Hartauer M, Murphy WA, Brouwer KLR, Southall R, Neuhoff S. Hepatic OATP1B zonal distribution: Implications for rifampicin-mediated drug-drug interactions explored within a PBPK framework. CPT Pharmacometrics Syst Pharmacol 2024. [PMID: 38898552 DOI: 10.1002/psp4.13188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
OATP1B facilitates the uptake of xenobiotics into hepatocytes and is a prominent target for drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Reduced systemic exposure of OATP1B substrates has been reported following multiple-dose rifampicin; one explanation for this observation is OATP1B induction. Non-uniform hepatic distribution of OATP1B may impact local rifampicin tissue concentrations and rifampicin-mediated protein induction, which may affect the accuracy of transporter- and/or metabolizing enzyme-mediated DDI predictions. We incorporated quantitative zonal OATP1B distribution data from immunofluorescence imaging into a PBPK modeling framework to explore rifampicin interactions with OATP1B and CYP substrates. PBPK models were developed for rifampicin, two OATP1B substrates, pravastatin and repaglinide (also metabolized by CYP2C8/CYP3A4), and the CYP3A probe, midazolam. Simulated hepatic uptake of pravastatin and repaglinide increased from the periportal to the pericentral region (approximately 2.1-fold), consistent with OATP1B distribution data. Simulated rifampicin unbound intracellular concentrations increased in the pericentral region (1.64-fold) compared to simulations with uniformly distributed OATP1B. The absolute average fold error of the rifampicin PBPK model for predicting substrate maximal concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) ratios was 1.41 and 1.54, respectively (nine studies). In conclusion, hepatic OATP1B distribution has a considerable impact on simulated zonal substrate uptake clearance values and simulated intracellular perpetrator concentrations, which regulate transporter and metabolic DDIs. Additionally, accounting for rifampicin-mediated OATP1B induction in parallel with inhibition improved model predictions. This study provides novel insight into the effect of hepatic OATP1B distribution on site-specific DDI predictions and the impact of accounting for zonal transporter distributions within PBPK models.

Abstract
Daprodustat is the first oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor approved recently for the treatment of anemia caused by chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults receiving dialysis. We evaluated the role of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B-mediated hepatic uptake transport in the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of daprodustat using in vitro and in vivo studies, and physiologically-based PK (PBPK) modeling of its drug-drug interactions (DDIs) with inhibitor drugs. In vitro, daprodustat showed specific transport by OATP1B1/1B3 in the transfected cell systems and primary human and monkey hepatocytes. A single-dose oral rifampin (OATP1B inhibitor) reduced daprodustat intravenous clearance by a notable 9.9 ± 1.2-fold (P < 0.05) in cynomolgus monkeys. Correspondingly, volume of distribution at steady-state was also reduced by 5.0 ± 1.1-fold, whereas the half-life change was minimal (1.5-fold), corroborating daprodustat hepatic uptake inhibition by rifampin. A PBPK model accounting for OATP1B-CYP2C8 interplay was developed, which well described daprodustat PK and DDIs with gemfibrozil (CYP2C8 and OATP1B inhibitor) and trimethoprim (weak CYP2C8 inhibitor) within 25% error of the observed data in healthy subjects. About 18-fold increase in daprodustat area under the curve (AUC) following gemfibrozil treatment was found to be associated with strong CYP2C8 inhibition and moderate OATP1B inhibition. Moreover, PK modulation in hepatic dysfunction and subjects with CKD, in comparison to healthy control, was well-captured by the model. CYP2C8 and/or OATP1B inhibitor drugs (e.g., gemfibrozil, clopidogrel, rifampin, and cyclosporine) were predicted to perpetrate moderate-to-strong DDIs in healthy subjects, as well as, in target CKD population. Daprodustat can be used as a sensitive CYP2C8 index substrate in the absence of OATP1B modulation.

