ABSTRACT
The common disorders irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can modify the drugs' pharmacokinetics via their induced pathophysiological changes. This work aimed to investigate the impact of these two diseases on pravastatin oral bioavailability. Rat models for IBS and IBD were used to experimentally test the effects of IBS and IBD on pravastatin pharmacokinetics. Then, the observations made in rats were extrapolated to humans using a mechanistic whole-body physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (wbPBPK) model. The rat in vivo studies done herein showed that IBS and IBD decreased serum albumin (> 11% for both), decreased PRV binding in plasma, and increased pravastatin absolute oral bioavailability (0.17 and 0.53 compared to 0.01) which increased plasma, muscle, and liver exposure. However, the wbPBPK model predicted muscle concentration was much lower than the pravastatin toxicity thresholds for myotoxicity and rhabdomyolysis. Overall, IBS and IBD can significantly increase pravastatin oral bioavailability which can be due to a combination of increased pravastatin intestinal permeability and decreased pravastatin gastric degradation resulting in higher exposure. This is the first study in the literature investigating the effects of IBS and IBD on pravastatin pharmacokinetics. The high interpatient variability in pravastatin concentrations as induced by IBD and IBS can be reduced by oral administration of pravastatin using enteric-coated tablets. Such disease (IBS and IBD)-drug interaction can have more drastic consequences for narrow therapeutic index drugs prone to gastric degradation, especially for drugs with low intestinal permeability.
