Evaluation for Potential Drug-Drug Interaction of MT921 Using In Vitro Studies and Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Models.

ABSTRACT: MT921 is a new injectable drug developed by Medytox Inc. to reduce submental fat. Cholic acid is the active pharmaceutical ingredient, a primary bile acid biosynthesized from cholesterol, endogenously produced by liver in humans and other mammals. Although individuals treated with MT921 could be administered with multiple medications, such as those for hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction (DDI) has not been investigated yet. Therefore, we studied in vitro against drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Moreover, we predicted the potential DDI between MT921 and drugs for chronic diseases using physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling and simulation. The magnitude of DDI was found to be negligible in in vitro inhibition and induction of cytochrome P450s and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. Organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B3, organic anion transporter (OAT)3, Na⁺-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), and apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) are mainly involved in MT921 transport. Based on the result of in vitro experiments, the PBPK model of MT921 was developed and evaluated by clinical data. Furthermore, the PBPK model of amlodipine was developed and evaluated. PBPK DDI simulation results indicated that the pharmacokinetics of MT921 was not affected by the perpetrator drugs. In conclusion, MT921 could be administered without a DDI risk based on in vitro study and related in silico simulation. Further clinical studies are needed to validate this finding.

Project description:AimsCanagliflozin is a recently approved drug for use in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The potential for canagliflozin to cause clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs) was assessed.MethodsDDI potential of canagliflozin was investigated using in vitro test systems containing drug metabolizing enzymes or transporters. Basic predictive approaches were applied to determine potential interactions in vivo. A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed and clinical DDI simulations were performed to determine the likelihood of cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibition by canagliflozin.ResultsCanagliflozin was primarily metabolized by uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase 1A9 and 2B4 enzymes. Canagliflozin was a substrate of efflux transporters (P-glycoprotein, breast cancer resistance protein and multidrug resistance-associated protein-2) but was not a substrate of uptake transporters (organic anion transporter polypeptide isoforms OATP1B1, OATP1B3, organic anion transporters OAT1 and OAT3, and organic cationic transporters OCT1, and OCT2). In inhibition assays, canagliflozin was shown to be a weak in vitro inhibitor (IC50 ) of CYP3A4 (27 μmol l -1 , standard error [SE] 4.9), CYP2C9 (80 μmol l -1 , SE 8.1), CYP2B6 (16 μmol l-1 , SE 2.1), CYP2C8 (75 μmol l -1 , SE 6.4), P-glycoprotein (19.3 μmol l -1 , SE 7.2), and multidrug resistance-associated protein-2 (21.5 μmol l -1 , SE 3.1). Basic models recommended in DDI guidelines (US Food & Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency) predicted moderate to low likelihood of interaction for these CYPs and efflux transporters. PBPK DDI simulations of canagliflozin with CYP probe substrates (simvastatin, S-warfarin, bupropion, repaglinide) did not show relevant interaction in humans since mean areas under the concentration-time curve and maximum plasma concentration ratios for probe substrates with and without canagliflozin and its 95% CIs were within 0.80-1.25.ConclusionsIn vitro DDI followed by a predictive or PBPK approach was applied to determine DDI potential of canagliflozin. Overall, canagliflozin is neither a perpetrator nor a victim of clinically important interactions.