Abstract
Gadoxetate, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent, is a substrate of organic-anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2. Six drugs, with varying degrees of transporter inhibition, were used to assess gadoxetate dynamic contrast enhanced MRI biomarkers for transporter inhibition in rats. Prospective prediction of changes in gadoxetate systemic and liver AUC (AUCR), resulting from transporter modulation, were performed by physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling. A tracer-kinetic model was used to estimate rate constants for hepatic uptake (khe), and biliary excretion (kbh). The observed median fold-decreases in gadoxetate liver AUC were 3.8- and 1.5-fold for ciclosporin and rifampicin, respectively. Ketoconazole unexpectedly decreased systemic and liver gadoxetate AUCs; the remaining drugs investigated (asunaprevir, bosentan, and pioglitazone) caused marginal changes. Ciclosporin decreased gadoxetate khe and kbh by 3.78 and 0.09 mL/min/mL, while decreases for rifampicin were 7.20 and 0.07 mL/min/mL, respectively. The relative decrease in khe (e.g., 96% for ciclosporin) was similar to PBPK-predicted inhibition of uptake (97-98%). PBPK modelling correctly predicted changes in gadoxetate systemic AUCR, whereas underprediction of decreases in liver AUCs was evident. The current study illustrates the modelling framework and integration of liver imaging data, PBPK, and tracer-kinetic models for prospective quantification of hepatic transporter-mediated DDI in humans.

Utilization of Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Modeling in Pharmacoepidemiological Studies: A Systematic Review on Antiarrhythmic and Glucose-Lowering Medicines. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:908538. [PMID: 35795566 PMCID: PMC9251370 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.908538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: In human pharmacology, there are two important scientific branches: clinical pharmacology and pharmacoepidemiology. Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modeling is important in preclinical studies and randomized control trials. However, it is rarely used in pharmacoepidemiological studies on the effectiveness and medication safety where the target population is heterogeneous and followed for longer periods. The objective of this literature review was to investigate how far PK/PD modeling is utilized in observational studies on glucose-lowering and antiarrhythmic drugs. Method: A systematic literature search of MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science was conducted from January 2010 to 21 February 2020. To calculate the utilization of PK/PD modeling in observational studies, we followed two search strategies. In the first strategy, we screened a 1% random set from 95,672 studies on glucose-lowering and antiarrhythmic drugs on inclusion criteria. In the second strategy, we evaluated the percentage of studies in which PK/PD modeling techniques were utilized. Subsequently, we divided the total number of included studies in the second search strategy by the total number of eligible studies in the first search strategy. Results: The comprehensive search of databases and the manual search of included references yielded a total of 29 studies included in the qualitative synthesis of our systematic review. Nearly all 29 studies had utilized a PK model, whereas only two studies developed a PD model to evaluate the effectiveness of medications. In total, 16 out of 29 studies (55.1%) used a PK/PD model in the observational setting to study effect modification. The utilization of PK/PD modeling in observational studies was calculated as 0.42%. Conclusion: PK/PD modeling techniques were substantially underutilized in observational studies of antiarrhythmic and glucose-lowering drugs during the past decade.

Abstract
Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an endogenous biomarker of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B transporter (OATP1B). CPI plasma baseline was reported to increase with severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Further, ratio of CPI area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUCR) in the presence/absence of OATP1B inhibitor rifampin was higher in patients with CKD compared with healthy participants, in contrast to pitavastatin (a clinical OATP1B probe). This study investigated mechanism(s) contributing to altered CPI baseline in patients with CKD by extending a previously developed physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to this patient population. CKD-related covariates were evaluated in a stepwise manner on CPI fraction unbound in plasma (fu,p ), OATP1B-mediated hepatic uptake clearance (CLactive ), renal clearance (CLR ), and endogenous synthesis (ksyn ). The CPI model successfully recovered increased baseline and rifampin-mediated AUCR in patients with CKD by accounting for the following disease-related changes: 13% increase in fu,p , 29% and 39% decrease in CLactive in mild and moderate to severe CKD, respectively, decrease in CLR proportional to decline in glomerular filtration rate, and 27% decrease in ksyn in severe CKD. Almost complete decline in CPI renal elimination in severe CKD increased its fraction transported by OATP1B, rationalizing differences in the CPI-rifampin interaction observed between healthy participants and patients with CKD. In conclusion, mechanistic modeling performed here supports CKD-related decrease in OATP1B function to inform prospective PBPK modeling of OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interaction in these patients. Monitoring of CPI allows detection of CKD-drug interaction risk for OATP1B drugs with combined hepatic and renal elimination which may be underestimated by extrapolating the interaction risk based on pitavastatin data in healthy participants.

