Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Histamine 2 receptor antagonists and proton-pump inhibitors, drugs that are widely used for the treatment of acid-related diseases, have different clinical characteristics. The objective of this study was to compare the acid-suppressing effects of ranitidine hydrochloride and those of rabeprazole sodium at the first administration and re-administration after withdrawal. METHODS The study was designed as an open-label, randomized, two-way cross-over trial. Seven Helicobacter pylori-negative healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. Ranitidine hydrochloride (300 mg/day) or rabeprazole sodium (20 mg/day) was administered from days 1 to 7 and from days 11 to 13. The percentage of time with gastric pH < 4 and the median gastric pH were evaluated for 15 consecutive days by a Bravo capsule fixed to the stomach. RESULTS On day 1, there was no significant difference between the acid-suppressing effects of the two drugs (ranitidine vs rabeprazole: not significant). Although rabeprazole sodium maintained a potent and stable effect from days 2 to 7 (ranitidine vs rabeprazole: P < 0.05), the effect of ranitidine hydrochloride was attenuated after day 4. In addition, the effect of ranitidine hydrochloride at re-administration was attenuated (days 11, 12, and 13 vs pre-administration: not significant). CONCLUSION In view of our observations, we expect symptoms associated with gastric acidity to be more adequately controlled with rabeprazole sodium in the short term when compared to ranitidine hydrochloride.

Abstract
AIMS The aim was to explore the role of CYP2C19 polymorphism in short-term rabeprazole-based triple therapy against Helicobacter pylori infection. METHODS Patients with H. pylori infection were tested for CYP2C19 genotype as poor metabolizers (PMs) or extensive metabolizers (EMs, homozygous EM or heterozygous EM) and given rabeprazole for 7 days. Antibiotics (clarithromycin and amoxicillin) were given on days 1-4, days 4-7, or days 1-7. A direct link model with an effect compartment was used in the population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic analysis. The status of H. pylori infection was evaluated. RESULTS Rabeprazole clearance was lower in CYP2C19 PMs than in EMs (with average values of 10.7 vs. 16.8 l h(-1) in PMs and EMs, respectively), resulting in higher plasma levels in the former group. The values of EC(50) and k(eo) of gastrin response increased with multiple doses of rabeprazole. The k(eo) values were lower in CYP2C19 PMs than in EMs on day 1 (0.012 vs. 0.017 x 10(-4) l min(-1)), and higher than in EMs on day 4 (0.804 vs. 0.169 x 10(-4) l min(-1)) of rabeprazole treatment. The predicted gastrin-time profile showed a higher response in CYP2C19 PMs than in EMs on days 4 and 7. Helicobacter pylori was eradicated in all CYP2C19 PMs except in one patient infected by a resistant strain. In contrast, in CYP2C19 EMs the eradication rates ranged from 58 to 85%. CONCLUSIONS CYP2C19 genotypes play a role in H. pylori eradication therapy. Rabeprazole-based short-term triple therapy may be applicable in CYP2C19 PMs for H. pylori eradication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE CYP2C19 polymorphisms have been inconsistently reported to associate with the efficacy of proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-based triple therapies for eradicating Helicobacter pylori infection. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine whether CYP2C19 polymorphism affect H. pylori eradication rates obtained with first-line PPI-based triple therapies. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted up to July 2007 using Medline, PubMed, EMBase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), ISI Web of Science, CNKI (Chinese), and Wanfang (Chinese) digital database. MeSH terms and keywords included proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole, lansoprazole, rabeprazole, pantoprazole, or esomeprazole, cytochrome P4502C19 or CYP2C19, and Helicobacter pylori or H. pylori. Twenty articles met the inclusion criteria, and were included in the meta-analysis by using Review Manager 4.2.8. RESULTS Eradication rates were significantly different between poor metabolizers (PM) and heterozygous extensive metabolizers (HetEM) (odds ratio (OR) = 1.73, p = .002) and between PM and homozygous extensive metabolizers (HomEM) (OR = 2.79, p < .0001). Moreover, eradication rates were also significant difference between HetEM and HomEM (OR = 2.00, p < .0001). Triple omeprazole and lansoprazole therapies achieved higher H. pylori eradication rates in PM than in HomEM (OR = 4.28, p = .0005 for omeprazole and OR = 3.06, p = .001 for lansoprazole), and higher in HetEM than those in HomEM (OR = 3.22, p < .0001 for omeprazole and OR = 1.95, p = .040 for lansoprazole). Rabeprazole therapies had no significant effect on H. pylori eradication rates (between PM and HomEM, OR = 1.35, p = .610 and between HetEM and HomEM, OR = 1.57, p = .190). No significant difference in H. pylori eradication rates between PM and HetEM was observed in the three individual PPI therapies. CONCLUSION The efficacy of omeprazole- and lansoprazole-based first-line triple therapies at the standard doses is dependent on CYP2C19 genotype status, which appears not to affect the efficacy of the regimens including rabeprazole.

Abstract
AIM Comparative potency of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) is an important clinical issue. Most available trials have compared the different PPIs at one or a few selected specific dosages, making it difficult to derive quantitative equivalence dosages. Here we derived PPI dose equivalents based on a comprehensive assessment of dose-dependent effects on intragastric pH. METHODS All available clinical studies reporting the effects of PPIs on mean 24-h intragastric pH were sought from electronic databases including Medline. Studies included were restricted to those targeting the Caucasian population, and healthy volunteers or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients. The dose-effect relationships for mean 24-h intragastric pH and for percentage of time with pH > 4 in 24 h were analyzed for each PPI using pharmacodynamic modeling with NONMEM and a model integrating all available data. RESULTS Fifty-seven studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Based on the mean 24-h gastric pH, the relative potencies of the five PPIs compared to omeprazole were 0.23, 0.90, 1.00, 1.60, and 1.82 for pantoprazole, lansoprazole, omeprazole, esomeprazole, and rabeprazole, respectively. Compared with healthy volunteers, patients with GERD needed a 1.9-fold higher dose and Helicobacter pylori-positive individuals needed only about 20% of the dose to achieve a given increase in mean 24-h intragastric pH. CONCLUSION The present meta-analysis provides quantitative estimates on clinical potency of individual PPIs that may be helpful when switching between PPIs and for assessing the cost-effectiveness of specific PPIs. However, our estimates must be viewed with caution because only a limited dose range has been tested and not exactly the same study conditions were applied for the different substances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The evidence on whether high-dose proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) increase cure rates of Helicobacter pylori treatment has not been previously assessed. AIM To evaluate the evidence on the usefulness of high-dose PPI in standard triple therapy by performing a systematic review and a meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic search was performed in multiple databases and in the abstracts submitted to the Digestive Diseases Week, the European Helicobacter Study Group congress and the United European Gastroenterology Week. Randomized trials comparing a standard dose of a PPI with high-dose PPI both twice a day in triple therapy combining a PPI plus clarithromycin and either amoxicillin or metronidazole were selected. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for all comparisons were calculated using Review Manager. RESULTS Six studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. All used triple therapy for 7 days. A mean intention-to-treat cure rate of 82% was achieved with high-dose PPI and one of 74% with standard dose (RR: 1.09; 95% CI: 1.01-1.17). Subgroup analysis showed that the maximum increase was observed when the PPI compared were omeprazole 20 mg or pantoprazole 40 mg vs. esomeprazole 40 mg. CONCLUSION High-dose PPI seems more effective than standard-dose for curing H. pylori infection in 7-day triple therapy.

