RESUMEN
Although older people are the main users of oral medications, few studies are reported on the influence of advanced age on gastric emptying rate of non-caloric liquids. This study aimed at evaluating the gastric emptying of 240 ml water in healthy older and young adults in fasted and fed state conditions using the established method of salivary caffeine kinetics. The gastric emptying of water was evaluated in 12 healthy older volunteers (mean age: 73 ± 6 years) and 12 healthy younger volunteers (mean age: 25 ± 2 years) with the ingestion of a rapid disintegrating tablet containing 20 mg of 13C3-caffeine. The gastric emptying of water was assessed indirectly by calculating the AUC ratios of salivary caffeine concentrations in specific time segments. Comparison of the AUC ratios showed no statistically significant difference between young and older volunteers in both fasted and fed state conditions (p > 0.05). Advanced age itself seems to have no relevant effect on gastric emptying of water in either fasted or fed state conditions and the phenomenon of Magenstrasse appears to follow a similar pattern in healthy older adults as in healthy younger adults.

Though bioaccumulation of pharmaceuticals by aquatic organisms continues to receive scientific attention, the internal disposition of these contaminants among different tissue compartments of fish species has been infrequently investigated, particularly among fish at different trophic positions. We tested a human to fish biological read-across hypothesis for contaminant disposition by examining tissue-specific accumulation in three understudied species, longnose gar (Lepisosteus osseus; piscivore), gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum; planktivore/detritivore), and smallmouth buffalo (Ictiobus bubalus; benthivore), from a river influenced by municipal effluent discharge. In addition to surface water, fish plasma, and brain, gill, gonad, liver, and lateral muscle fillet tissues were analyzed via isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Caffeine and sucralose, two common effluent tracers, were quantitated at low micrograms per liter levels in surface water, while an anticonvulsant, carbamazepine, was observed at levels up to 37 ng/L. The selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) fluoxetine and sertraline and primary metabolites were detected in at least one tissue of all three species at low micrograms per kilogram concentrations. Within each species, brain and liver of select fish contained the highest levels of SSRIs compared to plasma and other tissues, which is generally consistent with human tissue disposition patterns. However, we observed differential accumulation among specific tissue types and species. For example, mean levels of sertraline in brain and liver tissues were 13.4 µg/kg and 1.5 µg/kg in gizzard shad and 1.3 µg/kg and 7.3 µg/kg in longnose gar, respectively. In contrast, smallmouth buffalo did not consistently accumulate SSRIs to detectable levels. Tissue-specific eco-exposome efforts are necessary to understand mechanisms associated with such marked bioaccumulation and internal dispositional differences among freshwater fish species occupying different trophic positions.

Arsenite is an important heavy metal. Some Chinese traditional medicines contain significant amounts of arsenite. The aim of this study was to investigate subacute exposure of arsenite on activities of cytochrome P450 enzymes and pharmacokinetic behaviors of drugs in rats. Midazolam, tolbutamide, metoprolol, omeprazole, caffeine, and chlorzoxazone, the probe substrates for cytochrome P450 (CYP) s3A, 2C6, 2D, 2C11, 1A, and 2E, were selected as probe drugs for the pharmacokinetic study. Significant decreases in areas under the curves of probe substrates were observed in rats after consecutive 30-day exposure to As at 12 mg/kg. Microsomal incubation study showed that the subacute exposure to arsenite resulted in little change in effects on the activities of P450 enzymes examined. However, everted gut sac study demonstrated that such exposure induced significant decreases in intestinal absorption of these drugs by both passive diffusion and carrier-mediated transport. In addition, in vivo study showed that the arsenite exposure decreased the rate of peristaltic propulsion. The decreases in intestinal permeability of the probe drugs and peristaltic propulsion rate most likely resulted in the observed decreases in the internal exposure of the probe drugs. Exposure to arsenite may lead to the reduction of the efficiencies of pharmaceutical agents coadministered resulting from the observed drug-drug interactions. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Exposure to arsenite may lead to the reduction of the efficiencies of pharmaceutical agents coadministered resulting from the observed drug-drug interactions. The present study, we found that P450 enzyme probe drug exposure was reduced in arsenic-exposed animals (areas under the curve) and the intestinal absorption of the drug was reduced in the animals. Subacute arsenic exposure tends to cause damage to intestinal function, which leads to reduced drug absorption.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the gastroretentive capacity of different formulation principles. This was indirectly determined by the absorption behavior of caffeine from the dosage forms. A slow and continuous appearance of caffeine in the saliva of healthy volunteers was used as a parameter for a prolonged gastric retention time. For this purpose, a four-way study was conducted with twelve healthy volunteers using the following test procedures: (1) Effervescent granules with 240 mL of still water administered in fed state, (2) effervescent granules with 20 mL of still water in fed state, (3) extended release (ER) tablet with 240 mL of still water in fed state, and (4) effervescent granules with 240 mL of still water in fasted state. The initial rise of the caffeine concentrations was more pronounced after the intake of the effervescent granules in the fed state compared to that of the ER tablets. However, tmax tended to be shorter in the fed study arms following administration of the ER tablet compared to the granules. Overall, the application of active pharmaceutical ingredients formulated as effervescent granules seems to be a promising approach to increase their gastric residence time after intake in fed state.

Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models can help to understand the effects of gastric emptying on pharmacokinetics and in particular also provide a platform for understanding mechanisms of food effects, as well as extrapolation between different postprandial conditions, whether standardized clinical or patient-oriented, non-clinical conditions. By integrating biorelevant dissolution data from the GastroDuo dissolution model into a previously described mechanistic model of fed-state gastric emptying, we simulated the effects of a high-calorie high-fat meal on the pharmacokinetics of sildenafil, febuxostat, acetylsalicylic acid, theobromine and caffeine. The model was able to simulate the variability in Cmax and tmax caused by the presence of the stomach road. The main influences investigated to affect the gastric emptying process were drug solubility (theobromine and caffeine), tablet dissolution rate (acetylsalicylic acid) and sensitivity to gastric motility (sildenafil and febuxostat). Finally, we showed how PBPK models can be used to extrapolate pharmacokinetics between different prandial states using theobromine as an example with results from a clinical study being presented.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Viloxazine extended-release (ER) [Qelbree®] is a nonstimulant attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) treatment. In vitro studies suggested potential for viloxazine to inhibit cytochrome 450 (CYP) enzymes 1A2, 2B6, 2D6 and 3A4. This clinical study therefore evaluated viloxazine ER effects on index substrates for CYP1A2, 2D6, and 3A4, and secondarily evaluated the impact of CYP2D6 polymorphisms on viloxazine pharmacokinetics. METHODS: Thirty-seven healthy subjects received a modified Cooperstown cocktail (MCC; caffeine 200 mg, dextromethorphan 30 mg, midazolam 0.025 mg/kg) on Day 1, viloxazine ER 900 mg/day on Days 3-5, and a combination of viloxazine ER 900 mg and MCC on Day 6. Viloxazine ER effects on MCC substrates were evaluated using analysis of variance. The impact of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms on steady-state viloxazine plasma concentrations was evaluated using Student's t test assessing pharmacokinetic parameter differences between poor versus extensive metabolizers. RESULTS: The least squares geometric mean ratio [GMR%] (90% CI) of MCC substrate + viloxazine ER/MCC substrate alone for caffeine maximum concentration (Cmax), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration (AUCt), and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞) was 99.11 (95.84-102.49), 436.15 (398.87-476.92), and 583.35 (262.41-1296.80), respectively; 150.76 (126.03-180.35), 185.76 (155.01-222.61), and 189.71 (160.37-224.42) for dextromethorphan Cmax, AUCt, and AUC∞, respectively; and 112.81 (104.71-121.54), 167.56 (153.05-183.45), and 168.91 (154.38-184.80) for midazolam Cmax, AUCt, and AUC∞, respectively. At steady state, viloxazine least squares GMR (90% CI) for poor/extensive CYP2D6 metabolizers were Cmax 120.70 (102.33-142.37) and area under the plasme concentration-time curve from time 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24 125.66 (105.36-149.87)). CONCLUSION: Viloxazine ER is a strong CYP1A2 inhibitor and a weak CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 inhibitor. CYP2D6 polymorphisms did not meaningfully alter the viloxazine ER pharmacokinetic profile.

