Observational StudyPrediction of stable acenocoumarol dose by a pharmacogenetic algorithm.
To develop an acenocoumarol (ACN) dosing algorithm for patients with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism, considering the influence on the stable ACN dose of clinical factors and gene polymorphisms, including CYP2C9*2/*3, VKORC1, CYP4F2*3, ABCB1, APOE, CYP2C19*2/*17, and GGCX. ⋯ The variability in the stable ACN dose was better explained by a pharmacogenetic algorithm including clinical and genetic factors (CYP2C9, VKORC1, and APOE) than by a clinical algorithm, providing a more accurate dosage prediction.
