Abstract:

CYP3A4 plays a critical role in clopidogrel activation in the liver. The polymorphism ofCYP3A4 may have an important effect on clopidogrel response in patients with cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the impact ofCYP3A4 polymorphism on platelet reactivity after clopidogrel treatment and the outcomes of patients. A systematic literature search (up to 7th October, 2019) was performed on the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, clinicaltrials.gov, and Chinese databases, including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wan Fang Data. Cohort studies or case-control studies evaluated platelet reactivity and patients’ outcomes in different genotype patients. The Review Manager software was used for data analysis, and the NOS scale was used to assess the quality of included studies. A total of 18 articles were included in the Meta-analysis. The results showed the platelet reactivity after clopidogrel administration had no significant difference betweenCYP3A4 variant carriers and non-carriers. The occurrence of composite ischemic events or stent thrombosis had no significant difference betweenCYP3A4 variant carriers and non-carriers, either. In conclusion, there was no significant association betweenCYP3A4 polymorphism and clopidogrel response in patients with cardio-cerebrovascular diseases.
