Impact of ABCC2 1249G>A and -24C>T Polymorphisms on Lacosamide Efficacy and Plasma Concentrations in Uygur Pediatric Patients With Epilepsy in China.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We aimed to evaluate the effect of the ABCC2 1249G>A (rs2273697) and -24C>T (rs717620) polymorphisms on lacosamide (LCM) plasma concentrations and the efficacy of LCM in Uygur pediatric patients with epilepsy.

Methods

We analyzed 231 pediatric patients with epilepsy, among which 166 were considered to be LCM responsive. For drug assays, 2-3 mL of venous blood was collected from each patient just before the morning LCM dose was administered (approximately 12 hours after the evening dose, steady-state LCM concentrations). The remaining samples after routine therapeutic drug monitoring were used for genotyping analysis. The χ 2 test and Fisher exact test were utilized for comparative analysis of the allelic and genotypic distribution of ABCC2 polymorphisms between the L