Abstract
The paper is to review the clinical and pathophysiologic differences between of nonerosive reflux disease (NERD) and reflux esophagitis (RE), and to propose a treatment strategy for NERD, especially for patients in Asia. A Medline search was performed regarding the clinical and pathophysiologic differences between NERD and RE, and treatment of NERD and RE. The characteristics of NERD patients in Asia are as follows: (1) high proportion of female patients, (2) low frequency of hiatal hernia, (3) high frequency of H pylori infection, (4) severe glandular atrophy of the gastric mucosa, and (5) frequent resistance to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. In Asian NERD patients, exposure of the esophagus to acid is not increased, and esophageal motility is normal. These characteristics are similar to those of patients in Western countries. Our recommended first-choice treatment is administration of PPI in combination with a prokinetic agent. However, at present, because there is limited evidence regarding effective treatments for NERD, it is best to try several different treatment strategies to find the best treatment for each patient.

Abstract
NSAIDs are widely prescribed for the treatment of pain, inflammation and rheumatic disorders, but their use is associated with adverse gastrointestinal effects, ranging from dyspeptic symptoms and peptic ulcers to more serious complications. Elderly patients are at high risk of experiencing NSAID-induced gastrointestinal tract injury and should be considered candidates for prophylactic pharmacological therapy. In studies conducted in adult patients, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) such as esomeprazole have been shown to prevent or reduce NSAID-induced gastrointestinal injury. The beneficial effects of esomeprazole can be ascribed largely to its ability to maintain sustained inhibition of gastric acid secretion, although there is evidence to suggest that pharmacodynamic properties unrelated to acid inhibition may also contribute to the gastroprotective effects of this agent. Although there are limited data on the use of esomeprazole specifically in elderly patient populations, studies of patients at high risk of NSAID-induced gastrointestinal toxicity because of advanced age indicate that this PPI is both effective and well tolerated when administered in conjunction with NSAIDs. Thus, esomeprazole can be regarded as a useful option for prophylactic therapy in elderly patients receiving long-term NSAID therapy.

Abstract
AIM: To compare the antisecretory activity and plasma drug concentrations of a single oral dose of 10 mg lafutidine, a novel H2 receptor antagonist, with those of the proton pump inhibitor lansoprazole (LPZ) 30 mg.
METHODS: Ten volunteers without H pylori infection participated in this crossover study comparing lafutidine 10 mg with LPZ 30 mg. Intragastric pH was monitored for 6 h in all participants, and blood samples were collected from four randomly selected individuals after single-dose administration of each drug.
RESULTS: The median intragastric pH was significantly higher in individuals who received lafutidine 10 mg than in those who received LPZ 30 mg 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 h after administration. Maximal plasma drug concentration was reached more promptly with lafutidine 10 mg than with LPZ 30 mg.
CONCLUSION: In H pylori-negative individuals, gastric acid secretion is more markedly inhibited by lafutidine than by LPZ.

Abstract
AIM: To compare rabeprazole (RPZ; 10 mg) with Lansoprazole orally disintegrating tablets (LPZ; 30 mg OD) in terms of antisecretory activity and blood drug concentration after a single dose.
METHODS: Eight H pylori-negative cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 extensive metabolizers were assigned to receive a single oral dose of RPZ 10 mg or LPZ 30 mg OD. Twelve hour intragastric pH monitoring was performed on the day of treatment. Blood samples were also collected after the administration of each drug.
RESULTS: LPZ 30 mg OD induced a significantly earlier rise in blood drug concentration than RPZ 10 mg; consequently, LPZ 30 mg OD induced a significantly earlier rise in median pH in the third and fourth hours of the study.
CONCLUSION: In H pylori-negative CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers, LPZ 30 mg OD induced a significantly faster inhibition of gastric acid secretion than RPZ 10 mg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Up to present, omeprazole plus two antibiotics are used for Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy . Few studies have compared double-dose new-generation, proton pump inhibitors (PPI) with omeprazole. Therefore, we conducted a randomized, prospective study to evaluate differences in H. pylori eradication rates by PPI type. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between January 2006 and December 2006, 576 consecutive patients with proven H. pylori infection were enrolled prospectively. Four different PPIs [omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d. (old generation), or pantoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., rabeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., or esomeprazole 40 mg b.i.d. (new generation)] were added to clarithromycin (500 mg b.i.d.) and amoxicillin (1 g b.i.d.) for 1 week. RESULTS By intention-to-treat analysis, no difference was found between the eradication rates of these four PPIs: 64.9% (omeprazole, n = 148), 69.3% (pantoprazole, n = 140), 69.3% (rabeprazole, n = 140), and 72.9% (esomoprazole, n = 148). When eradication rates were analyzed according to whether patients had an ulcer or not on a per-protocol basis, no difference was found between the eradication rates of the four PPIs. However, side-effects were more common in the esomeprazole-based triple therapy group than in the other groups (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS No convincing evidence was obtained that double-dose new-generation PPIs have better H. pylori eradication rates and tolerability than omeprazole.

Abstract
The eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori by the triple therapy consisting of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and two antimicrobial agents are mainly influenced by bacterial susceptibility to antimicrobial agents and magnitude of acid inhibition during the treatment with a PPI. Acid inhibition during the treatment is affected by the dosing schemes of acid inhibitory drugs (i.e., PPI), genotypes of drug-metabolizing enzymes (i.e., CYP450 2C19), drug transporters (i.e., multi-drug resistant transporter-1) and inflammatory cytokines (i.e., IL-1 beta). Modification of dosing schedules of a PPI, such as frequent PPI dosing and concomitant dosing with a histamine 2-receptor antagonist, could overcome these genetics-related differences in therapeutic effectiveness. For attaining higher eradication rates, the tailored regimen based on the relevant pharmacogenomics is preferable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM To evaluate the optimal dosage of rabeprazole for proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) testing of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and to test the influence of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 polymorphism in a population with a high prevalence of people who metabolize PPI poorly. METHODS In this randomized, open-label trial, patients with symptoms suggestive of GERD were randomized to receive a 2-week test with 20- or 40-mg rabeprazole after diagnostic endoscopy. Symptom response was assessed with a four-grade daily record; in addition, DNA from peripheral blood leukocytes was genotyped for CYP2C19 polymorphism with the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. RESULTS Of the 164 patients who completed the study, 69 (42.1%) were endoscopically positive for esophagitis; the remaining 95 (57.9%) were diagnosed with endoscopy-negative reflux disease. Based on the best cut-off value for 50% symptom reduction, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy for detecting erosive esophagitis were 68%, 70%, 66%, 72%, and 69%, respectively, for the 20-mg regimen, and 84%, 71%, 64%, 88%, and 76%, respectively, for the 40-mg regimen, a non-significant difference. Regarding the genotype, 60 (39%) patients had two wild-type alleles, 63 (40.9%) had one variant allele, and 31 (20.1%) had two variant CYP2C19 alleles. The presence of a variant allele did not alter the diagnostic efficacy of PPI testing. CONCLUSIONS Both dose levels of rabeprazole proved efficacious in the diagnosis of GERD. Various measures of test accuracy were unrelated to the status of the CYP2C19 genotype.