Abstract
Microphysiological systems (MPS) are complex and more physiologically realistic cellular in vitro tools that aim to provide more relevant human in vitro data for quantitative prediction of clinical pharmacokinetics while also reducing the need for animal testing. The PhysioMimix liver-on-a-chip integrates medium flow with hepatocyte culture and has the potential to be adopted for in vitro studies investigating the hepatic disposition characteristics of drug candidates. The current study focusses on liver-on-a-chip system exploration for multiple drug metabolism applications. Characterization of cytochrome P450 (CYP), UDP-glucuronosyl transferase (UGT) and aldehyde oxidase (AO) activities was performed using 15 drugs and in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) was assessed for 12 of them. Next, the utility of the liver-on-a-chip for estimation of the fraction metabolized (fm) via specific biotransformation pathways of quinidine and diclofenac was established. Finally, the metabolite identification opportunities were also explored using efavirenz as an example drug with complex primary and secondary metabolism involving a combination of CYP, UGT and sulfotransferase enzymes. A key aspect of these investigations was the application of mathematical modelling for improved parameter calculation. Such approaches will be required for quantitative assessment of metabolism and/or transporter processes in systems where medium flow and system compartments result in non-homogeneous drug concentrations. In particular, modelling was used to explore the effect of evaporation from the medium and it was found that the intrinsic clearance (CLint) might be underestimated by up to 40% for low clearance compounds if evaporation is not accounted for. Modelling of liver-on-a-chip in vitro data also enhanced the approach to fm estimation allowing objective assessment of metabolism models of different complexity. The resultant diclofenac fm,UGT of 0.64 was highly comparable with values reported previously in the literature. The current study demonstrates the integration of mathematical modelling with experimental liver-on-a-chip studies and illustrates how this approach supports generation of high quality of data from complex in vitro cellular systems.

Abstract
![]()
Physiologically based
pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models are increasingly
used in drug development to simulate changes in both systemic and
tissue exposures that arise as a result of changes in enzyme and/or
transporter activity. Verification of these model-based simulations
of tissue exposure is challenging in the case of transporter-mediated
drug–drug interactions (tDDI), in particular as these may lead
to differential effects on substrate exposure in plasma and tissues/organs
of interest. Gadoxetate, a promising magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
contrast agent, is a substrate of organic-anion-transporting polypeptide
1B1 (OATP1B1) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2).
In this study, we developed a gadoxetate PBPK model and explored the
use of liver-imaging data to achieve and refine in vitro–in
vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) of gadoxetate hepatic transporter kinetic
data. In addition, PBPK modeling was used to investigate gadoxetate
hepatic tDDI with rifampicin i.v. 10 mg/kg. In vivo dynamic contrast-enhanced
(DCE) MRI data of gadoxetate in rat blood, spleen, and liver were
used in this analysis. Gadoxetate in vitro uptake kinetic data were
generated in plated rat hepatocytes. Mean (%CV) in vitro hepatocyte
uptake unbound Michaelis–Menten constant (Km,u) of gadoxetate was 106 μM (17%) (n = 4 rats), and active saturable uptake accounted for 94% of total
uptake into hepatocytes. PBPK–IVIVE of these data (bottom-up
approach) captured reasonably systemic exposure, but underestimated
the in vivo gadoxetate DCE–MRI profiles and elimination from
the liver. Therefore, in vivo rat DCE–MRI liver data were subsequently
used to refine gadoxetate transporter kinetic parameters in the PBPK
model (top-down approach). Active uptake into the hepatocytes refined
by the liver-imaging data was one order of magnitude higher than the
one predicted by the IVIVE approach. Finally, the PBPK model was fitted
to the gadoxetate DCE–MRI data (blood, spleen, and liver) obtained
with and without coadministered rifampicin. Rifampicin was estimated
to inhibit active uptake transport of gadoxetate into the liver by
96%. The current analysis highlighted the importance of gadoxetate
liver data for PBPK model refinement, which was not feasible when
using the blood data alone, as is common in PBPK modeling applications.
The results of our study demonstrate the utility of organ-imaging
data in evaluating and refining PBPK transporter IVIVE to support
the subsequent model use for quantitative evaluation of hepatic tDDI.

