Pharmacogenetic and clinical predictors of voriconazole concentration in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients receiving CYP2C19-guided dosing. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2023; 23:201-209. [PMID: 37925536 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-023-00320-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
CYP2C19-guided voriconazole dosing reduces pharmacokinetic variability, but many patients remain subtherapeutic. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of candidate genes and a novel CYP2C haplotype on voriconazole trough concentrations in patients receiving CYP2C19-guided dosing. This is a retrospective candidate gene study in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) patients receiving CYP2C19-guided voriconazole dosing. Patients were genotyped for ABCB1, ABCG2, CYP2C9, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and the CYP2C haplotype. Of 185 patients, 36% were subtherapeutic (of which 79% were normal or intermediate metabolizers). In all patients, CYP2C19 (p < 0.001), age (p = 0.018), and letermovir use (p = 0.001) were associated with voriconazole concentrations. In the subset receiving 200 mg daily (non-RM/UMs), CYP2C19 (p = 0.004) and ABCG2 (p = 0.015) were associated with voriconazole concentrations; CYP2C19 (p = 0.028) and letermovir use (p = 0.001) were associated with subtherapeutic status. CYP2C19 phenotype and letermovir use were significantly associated with subtherapeutic voriconazole concentrations and may be used to improve voriconazole precision dosing, while further research is needed to clarify the role of ABCG2 in voriconazole dosing.

The impact of gene polymorphism and hepatic insufficiency on voriconazole dose adjustment in invasive fungal infection individuals. Front Genet 2023; 14:1242711. [PMID: 37693307 PMCID: PMC10484623 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1242711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Voriconazole (VRZ) is a broad-spectrum antifungal medication widely used to treat invasive fungal infections (IFI). The administration dosage and blood concentration of VRZ are influenced by various factors, posing challenges for standardization and individualization of dose adjustments. On the one hand, VRZ is primarily metabolized by the liver, predominantly mediated by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 enzyme. The genetic polymorphism of CYP2C19 significantly impacts the blood concentration of VRZ, particularly the trough concentration (Ctrough), thereby influencing the drug's efficacy and potentially causing adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Recent research has demonstrated that pharmacogenomics-based VRZ dose adjustments offer more accurate and individualized treatment strategies for individuals with hepatic insufficiency, with the possibility to enhance therapeutic outcomes and reduce ADRs. On the other hand, the security, pharmacokinetics, and dosing of VRZ in individuals with hepatic insufficiency remain unclear, making it challenging to attain optimal Ctrough in individuals with both hepatic insufficiency and IFI, resulting in suboptimal drug efficacy and severe ADRs. Therefore, when using VRZ to treat IFI, drug dosage adjustment based on individuals' genotypes and hepatic function is necessary. This review summarizes the research progress on the impact of genetic polymorphisms and hepatic insufficiency on VRZ dosage in IFI individuals, compares current international guidelines, elucidates the current application status of VRZ in individuals with hepatic insufficiency, and discusses the influence of CYP2C19, CYP3A4, CYP2C9, and ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms on VRZ dose adjustments and Ctrough at the pharmacogenomic level. Additionally, a comprehensive summary and analysis of existing studies' recommendations on VRZ dose adjustments based on CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms and hepatic insufficiency are provided, offering a more comprehensive reference for dose selection and adjustments of VRZ in this patient population.

Abstract
Precision medicine has revolutionized clinical care for patients with cancer through the development of targeted therapy, identification of inherited cancer predisposition syndromes and the use of pharmacogenetics to optimize pharmacotherapy for anticancer drugs and supportive care medications. While germline (patient) and somatic (tumor) genomic testing have evolved separately, recent interest in paired germline/somatic testing has led to an increase in integrated genomic testing workflows. However, paired germline/somatic testing has generally lacked the incorporation of germline pharmacogenomics. Integrating pharmacogenomics into paired germline/somatic genomic testing would be an efficient method for increasing access to pharmacogenomic testing. In this perspective, the authors argue for the benefits of implementing a comprehensive approach integrating somatic and germline testing that is inclusive of pharmacogenomics in clinical practice.