Abstract
Medications to address gastrointestinal disorders are among the most commonly dispensed somatic medications. The authors examine proton pump inhibitors, H(2) blockers, 5-HT(3) receptor-antagonists, and a few other drugs that are used to address this domain of medical concerns. The metabolic pathways, interactions with the P-glycoprotein transporter, and capabilities of inhibiting or inducing metabolic enzymes are elucidated for each drug. Specific drug-drug interactions with each agent are also detailed, including both psychotropic and non-psychotropic agents. Also, the article explores how different genotypic variants for specific cytochrome P450 enzymes have an impact on the effectiveness and likelihood of drug-drug interactions relating to specific gastro-intestinal medications.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors are used extensively for the treatment of gastric acid-related disorders because they produce a greater degree and longer duration of gastric acid suppression and, thus, better healing rates, than histamine H(2) receptor antagonists. The need for long-term treatment of these disorders raises the potential for clinically significant drug interactions in patients receiving proton pump inhibitors and other medications. Therefore, it is important to understand the mechanisms for drug interactions in this setting. Proton pump inhibitors can modify the intragastric release of other drugs from their dosage forms by elevating pH (e.g. reducing the antifungal activity of ketoconazole). Proton pump inhibitors also influence drug absorption and metabolism by interacting with adenosine triphosphate-dependent P-glycoprotein (e.g. inhibiting digoxin efflux) or with the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme system (e.g. decreasing simvastatin metabolism), thereby affecting both intestinal first-pass metabolism and hepatic clearance. Although interactions based on the change of gastric pH are a group-specific effect and thus may occur with all proton pump inhibitors, individual proton pump inhibitors differ in their propensities to interact with other drugs and the extent to which their interaction profiles have been defined. The interaction profiles of omeprazole and pantoprazole have been studied most extensively. A number of studies have shown that omeprazole carries a considerable potential for drug interactions, since it has a high affinity for CYP2C19 and a somewhat lower affinity for CYP3A4. In contrast, pantoprazole appears to have lower potential for interactions with other medications. Although the interaction profiles of esomeprazole, lansoprazole and rabeprazole have been less extensively investigated, evidence suggests that lansoprazole and rabeprazole seem to have a weaker potential for interactions than omeprazole. Although only a few drug interactions involving proton pump inhibitors have been shown to be of clinical significance, the potential for drug interactions should be taken into account when choosing a therapy for gastric acid-related disorders, especially for elderly patients in whom polypharmacy is common, or in those receiving a concomitant medication with a narrow therapeutic index.

Abstract
The application of pharmacogenetics holds great promise for individualized therapy. However, it has little clinical reality at present, despite many claims. The main problem is that the evidence base supporting genetic testing before therapy is weak. The pharmacology of the drugs subject to inherited variability in metabolism is often complex. Few have simple or single pathways of elimination. Some have active metabolites or enantiomers with different activities and pathways of elimination. Drug dosing is likely to be influenced only if the aggregate molar activity of all active moieties at the site of action is predictably affected by genotype or phenotype. Variation in drug concentration must be significant enough to provide "signal" over and above normal variation, and there must be a genuine concentration-effect relationship. The therapeutic index of the drug will also influence test utility. After considering all of these factors, the benefits of prospective testing need to be weighed against the costs and against other endpoints of effect. It is not surprising that few drugs satisfy these requirements. Drugs (and enzymes) for which there is a reasonable evidence base supporting genotyping or phenotyping include suxamethonium/mivacurium (butyrylcholinesterase), and azathioprine/6-mercaptopurine (thiopurine methyltransferase). Drugs for which there is a potential case for prospective testing include warfarin (CYP2C9), perhexiline (CYP2D6), and perhaps the proton pump inhibitors (CYP2C19). No other drugs have an evidence base that is sufficient to justify prospective testing at present, although some warrant further evaluation. In this review we summarize the current evidence base for pharmacogenetics in relation to drug-metabolizing enzymes.

Abstract
AIMS Rabeprazole is known to be a substrate of CYP2C19. Our objective was to evaluate the possible effect of an inhibitor of CYP2C19, fluvoxamine, and compare the inhibitory effect of fluvoxamine on the metabolism of rabeprazole between CYP2C19 genotypes. METHODS A two-way randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study was performed. Twenty-one volunteers, of whom seven were homozygous extensive metabolizers (EMs), eight were heterozygous EMs and six were poor metabolizers (PMs) for CYP2C19, received two 6-day courses of either fluvoxamine 50 mg or placebo daily in a randomized fashion with a single oral dose of rabeprazole 20 mg on day 6 in all cases. Plasma concentrations of rabeprazole and its metabolite rabeprazole thioether were monitored up to 24 h after dosing. RESULTS During placebo administration, the mean AUCs(0,infinity) of rabeprazole in homozygous EMs, heterozygous EMs and PMs were 882 (95% CI, 602, 1162) ng ml-1h , 1214 (975, 1453) ng ml-1 h and 2762 (2482, 3042) ng ml-1 h (P<0.001), respectively. Fluvoxamine treatment increased AUC(0,infinity) of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether by 2.8-fold (P<0.001) and 5.1-fold (P<0.01) in homozygous EMs, and by 1.7-fold (P<0.01) and 2.6-fold (P<0.01) in heterozygous EMs, and significantly prolonged the elimination half-life of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether in homozygous EMs and in heterozygous EMs, whereas no difference in any pharmacokinetic parameters was found in PMs. There was a significant difference in fluvoxamine-mediated percentage increase in AUC(0,infinity) of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether between CYP2C19 genotypes. CONCLUSIONS The present study indicates that there are significant drug interactions between rabeprazole and fluvoxamine in EMs of CYP2C19. It is predominantly involved in rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether metabolism in EMs. Therefore, CYP2C19 is the key determinant of rabeprazole disposition in EMs.