Reduced physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model of dabigatran etexilate-dabigatran and its application for prediction of intestinal P-gp-mediated drug-drug interactions. Eur J Pharm Sci 2021; 165:105932. [PMID: 34260894 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.105932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dabigatran etexilate (DABE) has been suggested as a clinical probe for intestinal P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies and, as an alternative to digoxin. Clinical DDI data with various P-gp inhibitors demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibition of P-gp with DABE. The aims of this study were to develop a joint DABE (prodrug)-dabigatran reduced physiologically-based-pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model and to evaluate its ability to predict differences in P-gp DDI magnitude between a microdose and a therapeutic dose of DABE. METHODS A joint DABE-dabigatran PBPK model was developed with a mechanistic intestinal model accounting for the regional P-gp distribution in the gastrointestinal tract. Model input parameters were estimated using DABE and dabigatran pharmacokinetic (PK) clinical data obtained after administration of DABE alone or with a strong P-gp inhibitor, itraconazole, and over a wide range of DABE doses (from 375 µg to 400 mg). Subsequently, the model was used to predict extent of DDI with additional P-gp inhibitors and with different DABE doses. RESULTS The reduced DABE-dabigatran PBPK model successfully described plasma concentrations of both prodrug and metabolite following administration of DABE at different dose levels and when co-administered with itraconazole. The model was able to capture the dose dependency in P-gp mediated DDI. Predicted magnitude of itraconazole P-gp DDI was higher at the microdose (predicted vs. observed median fold-increase in AUC+inh/AUCcontrol (min-max) = 5.88 (4.29-7.93) vs. 6.92 (4.96-9.66) ) compared to the therapeutic dose (predicted median fold-increase in AUC+inh/AUCcontrol = 3.48 (2.37-4.84) ). In addition, the reduced DABE-dabigatran PBPK model predicted successfully the extent of DDI with verapamil and clarithromycin as P-gp inhibitors. Model-based simulations of dose staggering predicted the maximum inhibition of P-gp when DABE microdose was concomitantly administered with itraconazole solution; simulations also highlighted dosing intervals required to minimise the DDI risk depending on the DABE dose administered (microdose vs. therapeutic). CONCLUSIONS This study provides a modelling framework for the evaluation of P-gp inhibitory potential of new molecular entities using DABE as a clinical probe. Simulations of dose staggering and regional differences in the extent of intestinal P-gp inhibition for DABE microdose and therapeutic dose provide model-based guidance for design of prospective clinical P-gp DDI studies.

Izat N, Sahin S. Hepatic transporter-mediated pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions: Recent studies and regulatory recommendations. Biopharm Drug Dispos 2021; 42:45-77. [PMID: 33507532 DOI: 10.1002/bdd.2262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2020] [Revised: 12/16/2020] [Accepted: 01/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions are one of the major mechanisms in pharmacokinetic-based drug interactions and correspondingly affecting drugs' safety and efficacy. Regulatory bodies underlined the importance of the evaluation of transporter-mediated interactions as a part of the drug development process. The liver is responsible for the elimination of a wide range of endogenous and exogenous compounds via metabolism and biliary excretion. Therefore, hepatic uptake transporters, expressed on the sinusoidal membranes of hepatocytes, and efflux transporters mediating the transport from hepatocytes to the bile are determinant factors for pharmacokinetics of drugs, and hence, drug-drug interactions. In parallel with the growing research interest in this area, regulatory guidances have been updated with detailed assay models and criteria. According to well-established preclinical results, observed or expected hepatic transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions can be taken into account for clinical studies. In this paper, various methods including in vitro, in situ, in vivo, in silico approaches, and combinational concepts and several clinical studies on the assessment of transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions were reviewed. Informative and effective evaluation by preclinical tools together with the integration of pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation can reduce unexpected clinical outcomes and enhance the success rate in drug development.

Abstract
Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an endogenous biomarker of OATP1B activity and associated drug-drug interactions. In this study, a minimal physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model was developed to investigate the impact of OATP1B1 genotype (c.521T>C), ethnicity, and sex on CPI pharmacokinetics and interindividual variability in its baseline. The model implemented mechanistic descriptions of CPI hepatic transport between liver blood and liver tissue and renal excretion. Key model parameters (e.g., endogenous CPI synthesis rate, and CPI hepatic uptake clearance) were estimated by fitting the model simultaneously to three independent CPI clinical datasets (plasma and urine data) obtained from white (n = 16, men and women) and Asian-Indian (n = 26, all men) subjects, with c.521 variants (TT, TC, and CC). The optimized CPI model successfully described the observed data using c.521T>C genotype, ethnicity, and sex as covariates. CPI hepatic active was 79% lower in 521CC relative to the wild type and 42% lower in Asian-Indians relative to white subjects, whereas CPI synthesis was 23% higher in male relative to female subjects. Parameter sensitivity analysis showed marginal impact of the assumption of CPI synthesis site (blood or liver), resulting in comparable recovery of plasma and urine CPI data. Lower magnitude of CPI-drug interaction was simulated in 521CC subjects, suggesting the risk of underestimation of CPI-drug interaction without prior OATP1B1 genotyping. The CPI model incorporates key covariates contributing to interindividual variability in its baseline and highlights the utility of the CPI modeling to facilitate the design of prospective clinical studies to maximize the sensitivity of this biomarker.

