Use of PPIs during Clopidogrel Therapy Andrew N. Schmelz, PharmD Post-Doctoral Teaching Fellow Dept of Pharmacy Practice Purdue University February 26, 2009
Objectives • Describe the conversion of clopidogrel to its active metabolite • Rank PPIs in regard to 2C19 metabolism • Summarize relevant literature regarding use of clopidogrel and PPIs • Develop a recommendation in response to patient-specific scenarios involving clopidogrel and PPIs
Background • Clopidogrel is a second-generation thienopyridine • Inhibits platelet aggregation by blocking the P2Y12 ADP receptor • PPIs are commonly used in clopidogrel-treated patients • Impaired healing of gastric ulcers AHA/ACCF Consensus Statement UA/NSTEMI Guidelines
Clopidogrel Metabolism • Clopidogrel is a PRODRUG J Clin Pharmacol. 2008; 48; 475
Clopidogrel Nonresponse • Occurrence of thrombotic events in patients treated with clopidogrel • Possible explanations: • Genetic polymorphisms • Competitive drug interactions • Noncompliance • Interpatient variability of the P2Y12 receptor • Indicated by platelet aggregation tests (VASP phosphorylation analysis)
Enzyme Inhibition • PPIs inhibit CYP450 enzymes • Competitive inhibition occurs to varying degrees • Omeprazole • Pantoprazole • Lansoprazole • Rabeprazole Most 2C19 Metabolism Least 2C19 Metabolism Aliment Pharmacol Ther 1999;13(Suppl 3):27-36
PPI Metabolism Aliment Pharmacol Ther 1999;13(Suppl 3):27-36
Literature OCLA Study (omeprazole) • In vitro study measuring platelet reactivity index (PRI) and • PRI on Day 7 • Clopidogrel + PPI group: 39.8% (SD 5.6) • Clopidogrel + PBO group: 51.4% (SD 15.4) J Am Coll Cardiol. 2008 Jan 22;51(3):256-60.
Literature (cont.) Small et al. (lansoprazole) • Lilly study; clopidogrel v. prasugrel • Clopidogrel inactive metabolite • AUC unaffected (not a good surrogate?) • IPA decreased • Prasugrel active metabolite • AUC insignificantly decreased (12%) • IPA insignificantly reduced J Clin Pharmacol. 2008; 48; 475
Literature (cont.) Siller-Matula et al. (esomep & pantop) • In vitro study measuring PRI • Esomeprazole • No difference in PRI from PBO • Pantoprazole • No difference in PRI from PBO Am Heart J. 2009 Jan;157(1):148
Claims Data MEDCO • Clopidogrel alone (n=9800) • Clopidogrel + PPI (n=6800) • RR major adverse cardiovascular events 50% higher in clopidogrel + PPI group • RR AMI 75% higher with PPI addition • AR for CV events in 12 months 25% Circulation, Oct 2008; 118: S_815
Claims Data (cont.) • AETNA J Am Coll Cardiol, 2008; 52:1038-1039
Observational Analysis of CREDO Circulation, Oct 2008; 118: S_815
Patient Case • 65 YOM with documented CAD (in left main and circumflex arteries) s/p drug-eluting stent placement • PMH: DM, PUD, HTN • SH: (+) tobacco 2PPD X 10 years
Recommendations • Avoid routine use of PPIs in patients receiving clopidogrel therapy • Control other risk factors for ischemic events • Counsel patients of s/sxs bleeding • Evaluate potential new therapies for CYP450 interactions
