Influence of CYP2C19 Genotypes on the Occurrence of Adverse Drug Reactions of Voriconazole among Hematological Patients after Allo-HSCT.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of different CYP2C19 genotypes on selected liver function parameters, and ADR occurrence during VCZ prophylaxis in adult patients after allo-HSCT (allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation). CYP2C19 mutations were determined in a cohort of 30 adults using PCR-RFLP methods established by Sim et al. and Goldstein and Blaisdell. The patients' protocol included biometrical and biochemical data, information on the underlying disease, chemotherapy, molds infections occurring during VCZ treatment, adverse drug reactions typical for the use of voriconazole, and probable drug - drug interactions. The observation and reporting of ADR took place from the -1 until the +20th day of VCZ therapy. For statistical analysis the χ2 test was used (p < 0.05). Among the examined patients 23 suffered from at least one side effect during VCZ therapy. Most frequent ADR were gastrointestinal disturbances (n = 15), nervous system (n = 11) and skin (n = 7) disorders. Patients with at least one loss of function allele (*2) were more likely to experience adverse drug reactions than those, with different genotypes. Due to the limited number of patients the result could not be proven with a statistical significance. Previous determination of CYP2C19 genotype may be a useful tool for prevention of adverse drug reactions during VCZ prophylaxis among patients after allo-HSCT.
