Genes, Vol. 12, Pages 1537: Influence of Renal Impairment and Genetic Subtypes on Warfarin Control in Japanese Patients
Kazuyuki Nagatsuka The genotypes of vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1) and cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) can influence therapeutic warfarin doses. Conversely, nongenetic factors, especially renal function, are associated with warfarin maintenance doses; however, the optimal algorithm for considering genes and renal dysfunction has not been established. This single-center prospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the factors affecting warfarin maintenance doses and develop pharmacogenetics-guided algorithms, including the factors of renal impairment and others. To commence, 176 outpatients who were prescrib...
