CYP2C9*2 is associated with indomethacin treatment failure for patent ductus arteriosus.

ABSTRACT: Aims: To identify clinical andgenetic factors associated with indomethacin treatment failure in preterm neonates with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Patients & Methods: This is a multicenter cohort study of 144 preterm infants (22-32 weeks gestational age) at three centers who received at least one treatment course of indomethacin for PDA. Indomethacin failure was defined as requiring subsequent surgical intervention. Results: In multivariate analysis, gestational age (AOR 0.76, 95% CI 0.60-0.96), surfactant use (AOR 9.77, 95% CI 1.15-83.26), and CYP2C9*2 (AOR 3.74; 95% CI 1.34-10.44) were each associated with indomethacin failure. Conclusion: Age, surfactant use, and CYP2C9*2 influence indomethacin treatment outcome in preterm infants with PDA. T