In Vitro Evidence of Potential Interactions between CYP2C8 and Candesartan Acyl- β-D-glucuronide in the Liver. Drug Metab Dispos 2021; 49:289-297. [PMID: 33446524 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.120.000126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2020] [Accepted: 12/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that certain glucuronides function as potent inhibitors of CYP2C8. We previously reported the possibility of drug-drug interactions between candesartan cilexetil and paclitaxel. In this study, we evaluated the effects of candesartan N2-glucuronide and candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide on pathways associated with the elimination of paclitaxel, including those involving organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, OATP1B3, CYP2C8, and CYP3A4. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A10 and UGT2B7 were found to increase candesartan N2-glucuronide and candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide formation in a candesartan concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, the uptake of candesartan N2-glucuronide and candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide by cells stably expressing OATPs is a saturable process with K m of 5.11 and 12.1 μM for OATP1B1 and 28.8 and 15.7 μM for OATP1B3, respectively; both glucuronides exhibit moderate inhibition of OATP1B1/1B3. Moreover, the hydroxylation of paclitaxel was evaluated using recombinant CYP3A4 and CYP3A5. Results show that candesartan, candesartan N2-glucuronide, and candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide inhibit the CYP2C8-mediated metabolism of paclitaxel, with candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide exhibiting the strongest inhibition (IC50 is 18.9 µM for candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide, 150 µM for candesartan, and 166 µM for candesartan N2-glucuronide). However, time-dependent inhibition of CYP2C8 by candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide was not observed. Conversely, the IC50 values of all the compounds are comparable for CYP3A4. Taken together, these data suggest that candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide is actively transported by OATPs into hepatocytes, and drug-drug interactions may occur with coadministration of candesartan and CYP2C8 substrates, including paclitaxel, as a result of the inhibition of CYP2C8 function. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This study demonstrates that the acyl glucuronidation of candesartan to form candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide enhances CYP2C8 inhibition while exerting minimal effects on CYP3A4, organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, and OATP1B3. Thus, candesartan acyl-β-D-glucuronide might represent a potential mediator of drug-drug interactions between candesartan and CYP2C8 substrates, such as paclitaxel, in clinical settings. This work adds to the growing knowledge regarding the inhibitory effects of glucuronides on CYP2C8.

Abstract
Transporters are key to understanding how an individual will respond to a particular dose of a drug. Two patients with similar systemic concentrations may have quite different local concentrations of a drug at the required site. The transporter profile of any individual depends upon a variety of genetic and environmental factors, including genotype, age, and diet status. Robust models (virtual patients) are therefore required and these models are data hungry. Necessary data include quantitative transporter profiles at the relevant organ. Liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is currently the most powerful method available for obtaining this information. Challenges include sourcing the tissue, isolating the hydrophobic membrane-embedded transporter proteins, preparing the samples for MS (including proteolytic digestion), choosing appropriate quantification methodology, and optimizing the LC-MS/MS conditions. Great progress has been made with all of these, especially within the last few years, and is discussed here.

Abstract
Creatinine is the most common clinical biomarker of renal function. As a substrate for renal transporters, its secretion is susceptible to inhibition by drugs, resulting in transient increase in serum creatinine and false impression of damage to kidney. Novel physiologically based models for creatinine were developed here and (dis)qualified in a stepwise manner until consistency with clinical data. Data from a matrix of studies were integrated, including systems data (common to all models), proteomics-informed in vitro-in vivo extrapolation of all relevant transporter clearances, exogenous administration of creatinine (to estimate endogenous synthesis rate), and inhibition of different renal transporters (11 perpetrator drugs considered for qualification during creatinine model development and verification on independent data sets). The proteomics-informed bottom-up approach resulted in the underprediction of creatinine renal secretion. Subsequently, creatinine-trimethoprim clinical data were used to inform key model parameters in a reverse translation manner, highlighting best practices and challenges for middle-out optimization of mechanistic models.

