Abstract
BACKGROUND Pazopanib, an anti-angiogenic multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been approved for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma and soft tissue sarcoma. However, its recommended dose does not always produce consistent outcomes, with some patients experiencing adverse effects or toxicity. This variability is due to differences in the systemic exposure to pazopanib. This review aimed to establish whether sufficient evidence exists for the routine or selective therapeutic drug monitoring of pazopanib in adult patients with approved indications. METHODS A systematic search of the PubMed and Web of Science databases using search terms related to pazopanib and therapeutic drug monitoring yielded 186 and 275 articles, respectively. Ten articles associated with treatment outcomes or toxicity due to drug exposure were selected for review. RESULTS The included studies were evaluated to determine the significance of the relationship between drug exposure/Ctrough and treatment outcomes and between drug exposure and toxicity. A relationship between exposure and treatment outcomes was observed in 5 studies, whereas the trend was nonsignificant in 4 studies. A relationship between exposure and toxicity was observed in 6 studies, whereas 2 studies did not find a significant relationship; significance was not reported in 3 studies. CONCLUSIONS Sufficient evidence supports the therapeutic drug monitoring of pazopanib in adult patients to improve its efficacy and/or safety in the approved indications.

In vivo imaging system (IVIS) therapeutic assessment of tyrosine kinase inhibitor-loaded gold nanocarriers for acute myeloid leukemia: a pilot study. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1382399.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignancy in the myeloid lineage that is characterized by symptoms like fatigue, bleeding, infections, or anemia, and it can be fatal if untreated. In AML, mutations in tyrosine kinases (TKs) lead to enhanced tumor cell survival. The most frequent mutations in TKs are reported in Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), and KIT (tyrosine-protein kinase KIT), making these TKs potential targets for TK inhibitor (TKI) therapies in AML. With 30% of the mutations in TKs, mutated FLT3 is associated with poor overall survival and an increased chance of resistance to therapy. FLT3 inhibitors are used in FLT3-mutant AML, and the combination with hypomethylating agents displayed promising results. Midostaurin (MDS) is the first targeted therapy in FLT3-mutant AML, and its combination with chemotherapy showed good results. However, chemotherapies induce several side effects, and an alternative to chemotherapy might be the use of nanoparticles for better drug delivery, improved bioavailability, reduced drug resistance and induced toxicity. The herein study presents MDS-loaded gold nanoparticles and compares its efficacy with MDS alone, on both in vitro and in vivo models, using the FLT3-ITD-mutated AML cell line MV-4-11 Luc2 transfected to express luciferin. Our preclinical study suggests that MDS-loaded nanoparticles have a better tumor inhibitory effect than free drugs on in vivo models by controlling tumor growth in the first half of the treatment, while in the second part of the therapy, the tumor size was comparable to the cohort that was treatment-free.

Abstract
The architecture of cell culture-two-dimensional (2D) versus three-dimensional (3D)-significantly impacts various cellular factors, including cell-cell interactions, nutrient and oxygen gradients, metabolic activity, and gene expression profiles. This can result in different cellular responses during cancer drug treatment, with 3D-cultured cells often exhibiting higher resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. While various genetic and proteomic analyses have been employed to investigate the underlying mechanisms of this increased resistance, complementary techniques that provide experimental evidence of spatial molecular profiling data are limited. Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy has demonstrated its capability to measure both intracellular drug uptake and growth inhibition. In this work, we applied three-band SRS imaging to 2D and 3D cell cultures and provided a comparative analysis of drug uptake and response with the goal of understanding whether the difference in drug uptake explains the drug resistance in 3D culture compared to 2D. Our investigations revealed that despite similar intracellular drug levels in 2D and 3D A549 cells during lapatinib treatment, the growth of 3D spheroids is less impacted, supporting an enhanced drug tolerance in the 3D microenvironment. We further elucidated drug penetration patterns and the resulting heterogeneous cellular responses across different spheroid layers. Additionally, we investigated the role of the extracellular matrix in modulating drug delivery and cell response, and we discovered that limited drug penetration in 3D could also contribute to lower drug response. Our study provides valuable insights into the intricate mechanisms of increased drug resistance in 3D tumor models during cancer drug treatments.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane protein commonly targeted by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as a front-line therapy for patients with many cancers including nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Effective treatment requires efficient intracellular drug uptake and target binding. However, despite the recent success in the development of new TKI drugs, the mechanisms of uptake for many TKIs are still poorly understood due to the difficulty in imaging and measuring nonfluorescent drug molecules at a subcellular resolution. It has previously been shown that weakly basic TKI drugs are sequestered in lysosomes. Leveraging this property, we apply hyperspectral stimulated Raman scattering imaging to directly visualize and quantify two Food and Drug Administration-approved EGFR inhibitor drugs (lapatinib and afatinib) inside living cells and the changes in their cellular uptake upon the addition of organic cation transporter inhibitors. These single-cell quantitative measurements provide new insight into the role of membrane transporters in the uptake of TKI drugs in living cells.

