Abstract
OBJECTIVES Genetic variation has been a major contributor to interindividual variability of warfarin dosage requirement. The specific genetic factors contributing to warfarin bleeding complications are largely unknown, particularly in Chinese patients. In this study, 896 Chinese patients were enrolled to explore the effect of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genetic variations on both the efficacy and safety of warfarin therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS Univariate analyses unveiled significant associations between two specific single nucleotide polymorphisms rs1057910 in CYP2C9 and rs9923231 in VKORC1 and stable warfarin dosage ( P < 0.001). Further, employing multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex and height, the investigation revealed that patients harboring at least one variant allele in CYP2C9 exhibited a heightened risk of bleeding events compared to those with the wild-type genotype (odds ratio = 2.16, P = 0.04). Moreover, a meta-analysis conducted to consolidate findings confirmed the associations of both CYP2C9 (rs1057910) and VKORC1 (rs9923231) with stable warfarin dosage. Notably, CYP2C9 variant genotypes were significantly linked to an increased risk of hemorrhagic complications ( P < 0.00001), VKORC1 did not demonstrate a similar association. CONCLUSION The associations found between specific genetic variants and both stable warfarin dosage and bleeding risk might be the potential significance of gene detection in optimizing warfarin therapy for improving patient efficacy and safety.

Cross B, Turner RM, Zhang JE, Pirmohamed M. Being precise with anticoagulation to reduce adverse drug reactions: are we there yet? THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2024; 24:7. [PMID: 38443337 PMCID: PMC10914631 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-024-00329-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024]
Abstract
Anticoagulants are potent therapeutics widely used in medical and surgical settings, and the amount spent on anticoagulation is rising. Although warfarin remains a widely prescribed oral anticoagulant, prescriptions of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have increased rapidly. Heparin-based parenteral anticoagulants include both unfractionated and low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs). In clinical practice, anticoagulants are generally well tolerated, although interindividual variability in response is apparent. This variability in anticoagulant response can lead to serious incident thrombosis, haemorrhage and off-target adverse reactions such as heparin-induced thrombocytopaenia (HIT). This review seeks to highlight the genetic, environmental and clinical factors associated with variability in anticoagulant response, and review the current evidence base for tailoring the drug, dose, and/or monitoring decisions to identified patient subgroups to improve anticoagulant safety. Areas that would benefit from further research are also identified. Validated variants in VKORC1, CYP2C9 and CYP4F2 constitute biomarkers for differential warfarin response and genotype-informed warfarin dosing has been shown to reduce adverse clinical events. Polymorphisms in CES1 appear relevant to dabigatran exposure but the genetic studies focusing on clinical outcomes such as bleeding are sparse. The influence of body weight on LMWH response merits further attention, as does the relationship between anti-Xa levels and clinical outcomes. Ultimately, safe and effective anticoagulation requires both a deeper parsing of factors contributing to variable response, and further prospective studies to determine optimal therapeutic strategies in identified higher risk subgroups.

Frequency of CYP2C9 Promoter Variable Number Tandem Repeat Polymorphism in a Spanish Population: Linkage Disequilibrium with CYP2C9*3 Allele. J Pers Med 2022; 12:782. [PMID: 35629204 PMCID: PMC9143480 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12050782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2022] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A promoter variable number tandem repeat polymorphism (pVNTR) of CYP2C9 is described with three types of fragments: short (pVNTR-S), medium (pVNTR-M) and long (pVNTR-L). The pVNTR-S allele reduces the CYP2C9 mRNA level in the human liver, and it was found to be in high linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the CYP2C9*3 allele in a White American population. The aim of the present study is to determine the presence and frequency of CYP2C9pVNTR in a Spanish population, as well as analyzing whether the pVNTR-S allele is in LD with the CYP2C9*3 allele in this population. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 209 subjects from Spain participated in the study. The CYP2C9 promoter region was amplified and analyzed using capillary electrophoresis. Genotyping for CYP2C9*2 and *3 variants was performed using a fluorescence-based allele-specific TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. RESULTS The frequencies of CYP2C9pVNTR-L, M and S variant alleles are 0.10, 0.82 and 0.08, respectively. A high LD between CYP2C9pVNTR-S and CYP2C9*3 variant alleles is observed (D' = 0.929, r2 = 0.884). CONCLUSION The results from the present study show that both CYP2C9pVNTR and CYP2C9*3 are in a high LD, which could help to better understand the lower metabolic activity exhibited by CYP2C9*3 allele carriers. These data might be relevant for implementation in the diverse clinical guidelines for the pharmacogenetic analysis of the CYP2C9 gene before treatment with different drugs, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, warfarin, phenytoin and statins.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetic dosing improves the accuracy of warfarin dosing, but current pharmacogenetic dosing algorithms are less accurate in populations of African ancestry. The cytochrome P450 2C9*5 (CYP2C9*5) allele is found almost exclusively in populations of African ancestry, and in-vitro studies suggest CYP2C9*5 is associated with reduced clearance of warfarin. The clinical relevance of this SNP is uncertain. In this multi-centered study of 2298 patients (49% female, 35% Black) taking warfarin, we quantified the association between the CYP2C9*5 allele and warfarin requirements. The CYP2C9*5 SNP was present in 2.3% of Black and 0.07% of White patients. Without taking CYP2C9*5 into account, pharmacogenetic algorithms that include other SNPs overestimated the warfarin dose by 30% (95% CI [19%-40%], p<0.001), an average of 1.87 mg/d (SD 1.64) in heterozygotes (p < 0.001). Non-carriers required a slightly (0.23 mg/d, SD 2.09) higher than predicted dose. Genotyping for CYP2C9*5 corrected the potential overdose and halved overall dosing error in heterozygotes. Patients carrying CYP2C9*5 require a clinically relevant reduction in warfarin dose. Given the potential to improve the accuracy and safety of warfarin dosing in populations of African ancestry, we have incorporated this SNP into a non-profit website to assist warfarin initiation (www.WarfarinDosing.org).

