CYP2C19*2 and Other Allelic Variants Affecting Platelet Response to Clopidogrel Tested by Thrombelastography in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the contributions of CYP2C19 polymorphisms to the various clopidogrel responses tested by thrombelastography (TEG) in Chinese patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Patients were screened prospectively with ACS diagnose and were treated with clopidogrel and aspirin dual antiplatelet therapy. CYP2C19 loss of function (LOF) and gain of function (GOF) genotype, adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP)-channel platelet inhibition rate (PIR) tested by TEG and the occurrence of 3-month major adverse cardiovascular events and ischemic events were assessed in 116 patients.High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) prevalence defined by PIR <30% by TEG in ADP-channel was 32.76% (38/116). With respect to the normal wild type, CYP2C19*2, and *3 LOF alleles, and *17 GOF alleles, patients were classified into three metabolism phenotypes: 41.38% were extensive metabolizers (EMs), 56.90% were intermediate metabolizers (IMs), and 1.72% were poor metabolizers (PMs). Of the enrolled patients, 31.47%, 5.17%, and 0.43%, respectively, were carriers of *2, *3, and *17 alleles. The HTPR incidence differed significantly according to CYP2C19 genotypes, accounting for 18.75%, 41.54%, and 100.00% in EMs, IMs, and PMs, respectively. Eighteen (17.24%) ischemic events occurred during the 3-month follow-up, and there was a significant difference in ischemic events between HTPR group and nonhigh on-treatment platelet reactivity group.Genetic CYP2C19 polymorphisms are relative to the inferior, the antiplatelet activity after clopidogrel admission and may increase the incidence of ischemic events in patients with ACS.

Project description:IntroductionTrinidad & Tobago has the highest prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the Caribbean and clopidogrel is a ubiquitously used treatment. Yet, the extent of genetically mediated clopidogrel resistance is unknown. To determine this, we investigated whether the association between CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3 genetic variants and clopidogrel resistance holds, and calculated the frequencies of these in the Trinidadian CVD population.MethodsDemographic data, clinical data, and a saliva sample were collected under informed consent from 22 patients with CVD on dual anti-platelet therapy whose biochemical resistance to clopidogrel is known, and a further 162 patients accessing the main public CVD clinic in Trinidad and who are either currently being treated or are likely to be treated with clopidogrel. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction enzyme digestion procedure was used to genotype each patient for the CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3 allelic variants. Genotype was compared to known clopidogrel resistance in the 22 patients, and to disease status and clopidogrel usage in the larger cohort.ResultsCYP2C19*2 genotype was concordant with clopidogrel resistance. CYP2C19*2 was detected in 61.1% (99/162) of patients and CYP2C19*3 was undetected. Clopidogrel was the most prescribed antiplatelet therapy (42%). A total of 120 people presented with coronary artery disease (CAD) and 52.5% of these (n = 63/120) are currently prescribed clopidogrel. 63.5% (40/63) of patients with CAD who are prescribed clopidogrel carry the CYP2C19*2 allele; ten homozygous and 30 heterozygous. Indian patients comprised 65% of the cohort and were four times more likely to carry the CYP2C19*2 allele than African patients.ConclusionsA large proportion of Trinidadian patients with CVD who are prescribed or may be prescribed clopidogrel carry genetic variants associated with clopidogrel resistance. These results emphasize the clinical need for further investigation into whether CYP2C19*2 genotype should guide clopidogrel use for the cardiovascular disease population in Trinidad & Tobago.
