Brief Summary: Rationale

The narrow therapeutic range and wide inter-patient variability in dose requirement make anticoagulation response to coumarin derivatives unpredictable As a result patients require frequent monitoring to avert adverse effects and maintain therapeutic efficacy Polymorphisms in cytochrome P450 2C9 CYP2C9 and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 VKORC1 jointly account for about 40 of the inter-individual variability in dose requirements To date several pharmacogenetic guided dosing algorithms for coumarin derivatives predominately for warfarin have been developed However the potential benefit of these dosing algorithms in terms of their safety and clinical utility has not been adequately investigated in randomised settings

Objective

To determine whether a dosing algorithm containing genetic information increases the time within therapeutic INR range during anticoagulation therapy with each of warfarin acenocoumarol and phenprocoumon compared to a dosing regimen that does not contain this information Secondary outcomes of the study include cost effectiveness number of thromboembolic and bleeding events time to reach stable dose and number of supratherapeutic INR peaks

Study design

This is a two-armed single-blinded randomised controlled trial In one arm intervention patients commencing anticoagulation therapy with either warfarin acenocoumarol or phenprocoumon will be dosed according to a drug-specific genotype-guided dosing algorithm which is based on genetic information clinical data and in the monitoring phase previous INR For the other arm control patients will be dosed according to a non-genotype-guided dosing regimen which does not include genetic information The follow-up period per patient is 3 months

Study population

Newly diagnosed patients of both genders and at least 18 years old who need anticoagulant treatment with either acenocoumarol phenprocoumon or warfarin within the low intensity INR range will be included in the trial Main study parametersendpoints The time within therapeutic INR range in the first 3 months of anticoagulation therapy Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation benefit and group relatedness Six extra blood samples are taken from each participant at the start of the study Patients also have to attend 8 scheduled visits within the 3 months study period and are asked to fill in questionnaires The genotype-guided dosing algorithm is anticipated to improve the accuracy of coumarin dosing and thus improve the safety and efficacy of anticoagulation therapy
