Maria Pashayan Shares: Prognostic Implication of CYP2C19 Genotype
Maria Pashayan, Pharmacogenomics consultant at Center of Medical Genetics, posted on LinkedIn:
“In this large-scale, real-world analysis of DES-treated patients receiving clopidogrel-based dual antiplatelet therapy, high clinical risk (CHADS-P2A2RC ≥ 4 or TRS 2°P ≥ 3) was associated with worse clinical outcomes compared with low clinical risk.
Among clopidogrel-treated patients, carriage of the CYP2C19 LoF allele was linked to increased CV risk, particularly in those at high clinical risk. In low-risk patients, the prognostic relevance of the LoF allele carriage was mainly observed in those presenting with ACS.
Precision antiplatelet therapy works best when genetics + clinical risk + presentation (ACS vs CCS) are considered together—moving us closer to practical, evidence-based PGx implementation at the bedside.”
