Effect of Cilostazol on the Pharmacokinetics of Simvastatin in Healthy Subjects.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:We evaluated potential drug-drug interactions between cilostazol and simvastatin, both CYP3A substrates, in healthy subjects. Methods:An open-label, two-period, fixed-sequence clinical study was conducted. Seventeen subjects were given a single oral dose of simvastatin 40 mg on day 1 and multiple oral doses of cilostazol 100 mg twice daily on days 2 to 5 followed by a single dose of cilostazol and simvastatin on day 6. Plasma concentrations of simvastatin and its active metabolite, simvastatin acid, were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for pharmacokinetic assessment. Moreover, serum lipid profiles under fasting conditions were determined. Results:The geometric mean ratios of the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to time infinity of simvastatin combined with cilostazol to that of simvastatin alone were 1.64 (90% CI, 1.38-1.95) for simvastatin and 1.31 (1.04-1.66) for simvastatin acid. In addition, coadministration with cilostazol significantly increased the maximum concentration of simvastatin and simvastatin acid, up to 1.8-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively. However, the effects of a single dose of simvastatin on serum lipid profiles were not affected notably when simvastatin was coadministered with cilostazol. Conclusions:Multiple doses of cilostazol increased the systemic exposure of simvastatin and simvastatin acid following a single dose of simvastatin.

Project description:ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety/tolerability of siponimod in healthy subjects when coadministered with (1) the moderate cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 and CYP3A inhibitor fluconazole (Study A), and (2) with three different CYP2C9 genotype variants (Study B).MethodsStudy A was an open-label, single-dose study comprising periods 1 (14 days; day 1: siponimod 4 mg) and 2 (20 days; day 1: fluconazole 200 mg twice daily; days 2-19: fluconazole 200 mg once daily; day 3: siponimod 4 mg) in healthy subjects (n = 14) with the wild-type CYP2C9 genotype (CYP2C9*1/*1). Study B was a multicentre, open-label study comprising parts 1 (day 1: siponimod 0.25 mg once daily in the CYP2C9*1/*1, CYP2C9*2/*3 and CYP2C9*3/*3 genotypes) and 2 (days 1-2: 0.25 mg once daily; day 3: 0.5 mg once daily in the CYP2C9*2/*3 and CYP2C9*3/*3 genotypes only) in healthy subjects with polymorphic variants of CYP2C9 (n = 24). Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental methods.ResultsIn Study A, coadministration with fluconazole produced an approximately twofold increase in mean area under the curve (AUC) versus siponimod alone (from 1110 to 2160 h*ng/mL), and an increase in maximum plasma concentration (Cmax; from 31.2 to 34.0 ng/mL) and elimination half-life (T½; from 40.6 to 61.6 h). In Study B, the AUCs of siponimod were approximately two to fourfold greater in subjects with the CYP2C9*2/*3 and CYP2C9*3/*3 genotypes, with a minor increase in Cmax versus the CYP2C9*1/*1 genotype. The mean T½ was prolonged in the CYP2C9*2/*3 (51 h) and CYP2C9*3/*3 (126 h) genotypes versus the CYP2C9*1/*1 (28 h) genotype. Siponimod did not result in increased adverse events in healthy subjects in both studies.ConclusionsChanges in siponimod PK, when coadministered with fluconazole at steady-state and in subjects with different CYP2C9 genotypes, indicate that the reduced CYP2C9 enzymatic activity does not affect the absorption phase of siponimod but prolongs the elimination phase. These results confirm the relevance of CYP2C9 activity on siponimod metabolism in humans.
