Association Of Cyp2c19*17 Allele And Choice Of P2y12 Inhibitor On Cardiovascular Outcomes Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, Yash Varma, Bs, Craig R. Lee, Phd, Pharmd, Joseph S. Rossi, Md, George A. Stouffer, Md
Phase 1
Introduction: The CYP2C19*17 allele variant is a gain-of-function polymorphism which increases levels of the active metabolite of clopidogrel.
Objective: *17 is associated with increased bleeding risk during clopidogrel therapy, but it is unclear whether alternative P2Y12 inhibitors, prasugrel and ticagrelor, produce better clinical outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: A single-center observational study was conducted in 928 PCI patients who received CYP2C19 testing and dual anti-platelet therapy (DAPT). Risk of major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and clinically significant bleeding over 12 months were compared across genotype and DAPT groups by proportional hazards regression.

Phase 1
Introduction: Ventricular septal defect (VSD) following myocardial infarction (MI) is a relatively infrequent complication with high mortality. Over time, understanding of the pathology and its management has resulted in improved outcomes; however, controversies remain.
Objective: We sought to investigate the effect of concomitant coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) on outcomes following post-MI VSD repair.
Methods: Electronic search was performed to identify all relevant studies published from 2000 to 2018. After assessment for inclusion and exclusion criteria, 66 studies were selected for the analysis. Data were extracted and pooled for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Results: Average age was 68.7 years …
