Pharmacogenetic algorithm-based warfarin dosing

Excerpt from the warfarin dosing guidelines:

Numerous studies have derived warfarin dosing algorithms that use both genetic and non-genetic factors to predict warfarin dose [Article:18305455, 19228618, 18574025]. Two algorithms perform well in estimating stable warfarin dose across different ethnic populations; [Article:18305455, 19228618] these were created using more than 5,000 subjects. Dosing algorithms using genetics outperform nongenetic clinical algorithms and fixed-dose approaches in dose prediction [Article:18305455, 19228618].

The best way to estimate the anticipated stable dose of warfarin is to use the algorithms available on http://www.warfarindosing.org (offering both high-performing algorithms [Article:18305455, 19228618]). The dosing algorithm published by the International Warfarin Pharmacogenetics Consortium is also online, at http://www.pharmgkb.org/do/serve?objId=PA162372936&objCls=Dataset#tabview=tab2. The two algorithms provide very similar dose recommendations.

Approach to pharmacogenetic-based warfarin dosing without access to dosing algorithms

Excerpt from the warfarin dosing guidelines:

In 2007, the FDA modified the warfarin label, stating that CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes may be useful in determining the optimal initial dose of warfarin [Article:17906972]. The label was further updated in 2010 to include a table (Table 1) describing recommendations for initial dosing ranges for patients with different combinations of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes.

Genetics-based algorithms also better predict warfarin dose than the FDA-approved warfarin label table [Article:21272753]. Therefore, the use of pharmacogenetic algorithm-based dosing is recommended when possible, although if electronic means for such dosing are not available, the table-based dosing approaches (Table 1) are suggested. The range of doses by VKORC1 genotype and the range of dose recommendations/predictions by the FDA table and algorithm are shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2 Legend: Frequency histograms of stable therapeutic warfarin doses in mg/week, stratified by VKORC1 -1639G>A genotype in 3,616 patients recruited by the International Warfarin Pharmacogenetics Consortium (IWPC) who did not carry the CYP2C9*2 or *3 allele (i.e., coded as *1*1 for US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) table and algorithm dosing). The range of doses within each genotype group recommended on the FDA table is shown via the shaded rectangle. The range of doses predicted using the IWPC dosing algorithm in these 3,616 patients is shown by the solid lines.

Figure 2 demonstrates that the range of individuals covered by the FDA table is much narrower than that of the algorithm. The article and supplement detail important variables that are not covered by the table that should also be taken into consideration.

Information regarding PGx on FDA drug labels is derived from the FDA's Table of Pharmacogenomic Biomarkers in Drug Labels. Excerpts from the label and downloadable highlighted label PDFs are manually curated by PharmGKB

FDA Label - celecoxib, CYP2C9

The FDA recommends, but does not require, genetic testing of patients from at-risk populations prior to initiating treatment with CELEBREX.

Excerpt from the CELEBREX drug label:

"Poor Metabolizers of CYP2C9 Substrates: Patients who are known or suspected to be poor CYP2C9 metabolizers based on previous history/experience with other CYP2C9 substrates (such as warfarin, phenytoin) should be administered celecoxib with caution. Consider starting treatment at half the lowest recommended dose in poor metabolizers. Consider using alternative management in JRA patients who are poor metabolizers..."

"Celecoxib metabolism is primarily mediated via CYP2C9...CYP2C9 activity is reduced in individuals with genetic polymorphisms that lead to reduced enzyme activity, such as those homozygous for the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 polymorphisms. Limited data from 4 published reports that included a total of 8 subjects with the homozygous CYP2C9*3/*3 genotype showed celecoxib systemic levels that were 3- to 7-fold higher in these subjects compared to subjects with CYP2C9*1/*1 or *I/*3 genotypes. The pharmacokinetics of celecoxib have not been evaluated in subjects with other CYP2C9 polymorphisms, such as *2, *5, *6, *9 and *11. It is estimated that the frequency of the homozygous *3/*3 genotype is 0.3% to 1.0% in various ethnic groups."

"Consider a dose reduction by 50% (or alternative management for JRA) in patients who are known or suspected to be CYP2C9 poor metabolizers."

FDA Label - warfarin, CYP2C9, VKORC1

The FDA recommends genetic testing prior to initiating treatment with warfarin.

Excerpt from the warfarin drug label:

The patient's CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotype information, when available, can assist in selection of the starting dose. Table 5 describes the range of stable maintenance doses observed in multiple patients having different combinations of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene variants. Consider these ranges in choosing the initial dose.

The VKORC1:G-1639A polymorphism is associated with lower dose requirements for warfarin in Caucasian and Asian patients. Increased bleeding risk and lower initial warfarin dose requirements have been associated with the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles. Approximately 30% of the variance in warfarin dose could be attributed to genetic variation in VKORC1, and about 40% of dose variance could be explained taking into consideration both VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genetic polymorphisms. Accounting for genetic variation in both VKORC1 and CYP2C9, age, height, body weight, interacting drugs, and indication for warfarin therapy explained about 55% of the variability in warfarin dose.

For the complete drug label text with sections containing pharmacogenetic information highlighted, see the warfarin drug label. Pharmacogenomics-related dosing information is found in Table 5 on page 27.

Cytogenetic Location: chr10 : q23.33 - q23.33
GP mRNA Boundary: chr10 : 96698415 - 96749148
GP Gene Boundary: chr10 : 96688415 - 96752148
Strand: plus
Product Name: cytochrome P-450 S-mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase, cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9, cytochrome P450, subfamily IIC (mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase), polypeptide 10, cytochrome P450, subfamily IIC (mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase), polypeptide 9, cytochrome p4502C9, flavoprotein-linked monooxygenase, mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase, microsomal monooxygenase, xenobiotic monooxygenase
The mRNA boundaries are calculated using the gene's default feature set from NCBI, mapped onto the UCSC Golden Path. PharmGKB sets gene boundaries by expanding the mRNA boundaries by no less than 10,000 bases upstream (5') and 3,000 bases downstream (3') to allow for potential regulatory regions.

All alleles are displayed on the positive chromosomal strand.