Abstract
AIM Rabeprazole is metabolized to some extent by CYP2C19. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the pharmacokinetics of each rabeprazole enantiomer in three different CYP2C19 genotype groups. METHODS Twenty-four healthy subjects, of whom each each were homozygous extensive metabolizers (homEMs), heterozygous extensive metabolizers (hetEMs) and poor metabolizers (PMs) for CYP2C19, participated in our study. After a single oral dose of 20 mg of racemic rabeprazole, the plasma concentrations of the rabeprazole enantiomers were measured over the course of 24 h. RESULTS The area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUC) of (R)-rabeprazole in homEMs, hetEMs and PMs were 1.8-, 2.2- and 2.4-fold, respectively, greater than those of (S)-rabeprazole; the relative AUC ratios of (R)- and (S)-rabeprazole in homEMs, hetEMs and PMs were 1:1.1:2.1 and 1:0.9:1.5, respectively. The mean maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) of (R)-rabeprazole in homEMs, hetEMs and PMs were 1.7-, 1.9- and 1.8-fold higher, respectively, than those of the corresponding (S)-enantiomer (P<0.05). There was no difference between homEMs and PMs in the elimination half-life of (S)-rabeprazole, whereas the elimination half-life of (R)-rabeprazole was significantly longer in PMs than in homEMs [1.7 h (1.4, 2.0) (mean (95% confidence interval)]vs. 0.8 h (0.6, 1.0), respectively, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS (R)-Rabeprazole disposition was influenced to a greater degree by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms than was that of (S)-rabeprazole. The effect of CYP2C19 polymorphisms on the stereoselective disposition of rabeprazole was less than those of lansoprazole and omeprazole.

Abstract
AIM Rabeprazole has been known to inhibit H(+)/K(+)-ATPase more rapidly than omeprazole, the prototype proton pump inhibitor (PPI). The aim of this study was to demonstrate equivalence between low-dose rabeprazole 10 mg and omeprazole 20 mg for the healing rapidity of active peptic ulcer and for improvement of symptoms. Also, the effect of CYP2C19 genotypes on ulcer healing rapidity was investigated. METHODS A total of 112 patients with active peptic ulcer were randomized to receive either rabeprazole 10 mg q.d. or omeprazole 20 mg q.d. for 6 weeks. The remaining ratios (%) and complete healing of the ulcer were determined by endoscopy at 1 week and 6 weeks of treatment. The severity of ulcer pain was also investigated during treatment. CYP2C19 genotype was determined by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. RESULTS The remaining ratio of peptic ulcers after 1 week and the complete healing rate after 6 weeks in the rabeprazole versus omeprazole group were 45.5% versus 50.3% (P = 0.475) and 80.6% versus 87.0% (P = 0.423), respectively. CYP2C19 genotypes had no effect on the remaining ratio of peptic ulcers after 1 week and the healing rate of peptic ulcers after 6 weeks in both groups. The proportions of patients with symptom improvement or resolution were comparable between the two groups. CONCLUSION Low-dose rabeprazole 10 mg has a similar efficacy for the healing rapidity of active peptic ulcer disease and symptom improvement compared with standard-dose omeprazole 20 mg.

Abstract
AIM: To observe the pharmacokinetics and pharmaco-dynamics of rabeprazole and compare serum gastrin concentrations in different CYP2C19 genotype groups.
METHODS: The CYP2C19 genotype status of Chinese Han healthy volunteers was determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Twenty H pylori-negative healthy subjects voluntary participated in the study. They were divided into the following three groups: homozygous extensive metabolizers (homEM), heterozygous extensive metabolizers (hetEM) and poor metabolizers (PM). After they orally received rabeprazole 20 mg once daily in the morning of d 1 and d 8, blood samples were collected at various time-points until 24 h after administration and intragastric pH values were monitored for 24 h by Digitrapper pH. Serum gastrin concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Serum concentrations of rabeprazole were measured by high performance liquid chromatography.
RESULTS: The mean AUC values for rabeprazole after a single and repeated doses were significantly different between the homEM and PM groups, but not between the homEM and hetEM, or the hetEM and PM groups. No significant differences in intragastric pH medians were observed among the three different genotype groups after a single dose or repeated doses. The ratio of pH medians between d 1 and d 8 ranged from 84% to 108%. The mean gastrin AUC values were also different among the three genotype groups, with a relative ratio of 1.0, 1.2 and 1.5 after a single dose and 1.0, 1.5 and 1.6 after repeated doses in the homEM, hetEM and PM groups, respectively. The gastrin AUC values among the three different genotype groups showed no significant difference either after a single dose or repeated doses. The subject who had lower intragastric acidity showed higher serum gastrin levels and concentrations of rabeprazole.
CONCLUSION: In Chinese Han healthy people, the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole are dependent on the CYP2C19 genotype status, but acid-inhibitory efficacy of rabeprazole and the gastrin level are not influenced significantly.

Abstract
There are variations in the CYP2C19 genotypes, that are important for the metabolism of PPIs. Patients who are heterozygotes for the mutation, but especially homozygotes, have a much slower metabolism, which will result in more profound acid suppression. Studies have been published, that suggest that the success rate of anti-Helicobacter therapy is in part related to the CYP2C19 genotype of the patient. However, it is important to keep in mind that most studies that have evaluated this have been carried out in Asia, in particular in Japan, where the prevalence of poor metabolizers (PM) is much higher than, for example, in Caucasians. The systematic review published in this issue suggests that particularly for omeprazole in combination with amoxicillin or amoxicillin and clarithromycin the success rate is much lower when compared to other proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). However, there was marked heterogeneity when the results were pooled in formal meta-analysis. Study quality was suboptimal and other factors such as resistance to antibiotics may explain the observed differences in success rates. More clinical trial data are needed before we can accept the conclusions of this meta-analysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Rabeprazole as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is mainly reduced to rabeprazole thioether via a nonenzymatic pathway, with minor CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 involvement. The aim of this study was to compare possible effects of clarithromycin and verapamil as inhibitors of CYP3A4 on the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole among CYP2C19 genotypes. METHODS A three-way randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study was performed. Nineteen volunteers, of whom six were homozygous extensive metabolizers (EMs), eight were heterozygous EMs, and five were poor metabolizers (PMs) for CYP2C19, received three 6-day courses of either daily 800 mg clarithromycin, 240 mg verapamil, or placebo in a randomized fashion, with a single oral dose of 20 mg rabeprazole on day 6 in all cases. Plasma concentrations of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether were monitored up to 24 h after the dosing. RESULTS In the control phase, the AUC(0-infinity) values for rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether were 1,005+/-366 and 412+/-149 ng.h/ml in homozygous EMs, 1,108+/-340 and 491+/-245 ng.h/ml in heterozygous EMs, and 2,697+/-364 and 2,116+/-373 ng.h/ml in PMs, respectively. There were significant differences (p<0.001) in the AUC(0-infinity) of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether among three different CYP2C19 genotypes. In the clarithromycin and verapamil phases, no significant differences were found in the pharmacokinetic parameters of rabeprazole compared with those in the control phase irrespective of CYP2C19 genotypes, whereas the AUC(0-infinity) of rabeprazole thioether was significantly increased 2.8-fold and 2.3-fold in homozygous EMs (p<0.01), 2.0-fold and 2.0-fold in heterozygous EMs (p<0.05), and 1.6-fold and 1.9-fold in PMs (p<0.05), respectively. In each genotype group for CYP2C19, there were no statistical differences in the percent increase in those pharmacokinetic parameters between the clarithromycin and verapamil pretreatment phases. CONCLUSION The pharmacokinetic parameters of rabeprazole were not altered by clarithromycin or verapamil irrespective of the CYP2C19 genotypes. However, this result shows that both clarithromycin and verapamil significantly influence the disposition of rabeprazole by inhibiting the oxidation of the thioether, since the AUC(0-infinity) of rabeprazole thioether that has no effect on acid secretion increased. Therefore, the pharmacokinetic interactions between rabeprazole and CYP3A4 or P-glycoprotein inhibitors have limited clinical significance.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to identify a single time-point for plasma lansoprazole measurement that adequately reflects area under the plasma lansoprazole concentration-time curve (AUC) after administration of lansoprazole alone or together with coadministration with CYP mediators. A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled crossover study design in 3 phases was conducted at intervals of 2 weeks. Eighteen healthy Japanese volunteers, comprising 3 CYP2C19 genotype groups, took a single oral 60-mg dose of lansoprazole after three 6-day pretreatments, that is, clarithromycin 800 mg/d, fluvoxamine 50 mg/d, and placebo. Blood samplings (10 mL each) for determination of lansoprazole were taken up to 24 hours after the administration of lansoprazole. Correlation between plasma lansoprazole concentrations at various time points and AUC0-24 were analyzed. Although there were significant differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters of lansoprazole during clarithromycin and placebo among CYP2C19 genotypes, the differences were not found during fluvoxamine. The plasma concentrations 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after administration (C3, C4, C6, and C8, respectively) were highly correlated with AUC0-24 in coadministration with placebo, clarithromycin, and fluvoxamine (r>0.8, P<0.001). In particular, C6 showed a correlation coefficient of 0.940, 0.992, and 0.953 in coadministration with placebo, clarithromycin, and fluvoxamine, respectively, and was the most appropriate for estimating AUC0-24. The present study demonstrates that AUC of lansoprazole can be estimated by using a single time-point at C6. This method of plasma concentration monitoring at one time-point might be more suitable for AUC estimation than reference to CYP2C19 genotypes, particularly in coadministration of CYP mediators.

