RESUMEN
Niraparib (Zejula), a selective oral PARP1/2 inhibitor registered for ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer treatment, is under investigation for other malignancies, including brain tumors. We explored the impact of the ABCB1 and ABCG2 multidrug efflux transporters, the OATP1A/1B uptake transporters, and the CYP3A drug-metabolizing complex on oral niraparib pharmacokinetics, using wild-type and genetically modified mouse and cell line models. In vitro, human ABCB1 and mouse Abcg2 transported niraparib moderately. Compared to wild-type mice, niraparib brain-to-plasma ratios were 6- to 7-fold increased in Abcb1a/1b-/- and Abcb1a/1b;Abcg2-/- but not in single Abcg2-/- mice, while niraparib plasma exposure at later time points was â¼2-fold increased. Niraparib recovery in the small intestinal content was markedly reduced in the Abcb1a/1b-deficient strains. Pretreatment of wild-type mice with oral elacridar, an ABCB1/ABCG2 inhibitor, increased niraparib brain concentration and reduced small intestinal content recovery to levels observed in Abcb1a/1b;Abcg2-/- mice. Oatp1a/1b deletion did not significantly affect niraparib oral bioavailability or liver distribution but decreased metabolite M1 liver uptake. No significant effects of mouse Cyp3a ablation were observed, but overexpression of transgenic human CYP3A4 unexpectedly increased niraparib plasma exposure. Thus, Abcb1 deficiency markedly increased niraparib brain distribution and reduced its small intestinal content recovery, presumably through reduced biliary excretion and/or decreased direct intestinal excretion. Elacridar pretreatment inhibited both processes completely. Clinically, the negligible role of OATP1 and CYP3A could be advantageous for niraparib, diminishing drug-drug interaction or interindividual variation risks involving these proteins. These findings may support the further clinical development and application of niraparib.

We developed an efficient and sensitive probe for drug-drug interactions mediated by human CYP3A4 by using midazolam (MDZ) as a probe substrate. Using global analysis of four parameters over several experimental data sets, we demonstrate that the first MDZ molecule (MDZ1) binds with high affinity at the productive site near the heme iron and gives only hydroxylation at the 1 position (1OH). The second midazolam molecule (MDZ2) binds at an allosteric site at the membrane surface and perturbs the position and mobility of MDZ1 such that the minor hydroxylation product at the 4 position (4OH) is formed in a 1:2 ratio (35%). No increase in catalytic rate is observed after the second MDZ binding. Hence, the site of the 1OH:4OH metabolism ratio is a sensitive probe for drugs, such as progesterone, that bind with high affinity to the allosteric site and serve as effectors. We observe similar changes in the MDZ 1OH:4OH ratio in the presence of progesterone (PGS), suggesting a direct communication between the active and allosteric sites. Mutations introduced into the F-F' loop indicate that residues F213 and D214 are directly involved in allosteric interactions leading to MDZ homotropic cooperativity, and these same residues, together with L211, are involved in heterotropic allosteric interactions in which PGS is the effector and MDZ the substrate. Molecular dynamics simulations provide a mechanistic picture of the origin of this cooperativity. These results show that the midazolam can be used as a sensitive probe for drug-drug interactions in human P450 CYP3A4.

PURPOSE: Ceritinib is an ALK receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved as first- and second-line treatment in adult patients with ALK + metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study investigated the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of ceritinib when coadministered with midazolam and warfarin as probe substrates for CYP3A and CYP2C9 activity, respectively. METHODS: This was a phase I, multicenter, open-label, single sequence, crossover DDI study in 33 adult patients with ALK + NSCLC or other advanced tumors. A single dose of a cocktail consisting of midazolam and warfarin was administered with and without concomitant administration of ceritinib. The primary objective was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of midazolam and warfarin. Secondary objectives included pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability, overall response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DOR) of ceritinib 750 mg once daily. RESULTS: Ceritinib inhibited CYP3A-mediated metabolism of midazolam, resulting in a markedly increased AUC (geometric mean ratio [90% confidence interval]) by 5.4-fold (4.6, 6.3). Ceritinib also led to an increase in the AUC of S-warfarin by 54% (36%, 75%). The pharmacokinetics and safety profile of ceritinib in this study are consistent with previous reports and no new safety signals were reported. Among the 19 patients with NSCLC, efficacy (ORR: 42.1% and DCR: 63.2%) was similar to that reported previously in studies of pretreated patients with ALK + NSCLC. CONCLUSION: Ceritinib is a strong CYP3A inhibitor and a weak CYP2C9 inhibitor. These findings should be reflected as actionable clinical recommendations in the prescribing information for ceritinib with regards to concomitant medications whose pharmacokinetics may be altered by ceritinib.