Drug-drug interactions that alter the exposure of glucuronidated drugs: Scope, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzyme selectivity, mechanisms (inhibition and induction), and clinical significance. Pharmacol Ther 2023:108459. [PMID: 37263383 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2023.108459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/03/2023]
Abstract
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) arising from the perturbation of drug metabolising enzyme activities represent both a clinical problem and a potential economic loss for the pharmaceutical industry. DDIs involving glucuronidated drugs have historically attracted little attention and there is a perception that interactions are of minor clinical relevance. This review critically examines the scope and aetiology of DDIs that result in altered exposure of glucuronidated drugs. Interaction mechanisms, namely inhibition and induction of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes and the potential interplay with drug transporters, are reviewed in detail, as is the clinical significance of known DDIs. Altered victim drug exposure arising from modulation of UGT enzyme activities is relatively common and, notably, the incidence and importance of UGT induction as a DDI mechanism is greater than generally believed. Numerous DDIs are clinically relevant, resulting in either loss of efficacy or an increased risk of adverse effects, necessitating dose individualisation. Several generalisations relating to the likelihood of DDIs can be drawn from the known substrate and inhibitor selectivities of UGT enzymes, highlighting the importance of comprehensive reaction phenotyping studies at an early stage of drug development. Further, rigorous assessment of the DDI liability of new chemical entities that undergo glucuronidation to a significant extent has been recommended recently by regulatory guidance. Although evidence-based approaches exist for the in vitro characterisation of UGT enzyme inhibition and induction, the availability of drugs considered appropriate for use as 'probe' substrates in clinical DDI studies is limited and this should be research priority.

Abstract
Ripretinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), is the first FDA approved fourth-line therapy for adults with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Studies have shown that several TKIs for treating GIST were potent inhibitors of human UDP- glucosyltransferase (UGTs) enzymes. However, whether ripretinib affects the activity of UGTs remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ripretinib on major UGT isoforms, as well as to evaluate its potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) risk caused by the inhibition of UGTs activities. The inhibitory effects and inhibition modes of ripretinib on UGTs were systematically evaluated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and enzyme kinetic studies, respectively. Our data showed that ripretinib exhibited potent inhibition against UGT1A1, UGT1A3, UGT1A4, UGT1A7 and UGT1A8. Enzyme kinetic studies indicated that ripretinib was not only a competitive inhibitor of UGT1A1, UGT1A4 and UGT1A7, but also a noncompetitive inhibitor of UGT1A3, as well as a mixed inhibitor of UGT1A8. The prediction results of in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) demonstrated that ripretinib might bring the potential risk of DDIs when combined with substrates of UGT1A1, UGT1A3, UGT1A4, UGT1A7 or UGT1A8. Therefore, special attention should be paid when ripretinib is used in conjunction with other drugs metabolized by UGTs to avoid risk of DDIs in clinic.

Abstract
UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs), important enzymes in biotransformation, control the levels and distribution of numerous endogenous signaling molecules and the metabolism of a wide range of endogenous and exogenous chemicals. The UGT superfamily in mammals consists of the UGT1, UGT2, UGT3, and UGT8 families. UGTs are rate-limiting enzymes in the glucuronate pathway, and in tumors, they are either overexpressed or underexpressed. Alterations in their metabolism can affect gluconeogenesis and lipid metabolism pathways, leading to alterations in tumor cell metabolism, which affect cancer development and prognosis. Glucuronidation is the most common mammalian conjugation pathway. Most of its reactions are mainly catalyzed by UGT1A, UGT2A and UGT2B. The body excretes UGT-bound small lipophilic molecules through the bile, urine, or feces. UGTs conjugate a variety of tiny lipophilic molecules to sugars, such as galactose, xylose, acetylglucosamine, glucuronic acid, and glucose, thereby inactivating and making water-soluble substrates, such as carcinogens, medicines, steroids, lipids, fatty acids, and bile acids. This review summarizes the roles of members of the four UGT enzyme families in tumor function, metabolism, and multiple regulatory mechanisms, and its Inhibitors and inducers. The function of UGTs in lipid metabolism, drug metabolism, and hormone metabolism in tumor cells are among the most important topics covered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cabozantinib is a multiple receptor tyrosine kinases inhibitor (TKI) approved to treat progressive, metastatic medullary thyroid cancer, advanced renal cell carcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Drugdrug interactions (DDIs) for cabozantinib have been identified involving the role of cytochromes P450. Although the previous study reported that cabozantinib showed a slight inhibition of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 at the highest concentration tested, there are no reports on the potential for UGTs-mediated-DDIs. Hence, the current study aims to address this knowledge gap. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effect of cabozantinib on human UGTs and to quantitatively evaluate the DDI potential via UGT inhibition. METHODS The inhibitory effects of cabozantinib on UGTs were determined by measuring the formation rates for 4- methylumbelliferone (4-MU) glucuronide and trifluoperazine N-glucuronide using recombinant human UGT isoforms in the absence or presence of cabozantinib. Inhibition kinetic studies were conducted to determine the type of inhibition of cabozantinib on UGTs and the corresponding inhibition constant (Ki) value. In vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) was further employed to predict the potential risk of DDI in vivo. RESULTS Cabozantinib displayed potent inhibition of UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A4, 1A6, 1A7, 1A8, 1A9, 1A10, 2B7, and 2B15. Cabozantinib exhibited noncompetitive inhibition towards UGT1A1 and 1A3 and inhibition towards UGT1A7 and 1A9. The Ki,u values (mean ± standard deviation) were calculated to be 2.15±0.11 μM, 0.83±0.05 μM, 0.75±0.04 μM and 0.18 ± 0.10 μM for UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A7 and 1A9, respectively. Co-administration of cabozantinib at the clinically approved dose of 60 mg/day or 140 mg/day may result in approximately a 26% to 60% increase in the systemic exposure of drugs predominantly cleared by UGT1A9, implying a high risk of DDIs. CONCLUSION Cabozantinib has the potential to cause DDIs via the inhibition of UGT1A9; therefore, additional attention should be paid to the safety of the combined use of cabozantinib and drugs metabolized by UGT1A9.

