Introduction • Aspirin Resistance • Urinary 11-dehydro Thromboxane B2 measurement in Diabetes Mellitus and ACS
ASPIRIN AND VASCULAR DISEASE • ASA weak agent for prevention of vascular disease • Relative risk reduction in MI is 20-25% • Relative risk of cardiac death is 25% • Relative risk reduction in IS is 15-20% (low rates) • Re-stroke prevalence on ASA is 30-40% • ASA safe and inexpensive

ASPIRIN RESISTANCE CLINICAL ASA resistance Persistent platelet reactivity despite ASA use ASA failure Thrombotic event despite ASA use BIOCHEMICAL ASA insensitive thromboxane generation
ASPIRIN RESISTANCE • DRUG RELATED • Pharmacokinetics • Insufficient bioavailability (low dose) • Prevention of access to COX-1 binding site by NSAIDS • Pharmacodynamics • Impaired sensitivity of platelet COX-1 (CABG) • COX-1 gene polymorphism
ASPIRIN RESISTANCE • DISEASE RELATED • PLT reactivity (residual PLT activity) • PLT stimulation by ASA insensitive mechanisms (ADP, shear stress) • PLT stimulation by COX-2 dependent TBX generation (PLT mediated) • PLT sensitising by isoprostanes
Cut-off determination • Studied over 300 apparently healthy adults before and after receiving controlled doses of ASA • Based on the resulting frequency of 11dhTxB2 levels, a cut-off value was established to assess an adequate ASA response at 1,500 pg/mg of 11dhTxB2/creatinine • This cut-off has been re-confirmed in subsequent studies using both healthy and diseased populations before and after ASA ingestion [27]. • Those individuals with urinary 11dhTxB2 levels after ASA ingestion below the cut-off of 1,500 pg/mg are considered good ASA responders while those with levels above 1,500 pg/mg are poor ASA responders (“ASA resistance”).
Atherosclerotic Cardio Vascular Disease (CVD) Chronic, progressive (frequently asymptomatic) disease that may start early in life. Multi-factorial with 2 main components: • Systemic (circulation) • Platelet activation/aggregation (thromboxane-mediated) • resulting in arterial (and venous) hypercoagulability, • endothelial dysfunction, clotting factor activation, etc. • Focal (tissue) • Oxidative & nitrativechronic inflammation (dyslipidemia, oxLDL) macrophage activation, foam cell fomation, lymphocytes (immune response) with plaque formation in arterial wall.

Key Publications on 11dhTxB2 HOPE Study (2002) • Multi-centre study in Canada • 976 aspirin-treated patients who had suffered a previous CVD event • Sub-study of a larger 5000 patient clinical trial on clopidogrel • 11dhTxB2 (Corgenix assay) measured at baseline, then patients followed for 5 years • 488 patients suffered another event (case), 488 did not (controls)
Key Publications on 11dhTxB2 HOPE Study (2002) Results: • Increased 11dhTxB2 predicts increased composite risk of MI, stroke or death • For death in particular, the highest quartile of 11dhTxB2 concentrations equated to a 3.5 fold increased risk • 11dhTxB2 could be used to prospectively identify aspirin resistant patients who may benefit from additional aspirin doses or additional medication

Key Publications on 11dhTxB2 CHARISMA Study (2008) • Follow-up to HOPE (2002) study, in an attempt to validate the findings • Sub-study of main CHARISMA (multi-centre, multi-national 15,000 patient trial on clopidogrel) • Measured 11dhTxB2 (Corgenix assay) in 3261 aspirin-treated patients at least one month after being assigned to placebo or clopidogrel
Key Publications on 11dhTxB2 CHARISMA Study (2008) Results: • Validated findings of HOPE study in this new cohort • 11dhTxB2 is an independent, modifiable predictor of CVD risk • Found that both increased aspirin & statin therapy reduced 11dhTxB2 & risk

CLINICAL INTERPRETATION OF 11DHTXB2 LEVELS PRE & POST ASA TREATMENT AND DECISION MAKING ALGORITHM 11dhTxB2 levels before ASA ASA effect for CVD risk assessment <2,500 OK ASA i n g e s t I o n <1,500 Good response OK Consider: CVD risk factors and ASA response 2,500- 10,000 “Increased Risk” >1,500 Poor response Evaluate: CVD risk factors and ASA response >10,000 • poor COX-1 TxA2 inhibition – modify ASA dose or add other anti-platelet drugs. • Non-platelet COX-2 TxA2 production from pro-atherogenic oxidative inflammation – modify/treat CVD risk factors.
Summary • Up to 30% patients prescribed aspirin may still undergo vascular occlusions • Urinary 11-dehydro-Thromboxane excretion reflects platelet activity in vivo • Measured using TxBCardio assay • Correlates with ELISA assay • Available for automated clinical chemistry analysers.
