Influence of genetic, biological and pharmacological factors on warfarin dose in a Southern Brazilian population of European ancestry.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

To investigate the influence of polymorphisms in CYP2C9, VKORC1, CYP4F2 and F2 genes on warfarin dose-response and develop a model including genetic and non-genetic factors for warfarin dose prediction needed for each patient.

Methods

A total of 279 patients of European ancestry on warfarin medication were investigated. Genotypes for -1639G>A, 1173C>T, and 3730G>A SNPs in the VKORC1 gene, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3, 1347C>T in the CYP4F2 gene and 494C>T in the F2 gene were determined by allelic discrimination with Taqman 5'-nuclease assays.

Results

The CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 polymorphisms in the CYP2C9 gene, -1639G>A and 1173C>T in the VKORC1 gene and 494C>T in the F2 gene are responsible for lower anticoagulant doses. In contrast, 1347C>T in the CYP4F2 gene and 3730G>A in the VKORC1 gene are responsible for higher doses of warfarin. An algorithm including genetic, biological and pharmacological factors that explains 63.3% of warfarin dose variation was developed.

Conclusion

The model suggested has one of the highest coefficients of determination among those described in the literature.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P4502C9 (CYP2C9) plays a vital role in drug metabolism. There has been an increased effort to identify polymorphisms within the gene and determine their clinical consequences. However, most of these efforts have focused on populations of European descent. Herein we report the influence of CYP2C9 genotype on warfarin dose among European American and African American patients. We also identify two new mutations; one in the coding region and one in the non-coding region of the CYP2C9 gene. METHODS: Patients (?20 years of age) are enrolled after obtaining medical, lifestyle and concomitant medication history. Changes in International Normalized Ratio (INR), warfarin dose, co-medications, diet, physical activity and the occurrence of complications are documented. CYP2C9 genotype was determined using PCR-RFLP and pyrosequencing. Differences in genotype frequencies and HWE assumptions were assessed using ?(2) statistics and exact tests. The genotype dose association was evaluated using multivariable linear regression. RESULTS: This report includes 490 patients (mean age 60.6 ± 15.6, 51.3% men). African American patients comprise 48.9% of the cohort with mean follow-up of 13.5 (±10.6) months. Both the CYP2C9 *2 and *3 allele were more frequent in European Americans (11.24%, 5.1%) compared to African Americans (1.1% and 1.8%). CYP2C9 *5 (0.9%), *6 (0.4%), and *11 (1.1%) variants were only observed in African Americans. The variant genotype is more frequent among European Americans compared to African Americans (29.8% vs. 9.73%, p<0.0001). Warfarin dose was significantly related to CYP2C9 genotype (p<0.0001) both in univariate and multivariate analyses. Multivariable race-specific analyses highlight the contribution of CYP2C9 genotype among European American but not among African American patients. CONCLUSION: The variant CYP2C9 genotype is more frequent among European Americans compared to African Americans. Among African Americans the variant genotype frequency is higher than previously reported. CYP2C9 genotype predicts warfarin dose in European Americans, but not in African Americans.
