Drug-Induced QT Interval Prolongation and Torsade De Pointes: Identification of Risk Factors

Yıl 2010, Cilt: 2010 Sayı: 1, 49 - 53, 01.01.2010

Öz

A progressively increasing number of non-cardiac agents prolong cardiac repolarization predisposing to polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, termed torsade de pointes (TdP), and sudden cardiac death. Drug-induced QT interval prolongation is considered the most frequent cause of withdrawal or relabeling of marketed drugs. Although the exact mechanisms are incompletely understood, the majority of these agents exhibit direct electrophysiological effects on the rapidly activating delayed rectifier potassium current. Additionally, pharmacokinetic interactions with drugs known to inhibit cytochrome P450 isoenzymes may enhance the torsadogenic potential of these agents. Genetic analyses have identified the subclinical congenital form in 5-10% of patients with drug-induced long QT syndrome. The likelihood of drug-induced long QT syndrome is difficult to be predicted in routine clinical practice. However, clinical history may reveal well-established risk factors that act as “effect amplifiers” making an otherwise relatively safe drug dangerous with regard to risk for TdP. The current review describes the underlying mechanisms of drug-induced QT interval prolongation and TdP as well as the risk factors that predispose to this potentially life-threatening conditions. Kardiyoloji alanı dışında kullanılmakta olan önemli sayıda ilaç, Torsade de pointes (TdP), olarak isimlendirilen, polimorfik ventrikül taşikardisine ve ani kardiyak ölüme zemin hazırlayan kardiyak repolarizasyonu uzatmaktadır Piyasadaki ilaçların toplatılmasının ya da yeniden sürülmesinin en sık nedeninin ilaca bağlı QT interval uzaması olduğu görülmektedir. Tam işleyişleri bütünüyle anlaşılamamasına rağmen, bu ilaçların çoğunluğu gecikmiş düzenleyici potasyum akımını hızlıca etkinleştirerek doğrudan elektrofizyolojik etkiler gösterir. Ek olarak, sitokrom P450 isoenzimlerini baskıladığı bilinen ilaçlar ile farmakokinetik etkileşimleri bu ilaçların proaritmik etkilerini artırabilir. Genetik analizler, ilaca bağlı uzun QT sendromlu hastaların %5-10'unda doğuştan subklinik form ortaya koymuştur. İlaca bağlı uzun QT sendromu ihtimalinin rutin klinik uygulamada tahmin edilmesi zordur. Ancak, klinik öykü, normalde TdP riskiaçısından oldukça güvenli bir ilacı tehlikeli hale sokan “etki yükseltici“ olarak rol oynayan iyi belirlenmiş risk faktörlerini açığa çıkarabilir. Bu derlemede ilaca bağlı QT uzaması ve TdP mekanizmaları ve yaşamı tehdit eden durumlara zemin hazırlayan risk faktörleri ele alınmaktadır.
