Abstract:Objective To explore the accuracy and clinical value of dose prediction based on warfarin dose calculation formula (PRC model) in Chinese population and warfarin dose calculation formula (IWPC model) in Asian population recommended by the International Association of warfarin genetics and pharmacology.Methods The clinical data of 375 patients with warfarin metabolic gene polymorphism in Qujing first people's Hospital from October 2016 to January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The gene polymorphisms of CYP2C9*3 and VKORC1 were detected by qRT-PCR, and the basic information and clinical medication of patients were recorded. The predicted dose was calculated by two models, and its correlation with the maintenance dose (warfarin dose taken when the international standardized ratio (INR) was stably maintained in the range of 2.0 to 3.0) was analyzed to evaluate the accuracy of the prediction of the two models.Results Whether patients choose to take warfarin for anticoagulation in the actual treatment process is usually not related to the patient's gender, height, smoking history, atrial fibrillation, and low molecular weight heparin calcium injection, but related to the patient's age, weight, body surface area (BSA), initial INR, aortic valve replacement, aspirin, rivaroxaban, and clopidogrel. The frequencies of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genes in 375 patients were in accordance with Hardy Weinberg's law of genetic balance. The frequencies of CYP2C9 gene *1/*1 (AA), *1/*3 (AC), and *3/*3 (CC) genotypes were 93.07% (349/375), 6.93% (26/375), and 0.00% (0/375) respectively, and the frequencies of VKORC1-1639 gene AA, AG, and GG genotypes were 82.66% (310/375), 16.27% (61/375), and 1.07% (4/375) respectively. No matter using the PRC or IWPC model, there was no significant difference in the predicted dose between CYP2C9*1/*1 & VKORC1 AA (n = 289) group and CYP2C9*1/*3 & VKPRC1 AG (n =5) (P >0.05). Among 174 patients with maintenance dose, the maintenance dose of CYP2C9*1/*1 & VKORC1 AG and CYP2C9*1/*1 & VKORC1 GG group were[(3.41±1.01) mg, n = 30] and [(4.75 ± 0.35) mg, n = 2], respectively, which were higher than that of CYP2C9*1/*1 & VKORC1 AA group [(2.59 ± 0.73) mg, n = 136] (P < 0.05); the maintenance dose of CYP2C9*1/*3 & VKORC1 AA group was [(2.00 ± 0.53) mg, n = 5], which was lower than that of other genotype combinations (P < 0.05). The prediction accuracy of PRC and IWPC models were 72.99% (127/174) and 62.64% (109/174), respectively; Pearson correlation coefficient (r1 = 0.546, r2 = 0.567); determination coefficient (R12 = 0.298, R22 = 0.322). There was no difference between the predicted doses of the two models (r = 0.839, P > 0.05).Conclusion Patients with CYP2C9*3 allele are more sensitive to warfarin and required lower warfarin dosage, while patients carrying the VKORC1-1639 G allele required a higher warfarin dosage to reach target effective anticoagulant therapy. The detection results of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms can provide the basis for warfarin dosage adjustment and improve the safety and effectiveness of warfarin anticoagulant therapy.
