DPP-4 inhibitors and heart failure: a potential role for pharmacogenomics.
Heart Failure Reviews 2018 May
There remains an ongoing controversy regarding the safety of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and the risk of developing heart failure (HF). In addition, none of the animal studies suggested a mechanism for the DPP-4 inhibitors and HF risk. To date, advances in pharmacogenomics have enabled the identification of genetic variants in DPP-4 gene. Studies have shown that genetic polymorphisms in the gene encoding DPP-4 may be associated with potential pathways involved in HF risk. This review discusses the contradictory findings of DPP-4 inhibitors and HF and a potential role for pharmacogenomics. Pharmacogenomics of DPP-4 inhibitors is promising, and genetic information from randomized control trials is urgently needed to gain a full understanding of the safety of DPP-4 inhibitors and the risk of HF.