Abstract
There are a great number of polymorphic genes in the human genome. Many of them codify enzymes that metabolizes drugs and xenobiotic agents, including carcinogens. Among the better known of them, there are a number of isozymes of the microsomal oxidative system (CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 y CYP2D6). This article reviews the following issues: a) frequency of presentation of the "poor metabolizer" genotype and/or phenotype for substrates of CYP2C19; b) role of CYP2C19 polymorphism on the metabolism of some drugs (mephenytoine and other antiepileptic drugs, proton pump inhibitors, several antidepressants and anxyolitics, the antimalaria aggent proguanyl, and propranolol, among others, use this metabolic pathway), and c) possible role of CYP2C19 polymorphism in the risk for development of neoplasia and other diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, hip osteonecrosis, Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, essential tremor).

Abstract
The use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has become widespread in children and infants for the management of paediatric acid-related disease. Pharmacokinetic profiles of only omeprazole and lansoprazole have been well characterised in children over 2 years of age with acid-related diseases. Few data have been recently published regarding the pharmacokinetics of pantoprazole in children, and none are available for rabeprazole or esomeprazole. The metabolism of PPI enantiomers has never been studied in the paediatric population. A one-compartment model best describes the pharmacokinetic behaviour of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole in children, with important interindividual variability for each pharmacokinetic parameter. Like adults, PPIs are rapidly absorbed in children following oral administration; the mean time to reach maximum plasma concentration varies from 1 to 3 hours. Since these agents are acid labile, their oral formulations consist of capsules containing enteric-coated granules. No liquid formulation is available for any of the PPIs. Thus, for those patients unable to swallow capsules, extemporaneous liquid preparations for omeprazole and lansoprazole have been reported; however, neither the absolute nor the relative bioavailabilities of these oral formulations have been studied in children. Intravenous formulations are available for omeprazole (in Europe), lansoprazole and pantoprazole. PPIs are rapidly metabolised in children, with short elimination half-lives of around 1 hour, similar to that reported for adults. All PPIs are extensively metabolised by the liver, primarily by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP2C19 and CYP3A4, to inactive metabolites, with little unchanged drug excreted in the urine. Similar to that seen in adults, the absolute bioavailability of omeprazole increases with repeated dosing in children; this phenomenon is thought to be due to a combination of decreased first-pass elimination and reduced systemic clearance. The apparent clearance (CL/F) of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole appears to be faster for children than for adults. A higher metabolic capacity in children as well as differences in the extent of PPI bioavailability are most likely responsible for this finding. This may partly account for the need in children for variable and sometimes considerably greater doses of PPIs, on a per kilogram basis, than for adults to achieve similar plasma concentrations. Furthermore, no studies have been able to demonstrate a statistically significant correlation between age and pharmacokinetic parameters among children. Despite the small number of very young infants studied, there is some evidence for reduced PPI metabolism in newborns. The limited paediatric data regarding the impact of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on PPI metabolism are similar to those reported for adults, with poor metabolisers having 6- to 10-fold higher area under the concentration-time curve values compared with extensive metabolisers. Finally, because a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship exists for PPIs, the significant interindividual variability in their disposition may partly explain the wide range of therapeutic doses used in children. Further studies are needed to better define the pharmacokinetics of PPIs in children <2 years of age.

Abstract
Gastric acid is pathogenic in many gastrointestinal disorders, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease and peptic ulcer disease. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the antisecretory drugs of choice for serious acid-related conditions. Ample recent data exist to explicate virtually every aspect of the clinical management of acid-peptic disorders with PPIs. Although all PPIs are effective, there are some differences in their clinical performance, particularly in terms of the degree and speed of gastric acid suppression. Rapid onset of acid suppression may be particularly relevant to newer approaches, such as 'on-demand' or intermittent therapy for non-erosive reflux disease and shorter regimens for Helicobacter pylori eradication. New data, in addition, highlight differences in PPI metabolism that may both affect efficacy and predispose patients to drug-drug interactions. PPI selection should involve the awareness of these issues.

Abstract
AIM To investigate whether the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole are dependent on CYP2C19 genotype status in healthy Chinese Han subjects. METHODS The CYP2C19 genotype status of healthy Chinese Han volunteers was determined using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Twenty healthy subjects volunteered to participate in the study. There were seven homozygous extensive metabolizers (homEM), six heterozygous extensive metabolizers (hetEM), and seven poor metabolizers (PM). All subjects were Helicobactor pylori-negative, which was determined by sero-logy and 13C-urea breath tests. Rabeprazole (20 mg) was taken orally once daily in the morning for 8 days, and intragastric pH values were monitored for 24 h by Digitrapper pH after day 1 (single dose) and day 8 (repeated dose). Meanwhile, blood samples were collected at various time-points for 24 h after administration. The serum concentrations of rabeprazole were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS The mean area under the curve (AUC) values for rabeprazole differed among the three different genotype groups, with a relative ratio of 1.0, 1.3, and 1.8 after a single dose and 1.0, 1.1, and 1.7 after repeated doses in the homEM, hetEM, and PM groups, respectively. Mean AUC values for rabeprazole after a single dose and after repeated doses were significantly different between the homEM and PM groups, but not between the homEM and hetEM or hetEM and PM groups. No significant differences in intragastric pH median, pH>4 total time, and pH>4 time percentage of 24 h, were observed among the three different genotype groups after a single dose or after repeated doses of rabeprazole. CONCLUSION In healthy Chinese Han subjects, the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole are dependent on a certain degree on CYP2C19 genotype status; however, the acid-inhibitory efficacy of rabeprazole is not influenced significantly by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism.

