NSAIDs
Selective COX-2 inhibitors
Developed to avoid side effects of conventional NSAIDs,
including gastrointestinal and renal toxicity
COX-2 is constitutively expressed in the kidney.
regulated in response to alterations in intravascular volume
COX-2 metabolites :maintenance of renal blood flow,
mediation of renin release, and regulation of Na excretion
COX-2 inhibition transiently decrease urine sodium
excretion in some subjects
and induce mild to moderate elevation of BP

Effects of celecoxib and rofecoxib on blood pressure
and edema in patients > or =65 years of age
with systemic hypertension and osteoarthritis.
Rofecoxib caused the greatest increase in systolic BP in
patients receiving ACE inhibitors or beta blockers,
whereas those on calcium channel antagonists
or diuretic monotherapy receiving either celecoxib or
rofecoxib showed no significant increases in BP.
Careful monitoring of BP is warranted after
the initiation of celecoxib or rofecoxib therapy.

Inflammation, Atherosclerosis and Coronary artery disease
Selective COX-2 inhibition improves
endothelial function in coronary artery disease
The patients received celecoxib (200 mg BID)
or placebo for a duration of 2 weeks
in a double-blind, placebo-controlled,
crossover fashion.
selective COX-2 inhibition improves
endothelium-dependent vasodilation and
reduces low-grade chronic inflammation and
oxidative stress in coronary artery disease.

Association between carotid
atherosclerosis & markers of inflammation
in RA patients and healthy subjects
A significant linear trend for increased carotid
artery IMT was associated with increasing ESR
and CRP
Increased carotid artery IMT and the presence of
carotid plaque are associated with markers of
systemic inflammation in patients with RA
Drug insight: cyclo-oxygenase 2 inhibitors

Cyclo-oxygenase (COX) 1 mediates the
production of thromboxane A2 in platelets, leading
to platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction.
Conversely, COX2 catalyzes endothelial
prostacyclin synthesis, which effectively counteracts
thromboxane A2, triggering vasodilation and
platelet inhibition. Selective COX2 inhibitors
decrease prostacyclin production, potentially
disrupting homeostasis and creating a
prothrombotic state.

The VIGOR study findings of increased cardiovascular risk with
rofecoxib were subsequently confirmed by large metaanalyses, observational studies and recent APPROVe trial
publication. The APC trial findings of increased cardiovascular
risk with Celebrex (celecoxib) conflict with those in the ADAPT
trial, the upcoming PreSAP publication, a case-control study
by Graham et al. and prior large clinical trials, meta-analyses
and observational studies of this drug. Therefore, while an
adverse class effect is a possibility for COX2 inhibitors, the
published data are inconsistent.

Improved endothelial function has also been reported with
celecoxib, leading to endothelium-dependent vasodilation,
and associated decreases in C-reactive protein and LDL
cholesterol. The addition of meloxicam to low-dose aspirin and
heparin has improved clinical outcomes after acute coronary
syndromes. These are the first studies suggesting improvement
in endothelial function and reduction of inflammation with
COX2 inhibition. Thus, more randomized controlled trials are
needed to study the relative cardiovascular effects of
different COX2 inhibitors, alone and in combination with
aspirin.

Risk factors for upper GI complications
occurring with NSAIDs
• Patient-related factors:
– age >60 years
– history of peptic ulcer disease/upper GI
complications.
• Drug-related factors
– use of a relatively toxic NSAID
– use of a high dose of NSAID (or two NSAIDs
used concurrently)
– concurrent use of an anticoagulant
– concurrent use of a corticosteroid.

Cardioprotective Rationale
• Cardioprotection
– Inflammation plays an important role in
artherosclerotic disease
– COX-2 is highly expressed in artherosclerotic
plaques
– Pilot studies indicate that Celebrex improves
cardiovascular function in patients with
artherosclerotic disease
Thromboembolic Rationale
• Thromboembolic Events
– Includes CV death, myocardial infarction and stroke
– Current studies (mechanistic) suggest Vioxx/Arcoxia to be
pro-oxidant, leading to inflammation and thromboembolic events
– Current mechanistic studies suggest Celebrex
stimulates nitric oxide production leading to lower
thromboembolic events
– Major epidemiology study (Ray) and VIGOR demonstrate
Vioxx has higher thromboembolic events than NSAIDs
Cardiorenal Rationale
• Cardiorenal Events
– Includes hypertension and edema
– Vioxx induces significantly more hypertension
and edema in treated hypertensive patients vs
Celebrex (as seen in 2 clinical trials)
– Celebrex has a similar cardiorenal profile
compared to NSAIDs