Abstract
The integration of genomic data into personalized treatment planning has revolutionized oncology care. Despite this, patients with cancer remain vulnerable to high rates of adverse drug events and medication inefficacy, affecting prognosis and quality of life. Pharmacogenomics is a field seeking to identify germline genetic variants that contribute to an individual's unique drug response. Although there is widespread integration of genomic information in oncology, somatic platforms, rather than germline biomarkers, have dominated the attention of cancer providers. Patients with cancer potentially stand to benefit from improved integration of both somatic and germline genomic information, especially because the latter may complement treatment planning by informing toxicity risk for drugs with treatment-limiting tolerabilities and narrow therapeutic indices. Although certain germline pharmacogenes, such as TPMT, UGT1A1, and DPYD, have been recognized for decades, recent attention has illuminated modern potential dosing implications for a whole new set of anticancer agents, including targeted therapies and antibody-drug conjugates, as well as the discovery of additional genetic variants and newly relevant pharmacogenes. Some of this information has risen to the level of directing clinical action, with US Food and Drug Administration label guidance and recommendations by international societies and governing bodies. This review is focused on key new pharmacogenomic evidence and oncology-specific dosing recommendations. Personalized oncology care through integrated pharmacogenomics represents a unique multidisciplinary collaboration between oncologists, laboratory science, bioinformatics, pharmacists, clinical pharmacologists, and genetic counselors, among others. The authors posit that expanded consideration of germline genetic information can further transform the safe and effective practice of oncology in 2022 and beyond.

Inhibition of Human UGT1A1-Mediated Bilirubin Glucuronidation by the Popular Flavonoids Baicalein, Baicalin and Hyperoside is responsible for Herbs (Shuang-huang-lian) -Induced Jaundice. Drug Metab Dispos 2022; 50:552-565.

Abstract
Bilirubin-related adverse drug reactions (ADRs) or malady (e.g., jaundice) induced by some herbs rich in certain flavonoids have been widely reported. However, the causes and mechanisms of the ADRs are not well understood. The aim of this paper was to explore the mechanism of Shuang-huang-lian injections (SHL) and its major constituents-induced jaundice via inhibiting human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases1A1 (hUGT1A1)-mediated bilirubin glucuronidation. The inhibitory effects of SHL and its major constituents in the herbal medicine including baicalein (BAI), baicalin (BA) and hyperoside (HYP) on bilirubin glucuronidation were investigated. This study indicated that the average formation rates of bilirubin glucuronides (i.e., BMG1, BMG2, BDG) displayed significant differences (P <0.05), specially, the formation of mono-glucuronides (BMGs) was favored regardless whether an inhibitor was absent or presence. SHL, BAI, BA and HYP dose-dependently inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation, showing the IC50 values against total bilirubin glucuronidation (TBG) were in the range of (7.69 {plus minus} 0.94) μg/mL - (37.09 {plus minus} 2.03) μg/mL, (4.51 {plus minus} 0.27) μM - (20.84 {plus minus} 1.99) μM, (22.36 {plus minus} 5.74) μM - (41.35 {plus minus} 2.40) μM, and (15.16 {plus minus} 1.12) μM - (42.80 {plus minus} 2.63) μM for SHL, BAI, BA, and HYP, respectively. Both inhibition kinetics assays and molecular docking simulations suggested that SHL, BAI, BA, and HYP significantly inhibited hUGT1A1-mediated bilirubin glucuronidation via a mixed-type inhibition. Collectively, some naturally occurring flavonoids (BAI, BA and HYP) in SHL have been identified as the inhibitors against hUGT1A1-mediated bilirubin glucuronidation, which well-explains the bilirubin-related ADRs or malady triggered by SHL in clinical settings. Significance Statement Herbal products and their components (e.g., flavonoids), which been widely used in the whole world, may cause liver injury. As a commonly used herbal products rich in flavonoids, Shuang-huang-lian injections (SHL), easily lead to symptoms of liver injury (e.g., jaundice) owing to significant inhibition of hUGT1A1-mediated bilirubin glucuronidation by its flavonoid components (i.e., baicalein, baicalin, hyperoside). Herbs-induced bilirubin-related ADRs and its associated clinical significance should be seriously considered.