Abstract
Interethnic variability in pharmacokinetics can cause unexpected outcomes such as therapeutic failure, adverse effects, and toxicity in subjects of different ethnic origin undergoing medical treatment. It is important to realize that both genetic and environmental factors can lead to these differences among ethnic groups. The International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) published a guidance to facilitate the registration of drugs among ICH regions (European Union, Japan, the United States) by recommending a framework for evaluating the impact of ethnic factors on a drug's effect, as well as its efficacy and safety at a particular dosage and dosage regimen. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetic differences between East Asians and Caucasians. Differences in metabolism between East Asians and Caucasians are common, especially in the activity of several phase I enzymes such as CYP2D6 and the CYP2C subfamily. Before drug therapy, identification of either the genotype and/or the phenotype for these enzymes may be of therapeutic value, particularly for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index. Furthermore, these differences are relevant for international drug approval when regulatory agencies must decide if they accept results from clinical trials performed in other parts of the world.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors are now considered the mainstay of treatment for acid-related disease. Although all proton pump inhibitors are highly effective, the antisecretory effects of different drugs in this class are not completely consistent across patients. One reason for this is the acid-suppressing effect of Helicobacter pylori infection, which may augment the actions of proton pump inhibitors. A second important reason for interpatient variability of the effects of proton pump inhibitors on acid secretion involves genetically determined differences in the metabolism of these drugs. This article focuses on the impact of genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C19 on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of proton pump inhibitors, particularly rabeprazole. Results reviewed indicate that the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole differ significantly from those of other proton pump inhibitors. Most importantly, the clearance of rabeprazole is largely nonenzymatic and less dependent on CYP2C19 than other drugs in its class. This results in greater consistency of pharmacokinetics for rabeprazole across a wide range of patients with acid-related disease, particularly those with different CYP2C19 genotypes. The pharmacodynamic profile for rabeprazole is also characterized by more rapid suppression of gastric acid secretion than with other proton pump inhibitors, which is also independent of CYP2C19 genotype. The favourable pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profile for rabeprazole has been shown to result in high eradication rates for H. pylori in both normal and poor metabolizers. Pharmacodynamic results have also suggested that rabeprazole may be better suited than omeprazole as on-demand therapy for symptomatic gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. Finally, the use of rabeprazole is not complicated by clinically significant drug-drug interactions of the type that have been reported for omeprazole.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, rabeprazole, esomeprazole, and pantoprazole, are metabolized by cytochrome P450 isoenzyme 2C19 (CYP2C19) in the liver. There are genetic differences that affect the activity of this enzyme. The genotypes of CYP2C19 are classified into three groups: homozygous extensive metabolizer (homEM), heterozygous extensive metabolizer (hetEM), and poor metabolizer (PM). The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PPIs differ among the different CYP2C19 genotype groups. Plasma PPI and intragastric pH levels during PPI treatment are the lowest in the homEM group and the highest in the PM group. These CYP2C19 genotype-dependent differences in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PPIs are reflected in the cure rates for gastroesophageal reflux disease and Helicobacter pylori infection with PPI-based therapies. The CYP2C19 genotyping test is a useful tool for deciding on the optimal treatment regimen using a PPI, including a dual (PPI plus antibiotic) or a triple (PPI plus two antibiotics) therapy.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole (esomeprazole), lansoprazole, pantoprazole and rabeprazole are eliminated by the hepatic route and the polymorphic CYP2C19 is mainly involved in their metabolism. In different populations three phenotypes have been identified: extensive metabolizers, poor metabolizers and individuals carrying one wild type and one mutant allele (het extensive metabolizers). Systemic exposure to the proton pump inhibitors as expressed by the AUC (area under the plasma level time profiles) is 5-12-times higher in poor metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers. As the pharmacodynamic response (elevation of intragastric pH) to the proton pump inhibitors is related directly to their AUC, a much higher pH can be monitored over 24 hr in poor metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers. Furthermore, clinical efficacy of all proton pump inhibitors depend on maintaining intragastric pH above certain threshold levels and significantly higher eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori have been observed in patients of the poor metabolizers and het extensive metabolizers phenotype if compared to extensive metabolizers. Likewise, limited data suggest that proton pump inhibitors-induced healing rates in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease are apparently higher in poor metabolizers/het extensive metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers of CYP2C19. Therefore initial genotyping for this enzyme and higher dosage in extensive metabolizers is likely to improve the clinical efficacy of proton pump inhibitors.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) [omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole and esomeprazole] are widely utilised for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, as well as other acid-related disorders. All PPIs suppress gastric acid secretion by blocking the gastric acid pump, H(+)/K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), but the physicochemical properties of these drugs result in variations in the degree of acid suppression, as well as the speed of onset of acid inhibition. Such differences may impact on the clinical performance of PPIs, and this manuscript discusses data that may help clinicians choose between the available PPIs for specific clinical situations and indications. The characteristics of PPIs that have been developed subsequent to omeprazole offer several advantages over this prototype PPI, particularly with respect to the onset of acid suppression and reduced potential for inter-individual pharmacokinetic variation and drug interactions. Newer agents inhibit H(+)/K(+)-ATPase more rapidly than omeprazole and emerging clinical data support potential clinical benefits resulting from this pharmacological property. Although key pharmacokinetic parameters (time to maximum plasma concentration and elimination half-life) do not differ significantly among PPIs, differences in the hepatic metabolism of these drugs can produce inter-patient variability in acid suppression, in the potential for pharmacokinetic drug interactions and, quite possibly, in clinical efficacy. All PPIs undergo significant hepatic metabolism. Because there is no direct toxicity from PPIs, there is minimal risk from the administration of any of them - even to patients with significant renal or hepatic impairment. However, there are significant genetic polymorphisms for one of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes involved in PPI metabolism (CYP2C19), and this polymorphism has been shown to substantially increase plasma levels of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole, but not those of rabeprazole. Hepatic metabolism is also a key determinant of the potential for a given drug to be involved in clinically significant pharmacokinetic drug interactions. Omeprazole has the highest risk for such interactions among PPIs, and rabeprazole and pantoprazole appear to have the lowest risk.Thus, whereas all PPIs have been shown to be generally effective and safely used for the treatment of acid-mediated disorders, there are chemical, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic differences among these drugs that may make certain ones more, or less, suitable for treating different patient subgroups. Of course, the absolute magnitude of risk from any PPI in terms of drug-drug interactions is probably low - excepting interactions occurring as class effects related to acid suppression (e.g. increased digoxin absorption or inability to absorb ketoconazole).

