Unlabelled: Genotype-guided warfarin dosing have been proposed to improve patient’s management. This study is aimed to determine whether a CYP2C9- VKORC1- CYP4F2-based pharmacogenetic algorithm is superior to a standard, clinically adopted, pharmacodynamic method. Two-hundred naïve patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation were randomized to trial arms and 180 completed the study. No significant differences were found in the number of out-of-range INRs (INR<2.0 or >3.0) (p = 0.79) and in the mean percentage of time spent in the therapeutic range (TTR) after 19 days in the pharmacogenetic (51.9%) and in the control arm (53.2%, p = 0.71). The percentage of time spent at INR>4.0 was significantly lower in the pharmacogenetic (0.7%) than in the control arm (1.8%) (p = 0.02). Genotype-guided warfarin dosing is not superior in overall anticoagulation control when compared to accurate clinical standard of care.

Dietary Supplement Safety in Older Adults: A Review of Published Case Reports.
Sr Care Pharm
January 2025
Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, California.
This review summarizes recent case reports where the consumption of dietary supplements by older adults may have caused an adverse event. In December 2023, PubMed was surveyed for case reports published from 2000 onwards, using two medical subject heading (MeSH) terms, "aged" and "dietary supplements," where the latter was combined with the MeSH subheadings "adverse effects," "poisoning," or "toxicity." Major clinical trials for dietary supplements were identified at
Application of rapid genotyping of Warfarin individualized pharmacogenetic variants in Warfarin therapy.

Laboratory Medicine, First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University, Ganzhou, 341000, China.
Warfarin is the most widely used oral anticoagulant in clinical practice. The cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9), vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1), and cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) genotypes are associated with warfarin dose requirements in China. Accurate genotyping is vital for obtaining reliable genotype-guided warfarin dosing information.

Introduction: Very elderly patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) are at high risk for both ischemic and hemorrhagic events. This study aimed to understand the characteristics and real-world treatment of very elderly patients with NVAF in Japan.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of electronic health records and claims data from acute care hospitals for very elderly patients with NVAF with medical records available on or after their 80th birthday.
Evaluation of the Effect of Risankizumab on the Pharmacokinetics of Cytochrome P450 Substrates in Patients with Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease.
Clin Pharmacokinet
December 2024
Clinical Pharmacology, AbbVie Inc., Dept R4PK, Bldg AP31-3, 1 North Waukegan Road, North Chicago, IL, 60064-1802, USA.
Background And Objective: The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of risankizumab on the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A substrates in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) using a cocktail approach.
Methods: Patients with CD or UC (n = 20) received single doses of probe substrates for CYP1A2 (caffeine 100 mg), CYP2C9 (warfarin 10 mg), CYP2C19 (omeprazole 20 mg), CYP2D6 (metoprolol 50 mg), and CYP3A (midazolam 2 mg) before and after intravenous infusions of risankizumab 1800 mg once every 4 weeks for four doses. Serial blood samples were collected for determination of concentrations of the CYP probe drugs and metabolites with and without risankizumab.
A Comprehensive Clinical Assessment of the LumiraDx International Normalized Ratio (INR) Assay for Point-of-Care Monitoring in Anticoagulation Therapy.
Diagnostics (Basel)
November 2024
Wits Diagnostic Innovation Hub, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg 2193, South Africa.
Background: The International Normalized Ratio (INR) monitors anticoagulant treatment but relies on laboratory-based services. This could limit access to rapid monitoring and increase the diagnostic delay, both of which may be addressed by point-of-care testing (POCT). This study investigated the LumiraDx POC platform for INR monitoring.
