Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Clozapine is the medication of choice for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. However, it has a complex metabolism and unexplained interindividual variability. The current work aims to develop a pharmacokinetic model of clozapine and norclozapine in non-smokers and assess the impact of demographic and genetic predictors. METHODS Healthy volunteers were recruited in a population pharmacokinetic study. Blood samples were collected at 30 min and 1, 2, 3, 5 and 8 h following a single flat dose of clozapine (12.5 mg). The clozapine and norclozapine concentrations were measured via high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet method. A semi-physiological pharmacokinetic model of clozapine and norclozapine was developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Clinical and genetic predictors were evaluated, including CYP1A2 (rs762551) and ABCB1 (rs2032582), using restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS A total of 270 samples were collected from 33 participants. The data were best described using a two-compartment model for clozapine and a two-compartment model for norclozapine with first-order absorption and elimination and pre-systemic metabolism. The estimated (relative standard error) clearance of clozapine and norclozapine were 27 L h-1 (31.5 %) and 19.6 L h-1 (30%), respectively. Clozapine clearance was lower in sub-Saharan Africans (n = 4) and higher in Caucasians (n = 9) than Asians (n = 20). Participants with CYP1A2 (rs762551) (n = 18) and ABCB1 (rs2032582) (n = 12) mutant alleles had lower clozapine clearance in the univariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to develop a semi-physiological pharmacokinetic model of clozapine and norclozapine accounting for the pre-systemic metabolism. Asians required lower doses of clozapine as compared with Caucasians, while clozapine pharmacokinetics in sub-Saharan Africans should be further investigated in larger trials.

Abstract
Clozapine (CLZ) is an atypical antipsychotic reserved for patients with refractory psychosis, but it is associated with a significant risk of severe adverse reactions (ADRs) that are potentiated with the concomitant use of alcohol. Additionally, pharmacogenetic studies have explored the influence of several genetic variants in CYP450, receptors and transporters involved in the interindividual response to CLZ. Herein, we systematically review the current multiomics knowledge behind the interaction between CLZ and alcohol intake, and how its concomitant use might modulate the pharmacogenetics. CYP1A2*1F, *1C and other alleles not yet discovered could support a precision medicine approach for better therapeutic effects and fewer CLZ ADRs. CLZ monitoring systems should be amended and include alcohol intake to protect patients from severe CLZ ADRs.

CYP2D6 Genetic Variation and Antipsychotic-Induced Weight Gain: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Psychol 2022; 12:768748. [PMID: 35185676 PMCID: PMC8850377 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2021.768748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic-induced weight gain is a contributing factor in the reduced life expectancy reported amongst people with psychotic disorders. CYP2D6 is a liver enzyme involved in the metabolism of many commonly used antipsychotic medications. We investigated if CYP2D6 genetic variation influenced weight or BMI among people taking antipsychotic treatment. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and a random effects meta-analysis of publications in Pubmed, Embase, PsychInfo, and CENTRAAL that had BMI and/or weight measurements of patients on long-term antipsychotics by their CYP2D6-defined metabolic groups (poor, intermediate, normal/extensive, and ultra-rapid metabolizers, UMs). RESULTS Twelve studies were included in the systematic review. All cohort studies suggested that the presence of reduced-function or non-functional alleles for CYP2D6 was associated with greater antipsychotic-induced weight gain, whereas most cross-sectional studies did not find any significant associations. Seventeen studies were included in the meta-analysis with clinical data of 2,041 patients, including 93 poor metabolizers (PMs), 633 intermediate metabolizers (IMs), 1,272 normal metabolizers (NMs), and 30 UMs. Overall, we did not find associations in any of the comparisons made. The estimated pooled standardized differences for the following comparisons were (i) PM versus NM; weight = -0.07 (95%CI: -0.49 to 0.35, p = 0.74), BMI = 0.40 (95%CI: -0.19 to 0.99, p = 0.19). (ii) IM versus NM; weight = 0.09 (95% CI: -0.04 to 0.22, p = 0.16) and BMI = 0.09 (95% CI: -0.24 to 0.41, p = 0.60). (iii) UM versus EM; weight = 0.01 (95% CI: -0.37 to 0.40, p = 0.94) and BMI = -0.08 (95%CI: -0.57 to 0.42, p = 0.77). CONCLUSION Our systematic review of cohort studies suggested that CYP2D6 poor metabolizers have higher BMI than normal metabolizers, but the data of cross-sectional studies and the meta-analysis did not show this association. Although our review and meta-analysis constitutes one of the largest studies with comprehensively genotyped samples, the literature is still limited by small numbers of participants with genetic variants resulting in poor or UMs status. We need further studies with larger numbers of extreme metabolizers to establish its clinical utility in antipsychotic treatment. CYP2D6 is a key gene for personalized prescribing in mental health.