Abstract
Patients with haematological malignancies (HM) are at high risk of developing invasive fungal disease (IFD) with high morbidity and attributable mortality. We reviewed data published until September 2021 to update the 2017 antifungal prophylaxis recommendations of the German Society of Haematology and Medical Oncology (DGHO). The strong recommendation to administer antifungal prophylaxis in patients with HM with long-lasting neutropenia, i.e. <500 cells/μL for >7 days remains unchanged. Posaconazole remains the drug of choice for mould-active prophylaxis in these patients. Novel treatment options in HM, such as CAR-T-cell treatment or novel targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) were considered, however, data are insufficient to give general recommendations for routine antifungal prophylaxis in these patients. Major changes regarding specific recommendations compared to the 2017 edition are the now moderate instead of mild support for the recommendations of isavuconazole and voriconazole. Furthermore, published evidence on micafungin allows recommending it at moderate strength for its use in HM. For the first time we included recommendations for non-pharmaceutical measures regarding IFD, comprising the use of high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, smoking, measures during construction work and neutropenic diets. We reviewed the impact of antifungal prophylaxis with triazoles on drug-drug interactions with novel targeted therapies that are metabolized via cytochrome p450 where triazoles inhibit CYP3A4/5. The working group recommends reducing the dose of venetoclax when used concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 inhibiting antifungals. Furthermore, we reviewed data on the prophylactic use of novel antifungal agents. Currently there is no evidence to support their use in a prophylactic setting in clinical practice.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation mortality has declined over the years, though prevention and management of treatment-related toxicities and post-transplant complications remains challenging. Applications of pharmacogenomic testing can potentially mitigate adverse drug outcomes due to interindividual variability in drug metabolism and response. This review summarizes clinical pharmacogenomic applications relevant to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, including antifungals, immunosuppressants, and supportive care management, as well as emerging pharmacogenomic evidence with conditioning regimens.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 polymorphisms on the clinical efficacy and safety of voriconazole. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, ClinicalTrials.gov, and three Chinese databases from their inception to 18 March 2021 using a predefined search algorithm to identify relevant studies. Studies that reported voriconazole-treated patients and information on CYP2C19 polymorphisms were included. The efficacy outcome was success rate. The safety outcomes included overall adverse events, hepatotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. RESULTS A total of 20 studies were included. Intermediate metabolizers (IMs) and poor metabolizers (PMs) were associated with increased success rates compared with normal metabolizers (NMs) [risk ratio (RR), 1.18; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03-1.34; I2 = 0%; P = 0.02; RR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.06-1.54; I2 = 0%; P = 0.01]. PMs were at increased risk of overall adverse events in comparison with NMs and IMs (RR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.35-3.53; I2 = 0%; P = 0.001; RR, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.23-2.64; I2 = 0%; P = 0.003). PMs demonstrated a trend towards an increased incidence of hepatotoxicity when compared with NMs (RR, 1.60; 95% CI, 0.94-2.74; I2 = 27%; P = 0.08), although there was no statistically significant difference. In addition, there was no significant association between CYP2C19 polymorphisms and neurotoxicity. CONCLUSION IMs and PMs were at a significant higher success rate in comparison with NMs. PMs were significantly associated with an increased incidence of all adverse events compared with NMs and IMs. Researches are expected to further confirm these findings. Additionally, the relationship between hepatotoxicity and CYP2C19 polymorphisms deserves clinical attention.