Taguchi et al. reported that postmenstrual age (PMA) is a promising factor in describing and understanding the developmental change of caffeine (CAF) clearance. The aim of the present study was to quantify how developmental changes occur and to determine the effect of the length of the gestational period on CAF clearance. We performed a nonlinear mixed effect model (NONMEM) analysis and evaluated the fit of six models. A total of 115 samples were obtained from 52 patients with a mean age of 34.3 ± 18.2 d. The median values of gestational age (GA) and postnatal age (PNA) were 196 and 31 d, respectively. Serum CAF levels corrected for dose per body surface area (BSA) (C/D ratioBSA) were dependent on PMA rather than PNA, which supports the findings of a previous study. NONMEM analysis provided the following final model of oral clearance: CL/F = 0.00603âWTââ0.877GA ≤ 196 L/h. This model takes into account developmental changes during prenatal and postnatal periods separately. The model successfully described the variation in clearance of CAF. Our findings suggest that the dosage of CAF in preterm infants should be determined based not only on body weight (WT) but also on both PNA and GA.

Although great progress has been made in the fine-tuning of diplotypes, there is still a need to further improve the predictability of individual phenotypes of pharmacogenetically relevant enzymes. The aim of this study was to analyze the additional contribution of sex and variants identified by exome chip analysis to the metabolic ratio of five probe drugs. A cocktail study applying dextromethorphan, losartan, omeprazole, midazolam, and caffeine was conducted on 200 healthy volunteers. CYP2D6, 2C9, 2C19, 3A4/5, and 1A2 genotypes were analyzed and correlated with metabolic ratios. In addition, an exome chip analysis was performed. These SNPs correlating with metabolic ratios were confirmed by individual genotyping. The contribution of various factors to metabolic ratios was assessed by multiple regression analysis. Genotypically predicted phenotypes defined by CPIC discriminated very well the log metabolic ratios with the exception of caffeine. There were minor sex differences in the activity of CYP2C9, 2C19, 1A2, and CYP3A4/5. For dextromethorphan (CYP2D6), IP6K2 (rs61740999) and TCF20 (rs5758651) affected metabolic ratios, but only IP6K2 remained significant after multiple regression analysis. For losartan (CYP2C9), FBXW12 (rs17080138), ZNF703 (rs79707182), and SLC17A4 (rs11754288) together with CYP diplotypes, and sex explained 50% of interindividual variability. For omeprazole (CYP2C19), no significant influence of CYP2C:TG haplotypes was observed, but CYP2C19 rs12777823 improved the predictability. The comprehensive genetic analysis and inclusion of sex in a multiple regression model significantly improved the explanation of variability of metabolic ratios, resulting in further improvement of algorithms for the prediction of individual phenotypes of drug-metabolizing enzymes.

As the first-in-class, selective, and potent inhibitor of the isocitrate dehydrogenase-2 (IDH2) mutant protein, enasidenib was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2017 for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with an IDH2 mutation. Known for its interactions with various cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and transporters in vitro, a clinical pharmacokinetics (PK) trial was initiated to assess the impact of multiple doses of enasidenib on the single-dose PK of sensitive probe substrates of several cytochrome P450 enzymes and transporters. In this study, a population pharmacokinetic analysis approach was employed to address challenges posed by high, nonzero baseline caffeine concentrations. Moreover, we integrated full Bayesian inference into this approach innovatively for a more detailed understanding of parameter uncertainty and greater modeling flexibility, alongside Student's t-distribution for robust error modeling in handling the abnormal outlier caffeine concentration data observed in this trial. Our analyses demonstrated that multiple doses of enasidenib altered caffeine clearance to a clinically meaningful extent, as evidenced by an approximate 8-fold decrease. This finding led to a specific recommendation in the package insert to avoid the concurrent use of certain CYP1A2 substrates with enasidenib, unless directed otherwise in the prescribing information. Furthermore, this research underlines the technical benefits of integrating full Bayesian inference and incorporating Student's t-distribution for residual error modeling in the PK field.

A method of drug delivery that could provide control over medicine reaching the bloodstream for systemic circulation would be of immense importance. This work presents a comparative study of the temporal and spatial variation of drugs diffusing passively through two separate routes of human skin, namely intercellular (ICR) and sweat duct route (SDR). An analysis is carried out for two age groups (young < 40 years and old > 60 years of age). Governing equations based on Fick's law for mass transfer have been solved numerically using an in-house developed code. The code has been validated thoroughly with numerical and experimental work from the literature. Each skin route is modeled into three compartments sandwiched between the donor and receiver compartments. To understand the role of diffusion and partition coefficient on drug permeation, four drugs, namely hydrocortisone, trans-cinnamic acid, caffeine, and benzoic acid, are considered. The drug diffusion rate is found greater through ICR as compared to SDR. Further, the amount of drugs diffusing through both routes increases with age. Desirable drug characteristic is inferred to be a lower value of partition coefficient and a higher value of diffusion coefficient. This study could lead to real-time assessment of drugs reaching the bloodstream and beyond.