Tan YW. Is dose modification or discontinuation of nilotinib necessary in nilotinib-induced hyperbilirubinemia? World J Meta-Anal 2021; 9:488-495. [DOI: 10.13105/wjma.v9.i6.488] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 12/24/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Nilotinib is a specific breakpoint cluster region-Abelson leukemia virus-tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is used as an effective first- or second-line treatment in imatinib-resistant chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients. Hepatotoxicity due to nilotinib is a commonly reported side effect; however, abnormal liver function test (LFT) results have been reported in asymptomatic cases. When alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels are more than five-fold the upper limit of the normal (ULN) or when the serum total bilirubin level is more than three-fold the ULN, dose modification or discontinuation of nilotinib is recommended, resulting in decreased levels of hematological indicators in certain patients with CML. Nilotinib-induced hyperbilirubinemia typically manifests as indirect bilirubinemia without elevated ALT or AST levels. Such abnormal liver functioning is thus not attributed to the presence of a true histologic lesion of the liver. The underlying mechanism may be related to the inhibition of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase activity. Therefore, nilotinib dose adjustment is not recommended for this type of hyperbilirubinemia, and in the absence of elevated liver enzyme levels or presence of abnormal LFT findings, physicians should consider maintaining nilotinib dose intensity without modifications.

Abstract
Beginning with imatinib and now spanning 6 oral, highly active, and mostly safe agents, the development of specific targeted therapy for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has created a new world featuring chronic maintenance chemotherapy for all treated as such, treatment-free remission, and functional cure after prolonged deep remission in a subset. As a result comes a necessary shift in focus from acute to chronic toxicity, increasing attention to patient comorbidities, and critical thinking around specific adverse events such as metabolic, cardiovascular, and cardiopulmonary effects, which vary from agent to agent. This review aims to pull together the state of the art of managing the "C" in CML-a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm treated at present over many years with oral BCR-ABL-targeted agents in a population whose overall health can be complex and potentially affected by disease and therapy-and determine how we can better manage a highly treatable and increasingly curable cancer.

Abstract
Methylophiopogonanone A (MOA) is an abundant homoisoflavonoid in the Chinese herb Ophiopogonis Radix. Recent investigations revealed that MOA inhibited several human cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) and stimulated OATP1B1. However, the inhibitory effects of MOA on phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes, such as human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (hUGTs), have not been well investigated. Herein, the inhibition potentials of MOA on hUGTs were assessed. The results clearly demonstrated that MOA dose-dependently inhibited all tested hUGTs including UGT1A1 (IC50 = 1.23 μM), one of the most important detoxification enzymes in humans. Further investigations showed that MOA strongly inhibited UGT1A1-catalysed NHPH-O-glucuronidation in a range of biological settings including hUGT1A1, human liver microsomes (HLM) and HeLa cells overexpressing UGT1A1. Inhibition kinetic analyses demonstrated that MOA competitively inhibited UGT1A1-catalysed NHPH-O-glucuronidation in both hUGT1A1 and HLM, with Ki values of 0.52 and 1.22 μM, respectively. Collectively, our findings expanded knowledge of the interactions between MOA and human drug-metabolizing enzymes, which would be very helpful for guiding the use of MOA-related herbal products in clinical settings.

Abstract
Dabrafenib is a novel small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) which is used to treat metastatic melanoma. The aim of this research was to survey the effects of dabrafenib on human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) and to evaluate the risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs). The formation rates for 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) glucuronide and trifluoperazine-glucuronide in 12 recombinant human UGT isoforms with or without dabrafenib were measured and HPLC was used to investigate the inhibitory effects of dabrafenib on UGTs. Inhibition kinetic studies were also conducted. In vitro-in vivo extrapolation approaches were further used to predict the risk of DDI potentials of dabrafenib via inhibition of UGTs. Our data indicated that dabrafenib had a broad inhibitory effect on 4-MU glucuronidation by inhibiting the activities of UGTs, especially on UGT1A1, UGT1A7, UGT1A8, and UGT1A9, and dabrafenib could increase the area under the curve of co-administered drugs. Dabrafenib is a strong inhibitor of several UGTs and the co-administration of dabrafenib with drugs primarily metabolized by UGT1A1, 1A7, 1A8 or 1A9 may induce potential DDIs.

Abstract
Osimertinib is the only third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This study aimed to know the inhibitory effect of osimertinib on human UDP-glucosyltransferases (UGTs) and human liver microsomes (HLMs), as well as to identify its potential to cause drug-drug interaction (DDI) arising from the modulation of UGT activity. High inhibitory effect of osimertinib was shown towards UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A6, 1A7, 1A8, 1A10, 2B7 and 2B15. Especially, osimertinib exhibited competitive inhibition against UGT1A1 with a Ki,u of 0.87 ± 0.12 μM. It also noncompetitively inhibited SN-38 glucuronidation in pooled HLMs with a Ki,u of 3.32 ± 0.25 μM. Results from quantitative prediction study indicated that osimertinib administered at 80 mg/day may result in a 4.83 % increase in the AUC of drugs mainly metabolized by UGT1A1, implying low risk of DDI via liver metabolism. However, the ratios of [I]gut/Ki,u are much higher than 11 in HLMs and recombinant UGT1A1, indicating a risk for interaction in intestine. The effects of osimertinib on intestinal UGT should be paid more attention on to avoid unnecessary clinical DDI risks.

