A Reduced Sensitivity for Activated Protein C in the Absence of Factor V Leiden Increases the Risk of Venous Thrombosis

Marieke C.H. de Visser, Frits R. Rosendaal, and Rogier M. Bertina

From the Hemostasis and Thrombosis Research Center, Department of Hematology, and the Department of Clinical Epidemiology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.

Activated protein C (APC) resistance caused by the factor V Leiden mutation is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis. We investigated whether a reduced response to APC, not due to the factor V point mutation, is also a risk factor for venous thrombosis. For this analysis, we used the Leiden Thrombophilia Study (LETS), a case-control study for venous thrombosis including 474 patients with a first deep-vein thrombosis and 474 age- and sex-matched controls. All carriers of the factor V Leiden mutation were excluded. A dose-response relationship was observed between the sensitivity for APC and the risk of thrombosis: the lower the normalized APC sensitivity ratio, the higher the associated risk. The risk for the lowest quartile of normalized APC-SR (<0.92), which included 16.5% of the healthy controls, compared with the highest quartile (normalized APC-SR > 1.05) was greater than fourfold increased (OR = 4.4; 95% confidence interval, 2.9 to 6.6). We adjusted for VIII:C levels, which appeared to affect our APC resistance test. The adjusted (age, sex, FVIII:C) odds ratio for the lowest quartile was 2.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.5 to 4.2). So, after adjustment for factor VIII levels, a reduced response to APC remained a risk factor. Our results show that a reduced sensitivity for APC, not caused by the factor V Leiden mutation, is a risk factor for venous thrombosis.