Understanding cannabis-drug interactions is critical given regulatory changes that have increased access to and use of cannabis. Cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), the most abundant phytocannabinoids, are in vitro reversible and time-dependent (CBD only) inhibitors of several cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Cannabis extracts were used to evaluate quantitatively potential pharmacokinetic cannabinoid-drug interactions in 18 healthy adults. Participant received, in a randomized cross-over manner (separated by ≥ 1 week), a brownie containing (i) no cannabis extract (ethanol/placebo), (ii) CBD-dominant cannabis extract (640 mg CBD + 20 mg Δ9-THC), or (iii) Δ9-THC-dominant cannabis extract (20 mg Δ9-THC and no CBD). After 30 minutes, participants consumed a cytochrome P450 (CYP) drug cocktail consisting of caffeine (CYP1A2), losartan (CYP2C9), omeprazole (CYP2C19), dextromethorphan (CYP2D6), and midazolam (CYP3A). Plasma and urine samples were collected (0-24 hours). The CBD + Δ9-THC brownie inhibited CYP2C19 > CYP2C9 > CYP3A > CYP1A2 (but not CYP2D6) activity, as evidenced by an increase in the geometric mean ratio of probe drug area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) relative to placebo (AUCGMR ) of omeprazole, losartan, midazolam, and caffeine by 207%, 77%, 56%, and 39%, respectively. In contrast, the Δ9-THC brownie did not inhibit any of the CYPs. The CBD + Δ9-THC brownie increased Δ9-THC AUCGMR by 161%, consistent with CBD inhibiting CYP2C9-mediated oral Δ9-THC clearance. Except for caffeine, these interactions were well-predicted by our physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model (within 26% of observed interactions). Results can be used to help guide dose adjustment of drugs co-consumed with cannabis products and the dose of CBD in cannabis products to reduce interaction risk with Δ9-THC.

AIMS: This clinical study was conducted to evaluate the impact of ritlecitinib on the pharmacokinetics of caffeine, a cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) substrate. METHODS: In this single-centre, single-arm, open-label, fixed-sequence study, healthy participants received a single 100-mg dose of caffeine on 2 separate occasions: on Day 1 of Period 1 as monotherapy and on Day 8 of Period 2 after oral administration of ritlecitinib 200 mg once daily for 8 days. Serial blood samples were collected and analysed using a validated liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry assay. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by using a noncompartmental method. Safety was monitored by physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiograms and laboratory assessments. RESULTS: Twelve participants were enrolled and completed the study. Coadministration of caffeine 100 mg in the presence of steady-state levels of ritlecitinib (200 mg once daily) increased caffeine exposure compared with caffeine given alone. Area under the curve to infinity and maximum concentration of caffeine increased by approximately 165 and 10%, respectively, when coadministered with ritlecitinib. The ratios of the adjusted geometric means (90% confidence interval) for caffeine area under the curve to infinity and maximum concentration were 265.14% (234.12-300.26%) and 109.74% (103.90-15.91%), respectively, when caffeine was coadministered with steady-state ritlecitinib (test) compared with its administration alone (reference). Multiple doses of ritlecitinib when coadministered with a single dose of caffeine were generally safe and well tolerated in healthy participants. CONCLUSION: Ritlecitinib is a moderate inhibitor of CYP1A2 and can increase systemic exposures of CYP1A2 substrates.

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND: Glycine transporter-1 inhibitors may ameliorate cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. This study evaluated potential drug-drug interactions with the glycine transporter-1 inhibitor BI 425809. METHODS/PROCEDURES: Interactions with cytochromes P450 (CYP) and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) were assessed in in vitro assays using human hepatocytes and Caco-2 cells, respectively. Pharmacokinetic characteristics of probe drugs were subsequently assessed in a Phase I, open-label, single-sequence crossover study in healthy male participants. Participants received a probe-drug cocktail containing midazolam (CYP3A4), warfarin (CYP2C9), and omeprazole (CYP2C19) and a separate dose of digoxin (P-gp), alone and on a background of steady-state BI 425809 25 mg once daily in 2 treatment periods. Adverse events were monitored. FINDINGS/RESULTS: In vitro assays revealed concentration-dependent induction of CYP3A4 and inhibition of P-gp by BI 425809. In the clinical study, 12 of 13 participants completed both periods. With BI 425809, area under the plasma concentration curve from administration to the last measurement (AUC 0-tz ) and maximum plasma concentration ( Cmax ) for midazolam were lower than when administered alone. Adjusted geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) were 70.6% (63.9%-78.1%) for AUC 0-tz and 77.6% (67.3%-89.4%) for Cmax . For warfarin and digoxin, AUC 0-tz and Cmax were similar with and without BI 425809. For omeprazole, BI 425809 slightly reduced AUC 0-tz but not Cmax versus omeprazole alone. No new safety signals were identified. IMPLICATIONS/CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate induction of CYP3A4 by once-daily BI 425809 25 mg (the assumed highest therapeutic dose) and no meaningful effects on CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or P-gp in vivo.

BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies showed that capmatinib reversibly inhibits cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and CYP1A2 in a time-dependent manner. In this study, we evaluated the effect of capmatinib on the exposure of sensitive substrates of CYP3A (midazolam) and CYP1A2 (caffeine) in patients with mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET)-dysregulated solid tumours. Besides pharmacokinetics, we assessed treatment response and safety. METHODS: This open-label, multicentre, single-sequence study consisted of a molecular prescreening period, a screening/baseline period of ≤28 days and a drug-drug interaction (DDI) phase of 12 days. On day 1 of the DDI phase, 37 patients received a single oral dose of midazolam 2.5 mg and caffeine 100 mg as a two-drug cocktail. Capmatinib 400 mg bid was administered from day 4 on a continuous dosing schedule. On day 9 of the DDI phase, patients were re-exposed to midazolam and caffeine. After the DDI phase, patients received capmatinib on continuous 21-day cycles until disease progression at the discretion of the investigator. RESULTS: A 22% (90% confidence interval [CI] 7-38%) increase in the midazolam maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) was noted when administered with capmatinib, but this was deemed not clinically meaningful. Co-administration with capmatinib resulted in 134% (90% CI 108-163%) and 122% (90% CI 95-153%) increases in the caffeine area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUCinf ) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the last measurable point (AUClast ), respectively, with no change in Cmax . Adverse events were consistent with the known capmatinib safety profile. No new safety signals were reported in this study. CONCLUSION: The data from this study demonstrated that capmatinib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. Capmatinib administration did not cause any clinically relevant changes in midazolam exposure.

Licorice, the roots and rhizomes of Glycyrrhiza glabra L., has been used as a medicinal herb, herbal adjuvant, and flavoring agent since ancient times. Recently, licorice extracts have become popular as dietary supplements used by females to alleviate menopausal symptoms. Exposure to licorice products containing high levels of glycyrrhizic acid can cause hypokalemia, but independent from this effect, preclinical data indicate that licorice can inhibit certain cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes. To evaluate whether clinically relevant pharmacokinetic interactions of licorice with P450 enzymes exist, a phase 1 clinical investigation was carried out using a licorice extract depleted in glycyrrhizic acid (content <1%) and a cocktail containing caffeine, tolbutamide, alprazolam, and dextromethorphan, which are probe substrates for the enzymes CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP3A4/5, and CYP2D6, respectively. The botanically authenticated and chemically standardized extract of roots from G. glabra was consumed by 14 healthy menopausal and postmenopausal female participants twice daily for 2 weeks. The pharmacokinetics of each probe drug were evaluated immediately before and after supplementation with the licorice extract. Comparison of the average areas under the time-concentration curves (AUCs) for each probe substrate in serum showed no significant changes from licorice consumption, whereas time to reach peak concentration for caffeine and elimination half-life for tolbutamide showed small changes. According to the US Food and Drug Administration guidance, which is based on changes in the AUC of each probe substrate drug, the investigated licorice extract should not cause any clinically relevant pharmacokinetic interactions with respect to CYP3A4/5, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, or CYP1A2. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Despite generally-recognized-as-safe status, the licorice species Glycyrrhiza glabra has been associated with some toxicity. Preclinical studies suggest that G. glabra might cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions by inhibiting several cytochrome P450 enzymes. This phase 1 clinical study addressed these concerns by evaluating clinically relevant effects with respect to CYP3A4/5, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP1A2. These results showed that a standardized G. glabra extract did not cause any clinically relevant pharmacokinetic drug interactions with four major cytochrome P450 enzymes.