Abstract
Ibrutinib and acalabrutinib are two Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors which have gained Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the treatment of various B cell malignancies. Herein, we investigated the effects of the two drugs on UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) activities to evaluate their potential risk for drug-drug interactions (DDIs) via UGT inhibition. Our data indicated that ibrutinib exerted broad inhibition on most of UGTs, including a potent competitive inhibition against UGT1A1 with a Ki value of 0.90 ± 0.03 μM, a noncompetitive inhibition against UGT1A3 and UGT1A7 with Ki values of 0.88 ± 0.03 μM and 2.52 ± 0.23 μM, respectively, while acalabrutinib only exhibited weak UGT inhibition towards all tested UGT isoforms. DDI risk prediction suggested that the inhibition against UGT1A1 and UGT1A3 by ibrutinib might bring a potential DDIs risk, while acalabrutinib was unlikely to trigger clinically significant UGT-mediated DDIs due to its weak effects. Our study raises an alarm bell about potential DDI risk associated with ibrutinib, however, the extrapolation from in vitro data to in vivo drug interactions should be taken with caution, and additional systemic study is needed.

Abstract
UGT1A1 is the only enzyme that can metabolize bilirubin, and its encoding gene is frequently mutated. UGT1A1*6 (G71R) is a common mutant in Asia which leads to the decrease of UGT1A1 activity and abnormal bilirubin metabolism. However, it is not clear whether low UGT1A1 activity-induced bilirubin metabolism disorder increases hepatocyte fragility. ugt1a+/- mice were used to simulate the UGT1A1*6 (G71R) population. Under the same CCl4 induction condition, ugt1a+/- mice showed severer liver damage and fibrosis, indicating that ugt1a1 dysfunction increased liver burden and aggravated hepatocyte damage. In the animal experiment with a continuous intraperitoneal injection of bilirubin, the ugt1a+/- mice livers had more serious unconjugated bilirubin accumulation. The accumulated bilirubin leads to hyperphosphorylation of IκB-α, Ikk-β, and p65 and a significant increase of inflammatory factor. The α-SMA and Collagen I proteins markedly up-regulated in the ugt1a+/- mice livers. Immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy showed that hepatic stellate cells and Kupffer cells were activated in ugt1a+/- mice. Comprehensive results show that there was a crosstalk relationship between low UGT1A1 activity-bilirubin-liver damage. Furthermore, cell experiments confirmed that unconjugated bilirubin activated the NF-κB pathway and induced DNA damage in hepatocytes, leading to the significant increase of inflammatory factors. UGT1A1 knockdown in hepatocytes aggravated the toxicity of unconjugated bilirubin. Conversely, overexpression of UGT1A1 had a protective effect on hepatocytes. Finally, Schisandrin B, an active ingredient with hepatoprotective effects, extracted from a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, which could protect the liver from bilirubin metabolism disorders caused by ugt1a1 deficiency by downregulating p65 phosphorylation, inhibiting Kupffer cells, reducing inflammation levels. Our data clarified the mechanism of liver vulnerability caused by cross-talk between low UGT1A1 activity bilirubin, and provided a reference for individualized prevention of liver fragility in Gilbert's syndrome.

Abstract
Human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes (hUGTs), one of the most important classes of conjugative enzymes, are responsible for the glucuronidation and detoxification of a variety of endogenous substances and xenobiotics. Inhibition of hUGTs may cause undesirable effects or adverse drug-drug interactions (DDI) via modulating the glucuronidation rates of endogenous toxins or the drugs that are primarily conjugated by the inhibited hUGTs. Herein, to screen hUGTs inhibitors in a more efficient way, a novel fluorescence-based microplate assay has been developed by utilizing a fluorogenic substrate. Following screening of series of 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthalimide derivatives, we found that 4-HN-335 is a particularly good substrate for a panel of hUGTs. Under physiological conditions, 4-HN-335 can be readily O-glucuronidated by ten hUGTs, such reactions generate a single O-glucuronide with a high quantum yield (Ф = 0.79) and bring remarkable changes in fluorescence emission. Subsequently, a fluorescence-based microplate assay is developed to simultaneously measure the inhibitory effects of selected compound(s) on ten hUGTs. The newly developed fluorescence-based microplate assay is time- and cost-saving, easy to manage and can be adapted for 96-well microplate format with the Z-factor of 0.92. We further demonstrate the utility of the fluorescence-based assay for high-throughput screening of two compound libraries, resulting in the identification of several potent UGT inhibitors, including natural products and FDA-approved drugs. Collectively, this study reports a novel fluorescence-based microplate assay for simultaneously sensing the residual activities of ten hUGTs, which strongly facilitates the identification and characterization of UGT inhibitors from drugs or herbal constituents and the investigations on UGT-mediated DDI.

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.

Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 180:252-261. [PMID: 33741369 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.03.073] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2020] [Revised: 03/12/2021] [Accepted: 03/13/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Strong inhibition of the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes (UGTs) may lead to undesirable effects, including hyperbilirubinaemia and drug/herb-drug interactions. Currently, there is no good way to examine the inhibitory effects and specificities of compounds toward all the important human UGTs, side-by-side and under identical conditions. Herein, we report a new, broad-spectrum substrate for human UGTs and its uses in screening and characterizing of UGT inhibitors. Following screening a variety of phenolic compound(s), we have found that methylophiopogonanone A (MOA) can be readily O-glucuronidated by all tested human UGTs, including the typical N-glucuronidating enzymes UGT1A4 and UGT2B10. MOA-O-glucuronidation yielded a single mono-O-glucuronide that was biosynthesized and purified for structural characterization and for constructing an LC-UV based MOA-O-glucuronidation activity assay, which was then used for investigating MOA-O-glucuronidation kinetics in recombinant human UGTs. The derived Km values were crucial for selecting the most suitable assay conditions for assessing inhibitory potentials and specificity of test compound(s). Furthermore, the inhibitory effects and specificities of four known UGT inhibitors were reinvestigated by using MOA as the substrate for all tested UGTs. Collectively, MOA is a broad-spectrum substrate for the human UGTs, which offers a new and practical tool for assessing inhibitory effects and specificities of UGT inhibitors.

Abstract
Introduction: Nilotinib is a second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting BCR/ABL, which is used for the first-line treatment of newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients and the second-line treatment of most CML patients who are resistant or intolerant to prior therapy that includes imatinib. In addition to common adverse reactions, long-term use of nilotinib shows some toxicities that are different from those of occurring during other BCR/ABL TKI treatments, such as cardiovascular toxicity. It is life-threatening, which would affect not only the choice of initial treatment of CML patients but also the safety of long-term medication.Areas covered: Through searching literature and reports from PubMed and clinical trials, here we review a profile of the adverse effects induced by nilotinib. We also discuss the potential molecular toxicological mechanisms and clinical management, which may provide strategies to prevent or intervene the toxicity associated with nilotinib.Expert opinion: Severe adverse effects associated with nilotinib limit its long-term clinical application. However, the exact mechanisms underlying these toxicities remain unclear. Future research should focus on the developing strategies to reduce the toxicities of nilotinib as well as to avoid similar toxicity in the development of new drugs.

Drug Metab Dispos 2020; 49:233-244. [PMID: 33376146 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.120.000236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
O-Dealkylation of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor lapatinib by cytochrome P450 3A enzymes is implicated in the development of lapatinib-induced hepatotoxicity. Conjugative metabolism of debenzylated lapatinib (M1) via glucuronidation and sulfation is thought to be a major detoxication pathway for lapatinib in preclinical species (rat and dog), limiting formation of the quinoneimine reactive metabolite. Glucuronidation of M1 by human recombinant UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) has been reported in vitro; however, the relative UGT enzyme contributions are unknown, and the interspecies differences in the conjugation versus bioactivation pathways of M1 have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, reaction phenotyping experiments using human recombinant UGT enzymes and enzyme-selective chemical inhibitors demonstrated that UGT1A1 was the major hepatic UGT enzyme involved in lapatinib M1 glucuronidation. Formation of the M1-glucuronide by human liver microsomes from UGT1A1-genotyped donors was significantly correlated with UGT1A1 activity as measured by 17β-estradiol 3-glucuronidation (R 2 = 0.90). Interspecies differences were found in the biotransformation of M1 in human, rat, and dog liver microsomal and 9000g supernatant (S9) fractions via glucuronidation, sulfation, aldehyde oxidase-mediated oxidation, and bioactivation to the quinoneimine trapped as a glutathione (GSH) conjugate. Moreover, we demonstrated the sequential metabolism of lapatinib in primary human hepatocytes to the M1-glucuronide, M1-sulfate, and quinoneimine-GSH conjugate. M1 glucuronidation was highly correlated with the rates of M1 formation, suggesting that O-dealkylation may be the rate-limiting step in lapatinib biotransformation. Interindividual variability in the formation and clearance pathways of lapatinib M1 likely influences the hepatic exposure to reactive metabolites and may affect the risk for hepatotoxicity. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: We used an integrated approach to examine the interindividual and interspecies differences in detoxication versus bioactivation pathways of lapatinib, which is associated with idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity. In addition to cytochrome P450 (P450)-mediated bioactivation, we report that multiple non-P450 pathways are involved in the biotransformation of the primary phenolic metabolite of lapatinib in vitro, including glucuronidation, sulfation, and aldehyde oxidase mediated oxidation. UGT1A1 was identified as the major hepatic enzyme involved in debenzylated lapatinib glucuronidation, which may limit hepatic exposure to the potentially toxic quinoneimine.

