  • Genome-Wide Analysis of Clopidogrel Active Metabolite Levels Identifies Novel Variants that Influence Antiplatelet Response - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 28207573

    ABSTRACT: Clopidogrel is one of the most commonly used therapeutics for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes. However, substantial inter-individual variation in clopidogrel response has been documented, resulting in suboptimal therapy and an increased risk of recurrent events for some patients. In this investigation, we conducted the first genome-wide association study of circulating clopidogrel active metabolite levels in 513 healthy participants in order to directly measure clopidogrel pharmacokinetics. We observed that the CYP2C19 locus was the strongest genetic determinant of active metabolite formation (P=9.5×10−15). In addition, we identified novel genome-wide significant variants on chromosomes 3p25 (rs187941554, P=3.3×10−11)