Abstract
Warfarin doses are greatly affected by polymorphism altering cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) gene. This study evaluated the prevalence of alleles (either single or double) and carriers of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in both genotypes CYP2C9 and VKORC1 in alkharj area, Saudi Arabia and its association with warfarin use risk. Total 112 samples were collected and genotyped using FlexiGene DNA Kit for isolation and StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System by TaqMan allelic discrimination methods. The results indicated the frequency of 11%, 8% and 45% for CYP2C9 *2 *3 and VKORC1-1639 G > A polymorphism. And as a combination genotype it was 15.18% For both CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphism, 27.67% for CYP2C9 and 42.86% for VKORC1. Non-carriers rate came to be at 30.3%. According to previously published dosing changes in warfarin for polymorphism carriers (single-double-triple). The predicted warfarin doses reduction in order of 1–1.6, 2–2.9, 2.9–3.7 mg/day. It was found that 72.3% of the study population was carrier of a type of polymorphism, 15.18% for two types of polymorphisms. These findings predict changes in warfarin metabolism and eventually dosing alteration among patients on warfarin. Both genotypes (CYP2C9 and VKORC1) require different dosing of warfarin than non-carriers in order to minimize the risk of warfarin overdosing and avoidance of the drug-related problems (DRPs).

Abstract
Papua New Guinea (PNG) can be roughly divided into highland, coastal and island peoples with significant mitochondrial DNA differentiation reflecting early and recent distinct migrations from Africa and East Asia, respectively. Infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria and HIV severely impact on the health of its peoples for which drug therapy is the major treatment and pharmacogenetics has clinical relevance for many of these drugs. Although there is generally little information about known single nucleotide polymorphisms in the population, in some instances, their frequencies have been shown to be higher than anywhere worldwide. For example, CYP2B6*6 is over 50%, and CYP2C19*2 and *3 are over 40 and 25%, respectively. Conversely, CYP2A6*9, 2B6*2, *3, *4 and *18, and 2C8*3 appear to be much lower than in Whites. CYP2D6 known variants are unclear, and for phase II enzymes, only UGT2B7 and UGT1A9 data are available, with variant frequencies either slightly lower than or similar to Whites. Although almost all PNG people tested are rapid acetylators, but which variant(s) define this phenotype is not known. For HLA-B*13:01, HLA-B*35:05 and HLA-C*04:01, the frequencies show some regioselectivity, but the clinical implications with respect to adverse drug reactions are not known. There are minimal phenotype data for the CYPs and nothing is known about drug transporter or receptor genetics. Determination of genetic variants that are rare in Whites or Asians but common in PNG people is a topic of both scientific and clinical importance, and further research needs to be carried out. Optimizing the safety and efficacy of infectious disease drug therapy through pharmacogenetic studies that have translation potential is a priority.

Abstract
Warfarin is an oral anticoagulant frequently used in the treatment of different cardiovascular diseases. Genetic polymorphisms in the CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genes have produced variants with altered catalytic properties. A total of 212 cardiovascular patients were genotyped for 17 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) within the CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genes. This study confirmed a genetic association of the CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 rs10871454, rs8050894, rs9934438, and rs17708472 SNPs with warfarin sensitivity. This study also found an association between CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genetic haplotype blocks and warfarin sensitivity. The initial warfarin dose was significantly related to the CYP2C9*3 polymorphism and the four VKORC1 SNPs (p < 0.001). There were significant associations between rs4086116 SNP and TAT haplotype within CYP2C9 gene and rs17708472 SNP and CCGG haplotype within VKORC1 gene and warfarin responsiveness. However, possessing a VKORC1 variant allele was found to affect the international normalized ratio (INR) outcomes during initiation of warfarin therapy. In contrast, there was a loose association between the CYP2C9 variant and INR measurements. These findings can enhance the current understanding of the great variability in response to warfarin treatment in Arabs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Warfarin is used to prevent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Ongoing monitoring of International normalised ratio (INR) and time in therapeutic range (TTR) commonly used to assess the quality of warfarin management are required. Anticoagulant clinics have demonstrated improved TTRs, particularly in countries with poorer control in primary care settings. Reported TTR in Australia has been relatively high; so, it is unknown if benefit would be seen from dedicated warfarin clinics in Australia. The aim of this study was to compare the level of warfarin control in patients managed by their general practitioner (GP) and a warfarin care programme (WCP) by Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology. METHOD Retrospective data were collected for AF patients enrolled in the warfarin care programme at WCP, and included patients with INR tests available while managed by their GP. INR tests were used to calculate TTR and frequency of testing for the time managed by GP and WCP, with mean data used for analysis and comparison. RESULTS The eligible 200 warfarin patients had a TTR of 69% with GP management and 82% with WCP management (<.0001). Significant differences were also found between GP and WCP management in the percentage of tests in range, total number of tests and frequency of testing. WCP had a reduced time to repeat test at extremes of INR results. CONCLUSION Australian warfarin control was good when managed by either GP or WCP, but WCP management increased TTR by 13%. Dedicated warfarin programmes can improve warfarin control and optimise therapy for patients.