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To determine the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic rationale for the optimum regimen of rabeprazole in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients who are cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 poor metabolizers or extensive metabolizers. DESIGN Prospective, multiple-dose pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study. SETTING University-affiliated medical center in Taiwan. SUBJECTS Twelve healthy volunteers (aged 20-30 yrs) who were identified as CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (six subjects) or extensive metabolizers (six). INTERVENTION Each subject received rabeprazole 20 mg twice/day for 3 consecutive days and once/day on the fourth day. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were compared between CYP2C19 poor and extensive metabolizers on day 1 and day 4 of dosing. The mean +/- SD values of area under the concentration-time curve of rabeprazole and rabeprazole thioether were significantly higher in poor metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers on day 1 (5357 +/- 883 vs 1131 +/- 512 ng x hr/ml and 1703 +/- 432 vs 561 +/- 358 ng x hr/ml, respectively; p<0.001) and on day 4 (5601 +/- 669 vs 1619 +/- 778 ng x hr/ml and 1914 +/- 378 vs 511 +/- 360 ng x hr/ml, respectively; p<0.001). However, no significant difference was noted between day 1 and day 4 of dosing within the same genotype groups. Only CYP2C19 poor metabolizers had significantly higher plasma gastrin levels on day 4 compared with those levels on day 1 (p<0.05). The pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationship of rabeprazole appears to be time dependent. CONCLUSION The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data suggest that CYP2C19 poor metabolizers might be subject to advantageous conditions, especially after day 4, for treating H. pylori infection with rabeprazole.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) belong to a group of chemically related compounds whose primary function is the inhibition of acid production in the final common metabolic pathway of gastric parietal cells. PPIs are highly selective and effective in their action and have few short- or long-term adverse effects. These pharmacologic features have made the development of PPIs the most significant advancement in the management of acid peptic related disorders in the last two decades. There are numerous published adult studies that describe the pharmacology, efficacy and safety of these anti-secretory agents; however, in the pediatric population, there are very few comparable studies, particularly multicenter studies with significant patient enrollment. In preparing this article, our aim was to perform a comprehensive review of the literature on the clinical pharmacology and use of PPIs in the pediatric population, and to briefly review some recent articles. Relevant literature was identified by performing MEDLINE/Pubmed searches from January 1990 to December 2001. Combinations of the following search terms were use to analyze these databases: proton pump inhibitor, children, pediatrics, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), esophagitis, intestinal metaplasia, Helicobacter pylori, omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole, esomeprazole, and safety. Abstracts from the 14th annual conference of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) 2001, and the Disease and Digestive Week 2001, were also included in the review. All pediatric studies reviewed were limited to either omeprazole or lansoprazole. The dosage range used for the management of GERD and related disorders with lansoprazole was 0.73-1.66 mg/kg/day (maximum 30 mg/day). The dosage range for GERD management using omeprazole was 0.3-3.5 mg/kg (maximum 80 mg/day). The dosage range for omeprazole used for H. pylori was 0.5-1.5 mg/kg/day, with a maximum dosage of 40 mg/day, and lansoprazole-containing regimens for H. pylori eradication used dosages ranging from 0.6-1.2 mg/kg/day, with a maximum dosage of 30 mg/day. Few severe adverse events were reported with the use of either drug. Eradication rates for H. pylori were 56-87% for lansoprazole-based triple therapy, and 75-94% for omeprazole-based eradication regimens. To date, there are no published controlled trials of sufficient power comparing the efficacy of the five commercially available PPIs in children, for a variety of acid peptic diseases. Studies suggest that PPIs are highly effective for the management of GERD and related disorders, and are a critically needed component of triple therapy to eradicate H. pylori. PPIs have a very good tolerability profile in adults and children, but long-term tolerability studies are needed, particularly in the pediatric population. Multicenter studies are critically needed to evaluate the second-generation PPIs, to compare PPI efficacy to each other, and to assess the importance of developmental and genetic pharmacology of these drugs in children with acid-peptic disease.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 mediates the major metabolic transformations of the proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) omeprazole, pantoprazole, lansoprazole, esomeprazole, and rabeprazole. Genetic polymorphism of CYP2C19 can lead to significant phenotypic variation in the activity of this isoenzyme and thus in the metabolism of PPIs. We systematically reviewed the pharmacogenetic studies of PPIs with respect to the effects of CYP2C19 polymorphism on the clinical outcomes of PPI therapy. We searched MEDLINE (January 1966-August 2002) and EMBASE (January 1988-August 2002) for English-language articles on the pharmacogenetics of PPIs; the search was supplemented by a bibliographic review of all relevant articles. Seventeen pertinent citations were identified, and the quality (level) of evidence for each was categorized according to the rating scale of the United States Preventive Services Task Force. We found that the relationship between CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism and clinical outcomes after PPI therapy has not yet been clearly delineated. Virtually all pharmacogenetic studies of PPIs have been performed in Japanese men; thus, the clinical relevance of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism in non-Asian patients and women is unknown. Differences among dual- and triple-therapy drug regimens make it difficult to compare H. pylori eradication studies and assess their applicability to current practice patterns. Drug adherence, a pivotal factor in the success of eradication therapy, was addressed in only four trials. Future directions for research include performing more studies with larger sample sizes, particularly in non-Asian populations and women; measuring plasma PPI concentrations to directly correlate H. pylori infection and ulcer cure rates with plasma drug availability; expanding the study population to patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease; and exploring the influence of CYP3A4 in the success or failure of PPI therapy. Although CYP2C19 genotyping is currently only a research instrument, it may be a valuable clinical tool in select patients to ensure optimal PPI therapy.

Abstract
Esomeprazole (Nexium, AstraZeneca) is the (S)-isomer of omeprazole and the first proton pump inhibitor to be developed as an optical isomer. Esomeprazole has an improved pharmacokinetic profile, resulting in increased systemic exposure and less interindividual variability compared with omeprazole, and more effective suppression of gastric acid production compared with other proton pump inhibitors. In several large, double-blind, randomised trials, significantly higher rates of endoscopically-confirmed healing of erosive oesophagitis and resolution of heartburn have been achieved in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease receiving 8 weeks of esomeprazole 40 mg o.d. compared with those receiving omeprazole 20 mg o.d. or lansoprazole 30 mg o.d. In the maintenance of healed erosive oesophagitis, esomeprazole 10, 20 or 40 mg o.d. was significantly more effective than placebo in two 6-month, randomised, double-blind trials. Additionally, esomeprazole 20 mg o.d. was more effective than lansoprazole 15 mg in the maintenance of healed erosive oesophagitis in another 6-month, randomised, double-blind trial. Healing of oesophagitis was also effectively maintained by esomeprazole 40 mg o.d. in a 12-month non-comparative trial. Esomeprazole 20 or 40 mg o.d. effectively relieved heartburn in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease without oesophagitis in two 4-week, placebo-controlled trials. Clinical trials have shown that triple therapy with esomeprazole 40 mg o.d. in combination with amoxicillin and clarithromycin produced Helicobacter pylori eradication rates similar to those obtained using triple therapy involving twice-daily dosing with other proton pump inhibitors. Esomeprazole is well-tolerated, with a spectrum and incidence of adverse events similar to those associated with omeprazole.

