Impact of CYP2C19 genotype and platelet function on clinical outcome in coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases patients received clopidogrel post percutaneous coronary intervention / 中华心血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To analyze association of CYP2C19 genotype and platelet function phenotype and their impact on clinical outcomes including bleeding events of coronary artery disease(CAD) patients received clopidogrel post percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).@*Methods@#Coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases patients underwent elective PCI and coronary stent implantation in Fuwai hospital were prospectively enrolled during May 2012 to April 2013. Patients were assigned into groups by genotype of CYP2C19 (extensive metabolizers, intermediate metabolizers, and poor metabolizers) and phenotype of platelet function (clopidogrel responders, semi-responders, and non-responders). The rates of major adverse cardiovascular events, combined cardiovascular events, and bleeding events were recorded during a at least 12 months follow-up period and compared among above defined groups. The association between genotype or phenotype and clinical outcome was assessed using multivariable Cox regression hazards model.@*Results@#Three hundred and eighty patients received coronary stent implantation and met the inclusion criteria of the study, including 157(41.3%) clopidogrel extensive metabolizers, 176(46.3%) intermediate metabolizers, and 47(12.4%) poor metabolizers according to the genotype grouping; 98(25.8%) were responders to clopidogrel, 149(39.2%) were semi-responders, and 133 (35.0%) were non-responders according to the phenotype grouping. Three hundred and seventy-six patients accomplished follow-up. The highest combined cardiovascular events rate was observed in the poor metabolizers (34.0%(16/47)) as compared to the intermediate metabolizers (19.0%(33/174), P=0.026) and the extensive metabolizers (15.5%(24/155), P=0.005). The highest bleeding events rate was observed in the clopidogrel responders (33.7%(33/98)) as compared to the semi-responders (18.9%(28/149), P=0.008) and non-responders (17.7%(23/130), P=0.008). In multivariable Cox regression analysis, the adjusted risk of cardiovascular death, acute myocardial infarction, stent embolism, target lesion revascularization and angina onset was 2.305 times higher in clopidogrel poor metabolizers than in extensive and semi-metabolizers (95%CI=1.208-4.399, P=0.011). The adjusted HR for bleeding events was 0.540 (95%CI=0.321-0.909, P=0.021) among semi-responders vs. responders, was 0.52 (95%CI=0.301-0.905, P=0.021) among non-responders vs. responders during the 12 months follow-up period.@*Conclusions@#Among CAD patients underwent stenting and clopidogrel treatment, poor CYP2C19 metabolizers group carries a significantly higher risk for combined cardiovascular events than in extensive metabolizers group, while clopidogrel responders patients are at significantly higher risk for bleeding as compared to the semi-responders and non-responders.