Tacrolimus is important for immunosuppression in kidney transplantation. In this historical cohort and in vitro study, we evaluated the changes in tacrolimus pharmacokinetics early after living donor kidney transplantation and the effects of interleukin (IL)-6 on cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) and cytochrome P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) expression. In the historical cohort study, 22 patients who met the inclusion criteria were classified into CYP3A5 expressors and non-expressors (n = 16 and 6, respectively). The blood tacrolimus concentration per dose ratio (C/D) temporarily increased post-kidney transplantation on days 3-4 only in CYP3A5 non-expressors. The effects of IL-6 on CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 expression were also investigated in vitro using HepG2 and Caco-2 cells. IL-6 induced a significant concentration- and time-dependent decrease in CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 expression in both cells. The mean CYP3A4 expression level at 12 hours after IL-6 exposure (% of 0 hour) was 44.0 and 62.6 in HepG2 and Caco-2 cells, respectively, whereas the CYP3A5 expression level was 30.7 and 52.4, respectively. We hypothesize that CYP3A5 non-expressors might exhibit a temporary decrease in the oral clearance of tacrolimus via an increase in serum IL-6 concentrations early after kidney transplantation. These results may help develop strategies to improve kidney transplant outcome.

Gefitinib (GEF) is the first selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor. It is associated with the occurrence of clinical drug-induced liver injury. Although GEF is metabolized to chemically reactive metabolites by cytochrome P450 3A and 1A enzymes and then conjugated to glutathione (GSH), whether these reactive metabolites contribute to GEF-induced toxicity remains unknown. In this study, we investigated whether GSH depletion can sensitize mice to liver injury caused by GEF. Male C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally pretreated with L-buthionine (S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO) at 700 mg/kg to inhibit GSH synthesis and then orally administered GEF at 500 mg/kg every 24 hr for 4 consecutive days. The coadministration of BSO and GEF increased plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels to approximately 700 U/L and 1600 U/L at 72 and 96 hr after the first administration, respectively, whereas the increase in plasma ALT levels in mice receiving GEF at 500 mg/kg alone was limited, suggesting that GSH plays a protective role in GEF-induced liver injury. Histological examination showed nuclear karyorrhexis and sporadic single hepatocyte death in the livers of BSO+GEF coadministered mice. In these mice, the hepatic expression levels of heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox1) and metallothionein 2 (Mt2) mRNA, caspase 3/7 enzymatic activity, and the amounts of 2-thiobarbiuric acid reactive substances were significantly increased, suggesting the presence of oxidative stress, which may be associated with hepatocellular death. Together, these results show that oxidative stress as well as the reactive metabolites of GEF are involved in GEF-induced liver injury in GSH-depleted mice.

PURPOSE: Given that it has been reported that type 2 diabetes mellitus may affect the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs and that there are still no published population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) analyses in routinely treated patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus as comorbid condition, the aim of this study was to determine PK variability of bisoprolol in 70 Serbian patients using the PopPK approach. METHODS: PopPK analysis was conducted using a nonlinear mixed effects model (NONMEM), version 7.3.0 (Icon Development Solutions). In our patients, a total daily dose of bisoprolol ranged from 1.25 to 10 mg. The drug was administrated orally as a single daily dose or in two divided doses per day. RESULTS: A wide range of the drug concentrations were noted (1-103 ng/mL) in the population consisted of the adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. From a total of 21 separately assessed covariates, our results indicated that only creatinine clearance could have a potential impact on the variability of the clearance of bisoprolol. CONCLUSION: Routine assessment of renal function should be carried out before the initiation of treatment with bisoprolol in order to individualize the dose and to prevent possible accumulation and adverse drug reactions.

