytochrome P450 CYP2C9 enzyme. AIM:The influence of CYP2C9 polymorphism on the effectiveness of the--in Hungary for oral anticoagulation exclusively used--acenocoumarol therapy and on the occurrence of bleeding complications was investigated. METHODS:Genotyping of 421 patients including 183 men and 238 women, (mean age 66.2 +/- 11.8 years) who took acenocoumarol (Syncumar) for at least 6 months was performed. Based on anamnestic and laboratory data, the correlation between the genotype and the acenocoumarol dose and bleeding complications were retrospectively analysed. RESULTS:The frequency-distribution for the CYP2C9*1, *2, and *3 alleles were found to be: 0.814, 0.110, and 0.076, respectively. In the 145 patients bearing the alleles with reduced activity (CYP2C9*2 and/or *3), the optimised dose of the acenocoumarol was significantly (p < 0.001) lower than in patients with the wild type allele (2.12 +/- 0.96 mg/day and 2.90 +/- 1.45 mg/day, respectively). Although the occurrence of minor bleeding complications in the former group was significantly (p < 0.005) higher [OR = 1.99 (CI: 1.20-3.33)], there was no difference in major bleeding complications. In patients taking an acenocoumarol dose lower than 2 mg/day, the occurrence of an INR value higher than 6 in the anamnesis was significantly (p < 0.05) more frequent. Evaluating separately the variant alleles we have concluded, that in the presence of allele *2 a lower acenocoumarol dose was required than in wild-type subjects, and even lower in the presence of allele *3. CONCLUSIONS:The frequency-distribution of the CYP2C9 alleles was as reported by others. In patients bearing alleles with reduced enzymatic activity, the occurrence of minor bleeding complications and the INR values higher than 6 were significantly more frequent. In patients with a lower acenocoumarol demand at the introduction of this therapy, a caution is required. In order to test the hypothesis that before the initiation of acenocoumarol therapy the determination of CYP2C9 polymorphism is cost-effective and could improve the optimization of anticoagulation and reduce the risk of bleeding complications a large prospective randomised trial is required.
