    • The aim of this paper is to review and discuss current methods of risk stratification for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention, emerging biomarkers, and imaging techniques, and their relative merits and limitations. This report is based on discussions that took place among experts in the area during a special CardioVascular Clinical Trialists workshop organized by the European Society of Cardiology Working Group on Cardiovascular Pharmacology and Drug Therapy in September 2009. Classical risk factors such as blood pressure and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels remain the cornerstone of risk estimation in primary prevention but their use as a guide to management is limited by several factors: (i) thresholds for drug treatment vary with the available evidence for cost-effectiveness and benefit-to-risk ratios; (ii) assessment may be imprecise; (iii) residual risk may remain, even with effective control of dyslipidemia and hypertension. Novel measures include C-reactive protein, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A 2, genetic markers, and markers of subclinical organ damage, for which there are varying levels of evidence. High-resolution ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging to assess carotid atherosclerotic lesions have potential but require further validation, standardization, and proof of clinical usefulness in the general population. In conclusion, classical risk scoring systems are available and inexpensive but have a number of limitations. Novel risk markers and imaging techniques may have a place in drug development and clinical trial design. However, their additional value above and beyond classical risk factors has yet to be determined for risk-guided therapy in CVD prevention. © 2012 The Authors Fundamental and Clinical Pharmacology © 2012 Société Française de Pharmacologie et de Thérapeutique.

  • Artemisinin antimalarials moderately affect cytochrome P450 enzyme activity in healthy subjects.
  • 2007

    • The aim of this study was to investigate which principal human cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes are affected by artemisinin and to what degree the artemisinin derivatives differ with respect to their respective induction and inhibition capacity. Seventy-five healthy adults were randomized to receive therapeutic oral doses of artemisinin, dihydroartemisinin, arteether, artemether or artesunate for 5 days (days 1–5). A six-drug cocktail consisting of caffeine, coumarin, mephenytoin, metoprolol, chlorzoxazone and midazolam was administered orally on days −6, 1, 5 and 10 to assess the activities of CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A, respectively. Four-hour plasma concentrations of parent drugs and corresponding metabolites and 7-hydroxycoumarin urine concentrations were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The 1-hydroxymidazolam/midazolam 4-h plasma concentration ratio (CYP3A) was increased on day 5 by artemisinin [2.66-fold (98.75% CI: 2.10–3.36)], artemether [1.54 (1.14–2.09)] and dihydroartemisinin [1.25 (1.06–1.47)] compared with day −6. The S-4'-hydroxymephenytoin/S-mephenytoin ratio (CYP2C19) was increased on day 5 by artemisinin [1.69 (1.47–1.94)] and arteether [1.33 (1.15–1.55)] compared with day −6. The paraxanthine/caffeine ratio (CYP1A2) was decreased on day 1 after administration of artemisinin [0.27 (0.18–0.39)], arteether [0.70 (0.55–0.89)] and dihydroartemisinin [0.73 (0.59–0.90)] compared with day −6. The α-hydroxymetoprolol/metoprolol ratio (CYP2D6) was lower on day 1 compared with day −6 in the artemisinin [0.82 (0.70–0.96)] and dihydroartemisinin [0.83 (0.71–0.96)] groups, respectively. In the artemisinin-treated subjects this decrease was followed by a 1.34-fold (1.14–1.58) increase from day 1 to day 5. These results show that intake of artemisinin antimalarials affect the activities of several principal human drug metabolizing CYP450 enzymes. Even though not significant in all treatment groups, changes in the individual metrics were of the same direction for all the artemisinin drugs, suggesting a class effect that needs to be considered in the development of new artemisinin derivatives and combination treatments of malaria.

  • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in childhood and adolescence - strategies to prevent sudden death.
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: Fundamental & clinical pharmacology. - : Wiley. - 1472-8206 .- 0767-3981. ; 24:5, s. 637-52
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Clinically overt hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common cause of sudden unexpected death in childhood and has significantly higher sudden death mortality in the 8- to 16-year age range than in the 17- to 30-year age range. A combination of electrocardiographic risk factors (a limb-lead ECG voltage sum >10 mV) and/or a septal wall thickness >190% of upper limit of normal for age (z-score > 3.72) defines a paediatric high-risk patient with great sensitivity. Syncope, blunted blood pressure response to exercise, non-sustained ventricular tachycardia and a malignant family history are additional risk factors. Of the medical treatments used, only beta-blocker therapy with lipophilic beta-blockers (i.e. propranolol, metoprolol or bisoprolol) have been shown to significantly reduce risk of sudden death, with doses ≥ 6 mg/kg BW in propranolol equivalents giving around a tenfold reduction in risk. Disopyramide therapy is a very useful adjunct to beta-blockers to improve prognosis in those patients that have dynamic outflow obstruction in spite of large doses of beta-blocker, and its use in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is not associated with significant pro-arrhythmia mortality. Calcium-channel blockers increase the risk of heart failure-associated death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients with severe generalized hypertrophy and should be avoided in such patients. Amiodarone does not protect against sudden death, and long-term use in children usually has to be terminated because of side effects. Therapy with internal cardioverter defibrillator implantation has high paediatric morbidity, 27% incidence of inappropriate shocks, and does not absolutely protect against mortality but is indicated as secondary prevention or in very high-risk patients.