Abstract
Genetic variability in CYP2C19 may be associated with both lack of efficacy and toxicity of drugs due to its different metabolic status based on the presence of particular alleles. This literature review summarizes current knowledge relative to the association or treatment adaptation based on CYP2C19 genetics in a pediatric population receiving drugs metabolized by CYP2C19, such as voriconazole, antidepressants, clopidogrel and proton pump inhibitors. Additionally, we also presented one of the approaches that we developed for detection of variant alleles in the CYP2C19 gene. A total of 25 articles on PubMed were retained for the study. All studies included pediatric patients (age up to 21 years) having benefited from an assessment of CYP2C19. CYP2C19 poor and intermediate metabolizers exhibit a higher trough plasma concentration of voriconazole, and PPIs compared to the rapid and ultra-rapid metabolizers. The pharmacogenetic data relative to CYP2C19 and clopidogrel in the pediatric population are not yet available. CYP2C19 poor metabolizers have a higher trough plasma concentration of antidepressants compared to the rapid and the ultra-rapid metabolizers. Modification of allele-specific PCR through the introduction of artificial mismatch is presented. CYP2C19 genotyping remains a powerful tool needed to optimize the treatment of children receiving voriconazole, PPIs, and anti-depressants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Voriconazole (VCZ) was one of the first mold-active triazoles available; however, its current use among high-risk hematology populations is unknown as the uptake of posaconazole (PCZ) and isavuconazole (ISZ) increases. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the usage and therapeutic level attainment of VCZ in hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy patients at our cancer center. STUDY DESIGN Electronic medical records for all adult HCT or CAR-T patients with an order for VCZ, PCZ or ISV between January 1, 2018, and June 30, 2020 were extracted. Clinical characteristics, VCZ indication, trough VCZ levels, and frequency of VCZ initiation from 6 months pre- to 6 months post HCT/CAR-T infusion in consecutive HCT/CAR-T recipients within the study period (infusion between July 1, 2018, and January 1, 2020) were assessed. The association between relevant clinical characteristics and the attainment of sub- or supratherapeutic levels was also evaluated. RESULTS Of 468 patients prescribed mold-active triazoles, 256 (54.7%) were prescribed VCZ, 324 (69.2%) PCZ, and 60 (12.8%) ISZ; 152/468 (32.5%) treatment regimens were sequentially modified to alternate mold-active triazoles. Among consecutive HCT and CAR-T recipients at our center, evaluated 6 months pre- or post- HCT/ CAR-T, VCZ was commonly initiated pre- or post-allogeneic HCT (102/381, 26.8%), with most use in the first 30 days post stem cell infusion (40/381, 10.5%); VCZ use was less common in autologous HCT (13/276, 4.7%) and CAR-T (10/153, 6.5%). Of 223 VCZ orders that met inclusion for analysis, indications included empiric treatment in 108/223 (48.4%), directed therapy in 25/223 (11.2%), primary prophylaxis in 69/223 (30.9%) and secondary prophylaxis in 21/223 (9.4%). Of 223 eligible VCZ patients, 144 (64.6%) had at least one VCZ level measured during the study period; 75/144 (52.1%) had a therapeutic VCZ level (1.0-5.5mg/L) at the first measurement (median 2.8mg/L [range 0.1 - 13.5]) at a median of 6 days of therapy, with 26.4% subtherapeutic and 21.5% supratherapeutic; 46/88 (52.3%) were therapeutic at the second measurement (2.1mg/L [0.1 - 9.9]) at a median of 17 days of therapy; and 33/48 (68.8%) at the third (2.3mg/L [0.1 - 7.7]) at a median of 29 days. In multivariable analysis of factors associated with sub- or supratherapeutic levels (body mass index ≥30, concurrent omeprazole use, concurrent letermovir use, indication for VCZ, history/timeframe of HCT), the only significant association was lower odds of a supratherapeutic VCZ level among those undergoing HCT within the previous 30 days compared to those without a history of HCT. CONCLUSIONS VCZ continues to remain an important option in the treatment and prevention of invasive fungal infections in an era when alternative oral mold-active triazoles are available. In spite of long-standing experience with VCZ prescribing, therapeutic level attainment remains a challenge.

Abstract
PURPOSE The increasing burden of invasive fungal infections results in growing challenges to antifungal (AF) therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). This review aims to provide an overview of recent advances in AF TDM. METHODS We conducted a PubMed search for articles during 2016-2020 using "TDM" or "pharmacokinetics" or "drug-drug-interaction" with "antifungal," consolidated for each AF. Selection was limited to English language articles with human data on drug exposure. RESULTS More than 1000 articles matched the search terms. We selected 566 publications. The latest findings tend to confirm previous observations in real-life clinical settings. The pharmacokinetic variability related to special populations is not specific but must be considered. AF benefit-to-risk ratio, drug-drug interaction (DDI) profiles, and minimal inhibitory concentrations for pathogens must be known to manage at-risk situations and patients. Itraconazole has replaced ketoconazole in healthy volunteers DDI studies. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling is widely used to assess metabolic azole DDI. AF prophylactic use was studied more for Aspergillus spp. and Mucorales in oncohematology and solid organ transplantation than for Candida (already studied). Emergence of central nervous system infection and severe infections in immunocompetent individuals both merit special attention. TDM is more challenging for azoles than amphotericin B and echinocandins. Fewer TDM requirements exist for fluconazole and isavuconazole (ISZ); however, ISZ is frequently used in clinical situations in which TDM is recommended. Voriconazole remains the most challenging of the AF, with toxicity limiting high-dose treatments. Moreover, alternative treatments (posaconazole tablets, ISZ) are now available. CONCLUSIONS TDM seems to be crucial for curative and/or long-term maintenance treatment in highly variable patients. TDM poses fewer cost issues than the drugs themselves or subsequent treatment issues. The integration of clinical pharmacology into multidisciplinary management is now increasingly seen as a part of patient care.

