    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: Inter-individual variability in clopidogrel responsiveness is dependent on genetic polymorphisms. We aimed to investigate the impact of 3 genetic polymorphisms involved in clopidogrel metabolism on a strategy of dose-adjustment according to platelet reactivity (PR) monitoring. MATERIAL AND METHODS: [corrected] This prospective multicenter study enrolled 498 ACS patients undergoing PCI. PR was measured using the Vasodilator-Stimulated Phosphoprotein index (VASP) and a cut-off value of ≥50% defined high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR). Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome (CYP) 2C19, Paraxonase-1 (PON1) and ABCB1 were determined by allele specific PCR. Dose-adjustment was performed using up-to 3 additional loading doses (LD) of 600mg clopidogrel in order to obtain a VASP <50% in patients with HTPR following the first LD. RESULTS: CYP 2C19 2*polymorphism (p=0.02), but neither PON1 (p=0.8) nor ABCB1 genotype (p=0.9), was significantly associated with HTPR. The dose-adjustment strategy failed in 11% of patients. ABCB1 polymorphism was significantly associated with a failed dose-adjustment (FDA) (p=0.04). No relation was found between the other genotypes and the efficacy of LD adjustment. In multivariate analysis, BMI and ABCB1 polymorphism were the only factors significantly associated with FDA (p=0.005 and p=0.04 respectively). CONCLUSION: While CYP 2C19 2* is associated with HTPR after 600mg of clopidogrel, ABCB1 is responsible for the failure of a strategy of loading dose-adjustment according to PR monitoring. These findings may help to define a therapeutic strategy to optimize anti-platelet therapy in ACS patients undergoing PCI.
