ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
In AIDS Clinical Trials Group study A5375, a pharmacokinetic trial of levonorgestrel emergency contraception, double-dose levonorgestrel (3â mg, versus standard dose 1.5â mg) offset the induction effects of efavirenz or rifampin on plasma levonorgestrel exposure over 8â h post-dose (AUC 0-8h ). We characterized the pharmacogenetics of these interactions.METHODS:
Cisgender women receiving efavirenz- or dolutegravir-based HIV therapy, or on isoniazid-rifampin for tuberculosis, were followed after a single oral dose of levonorgestrel. Linear regression models, adjusted for BMI and age, characterized associations of CYP2B6 and NAT2 genotypes (which affect plasma efavirenz and isoniazid exposure, respectively) with levonorgestrel pharmacokinetic parameters.RESULTS:
Of 118 evaluable participants, 17 received efavirenz/levonorgestrel 1.5â mg, 35 efavirenz/levonorgestrel 3â mg, 34 isoniazid-rifampin/levonorgestrel 3â mg, and 32 (control group) dolutegravir/levonorgestrel 1.5â mg. There were 73 Black and 33 Asian participants. Regardless of genotype, women on efavirenz and isoniazid-rifampin had higher levonorgestrel clearance. In the efavirenz/levonorgestrel 3â mg group, CYP2B6 normal/intermediate metabolizers had levonorgestrel AUC 0-8h values similar to controls, while CYP2B6 poor metabolizers had AUC 0-8h values of 40% lower than controls. In the isoniazid-rifampin group, NAT2 rapid/intermediate acetylators had levonorgestrel AUC 0-8h values similar to controls, while NAT2 slow acetylators had AUC 0-8h values 36% higher than controls.CONCLUSION:
CYP2B6 poor metabolizer genotypes exacerbate the efavirenz-levonorgestrel interaction, likely by increased CYP3A induction with higher efavirenz exposure, making the interaction more difficult to overcome. NAT2 slow acetylator genotypes attenuate the rifampin-levonorgestrel interaction, likely by increased CYP3A inhibition with higher isoniazid exposure.