Abstract
Invasive fungal infections (IFI) are a common infection-related cause of death in immunocompromised patients. Approximately 10 million people are at risk of developing invasive aspergillosis annually. Detailed study of the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of antifungal drugs has resulted in a better understanding of optimal regimens for populations, drug exposure targets for therapeutic drug monitoring, and establishing in vitro susceptibility breakpoints. Importantly, however, each is an example of a “one size fits all strategy”, where complex systems are reduced to a singularity that ensures antifungal therapy is administered safely and effectively at the level of a population. Clearly, such a notion serves most patients adequately but is completely counter to the covenant at the centre of the clinician–patient relationship, where each patient should know whether they are well-positioned to maximally benefit from an antifungal drug. This review discusses the current therapy of fungal infections and areas of future research to maximise the effectiveness of antifungal therapy at an individual level.

Abstract
Antifungal prophylaxis can reduce morbidity and mortality from invasive fungal disease (IFD). However, its use needs to be optimised and appropriately targeted to patients at highest risk to derive the most benefit. In addition to established risks for IFD, considerable recent progress in the treatment of malignancies has resulted in the development of new 'at-risk' groups. The changing epidemiology of IFD and emergence of drug resistance continue to impact choice of prophylaxis, highlighting the importance of active surveillance and knowledge of local epidemiology. These guidelines aim to highlight emerging risk groups and review the evidence and limitations around new formulations of established agents and new antifungal drugs. It provides recommendations around use and choice of antifungal prophylaxis, discusses the potential impact of the changing epidemiology of IFD and emergence of drug resistance, and future directions for risk stratification to assist optimal management of highly vulnerable patients.

Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:1991. [PMID: 34959272 PMCID: PMC8707246 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13121991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Revised: 11/02/2021] [Accepted: 11/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The review includes studies dated 2011-2021 presenting the newest information on voriconazole (VCZ), mycophenolic acid (MPA), and vancomycin (VAN) therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in children. The need of TDM in pediatric patients has been emphasized by providing the information on the differences in the drugs pharmacokinetics. TDM of VCZ should be mandatory for all pediatric patients with invasive fungal infections (IFIs). Wide inter- and intrapatient variability in VCZ pharmacokinetics cause achieving and maintaining therapeutic concentration during therapy challenging in this population. Demonstrated studies showed, in most cases, VCZ plasma concentrations to be subtherapeutic, despite the updated dosages recommendations. Only repeated TDM can predict drug exposure and individualizing dosing in antifungal therapy in children. In children treated with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), similarly as in adult patients, the role of TDM for MMF active form, MPA, has not been well established and is undergoing continued debate. Studies on the MPA TDM have been carried out in children after renal transplantation, other organ transplantation such as heart, liver, or intestine, in children after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or cord blood transplantation, and in children with lupus, nephrotic syndrome, Henoch-Schönlein purpura, and other autoimmune diseases. MPA TDM is based on the area under the concentration-time curve; however, the proposed values differ according to the treatment indication, and other approaches such as pharmacodynamic and pharmacogenetic biomarkers have been proposed. VAN is a bactericidal agent that requires TDM to prevent an acute kidney disease. The particular group of patients is the pediatric one. For this group, the general recommendations of the dosing may not be valid due to the change of the elimination rate and volume of distribution between the subjects. The other factor is the variability among patients that concerns the free fraction of the drug. It may be caused by both the patients' population and sample preconditioning. Although VCZ, MMF, and VAN have been applied in pediatric patients for many years, there are still few issues to be solve regarding TDM of these drugs to ensure safe and effective treatment. Except for pharmacokinetic approach, pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics have been more often proposed for TDM.

Experience of a Strategy Including CYP2C19 Preemptive Genotyping Followed by Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Voriconazole in Patients Undergoing Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:717932.