Abstract
CYP2C9 is the most abundant CYP2C subfamily enzyme in human liver and the most important contributor from this subfamily to drug metabolism. Polymorphisms resulting in decreased enzyme activity are common in the CYP2C9 gene and this, combined with narrow therapeutic indices for several key drug substrates, results in some important issues relating to drug safety and efficacy. CYP2C9 substrate selectivity is detailed and, based on crystal structures for the enzyme, we describe how CYP2C9 catalyzes these reactions. Factors relevant to clinical response to CYP2C9 substrates including inhibition, induction and genetic polymorphism are discussed in detail. In particular, we consider the issue of ethnic variation in pattern and frequency of genetic polymorphisms and clinical implications. Warfarin is the most well studied CYP2C9 substrate; recent work on use of dosing algorithms that include CYP2C9 genotype to improve patient safety during initiation of warfarin dosing are reviewed and prospects for their clinical implementation considered. Finally, we discuss a novel approach to cataloging the functional capabilities of rare 'variants of uncertain significance', which are increasingly detected as more exome and genome sequencing of diverse populations is conducted.

Abstract
Warfarin is an oral anticoagulant agent with a narrow therapeutic index. There is a marked inter- and intra-patient variability in warfarin dose requirement. All factors influencing warfarin response are not known and this study aims to evaluate if regular physical activity (RPA) is a determining factor. RPA level was collected with the Stanford Brief Activity Survey in 1064 incident warfarin users, as part of the Quebec Warfarin Cohort (QWC), and with the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire in 618 patients from the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) Biobank. Linear regression was performed to model relationship of warfarin dose after 3 months of therapy in the QWC with RPA, while controlling for height, weight, age, CYP2C9 (*2 and *3 alleles) and VKORC1 (*2 allele) genotype. Warfarin dose of prevalent users was modeled in the MHI Biobank for replication. A higher level of physical activity was associated with higher doses of warfarin in both cohorts. In the QWC, physical activity could explain 5.4 % (P < 0.001) and 0.9 % (P = 3.23 × 10−5) of variance in dose, in univariate and multivariable models, respectively. Similarly, RPA was found to be associated with 1.7 % (P = 0.0012) and 0.5 % (P = 0.0391) of inter-individual variability in warfarin dose requirement before and after adjustment for other covariables, respectively. RPA is associated with higher warfarin dose requirement. The relevance of clinical recommendations on RPA to maintain a steady response to warfarin should be assessed in further studies.

Abstract
Presently, warfarin sodium or coumadin is the therapeutic drug of choice for maintenance anticoagualtion therapy. One of several factors underlying the variability in warfarin dose response in the patients receiving this oral anticoagulant is a genetic predisposition, especially the CYP2C9 polymorphisms. The pharmacogenomic effect of CYP2C9 polymorphisms is assessed in different racial populations. A retrospective review was performed with an electronic search engine on this topic to get the data for further meta-analysis. A significant correlation between population ethnicity and gene frequencies was detected in this study. A significant low frequency of CYP2C9 variants among the Asian can be demonstrated. The clinical correlation between CYP2C9 polymorphism and warfarin metabolism was also assessed. Four available case-control reports were selected for this meta-analysis. CYP2C9 variants are strongly associated with low-dose warfarin requirement. In summary, the CYP2C9 variants strongly affect the warfarin dose requirement. This phenomenon is ethnically dependent. Due to the high variant frequency among whites in the West, the investigation for CYP2C9 might be useful for this population, not the Asians, whose variant frequency is very low.

Abstract
Warfarin is a widely used anticoagulant characterized by having a narrow therapeutic index and exhibiting a wide range of inter-individual and inter-ethnic variation. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in hepatic VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genes causes decreased and increased metabolism of warfarin respectively. The objective of this study was to evaluate the allele frequency of CYP2C9 polymorphic variants *2 and *3 and the association of these allelic variants with PT/INR and daily/weekly dose of warfarin. Seventy-four patients with heart valve replacement were selected. Patients taking low warfarin dose (4.90-17.50 mg weekly) for at least last 3 months and had a stable INR in the range of 2-3 were included in this study. CYP2C9 polymorphism was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique. Among 74 patients, 9 (12.1 %) showed to have *2 allele, whereas 11 (14.1 %) had *3 allele. Genotype frequencies of wild and variant alleles were, 54.1, 17.6, 21.6 and 6.8 % for *1/*1, *1/*2, *1/*3 and *2/*3 respectively. None of the patient was homozygous for *2 and *3. Statistical analysis showed that low warfarin dose (weekly) is significantly associated with *1/*2 and *1/*3 genotypes (p value ≥ 0.001), whereas PT/INR showed no significant association with the any genotypes of CYP2C9. Our study suggest that polymorphic variants of CYP2C9 (*2 and *3) might influence warfarin dose requirements and associated with the low dose of warfarin in patients.