Dietary and microbial indoles can act as ligands and activators of pregnane X receptor (PXR), with implications in human intestinal health. In the current study, we examined the effects of simple mono-methylated indoles (MMIs) on the activity and function of PXR, using a series of human hepatic and intestinal cell models. Indoles 1-MMI and 2-MMI strongly induced CYP3A4 and MDR1 mRNAs in human intestinal adenocarcinoma cells LS180, but not in primary human hepatocytes. The levels of CYP3A4 mRNA were increased by 1-MMI and 2-MMI in wild type, but not in PXR-knock-out human hepatic progenitor HepaRG cells, implying the involvement of PXR in CYP3A4 induction by MMIs. Utilizing reporter gene assay, we observed dose-dependent activation of PXR by all MMIs, and their efficacies and potencies were comparable. Tested MMIs also displayed moderate antagonist effects on PXR, revealing about partial agonist effects of these compounds. As demonstrated using the Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay (ChIP),1-MMI increased PXR occupancy of the CYP3A4 promoter. Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer revealed that MMIs are weak ligands of human PXR. Collectively, we show that MMIs are ligands and partial agonists of human PXR, which induce PXR-regulated genes in human intestinal cells.

An intriguing aspect of the clinical activity of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 inhibitors (FLT3 TKIs) is their apparent higher activity against peripheral blasts from FLT3/internal tandem duplication (ITD) acute myeloid leukemia than marrow disease in the same patients. Accordingly, studies showed that the bone marrow microenvironment plays a role in FLT3 TKI resistance, although the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We recently identified a previously undescribed mechanism by which the bone marrow microenvironment can contribute to drug resistance: expression of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). In fact, bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) expressed most CYPs, including CYP3A4. Because hepatic CYP3A4 plays a role in the inactivation of several FLT3 TKIs, we explored the potential role of CYP3A4 in bone marrow microenvironment-mediated FLT3 TKI resistance. We found that CYP3A4 plays a major role in BMSC-mediated inhibition in the activity of 3 different FLT3 TKIs (sorafenib, quizartinib, and gilteritinib) against FLT3/ITD acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Furthermore, clarithromycin, a clinically active CYP3A4 inhibitor, significantly reversed the protective effects of BMSCs. We show, for the first time, that bone marrow stromal CYP3A4 contributes to FLT3 TKI resistance in the bone marrow. These results suggest that combining FLT3 TKIs with CYP3A4 inhibitors could be a promising strategy toward improving the activity of FLT3 TKIs.

The role of Phe213 in the allosteric mechanism of human cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 was studied using a combination of progesterone (PGS) and carbamazepine (CBZ) as probe substrates. We expressed, purified, and incorporated into POPC Nanodiscs three mutants, F213A, F213S, and F213Y, and compared them with wild-type (WT) CYP3A4 by monitoring spectral titration, the rate of NADPH oxidation, and steady-state product turnover rates with pure substrates and substrate mixtures. All mutants demonstrated higher activity with CBZ, lower activity with PGS, and a reduced level of activation of CBZ epoxidation by PGS, which was most pronounced in the F213A mutant. Using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, we compared the dynamics of WT CYP3A4 and the F213A mutant incorporated into the lipid bilayer and the effect of the presence of the PGS molecule at the allosteric peripheral site and evaluated the critical role of Phe213 in mediating the heterotropic allosteric interactions in CYP3A4.

Preclinical drug safety assessment includes in vitro studies with physiologically relevant cell cultures. As an in vitro system for hepatic toxicology testing, we have been generating cell clones of human hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 by lentiviral transduction of phase I cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Here, we present a stable CYP2C19-overexpressing HepG2 cell clone (HepG2-2C19 C1) showing an enzyme activity of approximately 82 pmol x min-1 x mg-1 total cellular protein. The phenotypic stability over several passages of HepG2-2C19 C1 renders them to be a suitable reference cell clone for benchmarking CYP2C19 enzyme activity. In addition, we were interested to analyze acute cytotoxicity of the model drug cyclophosphamide (CPA) metabolized by HepG2-2C19 C1 and by a previously generated CYP3A4-overexpressing HepG2 cell clone. Upon 10 mM CPA exposure, we were able to detect its metabolites 4-hydroxy-cyclophosphamide and acrolein in CYP3A4- and CYP2C19-expressing cell clones, but not in parental HepG2 cell line. XTT and ATP assays showed a modest reduction of cell viability of not more than 50% with high dose (10 mM) CPA treatment. By contrast, dramatic acute cytotoxic effects of CPA were evident by the formation of nuclear γH2AX foci and by increased cell death events. These effects were paralleled by substantial decreases of cell membrane integrity as measured by the trypan blue exclusion test. Our data on CYP enzyme overexpressing HepG2 cell clones clearly show that cytotoxicity of CPA is dramatically underestimated by standard metabolic activity tests. Thus, additional tests to quantitate DNA damage formation and cell death induction might be required to realistically assess cytotoxicity of such compounds.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is the most common cause of acute liver failure and often responsible for drug withdrawals from the market. Clinical manifestations vary, and toxicity may or may not appear dose-dependent. We present several machine-learning models (decision tree induction, k-nearest neighbor, support vector machines, artificial neural networks) for the prediction of clinically relevant DILI based solely on drug structure, with data taken from published DILI cases. Our models achieved corrected classification rates of up to 89%. We also studied the association of a drug's interaction with carriers, enzymes and transporters, and the relationship of defined daily doses with hepatotoxicity. The results presented here are useful as a screening tool both in a clinical setting in the assessment of DILI as well as in the early stages of drug development to rule out potentially hepatotoxic candidates.