Abstract
Many factors have been described to contribute to voriconazole (VCZ) interpatient variability in plasma concentrations, especially CYP2C19 genetic variability. In 2014, Hicks et al. presented data describing the correlation between VCZ plasma concentrations and CYP2C19 diplotypes in immunocompromised pediatric patients and utilized pharmacokinetic modeling to extrapolate a more suitable VCZ dose for each CYP2C19 diplotype. In 2017, in our hospital, a clinical protocol was developed for individualization of VCZ in immunocompromised patients based on preemptive genotyping of CYP2C19 and dosing proposed by Hicks et al., Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) clinical guidelines, and routine therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). We made a retrospective review of a cohort of 28 immunocompromised pediatric patients receiving VCZ according to our protocol. CYP2C19 gene molecular analysis was preemptively performed using PharmArray®. Plasma trough concentrations were measured by immunoassay analysis until target concentrations (1–5.5 μg/ml) were reached. Sixteen patients (57.14%) achieved VCZ trough target concentrations in the first measure after the initial dose based on PGx. This figure is similar to estimations made by Hicks et al. in their simulation (60%). Subdividing by phenotype, our genotyping and TDM-combined strategy allow us to achieve target concentrations during treatment/prophylaxis in 90% of the CYP2C19 Normal Metabolizers (NM)/Intermediate Metabolizers (IM) and 100% of the Rapid Metabolizers (RM) and Ultrarapid Metabolizers (UM) of our cohort. We recommended modifications of the initial dose in 29% (n = 8) of the patients. In RM ≥12 years old, an increase of the initial dose resulted in 50% of these patients achieving target concentrations in the first measure after initial dose adjustment based only on PGx information. Our experience highlights the need to improve VCZ dose predictions in children and the potential of preemptive genotyping and TDM to this aim. We are conducting a multicenter, randomized clinical trial in patients with risk of aspergillosis in order to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of VCZ individualization: VORIGENIPHARM (EudraCT: 2019-000376-41).

Impact of CYP2C19 Phenotype and Drug-Drug Interactions on Voriconazole Concentration in Pediatric Patients. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2021; 65:e0020721.

Abstract
Voriconazole (VRC), a first-line agent for the treatment of invasive fungal infections, is mainly metabolized by human cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19. In this study, a retrospective analysis was performed to investigate the key factors that influence the plasma trough concentration (Cmin) of VRC, and an appropriate dosing regimen for pediatric patients was drafted subsequently. Overall, factors such as age, CYP2C19 phenotype, and combination medication with proton pump inhibitors accounted for 23.4% of variability in dose-normalized Cmin values of VRC by a multiple linear regression analysis. Dose-normalized Cmin values in the poor metabolizers (PMs) and intermediate metabolizers (IMs) were significantly higher than those in extensive metabolizers (EMs) (P < 0.001). To achieve therapeutic Cmin for CYP2C19 ultrarapid metabolizers (UMs) or EMs, patients aged no more than 12 and more than 12 years required doses of 6.53 ± 2.08 and 3.95 ± 0.85 mg/kg of body weight twice daily (P = 0.007). For CYP2C19 PMs or IMs, patients aged under 12 and over 12 years required doses of 5.75 ± 1.73 and 4.23 ± 0.76 mg/kg twice daily, respectively (P = 0.019). Furthermore, coadministration of rifamycin sodium or omeprazole exhibited significant effects on VRC Cmin. Taken together, it is necessary to pay attention to the impact of CYP2C19 phenotype and drug-drug interactions to achieve optimal therapy.

Abstract
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is rapidly expanding into routine oncology practice. Genetic variations in both the cancer and inherited genomes are informative for hereditary cancer risk, prognosis, and treatment strategies. Herein, we focus on the clinical perspective of integrating NGS results into patient care to assist with therapeutic decision making. Five key considerations are addressed for operationalization of NGS testing and application of results to patient care as follows: (1) NGS test ordering and workflow design; (2) result reporting, curation, and storage; (3) clinical consultation services that provide test interpretations and identify opportunities for molecularly guided therapy; (4) presentation of genetic information within the electronic health record; and (5) education of providers and patients. Several of these key considerations center on informatics tools that support NGS test ordering and referencing back to the results for therapeutic purposes. Clinical decision support tools embedded within the electronic health record can assist with NGS test utilization and identifying opportunities for targeted therapy including clinical trial eligibility. Challenges for project and change management in operationalizing NGS-supported, evidence-based patient care in the context of current information technology systems with appropriate clinical data standards are discussed, and solutions for overcoming barriers are provided.

Combined Impact of Inflammation and Pharmacogenomic Variants on Voriconazole Trough Concentrations: A Meta-Analysis of Individual Data. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10102089.

