HIV protease inhibitors are substrates for OATP1A2, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 and lopinavir plasma concentrations are influenced by SLCO1B1 polymorphisms.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 are major hepatic drug transporters whilst OATP1A2 is mainly located in the brain but is also located in liver and several other organs. These transporters affect the distribution and clearance of many endobiotics and xenobiotics and have been reported to have functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). We have assessed the substrate specificities of these transporters for a panel of antiretrovirals and investigated the effects of SNPs within these transporters on the pharmacokinetics of lopinavir. METHODS:SLCO1A2, SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 were cloned, verified and used to generate cRNA for use in the Xenopuslaevis oocyte transport system. Using the oocyte system, antiretrovirals were tested for their substrate specificities. Plasma samples (n=349) from the Liverpool therapeutic drug monitoring registry were genotyped for SNPs in SLCO1A2, SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 and associations between SNPs and lopinavir plasma concentrations were analysed. RESULT:Antiretroviral protease inhibitors, but not non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, are substrates for OATP1A2, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. Furthermore, ritonavir was not an inhibitor of OATP1B1. The 521T>C polymorphism in SLCO1B1 was significantly associated with higher lopinavir plasma concentrations. No associations were observed with functional variants of SLCO1A2 and SLCO1B3. CONCLUSION:These data add to our understanding of the factors that contribute to variability in plasma concentrations of protease inhibitors. Further studies are now required to confirm the association of SLCO1B1 521T>C with lopinavir plasma concentrations and to assess the influence of other polymorphisms in the SLCO family.

Project description:What is already known about this subject* There is large interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics of protease inhibitors (PIs) among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals under highly active antiretroviral therapy. * Protease inhibitor have been recently reported to be substrates of the SLCO1B1/OATP1 drug transporter. * A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the SLCO1B1 gene (521T-->C) was associated with plasma levels of lopinavir in HIV-infected individuals.What this study adds* Data on the impact of three SLCO1B1 SNPs (521T-->C, 388A-->G, 463C-->A) on the trough plasma concentration of lopinavir and ritonavir in a cohort of 99 adult HIV-infected Brazilian men under stable highly active antiretroviral therapy. * Evidence that carriers of the 521C allele display significantly higher lopinavir, but not ritonavir plasma concentrations relative to the wild-type TT genotype. * No effect of either 388A-->G or 463C-->A SNPs on lopinavir or ritonavir plasma concentrations. * Further studies are required to confirm the clinical significance of the association between the SLCO1B1521T-->C polymorphism and lopinavir pharmacokinetics.AimsTo investigate possible associations between three SLCO1B1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (388A-->G, 463C-->A, 521T-->C) and lopinavir/ritonavir plasma concentrations.MethodsThe study included 99 human immunodeficiency virus-infected men on stable highly active antiretroviral therapy containing lopinavir/ritonavir. Trough concentrations of lopinavir and ritonavir in plasma were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Genotyping of SLCO1B1388A-->G, 463C-->A and 521T-->C polymorphisms was performed by allelic discrimination using real-time polymerase chain reaction.ResultsThe trough concentration of lopinavir in plasma is significantly associated with SLCO1B1521T-->C genotypes (P= 0.03). There is a significant trend for increasing concentrations of lopinavir from TT to TC to CC genotypes (P= 0.02). Carriers of the 521C allele display significantly higher lopinavir plasma concentrations relative to the wild-type TT genotype (P= 0.03).ConclusionsReduced uptake of lopinavir by hepatocytes in carriers of the 521C allele may account for these results, but further studies to confirm the clinical importance of SLCO1B1 polymorphisms in lopinavir pharmacokinetics are warranted.

Project description:AimsLopinavir (LPV) is not a first-line regimen. According to recent WHO data, LPV usage in low- and middle-income countries accounted for approximately 52% of the adult and 23% of the paediatric protease inhibitor market in 2017. Since LPV is a substrate for the SLCO1B1 (OATP1B1) transporter, the aim of this study was to assess the impact of SLCO1B1 polymorphisms (rs11045819, rs4149032 and rs4149056) on LPV trough plasma concentrations (Ctrough ) in Serbian patients.MethodsPlasma samples from 104 HIV/AIDS Caucasians were collected. LPV Ctrough was quantified using liquid-chromatography-mass spectrometry. Genotyping was carried out using real-time-PCR-based allelic discrimination. One-way analysis of variance, t test and linear regression were used for data analysis.ResultsThe overall mean (SD) LPV Ctrough was 5885 ± 2755 ng/mL. Significant differences were between patients with different rs11045819 genotypes: CC (LPV median Ctrough = 6072 ng/mL, interquartile range (IQR) = 4318-7617 ng/mL), CA (LPV median Ctrough = 4987 ng/mL, IQR = 4300-6295 ng/mL) and AA (LPV median Ctrough = 3648 ng/mL, IQR = 1949-4072 ng/mL) (P = .005). Significant differences were also observed according to rs4149032 genotype: CC (LPV median Ctrough = 6027 ng/mL, IQR =4548-8250 ng/mL), CT (LPV median Ctrough = 5553 ng/mL, IQR = 4300-6888 ng/mL) and TT (LPV median Ctrough = 4408 ng/mL, IQR = 3361-5233 ng/mL) (P = .007). For rs4149056 a statistically significant difference between T-homozygotes (LPV median Ctrough = 5434 ng/mL, IQR = 3855-6830 ng/mL), heterozygotes (LPV median Ctrough = 6707 ng/mL, IQR = 5088-8063 ng/mL) and C-homozygotes (LPV median Ctrough = 13906 ng/mL, IQR = 12946-14866 ng/mL) was observed (P = .002). In multivariate regression analysis, only the SLCO1B1 rs4149056 polymorphism was independently associated with higher LPV Ctrough (β = 2834.5 [1442-4226.9] ng/mL [P = .001]).ConclusionsOur results demonstrate a statistically significant influence of the SLCO1B1 rs4149056 polymorphism on higher LPV Ctrough in Caucasian HIV/AIDS patients.