Abstract
Background. Age-related macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in elderly individuals where aetiology and pathophysiology of age-related macular degeneration are not absolutely clear. Purpose. To determine the frequency of the genotype of rs2108622 in patients with early and exudative age-related macular degeneration. Methods. The study enrolled 190 patients with early age-related macular degeneration, 181 patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration (eAMD), and a random sample of 210 subjects from the general population (control group). The genotyping of rs2108622 was carried out using the real-time polymerase chain reaction method. Results. The analysis of rs2108622 gene polymorphism did not reveal any differences in the distribution of C/C, C/T, and T/T genotypes between the early AMD group, the eAMD group, and the control group. The CYP4F2 (1347C>T) T/T genotype was more frequent in males with eAMD compared to females (10.2% versus 0.8%; p = 0.0052); also T/T genotype was less frequently present in eAMD females compared to healthy control females (0.8% versus 6.2%; p = 0.027). Conclusion. Rs2108622 gene polymorphism had no predominant effect on the development of early AMD and eAMD. The T/T genotype was more frequent in males with eAMD compared to females and less frequently present in eAMD females compared to healthy females.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic disciplines address pharmacological traits, including efficacy and adverse events. Pharmacogenomics studies have identified pervasive genetic effects on treatment outcomes, resulting in the development of genetic biomarkers for optimization of drug therapy. Pharmacogenomics-based tests are already being applied in clinical decision making. However, despite substantial progress in identifying the genetic etiology of pharmacological response, current biomarker panels still largely rely on single gene tests with a large portion of the genetic effects remaining to be discovered. Future research must account for the combined effects of multiple genetic variants, incorporate pathway-based approaches, explore gene-gene interactions and nonprotein coding functional genetic variants, extend studies across ancestral populations, and prioritize laboratory characterization of molecular mechanisms. Because genetic factors can play a key role in drug response, accurate biomarker tests capturing the main genetic factors determining treatment outcomes have substantial potential for improving individual clinical care.

Abstract
Aim: Warfarin, a widely used anticoagulant, exhibits large interindividual variability in dose requirements. CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms in various ethnic groups have been extensively studied as genetic markers associated with variable drug response. However, allele frequencies of these variants have not been assessed in major ethnic groups in the Indian population. Materials & methods: To study the functional variants known to affect warfarin dosing, we reanalyzed genotype microarray datasets generated as a part of genome-wide association studies as well as data from the Indian Genome Variation database. We examined data from 2680 individuals across 24 ethnically diverse Indian subpopulations. Results: Allelic distribution of VKORC1 (-1639G>A) showed a greater degree of variation across Indian subpopulations, with frequencies as low as 6.5% in an out-group subpopulation to >70% in Tibeto–Burmans. Risk allele frequency of CYP4F2*3 (V433M) was higher in north Indians (0.30–0.44), as compared with other world populations, such as African–American (0.12), Caucasian (0.34) and Hispanic (0.23). TheVKORC1 variant (-1639A) was shown to be prevalent amongst Tibeto–Burmans, whereas CYP2C9 (R144C, I359L) and CYP4F2 (V433M) variants were observed in considerable variability amongst Indo–Europeans. The frequency of CYP2C9*3 (I359L) in north Indians was found to be higher than in most Asian populations. Furthermore, geographical distribution patterns of these variants in north India showed an increased trend of warfarin extensive metabolizers from the Himalayan to Gangetic region. Combined allele frequency (CYP2C9*3 and CYP4F2*3) data suggest that poor metabolizers varied in the range of 0.38–1.85% in Indo–Europeans. Conclusion: Based on genotypic distribution, the majority of the Indian subpopulation might require higher doses for stable anticoagulation, whereas careful assessment is required for Tibeto–Burmans who are expected to have intermediate dose requirement. This is the largest global genetic epidemiological study examining variants associated with warfarin that could potentially be valuable to clinicians in optimizing dosage strategies.

Abstract
Drug response shows significant interpatient variability and evidence that genetics influences outcome of drug therapy has been known for more than five decades. However, the translation of this knowledge to clinical practice remains slow. Using examples from clinical practice six considerations about the implementation of pharmacogenetics (PGx) into routine care are discussed: the need for PGx biomarkers; the sources of genetic variability in drug response; the amount of variability explained by PGx; whether PGx test results are actionable; the level of evidence needed for implementation of PGx and the sources of information regarding interpretation of PGx data.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Current medical practice takes into account information based on population studies and benefits observed in large populations or cohorts. However, individual patients present great differences in both toxicity and clinical efficacy that can be explained by variations in adherence, unknown drug to drug interactions and genetic variability. The latter seems to explain from 20% up to 95% of patient to patient variability. Treating patients with cardiovascular disorders faces the clinician with the challenge to include genomic analysis into daily practice. There are several examples within cardiovascular disease of treatments that can vary in toxicity or clinical usefulness based on genetic changes. One of the main factors affecting the efficacy of Clopidogrel is the phenotype associated with polymorphisms in the gene CYP 2C9. Furthermore, regarding oral anticoagulants, changes in CYP2C9 and VKORC1 play an important role in changing the clinical response to anticoagulation. When analyzing statin treatment, one of their main toxicities (myopathy) can be predicted by the SLCO1B1 polymorphism. The potential for prediction of toxicity and clinical efficacy from the use of genetic analysis warrants further studies aiming towards its inclusion in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Pharmacogenetic studies of the genetic regulation of warfarin dose requirement have been reported, but few have been on the bleeding complications at therapeutic international normalized ratio (INR). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of gene polymorphisms of CYP2C9, VKORC1, thrombomodulin (THBD) and C-reactive protein (CRP) on the risk of bleeding complications of warfarin at therapeutic INR in Korean patients with mechanical cardiac valves. METHODS A retrospective warfarin pharmacogenetic association study was performed. One hundred and forty-two patients with mechanical cardiac valves who were on warfarin anticoagulation therapy and maintained INR levels of 2·0-3·0 for 3 consecutive time intervals were followed up. CYP2C9 rs1057910, VKORC1 rs9934438, CRP rs1205, THBD rs1042580 and THBD rs3176123 were genotyped. The association between genotypes and warfarin bleeding complications was evaluated using logistic regression analysis, adjusted for demographic and clinical factors. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Of 142 eligible patients, 21 patients (14·8%) had bleeding complications at therapeutic INR. Patients with the G allele in THBD rs1042580 (AG or GG) had a lower risk of bleeding than patients with the AA genotype (adjusted OR: 0·210, 95% CI: 0·050-0·875, P = 0·032). The THBD rs3176123 polymorphism did not show any association with bleeding. For CRP rs1205, patients with the A allele (GA or AA genotype) had a higher risk of bleeding than patients with the GG genotype (adjusted OR: 5·575, 95% CI: 1·409-22·058, P = 0·014). Variant VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genotypes did not confer a significant increase in the risk for bleeding complications. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSIONS As expected, no association could be found between bleeding complications and two dose-related genes (CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 rs9934438). In contrast, our results suggest that two genetic markers (THBD rs1042580 and CRP rs1205) could be predictors of bleeding complications of warfarin at normal INR. Given the retrospective study design and the relatively small sample size, our hypothesis requires further independent validation using more robust prospective designs. However, additional retrospective studies similar to ours but in populations with different genetic backgrounds should also be useful.