Abstract
Few studies have simultaneously investigated the impact of inflammation and genetic polymorphisms of cytochromes P450 2C19 and 3A4 on voriconazole trough concentrations. We aimed to define the respective impact of inflammation and genetic polymorphisms on voriconazole exposure by performing individual data meta-analyses. A systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed to identify studies focusing on voriconazole therapeutic drug monitoring with data of both inflammation (assessed by C-reactive protein level) and the pharmacogenomics of cytochromes P450. Individual patient data were collected and analyzed in a mixed-effect model. In total, 203 patients and 754 voriconazole trough concentrations from six studies were included. Voriconazole trough concentrations were independently influenced by age, dose, C-reactive protein level, and both cytochrome P450 2C19 and 3A4 genotype, considered individually or through a combined genetic score. An increase in the C-reactive protein of 10, 50, or 100 mg/L was associated with an increased voriconazole trough concentration of 6, 35, or 82%, respectively. The inhibitory effect of inflammation appeared to be less important for patients with loss-of-function polymorphisms for cytochrome P450 2C19. Voriconazole exposure is influenced by age, inflammatory status, and the genotypes of both cytochromes P450 2C19 and 3A4, suggesting that all these determinants need to be considered in approaches of personalization of voriconazole treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Voriconazole primary metabolism is catalysed by CYP2C19. A large variability of trough concentrations in patients with invasive fungal infection treated with voriconazole has been observed in clinical practice. It remains controversial whether the CYP2C19 polymorphisms are responsible for voriconazole metabolism in the individual variation. OBJECTIVES The primary aim of this study was to assess the effect of CYP2C19 polymorphisms on voriconazole trough concentrations. METHODS Following a systematic literature review, we performed a meta-analysis for mean differences (MD) of voriconazole trough concentrations (Cmin ), voriconazole dosage adjusted trough concentrations (Cmin /D) and for risk ratio (RR) of the proportion of patients in the target therapeutic range between pairwise comparisons of CYP2C19 phenotypes. RESULTS Compared with normal metabolisers (NMs), intermediate metabolisers (IMs) (MD: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.57 to 1.07, I2 = 44%, p < .00001) or poor metabolisers (PMs) (MD: 1.59, 95% CI: 1.14 to 2.05, I2 = 46%, p < .00001) had significantly higher voriconazole Cmin (μg·ml-1 ), while rapid metabolisers (RMs) had significantly lower voriconazole Cmin (MD: -0,87, 95% CI: -1.35 to -0.38, I2 = 0%, p = .0004). In addition, IMs had significantly lower Cmin than PMs (MD: -0.59, 95% CI: -0.97 to -0.20, I2 = 22%, p = .003). Similarly, the Cmin /D (μg·kg·ml-1 ·mg-1 ) was significantly higher in IMs (MD: 0.13, 95% CI: 0.05 to 0.22, I2 = 0%, p = .002) and PMs (MD: 0.20, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.34, I2 = 0%, p = .003) than that in NMs, and also, IMs had significantly lower Cmin /D than PMs (MD: -0.11, 95% CI: -0.14 to -0.08, I2 = 0%, p < .00001). Furthermore, PMs had a significantly higher proportion of the target therapeutic range than NMs (RR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.09 to 1.64, I2 = 50%, p = .005). CONCLUSIONS Compared to NMs, IMs and PMs had higher voriconazole trough concentrations, especially in Asians, while RMs had lower voriconazole trough concentrations. In addition, PMs had a higher proportion of the target therapeutic range than NMs, especially in Asians. CYP2C19 genotyping is expected to be used to preemptively guide the individualisation of voriconazole in clinical practice.

