Evaluation of the drug-drug interaction potential of treosulfan using a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modelling approach.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The aim of this work is the development of a mechanistic physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model using in vitro to in vivo extrapolation to conduct a drug-drug interaction (DDI) assessment of treosulfan against two cytochrome p450 (CYP) isoenzymes and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates.

Methods

A PBPK model for treosulfan was developed de novo based on literature and unpublished clinical data. The PBPK DDI analysis was conducted using the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) DDI index drugs (probe substrates) midazolam, omeprazole and digoxin for CYP3A4, CYP2C19 and P-gp, respectively. Qualified and documented PBPK models of the probe substrates have been adopted from an open-source online model database.

Results

The PBPK model for treosulfan, based on both in vitro and in vivo data, was able to predict the plasma concentration-time profiles and exposure levels of treosulfan applied for a standard conditioning treatment. Medium and low potentials for DDI on CYP3A4 (maximum area under the concentration-time curve ratio (AUCR_max = 2.23) and CYP2C19 (AUCR_max = 1.6) were predicted, respectively, using probe substrates midazolam and omeprazole. Treosulfan was not predicted to cause a DDI on P-gp.

Conclusion

Medicinal products with a narrow therapeutic index (eg, digoxin) that are substrates for CYP3A4, CYP2C19 or P-gp should not be given during treatment with treosulfan. However, considering the comprehensive treosulfan-based conditioning treatment schedule and the respective pharmacokinetic properties of the concomitantly used drugs (eg, half-life), the potential for interaction on all evaluated mechanisms would be low (AUCR < 1.25), if concomitantly administered drugs are dosed either 2 hours before or 8 hours after the 2-hour intravenous infusion of treosulfan.

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.