Abstract
Background: Oral anticoagulant therapy is conditioned by environmental and genetic factors.Objectives: To verify the effect of the calumenin, cytochrome P-450 variants and VKORC1 genetic polymorphisms on the response to warfarin therapy and warfarin dose adjustment.Patients and Methods: We selected fifty warfarin treated patients with dose adjusted at INR value between 2 and 3. PCR-RFLP is used for of calumenin gene polymorphism. Insitu Hybridization was used for identification of VKORC1 promoter and CYP2C9 variants polymorphisms.Results: The warfarin dose in the patients with Calumenin and CYP2C9 genetic polymorphism was lower than the wild type gene. The warfarin dose in the patients with VKORC1 variants was statistically lower compared to that of the wild-type. The presence of combined CYP2C9 genetic variants and VKORC1 polymorphism was associated with lower warfarin dose than that the wild types.Conclusion: Calumenin (CALU) might be a new genetic factor involved in the pharmacogenetics of anticoagulant therapy.

Abstract
Indications for anticoagulation are common in patients with malignancy. Cancer patients have an increased risk of developing venous thromboembolic events or may have other indications for anticoagulation, such as atrial fibrillation. New oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are now available that offer increased options for anticoagulation beyond the traditional vitamin K antagonists and low molecular weight heparins that have long been the cornerstone of treatment. This review will focus on the three NOACs that are currently approved for use in the U.S.: the direct thrombin inhibitor, dabigatran, and the factor Xa inhibitors, apixaban and rivaroxaban. Oncologists are likely to encounter an increasing number of patients taking these agents at the time of their cancer diagnosis or to have patients who develop indications for anticoagulation during the course of their disease. The basic pharmacology, current clinical indications, and approach to the use of NOACs in the cancer patient will be reviewed.

Abstract
Warfarin and other 4-hydroxycoumarin-based oral anticoagulants targeting vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) are administered to humans, mice and rats with different purposes in mind - to act as pesticides in high-dosage baits for killing rodents, but also to save lives when administered in low dosages as antithrombotic drugs in humans. However, high-dosage warfarin used to control rodent populations has resulted in numerous mutations causing warfarin resistance. Currently, six single missense mutations in mice, 12 distinct missense mutations in rats, as well as compound heterozygous or homozygous mutations with up to six distinct missense mutations per Vkorc1 allele have been described. Warfarin resistance missense mutations for human VKORC1 have also been found world-wide, but differ characteristically from those in rodents. In humans, 26 distinct mutations have been characterized, but occur only rarely either in heterozygous or, even rarer, in homozygous form. In this review, we summarize the known VKORC1 missense mutations causing warfarin and other 4-hydroxycoumarin drug resistance, identify genomics databases as new sources of data, explore possible underlying genetic mechanisms, and summarize similarities and differences between warfarin resistant VKORC1 variants in humans and rodents.

Abstract
Warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant worldwide. Warfarin has a narrow therapeutic index, requiring frequent monitoring of the INR to achieve therapeutic anticoagulation. The role of pharmacogenomics in warfarin disposition and response has been well established in adults, but remains unclear for pediatric patients. In this review, we focus on the important CYP2C9 and VKORC1 variants involved in warfarin response, our current understanding of warfarin disposition and pharmacogenomics, and recent warfarin pharmacogenetic studies in pediatric patients. Finally, we discuss the need for future pediatric studies and the clinical implications of developing pharmacogenetic-based dosing algorithms in children.