Abstract
The enzyme activities of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 show a genetic polymorphism, and the frequency of poor metabolizers (PMs) on these enzymes depends on races. We have analyzed frequencies of mutant alleles and PMs based on the published data in previous study (Shimizu, T. et al.: Bioinformatics research on inter-racial difference in drug metabolism, I. Analysis on frequencies of mutant alleles and poor metabolizers on CYP2D6 and CYP2C19.). The study shows that there were racial differences in the frequencies of each mutant allele and PMs. In the present study, the correlation between genotypes and drug-metabolizing enzyme activities was investigated. The result showed that enzyme activities varied according to the genotypes of subjects even in the same race. On the other hand, if subjects had the same genotypes, almost no racial differences were observed in drug-metabolizing enzyme activities. From these results, it was supposed that the racial differences in activities of these enzymes could be explained by the differences in distribution of genotypes. It would be possible to explain the racial differences in drug-metabolizing enzyme activities based on the differences on individual pharmacogenetic background information, not merely by comparison of frameworks such as races and nations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Helicobacter pylori treatment failure is thought to be due mainly to polymorphic cytochrome P450 2C19 (CPY2C19) genetic polymorphism, associated with proton pump inhibitor metabolism, and antimicrobial susceptibility. This report has ascertained which was more important, CPY2C19 polymorphism or antimicrobial susceptibility, when using 1-week lansoprazole-based or rabeprazole-based triple therapy in Japan. DESIGN An open, randomized, parallel group study. SETTING One hundred and forty-five subjects with H. pylori-positive gastritis or peptic ulcers were randomly assigned to receive 30 mg lansoprazole twice daily (LAC group), 10 mg rabeprazole twice daily (RAC20 group), or 20 mg rabeprazole twice daily (RAC40 group), with 1000 mg amoxicillin twice daily and 400 mg clarithromycin twice daily for 1 week. Antimicrobial resistance testing was performed by E-test. More than 4 weeks after completion of treatment, H. pylori status was assessed by 13C-urea breath test, histology, and culture. RESULTS Cure rates expressed as intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses, respectively, were 79.6 and 83.0% with LAC, 85.4 and 89.1% with RAC20, and 83.3 and 88.9% with RAC40. In the case of clarithromycin-sensitive strains, the cure rates were more than 97%, regardless of CPY2C19 polymorphism. However, treatment succeeded in only one out of 16 clarithromycin-resistant strains. CONCLUSIONS The key to successful eradication of H. pylori, using lansoprazole or rabeprazole with clarithromycin and amoxicillin, is clarithromycin susceptibility, not CPY2C19 polymorphism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 influences the efficacy of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and amoxicillin. However, in triple therapy (PPI plus amoxicillin and clarithromycin), little is known about the impact of CYP2C19 polymorphism, or the use of rabeprazole, which is not well metabolized by CYP2C19. The efficacy of three PPI (omeprazole, lansoprazole, and rabeprazole) in a 1-week triple regimen were compared in relation to CYP2C19 polymorphism. METHOD One hundred and eighty-three patients were randomized to receive one of the following regimens: amoxicillin 500 mg t.i.d., clarithromycin 200 mg t.i.d., and PPI (omeprazole 20 mg, lansoprazole 30 mg, or rabeprazole 10 mg) b.i.d. CYP2C19 polymorphism was analyzed by PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS Intention-to-treat-based overall cure rates for omeprazole, lansoprazole or rabeprazole regimens were 83.1% (95% confidence interval (CI): 69-89%), 86.7% (CI: 75-93%), and 76.6% (CI: 64-85%), respectively, without significant difference. The cure rate of the rabeprazole regimen (but not the lansoprazole or omeprazole regimens) tended to be correlated with CYP2C19 genotypes (P = 0.076). In patients with a homozygous extensive metabolizer genotype, the per protocol-based cure rate with rabeprazole (62.5%) was significantly lower than that with lansoprazole (90.0%; P = 0.038). CONCLUSION The overall cure rate of 1-week triple therapy for H. pylori eradication was not significantly different between regimens with omeprazole, lansoprazole or rabeprazole, but the impact of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on the cure rate appeared to differ between these PPI.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Rabeprazole is an inhibitor of the gastric proton pump. It causes dose-dependent inhibition of acid secretion. In 8-week studies, among patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), rabeprazole 20 mg/day or 10mg twice daily was as effective as omeprazole and superior to ranitidine in the healing of GORD. Symptom relief with rabeprazole was superior to that provided by placebo and ranitidine and similar to omeprazole. In long-term trials rabeprazole 10 mg/day was similar to omeprazole 20 mg/day in a 2-year study and superior to placebo in 1-year studies, in both the maintenance of healing and prevention of symptoms in patients with healed GORD. In nonerosive GORD, 4-week studies have shown rabeprazole to be more effective than placebo in relieving heartburn and various other gastrointestinal symptoms. Data among patients with Barrett's oesophagus suggest rabeprazole 20 mg/day may be more effective than placebo in maintaining healing of associated oesophagitis after 1 year of treatment. One-week triple Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy with rabeprazole plus clarithromycin and amoxicillin achieved eradication rates of > or =85%. Rabeprazole is as effective as omeprazole and lansoprazole when included as part of a triple-therapy regimen for the eradication of H. pylori. Eradication rates of >90% were achieved when rabeprazole 20 to 40 mg/day was included as part of a quadruple eradication regimen. As monotherapy for peptic ulcer healing and symptom relief, 4- to 8-week studies have shown rabeprazole 10 to 40 mg/day to be superior to placebo and ranitidine and have similar efficacy to omeprazole. Preliminary 1-year data among 16 patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome suggest rabeprazole 60 to 120 mg/day can resolve and prevent the recurrence of symptoms and endoscopic lesions associated with this condition. In clinical trials of up to 2 years' duration the tolerability of rabeprazole is similar to that of placebo, ranitidine and omeprazole. Common adverse events assigned to rabeprazole have been diarrhoea, headache, rhinitis, nausea, pharyngitis and abdominal pain. Histological changes and increases in serum gastrin levels were unremarkable and typical of proton pump inhibitors. No dosage adjustment is necessary in renal and mild to moderate hepatic impairment. CONCLUSION Rabeprazole is a well tolerated proton pump inhibitor. It has proven efficacy in healing, symptom relief and prevention of relapse of peptic ulcers and GORD and can form part of effective H. pylori eradication regimens. It is an important alternative to H(2) antagonists and an additional treatment option to other proton pump inhibitors in the management of acid-related disorders.
