CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function is Associated with Increased Risk of Ischemic Stroke after Transient Ischemic Attack in Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease

Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is responsible for 8-10% of acute ischemic strokes, and resistance to antiplatelet therapy is prevalent. CYP2C19 gene loss-of-function (up to 45% of patients) causes clopidogrel resistance. For patients with asymptomatic ICAD and ICAD characterized by tran...

Description
Summary:Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is responsible for 8-10% of acute ischemic strokes, and resistance to antiplatelet therapy is prevalent. CYP2C19 gene loss-of-function (up to 45% of patients) causes clopidogrel resistance. For patients with asymptomatic ICAD and ICAD characterized by transient ischemic attack (TIA), this study measures the effect of CYP2C19 loss-of-function on ischemic stroke risk during clopidogrel therapy. From a deidentified database of medical records, patients were selected with ICD-9/10 code for ICAD, availability of CYP2C19 genotype, clopidogrel exposure, and established patient care. Dual-antiplatelet therapy patients were included. Patients with prior ischemic stroke, other neurovascular condition, intracranial angioplasty/stenting, or observation time