Bacteroides Fragilis Polysaccharide A Ameliorates Abnormal Voriconazole Metabolism Accompanied With the Inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB Pathway. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:663325. [PMID: 33995087 PMCID: PMC8115215 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.663325] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
The antifungal agent voriconazole (VRC) exhibits extreme inter-individual and intra-individual variation in terms of its clinical efficacy and toxicity. Inflammation, as reflected by C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations, significantly affects the metabolic ratio and trough concentrations of voriconazole. Bacteroides fragilis (B. fragilis) is an important component of the human intestinal microbiota. Clinical data have shown that B. fragilis abundance is comparatively higher in patients not presenting with adverse drug reactions, and inflammatory cytokine (IL-1β) levels are negatively correlated with B. fragilis abundance. B. fragilis natural product capsular polysaccharide A (PSA) prevents various inflammatory disorders. We tested the hypothesis that PSA ameliorates abnormal voriconazole metabolism by inhibiting inflammation. Germ-free animals were administered PSA intragastrically for 5 days after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Their blood and liver tissues were collected to measure VRC concentrations. PSA administration dramatically improved the resolution phase of LPS-induced hepatic VRC metabolism and inflammatory factor secretion. It reversed inflammatory lesions and alleviated hepatic pro-inflammatory factor secretion. Both in vitro and in vivo data demonstrate that PSA reversed LPS-induced IL-1β secretion, downregulated the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway and upregulated CYP2C19 and P-gp. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to show that PSA from the probiotic B. fragilis ameliorates abnormal voriconazole metabolism by inhibiting TLR4-mediated NF-κB transcription and regulating drug metabolizing enzyme and transporter expression. Thus, PSA could serve as a clinical adjunct therapy.

UGT1A1 Guided Cancer Therapy: Review of the Evidence and Considerations for Clinical Implementation. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13071566. [PMID: 33805415 PMCID: PMC8036652 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13071566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2021] [Revised: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The use of multi-gene testing platforms to individualize treatment is rapidly expanding into routine oncology practice. UGT1A1, which encodes for the uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 enzyme, is commonly included on multi-gene molecular testing assays. UGT1A1 polymorphisms may influence drug-induced toxicities of numerous medications used in oncology. However, guidance for incorporating UGT1A1 results into therapeutic decision-making is sparse and can differ depending on the referenced resource. We summarize the literature describing associations between UGT1A1 polymorphisms and toxicity risk with irinotecan, belinostat, pazopanib, and nilotinib. Resources that provide recommendations for UGT1A1-guided drug prescribing are reviewed, and considerations for implementation into patient care are provided. Abstract Multi-gene assays often include UGT1A1 and, in certain instances, may report associated toxicity risks for irinotecan, belinostat, pazopanib, and nilotinib. However, guidance for incorporating UGT1A1 results into therapeutic decision-making is mostly lacking for these anticancer drugs. We summarized meta-analyses, genome-wide association studies, clinical trials, drug labels, and guidelines relating to the impact of UGT1A1 polymorphisms on irinotecan, belinostat, pazopanib, or nilotinib toxicities. For irinotecan, UGT1A1*28 was significantly associated with neutropenia and diarrhea, particularly with doses ≥ 180 mg/m2, supporting the use of UGT1A1 to guide irinotecan prescribing. The drug label for belinostat recommends a reduced starting dose of 750 mg/m2 for UGT1A1*28 homozygotes, though published studies supporting this recommendation are sparse. There was a correlation between UGT1A1 polymorphisms and pazopanib-induced hepatotoxicity, though further studies are needed to elucidate the role of UGT1A1-guided pazopanib dose adjustments. Limited studies have investigated the association between UGT1A1 polymorphisms and nilotinib-induced hepatotoxicity, with data currently insufficient for UGT1A1-guided nilotinib dose adjustments.

Optimization of voriconazole therapy for treatment of invasive aspergillosis: Pharmacogenomics and inflammatory status need to be evaluated. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2020; 87:2534-2541.

Abstract
AIMS Cytochrome 2C19 genotype-directed dosing of voriconazole (VRC) reduces the incidence of insufficient VRC trough concentrations (Cmin ) but does not account for CYP3A polymorphisms, also involved in VRC metabolism. This prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the utility of a genetic score combining CYP2C19 and CYP3A genotypes to predict insufficient initial VRC Cmin (<1 mg/L). METHODS The genetic score was determined in hematological patients treated with VRC. The higher the genetic score, the faster the metabolism of the patient. The impact of the genetic score was evaluated considering initial VRC Cmin and all VRC Cmin (n = 159) determined during longitudinal therapeutic drug monitoring. RESULTS Forty-three patients were included, of whom 41 received VRC for curative indication. Thirty-six patients had a genetic score ≥2, of whom 11 had an initial insufficient VRC Cmin . A genetic score ≥2 had a positive predictive value of 0.31 for having an initial insufficient VRC Cmin and initial VRC Cmin was not associated with the genetic score. The lack of association between the genetic score and VRC Cmin may be related to the inflammatory status of the patients (C-reactive protein [CRP] levels: median [Q1-Q3]: 43.0 [11.0-110.0] mg/L), as multivariate analysis performed on all VRC Cmin identified CRP as an independent determinant of the VRC Cmin adjusted for dose (P < .0001). CONCLUSION The combined genetic score did not predict low VRC exposure in patients with inflammation, which is frequent in patients with invasive fungal infections. Strategies for the individualization of VRC dose should integrate the inflammatory status of patients in addition to pharmacogenetic variants.