Abstract
Interindividual variability in drug response is a major clinical problem. Polymedication and genetic polymorphisms modulating drug-metabolising enzyme activities (cytochromes P450, CYP) are identified sources of variability in drug responses. We present here the relevant data on the clinical impact of the major CYP polymorphisms (CYP2D6, CYP2C19 and CYP2C9) on drug therapy where genotyping and phenotyping may be considered, and the guidelines developed when available. CYP2D6 is responsible for the oxidative metabolism of up to 25% of commonly prescribed drugs such as antidepressants, antipsychotics, opioids, antiarrythmics and tamoxifen. The ultrarapid metaboliser (UM) phenotype is recognised as a cause of therapeutic inefficacy of antidepressant, whereas an increased risk of toxicity has been reported in poor metabolisers (PMs) with several psychotropics (desipramine, venlafaxine, amitriptyline, haloperidol). CYP2D6 polymorphism influences the analgesic response to prodrug opioids (codeine, tramadol and oxycodone). In PMs for CYP2D6, reduced analgesic effects have been observed, whereas in UMs cases of life-threatening toxicity have been reported with tramadol and codeine. CYP2D6 PM phenotype has been associated with an increased risk of toxicity of metoprolol, timolol, carvedilol and propafenone. Although conflicting results have been reported regarding the association between CYP2D6 genotype and tamoxifen effects, CYP2D6 genotyping may be useful in selecting adjuvant hormonal therapy in postmenopausal women. CYP2C19 is responsible for metabolising clopidogrel, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and some antidepressants. Carriers of CYP2C19 variant alleles exhibit a reduced capacity to produce the active metabolite of clopidogrel, and are at increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events. For PPIs, it has been shown that the mean intragastric pH values and the Helicobacter pylori eradication rates were higher in carriers of CYP2C19 variant alleles. CYP2C19 is involved in the metabolism of several antidepressants. As a result of an increased risk of adverse effects in CYP2C19 PMs, dose reductions are recommended for some agents (imipramine, sertraline). CYP2C9 is responsible for metabolising vitamin K antagonists (VKAs), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), sulfonylureas, angiotensin II receptor antagonists and phenytoin. For VKAs, CYP2C9 polymorphism has been associated with lower doses, longer time to reach treatment stability and higher frequencies of supratherapeutic international normalised ratios (INRs). Prescribing algorithms are available in order to adapt dosing to genotype. Although the existing data are controversial, some studies have suggested an increased risk of NSAID-associated gastrointestinal bleeding in carriers of CYP2C9 variant alleles. A relationship between CYP2C9 polymorphisms and the pharmacokinetics of sulfonylureas and angiotensin II receptor antagonists has also been observed. The clinical impact in terms of hypoglycaemia and blood pressure was, however, modest. Finally, homozygous and heterozygous carriers of CYP2C9 variant alleles require lower doses of phenytoin to reach therapeutic plasma concentrations, and are at increased risk of toxicity. New diagnostic techniques made safer and easier should allow quicker diagnosis of metabolic variations. Genotyping and phenotyping may therefore be considered where dosing guidelines according to CYP genotype have been published, and help identify the right molecule for the right patient.

Abstract
Over the last decade, the number of clinical pharmacogenetic tests has steadily increased as understanding of the role of genes in drug response has grown. However, uptake of these tests has been slow, due in large part to the lack of robust evidence demonstrating clinical utility. We review the evidence behind four pharmacogenetic tests and discuss the barriers and facilitators to uptake: 1) warfarin (drug safety and efficacy); 2) clopidogrel (drug efficacy); 3) codeine (drug efficacy); and 4) abacavir (drug safety). Future efforts should be directed toward addressing these issues and considering additional approaches to generating evidence basis to support clinical use of pharmacogenetic tests.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are one of the factors that contribute to the pharmacokinetic (PK) variability of drugs. PK variability is observed in the bimodal distribution between extensive metabolizers (EMs) and poor metabolizers (PMs). PK variability may also exist between individuals genotyped as homozygous EMs and heterozygous EMs. This may carry implications for drug dosing and drug response (e.g., risk of therapeutic failure or drug toxicity). Studies have reported significant PK differences between homozygous and heterozygous EMs. Some literature suggests that this distinction may be of clinical relevance. Due to study design limitations and data that are either sparse or conflicting, generalizations regarding the potential impact of the CYP genotype, within EMs, are difficult. Optimally designed clinical trials are needed. This review evaluates the potential impact of CYP genetic polymorphisms on interindividual PK variability of drugs within an EM population.