Little is known about the impact of morphological disorders in distinct zones on metabolic zonation. It was described recently that periportal fibrosis did affect the expression of CYP proteins, a set of pericentrally located drug-metabolizing enzymes. Here, we investigated whether periportal steatosis might have a similar effect. Periportal steatosis was induced in C57BL6/J mice by feeding a high-fat diet with low methionine/choline content for either two or four weeks. Steatosis severity was quantified using image analysis. Triglycerides and CYP activity were quantified in photometric or fluorometric assay. The distribution of CYP3A4, CYP1A2, CYP2D6, and CYP2E1 was visualized by immunohistochemistry. Pharmacokinetic parameters of test drugs were determined after injecting a drug cocktail (caffeine, codeine, and midazolam). The dietary model resulted in moderate to severe mixed steatosis confined to periportal and midzonal areas. Periportal steatosis did not affect the zonal distribution of CYP expression but the activity of selected CYPs was associated with steatosis severity. Caffeine elimination was accelerated by microvesicular steatosis, whereas midazolam elimination was delayed in macrovesicular steatosis. In summary, periportal steatosis affected parameters of pericentrally located drug metabolism. This observation calls for further investigations of the highly complex interrelationship between steatosis and drug metabolism and underlying signaling mechanisms.

The deuterium kinetic isotope effect has been used to affect the cytochrome P450 metabolism of the deuterated versions of substances. This study compares the pharmacokinetics of caffeine, a Generally Recognized As Safe food and beverage ingredient, versus d9-caffeine, a potential caffeine alternative, and their respective metabolites at two dose levels in 20 healthy adults. A single dose of 50 mg or 250 mg of caffeine, or a molar-equivalent dose of d9-caffeine, were orally administered in solution with blood samples collected for up to 48 h post-dose. Plasma concentrations of parent and metabolites were analyzed using validated LC-MS/MS methods. Both d9-caffeine and caffeine were rapidly absorbed; however, d9-caffeine exhibited a higher (ca. 29%-43%) Cmax and 4-5-fold higher AUClast than caffeine, and lower Cmax, lower AUClast, and a 5-10-fold reduction in the relative exposure to the active metabolites of caffeine. Results were consistent in normal and rapid metabolizers, and both substances were well tolerated.

BACKGROUND: Activities of hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) are relevant for hepatic clearance of drugs and known to be decreased in patients with liver cirrhosis. Several studies have reported the effect of liver cirrhosis on CYP activity, but the results are partially conflicting and for some CYPs lacking. OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to investigate the CYP activity in patients with liver cirrhosis with different Child stages (A-C) using the Basel phenotyping cocktail approach. METHODS: We assessed the pharmacokinetics of the six compounds and their CYP-specific metabolites of the Basel phenotyping cocktail (CYP1A2: caffeine, CYP2B6: efavirenz, CYP2C9: flurbiprofen, CYP2C19: omeprazole, CYP2D6: metoprolol, CYP3A: midazolam) in patients with liver cirrhosis (n = 16 Child A cirrhosis, n = 15 Child B cirrhosis, n = 5 Child C cirrhosis) and matched control subjects (n = 12). RESULTS: While liver cirrhosis only marginally affected the pharmacokinetics of the low to moderate extraction drugs efavirenz and flurbiprofen, the elimination rate of caffeine was reduced by 51% in patients with Child C cirrhosis. For the moderate to high extraction drugs omeprazole, metoprolol, and midazolam, liver cirrhosis decreased the elimination rate by 75%, 37%, and 60%, respectively, increased exposure, and decreased the apparent systemic clearance (clearance/bioavailability). In patients with Child C cirrhosis, the metabolic ratio (ratio of the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h of the metabolite to the parent compound), a marker for CYP activity, decreased by 66%, 47%, 92%, 73%, and 43% for paraxanthine/caffeine (CYP1A2), 8-hydroxyefavirenz/efavirenz (CYP2B6), 5-hydroxyomeprazole/omeprazole (CYP2C19), α-hydroxymetoprolol/metoprolol (CYP2D6), and 1'-hydroxymidazolam/midazolam (CYP3A), respectively. In comparison, the metabolic ratio 4-hydroxyflurbiprofen/flurbiprofen (CYP2C9) remained unchanged. CONCLUSIONS: Liver cirrhosis affects the activity of CYP isoforms differently. This variability must be considered for dose adjustment of drugs in patients with liver cirrhosis. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT03337945.
