Selective COX-2 Inhibitors: Good or Bad Guys? Nimmaanrat S, MD, FRCAT, MMed. PM (University of Sydney)
Basic Science
Pharmacology of Selective COX-2 Inhibitors (COXIBs) n Early 1990, cyclo-oxygenase (COX) existed in 2 distinct isoforms n While COX-1 and COX-2 are structurally similar n COX-2 contains a side pocket
Pharmacology of Selective COX-2 Inhibitors (COXIBs)
Pharmacology of Selective COX-2 Inhibitors (COXIBs)
Pharmacology of Selective COX-2 Inhibitors (COXIBs) n Ratio of affinities to COX-1 and COX-2 determines how “selective” a compound is n NSAIDs inhibit COX-1 and COX-2 with different ratios n Differences in selectivity lead to some variability in Clinical action n Safety profiles n
Classification and Basic Differences of COXIBs Classification Drug Selectivity Chemical structure First generation Celecoxib Rofecoxib 30 272 Sulfonamide Sulfone Second generation Valdecoxib Etoricoxib Lumiracoxib 61 344 433 Sulfonamide Sulfone Phenylacetic acid derivative
COX-1 vs COX-2
Cyclo-oxygenase I (COX-1) n Constitutive enzyme n “House keeping” enzyme n Expresses ubiquitously n Mediates physiological responses
Cyclo-oxygenase I (COX-1) n Only isoenzyme found in platelets n n Thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) formation Also plays a role in n Protection of GI mucosa n Renal hemodynamics n Platelet thrombogenesis
Cyclo-oxygenase II (COX-2) n Highly expressed by cells involved in inflammation (eg. macrophage, monocytes, synoviocytes) n Unregulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharides, cytokines, growth factors, tumor promoters
Cyclo-oxygenase II (COX-2) n “Inducible” n Primarily form responsible for synthesis of prostanoids involved in acute and chronic inflammatory states
COX-1 and COX-2 n However, this distinction is somewhat simplified n COX-2 also constitutively expressed under physiological conditions in severe tissues n n n Brain Spinal cord Kidney Vascular endothelium COX-1 also be unregulated to a certain degree in inflammation
Development of COXIBs
Development of COXIBS n Theoretically, selective inhibition of COX-2 would provide n Anti-inflammatory n Without effects disrupting gastric cytoprotection and platelet function
Development of COXIBS n Hypothesis: -2 will have selective inhibition of COX n Therapeutic n Without actions similar to NSAIDs GI side effects
Thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) & Prostacyclin (PGI 2)
Thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) n Synthesized by COX-1 in platelet Vasoconstriction n Smooth muscle proliferation n Platelet aggregation n
Prostacyclin (PGI 2) n In contrast, PGI 2, a product of arachidonic acid (AA) from COX-2 in vessel walls plays important role in homeostatic defense mechanism that promotes n Vasodilatation n Inhibition of platelet function
NSAIDS and COXIBs n NSAIDs block both COX-1 and COX-2 production to a similar extent n In contrast, COXIBs inhibits PGI 2 production n Thus, COXIBs may create an imbalance between TXA 2 and PGI 2 n This might be the dominant mechanism that can lead to increased risk of thrombosis
Therapeutic Use
Therapeutic Use Postoperative pain n Osteoarthritis (OA) n Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) n Acute gouty arthritis n n Chemoprevention Its role in carcinogenesis, apoptosis and angiogenesis n Celecoxib approved for Rx of familial adenomatous polyp (FAP) n
Therapeutic Use
Clinical Safety
Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract
Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract n Common reported adverse events (AEs) were related to GI tract n Dyspepsia n Diarrhea n Nausea n Abdominal pain n Flatulence
Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract n Upper GI complications have also occurred in pts treated with COXIBs n Perforation n Ulcers n Bleedings n PUBs
Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract n Many large RCTs n n COXIBs caused fewer GI AEs compared to NSAIDs However, most, if not all, of the GI benefits will be lost in pts who take low-dose aspirin
Comparison of Upper Gastrointestinal Toxicity of Rofecoxib and Naproxen in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Vioxx Gastrointestinal Outcome Research (VIGOR) study Group
VIGOR Study n 1 st large scale trial n Significantly fewer clinically important upper GI events (POBs) with rofecoxib compared to naproxen
Gastrointestinal Toxicity with Celecoxib vs Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs for Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis: the CLASS Study: A Randomized Controlled Trial Celecoxib Long-term Arthritis Safety Study
CLASS Study n Celecoxib (greater dose 400 mg bid): a lower incidence of symptomatic ulcers and ulcers complications combined (diclofenac, ibuprofen) n No GI benefit if pts took low-dose aspirin concomitantly
Celecoxib versus Naproxen and diclofenac in Osteoarthritis Patients: Successive Celecoxib Efficacy and Safety Study I (SUCCESS-I)
SUCCESS - I n Successive Celecoxib Efficacy and Safety Study I (13, 274 OA pts) n Celecoxib: significantly fewer serious upper GI events n No statistical significance in pts taking aspirin concomitantly
SUCCESS- I
Gastrointestinal Side Effects of Etoricoxib in Patients with Osteoarthritis: Results of the Etoricoxib versus Diclofenac Sodium Gastrointestinal Tolerability and Effectiveness (EDGE) Trial
EDGE Trial n Cumulative discontinuation rate significantly lower with etoricoxib than diclofenac
Assessment of Upper Gastrointestinal Safety of Etoricoxib and Diclofenac in Patients with Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis in the Multinational Etoricoxib and Diclofenac Arthritis Long-term (MEDAL) programme: a randomised comparison
MEDAL Programme n Largest RCT: 34, 701 pts n Overall upper GI clinical events (POBs / ulcers) and uncomplicated GI events significantly less common with etoricoxib than diclofenac n Benefit maintained in pts taking PPI (proton pump inhibitor) or low-dose aspirin n But no difference in complicated GI events
High-risk Patients n High-risk pts with history of NSAID-related complicated peptic ulcers n Celecoxib as effective as NSAID plus PPI n However, significant proportion of pts still had recurrent ulcer complications over period of 24 wks n n Gastroenterology 2004; 127: 1038 -43. Am J Med 2005; 118: 1271 -8.