Abstract
Background and Objective Sorafenib is an oral, multikinase inhibitor with established single-agent activity in several tumor types. Sorafenib was moderately transported by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and more efficiently by breast cancer resistance protein. The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in P-gp regulation in the brain microvasculature. Paracetamol is a CAR activator. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of paracetamol on the brain uptake of sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide. Methods The rats were assigned to two groups—rats receiving oral paracetamol 100 mg/kg and sorafenib 100 mg/kg (n = 42, ISR+PA) and rats receiving oral vehicle and sorafenib 100 mg/kg (n = 42, IISR). The sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide concentrations in blood plasma and brain tissue were determined by a high-performance liquid chromatography method with ultraviolet detection. Brain-to-plasma partition coefficient (Kp) was calculated as a ratio of the area under the curve from zero to 24 h (AUC) in the brain and plasma. A drug targeting index (DTI) was estimated as the group ISR+PAKp to group IISRKp ratio. Results Pharmacokinetic analysis revealed increased brain exposure to sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide after co-administration of paracetamol. The brain maximum concentration (Cmax) and the AUC of the parent drug in the ISR+PA group compared with the IISR group were greater by 49.5 and 77.8%, respectively, and the same parameters for the metabolite were higher by 51.4 and 50.9%. However, the Kp values of sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide did not differ significantly between the two animal groups and the DTI values were close to 1. Conclusion Paracetamol increases exposure to sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide in the brain, likely due to increased exposure in plasma.

Abstract
Enzymes of the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) superfamily contribute to the elimination of drugs from almost all therapeutic classes. Awareness of the importance of glucuronidation as a drug clearance mechanism along with increased knowledge of the enzymology of drug and chemical metabolism has stimulated interest in the development and application of approaches for the characterisation of human drug glucuronidation in vitro, in particular reaction phenotyping (the fractional contribution of the individual UGT enzymes responsible for the glucuronidation of a given drug), assessment of metabolic stability, and UGT enzyme inhibition by drugs and other xenobiotics. In turn, this has permitted the implementation of in vitro - in vivo extrapolation approaches for the prediction of drug metabolic clearance, intestinal availability, and drug-drug interaction liability, all of which are of considerable importance in pre-clinical drug development. Indeed, regulatory agencies (FDA and EMA) require UGT reaction phenotyping for new chemical entities if glucuronidation accounts for ≥25% of total metabolism. In vitro studies are most commonly performed with recombinant UGT enzymes and human liver microsomes (HLM) as the enzyme sources. Despite the widespread use of in vitro approaches for the characterisation of drug and chemical glucuronidation by HLM and recombinant enzymes, evidence-based guidelines relating to experimental approaches are lacking. Here we present evidence-based strategies for the characterisation of drug and chemical glucuronidation in vitro, and for UGT reaction phenotyping. We anticipate that the strategies will inform practice, encourage development of standardised experimental procedures where feasible, and guide ongoing research in the field.

Abstract
Bilirubin, the end product of heme catabolism, is produced continuously in the body and may reach toxic levels if accumulates in the serum and tissues; therefore, a highly efficient mechanism evolved for its disposition. Normally, unconjugated bilirubin enters hepatocytes through the uptake transporters organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 and 1B3, undergoes glucuronidation by the Phase II enzyme UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), and conjugated forms are excreted into the bile by the canalicular export pump multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2). Any remaining conjugated bilirubin is transported back to the blood by MRP3 and passed on for uptake and excretion by downstream hepatocytes or the kidney. The bile salt export pump BSEP as the main motor of bile flow is indirectly involved in bilirubin disposition. Genetic mutations and xenobiotics that interfere with this machinery may impede bilirubin disposition and cause hyperbilirubinemia. Several pharmaceutical compounds are known to cause hyperbilirubinemia via inhibition of OATP1Bs, UGT1A1, or BSEP. Herein we briefly review the in vitro prediction methods that serve to identify drugs with a potential to induce hyperbilirubinemia. In vitro assays can be deployed early in drug development and may help to minimize late-stage attrition. Based on current evidence, drugs that behave as mono- or multispecific inhibitors of OATP1B1, UGT1A1, and BSEP in vitro are at risk of causing clinically significant hyperbilirubinemia. By integrating inhibition data from in vitro assays, drug serum concentrations, and clinical reports of hyperbilirubinemia, predictor cut-off values have been established and are provisionally suggested in this review. Further validation of in vitro readouts to clinical outcomes is expected to enhance the predictive power of these assays.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the best example of a targeted therapy in solid tumors. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) deeply improved the prognosis of this tumor. However, a degree of inter-patient variability is still reported in response rates and pharmacogenetics may play an important role in the final clinical outcome. AREAS COVERED In this review, the authors provide an updated overview of the pharmacogenetic literature analyzing the role of polymorphisms in both GIST treatment efficacy and toxicity. EXPERT OPINION Besides the primary role of somatic DNA in dictating the clinical response to TKIs, several polymorphisms influencing their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics have been identified as being potentially involved. In the last 10 years, many potential biomarkers have been proposed to predict clinical response and toxicity after TKI administration. However, the evidence is still too limited to promote a clinical translation. To date, the somatic mutational status represents the main player in clinical response to TKIs in GIST treatment; however, pharmacogenetics could still explain the degree of inter-patient variability observed in GIST patients. A combination of different theoretical approaches, experimental model systems, and statistical methods is clearly needed, in order to translate pharmacogenetics to clinical practice in the near future.

