Evaluation of the association of polymorphisms of the CYP2C8 gene with the efficacy and safety of ketorolac in patients with postoperative pain syndrome

Abstract

To evaluate the possible association of CYP2C8 gene polymorphisms with the clinical efficacy and safety of ketorolac in relation to postoperative pain. The study included 107 patients after video laparoscopic cholecystectomy, who received ketorolac (30 mg 2.0 w/m 3 r/d) as postoperative pain relief. All patients were genotyped for CYP2C8. The pain syndrome was assessed using the visual analog scale, the McGill pain questionnaire. The profile of adverse reactions was assessed by the dynamics of red blood counts, as a possible trigger for the development of gastrointestinal bleeding according to the method of global assessment of triggers (Global Trigger Tool GTT). According to visual analog scale data: in carriers of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080) after 12, 24, 36, 48 hours the intensity of pain syndrome is lower than in carriers of the wild type (p0.05). According to the McGill pain questionnaire, there were no statistically significant differences in pain intensity between the two groups. In carriers of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080), the effectiveness of anesthesia with ketorolac is higher than in carriers of the wild type. Carriage of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) does not affect the risk of developing adverse reactions after ketorolac anesthesia.