Patients with high tacrolimus clearance are more likely to experience transient under-immunosuppression in case of a missed or delayed dose. We wanted to investigate the association between estimated tacrolimus clearance and development of graft interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) in kidney transplant recipients. Associations between estimated tacrolimus clearance [daily tacrolimus dose (mg)/trough concentration (µg/l)] and changes in IFTA biopsy scores from week 7 to 1-year post-transplantation were investigated. Data from 504 patients transplanted between 2009 and 2013 with paired protocol biopsies (7 weeks + 1-year post-transplant) were included. There were no differences in baseline biopsy scores (7 weeks) in patients with different estimated tacrolimus clearance. Increasing tacrolimus clearance was significantly associated with increased ci + ct score of ≥2 at 1 year, odds ratio of 1.67 (95% CI; 1.11-2.51). In patients without fibrosis (ci + ct ≤ 1) at 7 weeks (n = 233), increasing tacrolimus clearance was associated with development of de novo IFTA (i + t ≤ 1 and ci + ct ≥ 2) at 1 year, odds ratio of 2.01 (95% CI; 1.18-3.50) after adjusting for confounders. High tacrolimus clearance was significantly associated with development of IFTA the first year following renal transplantation.

AIMS: We assessed the potential mutual interaction of oral macitentan (cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 substrate) at steady-state with single-dose oral rivaroxaban (CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein substrate) and evaluated the effect of the CYP3A and P-glycoprotein inducer St John's wort (SJW) on the pharmacokinetics of these drugs in healthy volunteers. METHODS: Twelve healthy volunteers completed this open-label, monocentre, two-period, one-sequence phase I clinical trial. The pharmacokinetics of macitentan (10 mg) was assessed on study days 3 (single dose), 15 (steady-state), 16 (impact of rivaroxaban) and 29 (after induction by oral SJW), and of rivaroxaban on days 2 (single dose), 16 (impact of macitentan at steady-state) and 29 (after induction by SJW). Concurrently, we quantified changes of CYP3A activity using oral microdoses of midazolam (30 µg). RESULTS: Rivaroxaban and macitentan did not significantly change the pharmacokinetics of each other. After induction with SJW, CYP3A activity increased by 272% and geometric mean ratios of macitentan AUC decreased by 48% and of Cmax by 45%. Concurrently, also geometric mean ratios of rivaroxaban AUC and Cmax decreased by 25%. CONCLUSIONS: There is no evidence for a relevant pharmacokinetic interaction between macitentan and rivaroxaban suggesting that these two drugs can be combined without dose adjustment. SJW strongly increased CYP3A activity and substantially reduced rivaroxaban and macitentan exposure while estimated net endothelin antagonism only decreased by 20%, which is considered clinically irrelevant. The combination of SJW with rivaroxaban should be avoided.

AIMS: The primary aim of the present study was to quantify the effects of rifampicin, a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inducer, on the pharmacokinetics of the new selective progesterone receptor modulator, vilaprisan. In addition, the effects of rifampicin on the glucuronidation of bilirubin, an endogenous UDP-glucuronosyltransferase family 1 member A1 (UGT1A1) substrate, were explored. METHODS: This was an open-label, two-period study in 12 healthy postmenopausal women. Subjects received a single oral dose of vilaprisan 4 mg in each period. In period 2, administration of vilaprisan was preceded and followed by rifampicin 600 mg day-1 . A subtherapeutic dose of midazolam (1 mg) was coadministered with vilaprisan to monitor CYP3A4 induction. Details of the administration and sampling schedule were optimized by means of a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model. Plasma concentrations of vilaprisan, midazolam, and 1'- hydroxy-midazolam were measured and rifampicin-associated changes in the glucuronidation of bilirubin were determined. RESULTS: As predicted by our model, the coadministration of rifampicin was associated with a substantial decrease in exposure to vilaprisan and midazolam - indicated by the following point estimates (90% confidence intervals) for the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration ratio with or without rifampicin: 0.040 (0.0325, 0.0505) for vilaprisan and 0.144 (0.117, 0.178) for midazolam. Further, it was associated with an increase in bilirubin glucuronidation, indicating that UGT1A1 was induced. CONCLUSIONS: The exposure to vilaprisan was reduced by 96%. Such a reduction is likely to render the drug therapeutically ineffective. Therefore, it is recommended that the use of strong CYP3A4 inducers is avoided when taking vilaprisan.