Abstract
Purpose Sorafenib is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) used for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and radioactive iodine resistant thyroid carcinoma. Neoplastic diseases are the cause of pain, which may occur regardless of the stage of the disease. Paracetamol is a non-opioid analgesic used alone or in combination with opioids for the treatment of cancer pain. Numerous studies have pointed out changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters of TKIs when co-administered with paracetamol. The aim of the study was to assess drug–drug interactions (DDIs) between sorafenib and paracetamol. Methods Rats were divided into three groups, each consisting of eight animals. The first group received sorafenib (IIS), the second group received sorafenib + paracetamol (IS+PA), whereas the third group received only paracetamol (IIIPA). A single dose of sorafenib (100 mg/kg b.w.) and paracetamol (100 mg/kg b.w.) was administered orally. The plasma concentrations of sorafenib and its metabolite–N-oxide as well as paracetamol and its glucuronide and sulphate metabolites were measured using validated high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with ultraviolet detection. Results The co-administration of sorafenib and paracetamol increased the maximum concentration (Cmax) of paracetamol by 33% (p = 0.0372). In the IS+ PA group the Cmax of paracetamol glucuronide was reduced by 48% (p = < 0.0001), whereas the Cmax of paracetamol sulphate was higher by 153% (p = 0.0012) than in the IIIPA group. Paracetamol increased sorafenib and sorafenib N-oxide Cmax by 60% (p = 0.0068) and 83% (p = 0.0023), respectively. Conclusions A greater knowledge of DDI between sorafenib and paracetamol may help adjust dose properly and avoid toxicity effects in individual patients.

Abstract
Anti-angiogenic treatment is an important option that has changed the therapeutic landscape in various tumors, particularly in patients affected by renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Agents that block signaling pathways governing tumor angiogenesis have raised high expectations among clinicians. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR-TKIs) comprise a heterogeneous class of drugs with distinct pharmacological profiles, including potency, selectivity, pharmacokinetics and drug-drug interactions. Among them, tivozanib is one of the last TKIs introduced in the clinical practice; this drug selectively targets VEGFRs, it is characterized by a favorable pharmacokinetics and safety profile and has been approved as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic RCC (mRCC). In this article, we describe the clinical pharmacology of selected VEGFR-TKIs used for the treatment of mRCC, highlighting the relevant differences; moreover we aim to define the main pharmacologic characteristics of these drug.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are targeted anticancer drugs that have been successfully developed over the past 2 decades. To date, many of them (around 70%) require warnings for liver injury and five of them, including pazopanib and sunitinib, have Black Box Warning (BBW) labels. Although TKI-induced hepatotoxicity is the first cause of drug failures in clinical trials, BBW labels, and market withdrawals, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. However, the recent discovery of new reactive metabolites (RM) with aldehyde structures during pazopanib and sunitinib metabolism offers new perspectives for investigating their involvement in the toxicity of these two TKI. These hard electrophiles have a high reactivity potential toward proteins and are thought to be responsible for cytochrome P450 inactivation, drug-drug interactions (DDI), and liver toxicity. We report here, for the first time, the presence of these aldehyde RM in human plasma samples obtained during drug monitoring. Docking experiments in the CYP3A4 active site were performed and showed that pazopanib and sunitinib fitting in the catalytic site are in accordance with their regioselective oxidation to aldehydes. They also suggested that aldehyde RM may react with lysine and arginine residues. Based on these results, we studied the reactivity of the aldehyde RM toward lysine and arginine residues as potential targets on the protein framework to better understand how these RM could be involved in liver toxicity and drug-drug interactions. Adduct formation with different hepatic and plasma proteins was investigated by LC-MS/MS, and adducts between pazopanib or sunitinib aldehyde derivatives and lysine residues on both CYP3A4 and plasma proteins were indeed shown for the first time.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for the majority of primary liver cancers. To date, most patients with HCC are diagnosed at an advanced tumor stage, excluding them from potentially curative therapies (i.e., resection, liver transplantation, percutaneous ablation). Treatments with palliative intent include chemoembolization and systemic therapy. Among systemic treatments, the small-molecule multikinase inhibitor sorafenib has been the only systemic treatment available for advanced HCC over 10 years. More recently, other small-molecule multikinase inhibitors (e.g., regorafenib, lenvatinib, cabozantinib) have been approved for HCC treatment. The promising immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., nivolumab, pembrolizumab) are still under investigation in Europe while in the US nivolumab has already been approved by FDA in sorafenib refractory or resistant patients. Other molecules, such as the selective CDK4/6inhibitors (e.g., palbociclib, ribociclib), are in earlier stages of clinical development, and the c-MET inhibitor tivantinib did not show positive results in a phase III study. However, even if the introduction of targeted agents has led to great advances in patient response and survival with an acceptable toxicity profile, a remarkable inter-individual heterogeneity in therapy outcome persists and constitutes a significant problem in disease management. Thus, the identification of biomarkers that predict which patients will benefit from a specific intervention could significantly affect decision-making and therapy planning. Germ-line variants have been suggested to play an important role in determining outcomes of HCC systemic therapy in terms of both toxicity and treatment efficacy. Particularly, a number of studies have focused on the role of genetic polymorphisms impacting the drug metabolic pathway and membrane translocation as well as the drug mechanism of action as predictive/prognostic markers of HCC treatment. The aim of this review is to summarize and critically discuss the pharmacogenetic literature evidences, with particular attention to sorafenib and regorafenib, which have been used longer than the others in HCC treatment.