Abstract
Coumarin anticoagulants, which include warfarin, acenocoumarol and phenprocoumon, are among the most widely prescribed drugs worldwide. There is now a large body of published data showing that genotype for certain common polymorphisms in the genes encoding the target vitamin K epoxide reductase (G-1639A/C1173T) and the main metabolizing enzyme CYP2C9 (CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles) are important determinants of the individual coumarin anticoagulant dose requirement. Additional less common polymorphisms in these genes together with polymorphisms in other genes relevant to blood coagulation such as the cytochrome P450 CYP4F2, gamma-glutamyl carboxylase, calumenin and cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase may also be significant predictors of dose, especially in ethnic groups such as Africans where there have been fewer genetic studies compared with European populations. Using relevant genotypes to calculate starting dose may improve safety during the initiation period. Various algorithms for dose calculation, which also take patient age and other characteristics into consideration, have been developed for all three widely used coumarin anticoagulants and are now being tested in ongoing large randomised clinical trials. One recently completed study has provided encouraging results suggesting that calculation of warfarin dose on the basis of individual patient genotype leads to few adverse events and a higher proportion of time within the therapeutic coagulation rate window, but these findings still need confirmation.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of the warfarin dose-associated genotypes, CYP2C9*3 (rs1057910), VKORC1 -1639 G/A (rs9923231), and CYP4F2 1347 C/T (rs2108622), on hemorrhagic complications in Han Chinese patients. Consecutively recruited patients requiring more than 1 year of warfarin treatment were followed from the initiation of warfarin anticoagulation for at least 3 months. CYP2C9*3, VKORC1 -1639 G/A, and CYP4F2 1347 C/T were genotyped by sequencing. The association between genotypes and warfarin hemorrhagic complications was evaluated using Cox proportional hazard regression, adjusted for demographic and clinical factors. Of 312 eligible patients obtaining stable warfarin anticoagulation in 3 months, 11 major and 69 minor hemorrhages occurred over 147 person-years. The CYP2C9*3 genotype conferred an increased risk of all [hazard ratio (HR) 3.07, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.57-6.01] and minor hemorrhage (HR 3.28, 95 % CI 1.62-6.65), but not major hemorrhage (HR 0.44, 95 % CI 0.04-4.72). CYP2C9*3 also conferred an increased risk of over-anticoagulation with international normalization ratio (INR) ≥4 (HR 2.92, 95 % CI 1.08-7.85). VKORC1 -1639 G/A, and CYP4F2 rs2108622 did not confer significant increase in risk for hemorrhage or over-anticoagulation. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that time to all hemorrhagic events was significantly shorter for patients with CYP2C9*3 genotype than non-carriers (P = 0.001), but not for patients with VKORC1 -1639 G/A or CYP4F2 rs2108622 genotype (P = 0.3 and 0.2). CYP2C9*3 may be the main genetic factor in hemorrhagic complications in Chinese patients under warfarin anticoagulation.

Evaluation of: Effect of VKORC1 haplotypes on transcriptional regulation and warfarin dose. Rieder MJ, Reiner AP, Gage BF et al.: N. Engl. J. Med. 352(22) 2285-2293 (2005). Reider and colleagues examined the association between ten single nucleotide polymorphisms in the vitamin K epoxide reductase complex (VKORC)1 gene and maintenance warfarin dose in patients of European ancestry requiring chronic anticoagulation. Two haplotype groups were associated with warfarin dose after adjusting for covariates using stepwise regression analysis. Together, these two haplotype groups accounted for approximately 25% of the variance in dose. Future research will be required in other populations to evaluate the association of VKORC1 haplotypes and warfarin dose, and to evaluate whether adjusting warfarin dose based on VKORC1 haplotype is superior to standard dosing strategies with respect to the efficacy and safety of warfarin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatoma is caused by many factors including alcohol, chemicals, viral infection, and chronic inflammation. Cytochrome P450 polymorphism plays an important role in its pathogenesis. CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP1A1 have been identified to be related with hepatic carcinogenesis and tumor size and stage. However, no studies have been performed on CYP2C9, a major CYP in the liver and hepatoma. AIM OF THE STUDY To identify if there is polymorphism of CYP2C9 in a HepG2 cell line. METHODS A pair of primers was used to clone CYP2C9 exon 3 region and subsequently sequenced. The sequence was compared to normal CYP2C9 for identification of any mutation. RESULTS A point mutation was identified. It was located in the amino acid number 144 of CYP2C9 protein with the change of normal amino acid arginine into cysteine, which is the same as identified in poor metabolism patients as homozygous CYP2C9*2. CONCLUSIONS There is a mutation (CYP2C9*2/ CYP2C9*2) in a HepG2 cell line. Thus, polymorphism of CYP2C9 may also be involved in the carcinogenesis of hepatoma as CYPs2D6 and 2E1.

Abstract
An effective strategy for personalized medicine requires a major conceptual change in the development and application of therapeutics. In this article, we argue that further advances in this field should be made with reference to another conceptual shift, that of network pharmacology. We examine the intersection of personalized medicine and network pharmacology to identify strategies for the development of personalized therapies that are fully informed by network pharmacology concepts. This provides a framework for discussion of the impact personalized medicine will have on chemistry in terms of drug discovery, formulation and delivery, the adaptations and changes in ideology required and the contribution chemistry is already making. New ways of conceptualizing chemistry's relationship with medicine will lead to new approaches to drug discovery and hold promise of delivering safer and more effective therapies.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily members CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 are polymorphically expressed enzymes that are involved in the metabolic inactivation of several drugs, including, among others, antiepileptics, NSAIDs, oral hypoglycemics, and anticoagulants. Many of these drugs have a narrow therapeutic index, and growing evidence indicates a prominent role of CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 polymorphisms in the therapeutic efficacy and in the development of adverse effects among patients treated with drugs that are CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 substrates. In this review, we summarize present knowledge on human variability in the frequency of variant CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 alleles. Besides an expected interethnic variability in allele frequencies, a large intraethnic variability exists. Among Asian subjects, for example, statistically significant differences (p < 0.0001) in CYP2C9*3 allele frequencies between Chinese and Japanese individuals have been reported. In addition, individuals from East Asia present different allele frequencies for CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 compared with South Asian subjects (p < 0.0001). Among Caucasian Europeans, statistically significant differences for the frequency of CYP2C8*3, CYP2C9*2, and CYP2C9*3 exist (p < 0.0001). This indicates that Asian individuals or Caucasian European individuals cannot be considered as homogeneous groups regarding CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 allele frequencies. Caucasian American subjects also show a large variability in allele frequencies, which is likely to be related to ethnic ancestry. A higher frequency of variant CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 alleles is expected among Caucasian Americans with South European ancestry than in individuals with North European ancestry. The findings summarized in this review suggest that among individuals with Asian or European ancestry, intraethnic differences in the risk of developing adverse effects with drugs that are CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 substrates are to be expected. In addition, the observed intraethnic variability reinforces the need for proper selection of control subjects and points against the use of surrogate control groups for studies involving association of CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 alleles with adverse drug reactions or spontaneous diseases.