AIM: We report on two Phase 1, open-label, single-arm studies assessing the effect of osimertinib on simvastatin (CYP3A substrate) and rosuvastatin (breast cancer resistance protein substrate [BCRP] substrate) exposure in patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer who have progressed after treatment with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, to determine, upon coadministration, whether osimertinib could affect the exposure of these agents. METHODS: Fifty-two patients in the CYP3A study (pharmacokinetic [PK] analysis, n = 49), and 44 patients in the BCRP study were dosed (PK analysis, n = 44). In the CYP3A study, patients received single doses of simvastatin 40 mg on Days 1 and 31, and osimertinib 80 mg once daily on Days 3-32. In the BCRP study, single doses of rosuvastatin 20 mg were given on Days 1 and 32, and osimertinib 80 mg once daily on Days 4-34. RESULTS: Geometric least squares mean (GLSM) ratios (90% confidence intervals) of simvastatin plus osimertinib for area under the plasma concentration-time curves from zero to infinity (AUC) were 91% (77-108): entirely contained within the predefined no relevant effect limits, and Cmax of 77% (63, 94) which was not contained within the limits. GLSM ratios of rosuvastatin plus osimertinib for AUC were 135% (115-157) and Cmax were 172 (146, 203): outside the no relevant effect limits. CONCLUSIONS: Osimertinib is unlikely to have any clinically relevant interaction with CYP3A substrates and has a weak inhibitory effect on BCRP. No new safety concerns were identified in either study.

The relative contribution of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms responsible for carvedilol (CAR) oxidation in rats were evaluated in order to compare with that of reported human CYPs responsible for the metabolism of CAR enantiomers. The depletion of CAR enantiomers by recombinant CYPs and the effects of CYP-selective inhibitors on the depletion catalyzed by rat liver microsomes (RLM) was determined. Quinine (rat CYP2D inhibitor) markedly inhibited the metabolism of both R- and S-CAR by RLM. The metabolism of S-CAR was inhibited more than that of R-CAR by furafylline, (a CYP1A2 inhibitor, 53.5% vs 11.3%), α-naphthoflavone (a CYP1A2 inhibitor, 64.5% vs 33.6%), and ketoconazole (a CYP3A inhibitor, 87.1% vs 51.2%). Among the CYPs examined, CYP2D2 showed the highest metabolic activities against both the enantiomers. R-CAR was mainly metabolized by CYP2D2 and CYP3A2. CYP2C11 and CYP3A1, in addition to CYP2D2 and CYP3A2 showed higher metabolic activities against S-CAR than that against R-CAR. These results suggest that CYP2D2 predominantly catalyzed R-CAR metabolism, whereas CYP2D2 and CYP3A1/2 catalyzed S-CAR metabolism in rats.

Cyclophosphamide (CP) is widely used in anticancer therapy regimens and 2-dechloroethylcyclophosphamide (DECP) is its side-chain dechloroethylated metabolite. N-dechloroethylation of CP mediated by the enzyme CYP3A4 yields nephrotoxic and neurotoxic chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) in equimolar amount to DECP. This study aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of ketoconazole (KTZ) on CP metabolism through in vitro and in vivo drug-drug interaction (DDI) research. Long-term treatment of KTZ induces hepatic injury; thus single doses of KTZ at low, middle, and high levels (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) were investigated for pharmacokinetic DDI with CP. Our in vitro human liver microsome modeling approach suggested that KTZ inhibited CYP3A4 activity and then decreased DECP exposure. In addition, an UHPLC-MS/MS method for quantifying CP, DECP, and KTZ in rat plasma was developed and fully validated with a 4 min analysis coupled with a simple and reproducible one-step protein precipitation. A further in vivo pharmacokinetic study demonstrated that combination use of CP (10 mg/kg) and KTZ (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) in rats caused a KTZ dose-dependent decrease in main parameters of DECP (Cmax, Tmax, and AUC0-∞) and provided magnitude exposure of DECP (more than a 50% AUC decrease) as a consequence of CYP3A inhibition but had only a small effect on the CP plasma concentration. Our results suggested that combination usage of a CYP3A4 inhibitor like KTZ may decrease CAA exposure and thus intervene against CAA-induced adverse effects in CP clinical treatment.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Drug-induced nephrotoxicity is potentially lethal. When sodium aescinate is given to surgical inpatients to treat postoperative inflammation and oedema, adverse drug reactions and drug-drug interactions must be closely monitored. CASE DESCRIPTION: We report a case of a 58-year-old man with phalangeal fractures who suffered from acute kidney injury that was most likely induced by the drug interaction between sodium aescinate and ginkgo biloba extract due to the protein-binding and metabolic characteristics of these drugs. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: Close monitoring and the prompt discontinuation of drugs that have high protein-binding capacity and hepatic metabolism are necessary to avoid drug-drug interactions in patients who are treated with sodium aescinate.

