Abstract
Background After percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), clopidogrel resistant patients are at an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). We aimed to assess whether genotype-guided selection of oral antiplatelet drugs using a clinical decision support (CDS) algorithm reduces the occurrence of these ischemic events and improves outcomes among Caribbean Hispanic patients from Puerto Rico, who are underrepresented in clinical pharmacogenomic (PGx)-guided implementation studies. Methods Individual platelet function testing (PRU) measures, CYP2C19*2 and PON1 rs662 genotypes, clinical and demographic data from 8 medical facilities were included. Patients were separated into standard of care (SoC) and genotype-guided groups (150 each). Risk scores were calculated based on a previously developed CDS risk prediction algorithm designed to make actionable treatment recommendations for each patient. Alternative therapy with ticagrelor was recommended for patients with a high risk score ≥2. Statistical associations between patient time free of MACCEs and predictor variables (i.e., treatment groups, risk scores) were tested in this population using Kaplan-Meier survival analyses and Cox proportional-hazards regression models. Results Median age of participants is 67 years; BMI: 27.8; 48% women; 14% smokers; 59% with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Among patients with high-risk scores who were free from MACCE events 6 months after coronary stenting, genotype-driven guidance of antiplatelet therapy showed superiority over SoC in terms of reducing the incidence rate of atherothrombotic events. Conclusions The clinical utility of our PGx-driven CDS algorithm to reduce the incidence rate of MACCEs among post-PCI Caribbean Hispanic patients on clopidogrel was externally demonstrated. Clinical Trial Registration Unique Identifier NCT03419325.

Abstract
Background High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) with clopidogrel is predictive of ischemic events in adults with coronary artery disease. Despite strong data suggesting HTPR varies with ethnicity, including clinical and genetic variables, no genome-wide association study (GWAS) of clopidogrel response has been performed among Caribbean Hispanics. This study aimed to identify genetic predictors of HTPR in a cohort of Caribbean Hispanic cardiovascular patients from Puerto Rico. Methods Local Ancestry inference (LAI) and traditional GWASs were performed on a cohort of 511 clopidogrel-treated patients, stratified based on their P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) into responders and non-responders (HTPR). Results The LAI GWAS identified variants within the CYP2C19 region associated with HTPR, predominantly driven by individuals of European ancestry and absent in those with native ancestry. Incorporating local ancestry adjustment notably enhanced our ability to detect associations. While no loci reached traditional GWAS significance, three variants showed suggestive significance at chromosomes 3, 14 and 22 (OSBPL10 rs1376606, DERL3 rs5030613, and RGS6 rs9323567). In addition, a variant in the UNC5C gene on chromosome 4 was associated with an increased risk of HTPR. These findings were not identified in other cohorts, highlighting the unique genetic landscape of Caribbean Hispanics. Conclusion This is the first GWAS of clopidogrel response in Hispanics, confirming the relevance of the CYP2C19 cluster, particularly among those with European ancestry, and also identifying novel markers in a diverse patient population. Further studies are warranted to replicate our findings in other diverse cohorts and meta-analyses.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate the relationship between the plasma miR-223 expression level and clopidogrel resistance in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. Methods We performed a search for publications using online databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Chinese Databases (CNKI database, Weipu database, and Wanfang database) from the inception of the databases to June 18, 2023, to identify studies reporting the relationship between the plasma miR-223 level and clopidogrel resistance in ACS patients. Two researchers independently searched and screened to ensure the consistency of the results and assess the quality of the included studies according to the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. A fixed-effects model was used for pooling data with STATA 14.0. Results Four articles including 399 Chinese ACS patients were eligible for the meta-analysis. Low plasma miR-223 levels were independently correlated with clopidogrel resistance in Chinese ACS patients (OR 0.58, 95% CI: 0.33-1.04). Conclusion Lower plasma miR-223 levels are associated with clopidogrel resistance in Chinese ACS patients, suggesting that miR-223 may be a potential diagnostic biomarker of clopidogrel resistance.

A Pharmacogenetic Study of CYP2C19 in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients of Colombian Origin Reveals New Polymorphisms Potentially Related to Clopidogrel Therapy. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11050400. [PMID: 34065778 PMCID: PMC8150782 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11050400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2021] [Revised: 04/20/2021] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Clopidogrel, an oral platelet P2Y12 receptor blocker, is used in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome. Interindividual variability in treatment response and the occurrence of adverse effects has been attributed to genetic variants in CYP2C19. The analysis of relevant pharmacogenes in ethnically heterogeneous and poorly studied populations contributes to the implementation of personalized medicine. We analyzed the coding and regulatory regions of CYP2C19 in 166 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with clopidogrel. The allele frequencies of CYP2C19 alleles *1, *2, *4, *17, *27 and *33 alleles were 86.1%, 7.2%, 0.3%, 10.2%, 0.3% and 0.3%, respectively. A new potentially pathogenic mutation (p.L15H) and five intronic variants with potential splicing effects were detected. In 14.4% of the patients, a new haplotype in strong linkage disequilibrium was identified. The clinical outcome indicated that 13.5% of the patients presented adverse drugs reactions with a predominance of bleeding while 25% of these patients were carriers of at least one polymorphic allele. We propose that new regulatory single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) might potentially influence the response to clopidogrel in Colombian individuals.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Minority populations in the USA are disproportionately affected by cardiovascular conditions. Reduced responsiveness to clopidogrel among carriers of CYP2C19 variants has been reported in patients with either coronary artery disease (CAD) or acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous studies have evaluated CYP2C19 genotyping-guided antiplatelet therapy in selected populations; however, this has yet to be tested among Hispanics. Given the paucity of clinical research on CYP2C19 and antiplatelet clinical outcomes in Hispanics, our study will test the safety and efficacy of a genetic-driven treatment algorithm to guide dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Caribbean Hispanics. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a multicentre, prospective, non-randomised clinical trial that proposes an assessment of pharmacogenomic-guided DAPT in post-PCI Caribbean Hispanic patients with ACS or CAD. We will recruit 250 patients to be compared with a matched non-concurrent cohort of 250 clopidogrel-treated patients (standard-of-care). Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) such as all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, coronary revascularisation, stent thrombosis and bleedings over 6 months will be the study endpoints. Among the recruited, high-risk patients will be escalated to ticagrelor and low-risk patients will remain on clopidogrel. The primary objective is to determine whether genetic-guided therapy is superior to standard of care. The secondary objective will determine if clopidogrel treatment in low-risk patients is not associated with a higher rate of MACEs compared with escalated antiplatelet therapy in high-risk patients. Patients will be enrolled up to the group's completion. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Board of the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus (protocol # A4070417). The study will be carried out in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki and International Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice Guidelines. Findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and controlled access to experimental data will be available. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03419325; Pre-results.