Abstract
This review article evaluates novel oral anticoagulants in comparison with warfarin for thromboembolism prophylaxis in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is the most frequently diagnosed arrhythmia in the United States. The most serious side effect of AF is stroke. Warfarin has several decades of proven efficacy in AF-related stroke prevention but the drug's numerous drawbacks make its implementation difficult for practitioners and patients. The difficulties of warfarin have prompted the development of alternative anticoagulants for AF-related stroke prevention with better efficacy, safety, and convenience. The oral direct thrombin inhibitor, dabigatran, and the oral factor Xa inhibitors, rivaroxaban and apixaban, have been evaluated in a large phase III trial. Dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban were shown to be noninferior compared with warfarin in the prevention of stroke. Dabigatran and apixaban were found to be statistically superior to warfarin. All three may also have a better safety profile than warfarin. In conclusion, novel anticoagulants have a different pharmacologic profile compared with warfarin that may eliminate many of the treatment inconveniences. Practitioners must also be aware of the disadvantages these new drugs possess when choosing a management strategy for their patients. Drug selection may become clearer as these new drugs are used more extensively.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Warfarin is one of the most widely used anticoagulants, yet interindividual differences in drug response, a narrow therapeutic range and a high risk of bleeding or stroke complicate its use. We aimed to determine the allele and genotype frequency of VKORC1 1173 C>T, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 variant polymorphisms in the Egyptian population and to evaluate their influence on the interindividual differences in warfarin dosage. METHODS A total of 154 unrelated healthy adult patients and 46 warfarin-treated patients were included. SYBR Green-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used for studying VKORC1 (C1173T) and CYP2C9*3 polymorphisms. Mutagenically separated PCR assay was used to detect the CYP2C9*2 allele. RESULTS VKORC1 genotype frequencies were 11%, 24% and 65% for CC, CT and TT, respectively. The prevalence of CYP2C9 haplotypes was 81% (*1\*1), 3.3% (*1\*2), 9.7% (*1\*3), 4.5% (*2\*2) and 0.65% (2\*3 and *3\*3). VKORC1 TT and CYP2C9*2\*2 were associated with a significantly lower warfarin dose. VKORC1 and CYP2C9 accounted for 31.7% and 15.6% of warfarin dose variability, respectively, and together with clinical factors explained 61.3% of total variability. CONCLUSION VKORC1-TT and CYP2C9 *1/*1 are the most prevalent genotypes among Egyptians. Patients with VKORC1-TT genotype required a lower warfarin dose.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is a polymorphic enzyme responsible for the metabolism of different drugs, some with low therapeutic index. The frequency of functionally important mutations and alleles of the gene coding for CYP2C9 shows wide ethnic variations. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of the most common allelic variants of the CYP2C9 enzyme and to predict the genotype frequency in the Mazandarani ethnic group among the Iranian population. Genotyping of CYP2C9 allelic variants was carried out in 103 unrelated subjects by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length pattern analysis. The frequencies for CYP2C9 alleles *1, *2, and *3 were 78%, 12%, and 10%, respectively. No subjects were found carrying the CYP2C19*11 allele. The frequencies of CYP2C9 genotypes *1/*1, *1/*2, *1/*3, *2/*2, *2/*3, and *3/*3 were 61%, 19%, 16%, 1.5%, 2.5%, and 0.0%, respectively. The result of the present study showed that the two inactive alleles of CYP2C9 accounted for 22% of CYP2C9 alleles in our sample versus 1.5%-29% reported in other populations. The frequencies of the studied alleles resulted in significant differences between our sample and African and Eastern Asian populations.

Abstract
Dicumarinic oral anticoagulants have a narrow therapeutic range and a great individual variability in response, which makes calculation of the correct dose difficult and critical. Genetic factors involved in this variability include polymorphisms of genes that encode the metabolic enzyme CYP2C9 and the target enzyme vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1); these polymorphisms can be associated with reduced enzymatic expression. We examined the frequency of the most relevant variants encoding CYP2C9 (alleles *1, *2 and *3) and VKORC1 (SNP -1639A>G) in the Argentinian population. Molecular typing was performed by PCR-RFLP on a randomly selected sample of 101 healthy volunteers from the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires gene bank. Fifty-seven subjects were identified as homozygous for CYP2C9*1 and 14 for *2, while 24 and 5 were heterozygous for *2 and *3 alleles; one individual was a composite heterozygote (*2/*3). When we examined VKORC1, 21 subjects were AA homozygous, 60 were AG heterozygotes and 20 were GG homozygotes. This is the first analysis of genotypic frequencies for CYP2C9 and VKORC1 performed in an Argentinian population. These allele prevalences are similar to what is known for Caucasian population, reflecting the European ancestor of our patient population, coming mostly from Buenos Aires city and surroundings. Knowledge of this prevalence information is instrumental for cost-effective pharmacogenomic testing in patients undergoing oral anticoagulation treatment.