BACKGROUND: Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is frequently used when treating cystic fibrose (CF) patients with intermittent Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) lung colonization. However, approximately 20% of the patients progress to chronic infection despite early intervention. The aim of this study, was to investigate the pharmacokinetics of CIP, to evaluate if CYP3A4-related metabolism is involved and to find the optimal dose needed to eradicate intermittently colonizing bacteria in the lungs of CF patients. Methods An open-label, prospective pharmacokinetic study was performed. Twenty-two adult CF-patients were each given 500 mg CIP orally. One blood sample was taken at t = 0, and the following 12 hr, nine blood samples were collected. The optimal dose and interval was then calculated by Monte Carlo simulation. CYP3A4-activity was mesured using the Erythromycin Breath Test (ERMBT). Results A 14-fold variation in AUC for the 500 mg CIP (median 473.5 µg/ml × min), and a 30-fold variation in Cmax for CIP (median 2 µg/ml) was found. For CYP3A4-activity the variation was 8-fold. No correlation was found between the CYP3A4-activity and CIP-concentrations. The probability of eradicating intermittent P. aeruginosa colonization in the lungs of CF patients was found to be 57% (3 doses/day), when 500 mg CIP was given. It was calculated to be 89% (2 doses/day) and 94% (3 doses/day), respectivly if 750 mg CIP had been given. Conclusion A large pharmacokinetic difference of CIP in CF patiens was found, not explained by CYP3A4 variation. CIP should be given at 750 mg two or three times daily to adult CF patients with intermittently colonization. Pediatr Pulmonol. 2017;52:319-323. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

BACKGROUND: Despite decades of clinical success, tamoxifen therapy is complicated by inter-individual variability due to CYP450 polymorphism and resistance attributed to ERα/HER2 crosstalk. Direct administration of endoxifen shows promise in circumventing obligatory CYP450 bioactivation while maintaining efficacy. Separately, disruption of the crosstalk using probe antagonists against ERα (tamoxifen) and HER2 (e.g., lapatinib) has been explored clinically. However, the efficacy of this combination may be confounded by lapatinib, a potent inactivator of CYP3A4/5 which could negate the bioactivation of tamoxifen to the active metabolite endoxifen. Additionally, in a manner analogous to tamoxifen, endoxifen is similarly not immune to the development of ERα/HER2 crosstalk that could result in resistance. Simultaneous antagonism of ERα and HER2 using endoxifen and lapatinib could overcome these problems. METHODS: Metabolism studies were performed in human liver microsomes to determine the extent of inhibition of tamoxifen bioactivation by lapatinib. Synergism of endoxifen and lapatinib was assessed using the combination index design in a panel of cell models exhibiting either a priori ERα/HER2 crosstalk (BT474) or acquired ERα/HER2 crosstalk (TAM-R and MCF-7/HER2). RESULTS: Lapatinib inhibited tamoxifen bioactivation by up to 1.8-fold. Synergistic activity was uncovered for lapatinib and endoxifen against BT474, TAM-R and MCF-7/HER2 models of ERα/HER2 crosstalk. Western blot confirmed that endoxifen and lapatinib disrupted this crosstalk. CONCLUSION: This forward-looking study extends the success of tamoxifen by exploring the effectiveness of combining the next-generation tamoxifen derivative, endoxifen with an anti-HER2 agent to combat ERα/HER2 crosstalk, and at the same time provides a solution to the predicted pharmacokinetic antagonism between lapatinib and tamoxifen.