High-risk Patients n Celecoxib plus PPI more effective than celecoxib alone for prevention of ulcer bleeding in very high-risk pts n 13 -month cumulative incidence of recurrent ulcer bleeding 0% combined Rx n 8. 9% celecoxib n n Lancet 2007; 369: 1621 -6.
High-risk Patients n Addition of PPI to celecoxib conferred extra GI protection for pts aged 75 yrs or older n But did not seem to be necessary for pts aged 66 -74 n Arthritis Rheum 2007; 57: 748 -55.
GI AEs: Conclusions n Pts with risk factors are in need for “gastroprotective” PPI irrespective of the COX-2 selectivity of applied NSAID n Age > 70 n Past ulcerations n Multiple NSAIDs / aspirin taken esp. high dose n Anticoagulant n Steroid n Positive for Helicobacter pylori
Cardiovascular (CV) System
Cardiovascular (CV) System n n First evidence that COXIBs might increase CV risk emerged from VIGOR study Rofecoxib group: 5 -fold increase in thromboembolic events (primarily acute MI)
Cardiovascular Events Associated with Rofecoxib in a Colorectal Adenoma Chemoprevention Trial: Adenomatous Polyp Prevention on Vioxx (APPROVe)
Cardiovascular (CV) System 3 yr period of study in 2, 586 pts with history of colorectal adenomas n Rofecoxib 25 mg OD / placebo n Rofecoxib pts had greater risk of developing thrombotic events n Relative Risk (RR) n 95% CI n n 1. 92 1. 19 -3. 11 Withdrawal of rofecoxib

The Effects of Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors and Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Therapy on 24 -hour Blood Pressure in Patients with Hypertension, Osteoarthritis, and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Celecoxib Rofecoxib Efficacy and Safety in Comorbidities Evaluation Trial (CRESCENT)
CRESCENT n n n 24 -hr SBP (after 6 wks of Rx) HT, type 2 DM, OA Celecoxib / rofecoxib / naproxen Rofecoxib: significant increased SBP But not by celecoxib or naproxen Use of 3 drugs may result in different rates of CV events
EDGE Study n No significant differences between Etoricoxib n Diclofenac n n Same was true in pts taking aspirin n But in pts on etoricoxib, the non-aspirin group had more MIs
MEDAL Programme Cardiovascular Outcomes n Composite of major thrombotic CV events (at 18 months) similar with etoricoxib and diclofenac n Diclofenac (RR 1. 4)
Cardiovascular (CV) System n Nested case-control study in 486, 378 pts n Elevated risk of acute MI was a “class effect” of COXIBs n All COXIBs associated with higher MI risks compared to placebo / NSAIDs
Cardiovascular (CV) System n Health-register data suggested that increased mortality in pts with previous MI caused by n COXIBs in all dosages n NSAIDs in high dosages
Cardiovascular (CV) System n Meta-analyses of 17 case-control and 6 cohort studies calculated RR factors Rofecoxib (<25 mg/day) n Rofecoxib (>25 mg/day) n Celecoxib n Diclofenac n Naproxen n Piroxicam n Ibuprofen n 1. 33 2. 19 1. 06 1. 4 0. 97 1. 06 1. 07
CV System - Conclusions n Data from large-scale clinical trial and epidemiologic studies n COXIBs and NSAIDs (except naproxen) as a group can potentially increase the risk of CV events n And apparently there is a dose-dependent gradient among the various COXIBs and NSAIDs
Recommendations for the Use of NSAIDs according to Gastrointestinal and Cardiovascular Risks CV risk GI risk Low High NSAID Moderate High NSAID + PPI COXIB + PPI / misoprostol or COXIB NSAID + PPI / misoprostol Avoid NSAID or COXIB
Recommendations for the Use of NSAIDs according to Gastrointestinal and Cardiovascular Risks n a Gastrointestinal risk is arbitrarily defined as low (no risk factors), moderate (presence one or two risk factors), or high (more than two risk factors, previous ulcer complications, or concomitant use of corticosteroids or anticoagulants). All patients with a history of ulcers who require NSAIDs should be tested for H. pylori and if infection is present, eradication therapy should be given. n b High cardiovascular risk is arbitrarily defined as the requirement for low-dose aspirin for primary cardiovascular event prevention (calculated 10 -year cardiovascular risk >10%) or secondary prevention of serious cardiovascular events. n c Naproxen is the preferred NSAID in patients with a high cardiovascular risk. Abbreviation: COX 2, cyclo-oxygenase 2.
