1 Contraccezione e tromboembolismo venoso Ida Martinelli Centro Emofilia e Trombosi Fondazione IRCCS Ca Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico - Milano XXVII Congresso Nazionale FCSA Milano,

2 First report, Lancet 1961 A general practitioner described a case of a 40-year-old nurse who developed bilateral pulmonary embolism 10 days after starting estrogen for endometriosis. Because enovid may produce uncontrollable vomiting and provoke pulmonary embolism and infarction, I would counsel caution in the use of this widely advertised drug

3 The risk of venous thrombosis is associated with both Estrogen Progestin dose type

4 OC estrogen content Change in estrogen dose over the years: 1960s 150 μg fi 100 μg fi 50 μg fi 30 μg fi 20 μg or less 2000 onward

5 Case-control studies DVT PE VTE objectively confirmed in all included cases OR (95%CI) Vandenbroucke (LETS) ( ) Spitzer ( ) Realini ( ) Martinelli ( ) Bloemenkamp ( ) Sidney 2004 (incident VTE) 4.1 ( ) 8.7 (EE=50 μg) 3.7 (EE=30 μg)

6 Effect of estrogen dose on VTE risk Lidegaard et al, Contraception 2002 dose EE OR (95%CI) μg 1.0 (Ref.) 20 μg 0.6 ( ) 50 μg 1.6 ( ) ptrend=0.02

7 OC progestin content Divided into generations based on when progestins were first produced: 1 st generation (1960s): norethisterone, norethinodrel, lynestrenol, ethynodialacetate 2 nd generation (1970s): norgestrel, levonogestrel, norgestrone 3 rd generation (1980s): desogestrel, gestodene - widely used at the beginning of 1990s - 4 th generation (2000): drospirenone - widely used at the beginning of

8 Effect of progestin type Helmerhorst et al, T&H RR 2.0 ( ) rd generation vs 2 nd generation

9 Progestin type and VTE MEGA Study, 1524 patients and 1760 controls van Hylckama Vlieg et al, BMJ 2009 OR (95%CI) Use 5.0 ( ) Levonorgestrel (2nd) 3.6 ( ) Gestodene (3rd) 5.6 ( ) Desogestrel (3rd) 7.3 ( ) Cyproterone acetate (1st) 6.8 ( ) Drospirenone (4th) 6.3 ( )

10 Case-control study, incident VTE Sidney et al, Contraception 2004 cases controls n=196 n=746 OR (95%CI) OC use n (%) Never 31 (16) 141 (19) 1 (Ref.) Former 78 (40) 469 (63) 0.8 ( ) Current 86 (44) 134 (18) 3.0 ( )

11 Risk of VTE during OC use Lidegaard et al, Contraception 2002 OR (95%CI) Non users 1.0 (Ref.) Short users (< 1 y) 7.0 ( ) Long users (1-5 y) 3.6 ( ) Very long users (> 5 y) 3.1 ( )

12 Risk of VTE and duration of OC use Martinelli et al, Thromb Res 2016

13 Risk of VTE and duration of OC use Martinelli et al, Thromb Res 2016

14 Risk of VTE and duration of OC use Martinelli et al, Thromb Res 2016

15 When should we be concerned? - known thrombophilia abnormalities - systemic risk factors for thrombosis - true family history of thrombosis

16 Risk of thrombosis associated with thrombophilia I N H E R I T E D antithrombin deficiency ++++ protein C deficiency +++ protein S deficiency ++ homoz. factor V Leiden +++ homoz. G20210A prothrombin +++ ACQUIRED antiphospholipid Ab ++++ heteroz. factor V Leiden + heteroz. G20210A prothrombin + MIXED hyperhomocysteinemia + high factor VIII + severe mild

17 Relative risk of DVT according to genotype and pill use Martinelli et al, ATVB 1999 OR (95% CI) V- II- / OC- 1 (Ref.) V- II- / OC+ 4.6 ( ) V+ / OC- 2.4 ( ) II+ / OC- 2.7 ( ) V+ / OC ( ) II+ / OC ( )

18 Annual incidence of venous thromboembolism Global 1 : 1,000 age < 45 1 : 10,000 pill use 5 : 10,000 F V Leiden 7 : 10,000 II - G20210A 4 : 10,000 pill and FVL or II 20-30:10,000 (2-3 : 1,000)

19 Is withholding/denying the pill worthwhile? Vandenbroucke et al, BMJ 1994 to prevent 1 VTE we have to withhold (or deny) the pill to 400 factor V Leiden women to find 400 carriers of factor V Leiden (assuming a 4% prevalence in the population) we need to test 10,000 women

21 HRT Oral estrogen-progestin estrogen only Transdermal estrogen-progestin estrogen only

22 Età e TVP Incidence Rate per Males Females >79 (from Anderson et al, Arch Intern Med 1991)

25 Annual incidence of venous thromboembolism global 1 : 1,000 age > : 1,000 HRT use 2-4 : 1,000 F V Leiden 7 : 1,000 II - G20210A 4 : 1,000 HRT and FVL or II 15 : 1,000 (1.5 : 100)

26 Is withholding/denying HRT worthwhile? Vandenbroucke et al, BMJ 1994 to prevent 2 VTE we have to withhold (or deny) HRT to 100 factor V Leiden women to find 100 carriers of factor V Leiden (assuming a 4% prevalence in the population) we need to test 2,000 women

27 TAKE HOME MESSAGE (1) Thrombophilia screening before prescribing hormones is not cost-effective (= should not be done!) can be done in selected cases

28 TAKE HOME MESSAGE (2) Hormone prescription Healthy women, no concerns: ANY Healthy women + comorbidities, family history, mild thrombophilia: - prefer OC with low estrogen content and levonorgestrel (2 nd generation) - prefer transdermal HRT Symptomatic women: contraindication (consider OAT)
