Role of pharmacodiagnostic of CYP2C9 variants in the optimization of warfarin therapy in Malaysia: a 6-month follow-up study

1. A retrospective study was conducted to explore the importance of CYP2C9 genotyping for the initiation and maintenance therapy of warfarin in clinical practice. A total of 191 patients on warfarin therapy in a local hospital were recruited after written informed consent. Their medical records were...

A retrospective study was conducted to explore the importance of CYP2C9 genotyping for the initiation and maintenance therapy of warfarin in clinical practice. A total of 191 patients on warfarin therapy in a local hospital were recruited after written informed consent. Their medical records were reviewed and no intervention of warfarin dose was performed. 2. A total of 5 ml of blood were taken from each subject for DNA extraction and identification of 1, 2, 3 and 4 CYP2C9 alleles, using a nested-allele-specific-multiplex-polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Half the patients were Malays and the remaining were Chinese. 3. Two genotypes were detected; 93.2% had CYP2C9 1/1 and 6.8% were CYP2C9 1/3. Warfarin doses were higher in patients with CYP2C91/1. Patients with the 1/3 genotype experienced a higher rate of serious and life-threatening bleeding; 15.4 versus 6.2 per 100 patients per 6 months. 4.

Prospective clinical studies are now being conducted to assess dosing algorithms that incorporate the contribution of the genotype to allow the individualization of warfarin dose.