Abstract
Voriconazole is the mainstay for the treatment of invasive fungal infections in patients who underwent a kidney transplant. Variant CYP2C19 alleles, hepatic function, and concomitant medications are directly involved in the metabolism of voriconazole. However, the drug is also associated with numerous adverse events. The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of adverse events using binary logistic regression and to measure its trough concentration using multiple linear modeling. We conducted a prospective analysis of 93 kidney recipients cotreated with voriconazole and recorded 213 trough concentrations of it. Predictors of the adverse events were voriconazole trough concentration with the odds ratios (OR) of 2.614 (P = 0.016), cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19), and hemoglobin (OR 0.181, P = 0.005). The predictive power of these three factors was 91.30%. We also found that CYP2C19 phenotypes, hemoglobin, platelet count, and concomitant use of ilaprazole had quantitative relationships with voriconazole trough concentration. The fit coefficient of this regression equation was R2 = 0.336, demonstrating that the model explained 33.60% of interindividual variability in the disposition of voriconazole. In conclusion, predictors of adverse events are CYP2C19 phenotypes, hemoglobin, and voriconazole trough concentration. Determinants of the voriconazole trough concentration were CYP2C19 phenotypes, platelet count, hemoglobin, concomitant use of ilaprazole. If we consider these factors during voriconazole use, we are likely to maximize the treatment effect and minimize adverse events.

Abstract
Objectives To examine current knowledge on the clinical utility of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in voriconazole therapy, the impact of CYP2C19 genotype on voriconazole plasma concentrations, and the role of CYP2C19 genotyping in voriconazole therapy. Data Sources Three literature searches were conducted for original reports on (1) TDM and voriconazole outcomes and (2) voriconazole and CYP2C19 polymorphisms. Searches were conducted through EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to June 2020. Study Selection and Data Extraction Randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, and case series with ≥10 patients were included. Only full-text references in English were eligible. Data Synthesis A total of 63 studies were reviewed. TDM was recommended because of established concentration and efficacy/toxicity relationships. Voriconazole trough concentrations ≥1.0 mg/L were associated with treatment success; supratherapeutic concentrations were associated with increased neurotoxicity; and hepatotoxicity associations were more prevalent in Asian populations. CYP2C19 polymorphisms significantly affect voriconazole metabolism, but no relationship with efficacy/safety were found. Genotype-guided dosing with TDM was reported to increase chances of achieving therapeutic range. Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice Genotype-guided dosing with TDM is a potential solution to optimizing voriconazole efficacy while avoiding treatment failures and common toxicities. Conclusions Voriconazole plasma concentrations and TDM are treatment outcome predictors, but research is needed to form a consensus target therapeutic range and dosage adjustment guidelines based on plasma concentrations. CYP2C19 polymorphisms are a predictor of voriconazole concentrations and metabolism, but clinical implications are not established. Large-scale, high-methodological-quality trials are required to investigate the role for prospective genotyping and establish CYP2C19-guided voriconazole dosing recommendations.

Abstract
Purpose of Review This review summarizes recent literature for applying pharmacogenomics to antifungal selection and dosing, providing an approach to implementing antifungal pharmacogenomics in clinical practice. Recent Findings The Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium published guidelines on CYP2C19 and voriconazole, with recommendations to use alternative antifungals or adjust voriconazole dose with close therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Recent studies demonstrate an association between CYP2C19 phenotype and voriconazole levels, clinical outcomes, and adverse events. Additionally, CYP2C19-guided preemptive dose adjustment demonstrated benefit in two prospective studies for prophylaxis. Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling studies have generated proposed voriconazole treatment doses based on CYP2C19 phenotypes, with further validation studies needed. Summary Sufficient evidence is available for implementing CYP2C19-guided voriconazole selection and dosing among select patients at risk for invasive fungal infections. The institution needs appropriate infrastructure for pharmacogenomic testing, integration of results in the clinical decision process, with TDM confirmation of goal trough achievement, to integrate antifungal pharmacogenomics into routine clinical care.