Abstract
Objective Previous studies have suggested that variations in the ABCC8 gene may be closely associated with T2DM susceptibility and repaglinide response. However, these results have not been entirely consistent, and there are no related studies in a Chinese population, suggesting the need for further exploration. The current study investigated the associations of the ABCC8 rs1801261 polymorphism with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) susceptibility and repaglinide therapeutic efficacy in Chinese Han T2DM patients. Methods A total of 234 T2DM patients and 105 healthy subjects were genotyped for ABCC8 rs1801261 polymorphism by a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. A total of 70 patients with the same genotypes of CYP2C8*3 139Arg and OATP1B1 521TT were randomized to orally take 3 mg repaglinide per day (1 mg each time before meals) for 8 consecutive weeks. The pharmacodynamic parameters of repaglinide and biochemical indicators were then determined before and after repaglinide treatment. Results The frequency of ABCC8 rs1801261 allele was higher in T2DM patients than in the control subjects (22.6% vs.11.0%, p<0.01). After repaglinide treatment, T2DM patients carrying genotype CT showed a significantly attenuated efficacy on FPG (p<0.01) and HbA1c (p<0.01) compared with those with genotype CC. Conclusion These results suggested that the ABCC8 rs1801261 polymorphism might influence T2DM susceptibility and the therapeutic effect of repaglinide in Chinese Han T2DM patients. This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Register on May 14, 2013 (No. ChiCTR-CCC13003536).

Accounting for inter-correlation between enzyme abundance: a simulation study to assess implications on global sensitivity analysis within physiologically-based pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models often include several sets of correlated parameters, such as organ volumes and blood flows. Because of recent advances in proteomics, it has been demonstrated that correlations are also present between abundances of drug-metabolising enzymes in the liver. As the focus of population PBPK has shifted the emphasis from the average individual to theoretically conceivable extremes, reliable estimation of the extreme cases has become paramount. We performed a simulation study to assess the impact of the correlation between the abundances of two enzymes on the pharmacokinetics of drugs that are substrate of both, under assumptions of presence or lack of such correlations. We considered three semi-physiological models representing the cases of: (1) intravenously administered drugs metabolised by two enzymes expressed in the liver; (2) orally administered drugs metabolised by CYP3A4 expressed in the liver and gut wall; (3) intravenously administered drugs that are substrates of CYP3A4 and OATP1B1 in the liver. Finally, the impact of considering or ignoring correlation between enzymatic abundances on global sensitivity analysis (GSA) was investigated using variance based GSA on a reduced PBPK model for repaglinide, substrate of CYP3A4 and CYP2C8. Implementing such correlations can increase the confidence interval for population pharmacokinetic parameters (e.g., AUC, bioavailability) and impact the GSA results. Ignoring these correlations could lead to the generation of implausible parameters combinations and to an incorrect estimation of pharmacokinetic related parameters. Thus, known correlations should always be considered in building population PBPK models.

Abstract
This white paper examines recent progress, applications, and challenges in predicting unbound and total tissue and intra/subcellular drug concentrations using in vitro and preclinical models, imaging techniques, and physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling. Published examples, regulatory submissions, and case studies illustrate the application of different types of data in drug development to support modeling and decision making for compounds with transporter-mediated disposition, and likely disconnects between tissue and systemic drug exposure. The goals of this article are to illustrate current best practices and outline practical strategies for selecting appropriate in vitro and in vivo experimental methods to estimate or predict tissue and plasma concentrations, and to use these data in the application of PBPK modeling for human pharmacokinetic (PK), efficacy, and safety assessment in drug development.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) differentially affects the pharmacokinetics (PK) of nonrenally cleared drugs via certain pathways (e.g., cytochrome P450 (CYP)2D6); however, the effect on CYP2C8‐mediated clearance is not well understood because of overlapping substrate specificity with hepatic organic anion‐transporting polypeptides (OATPs). This study used physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling to delineate potential changes in CYP2C8 or OATP1B activity in patients with CKD. Drugs analyzed are predominantly substrates of CYP2C8 (rosiglitazone and pioglitazone), OATP1B (pitavastatin), or both (repaglinide). Following initial model verification, pharmacokinetics (PK) of these drugs were simulated in patients with severe CKD considering changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), plasma protein binding, and activity of either CYP2C8 and/or OATP1B in a stepwise manner. The PBPK analysis suggests that OATP1B activity could be decreased up to 60% in severe CKD, whereas changes to CYP2C8 are negligible. This improved understanding of CKD effect on clearance pathways could be important to inform the optimal use of nonrenally eliminated drugs in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Advances in genomic technologies have led to a wealth of information identifying genetic polymorphisms in membrane transporters, specifically how these polymorphisms affect drug disposition and response. This review describes the current perspective of the International Transporter Consortium (ITC) on clinically important polymorphisms in membrane transporters. ITC suggests that, in addition to previously recommended polymorphisms in ABCG2 (BCRP) and SLCO1B1 (OATP1B1), polymorphisms in the emerging transporter, SLC22A1 (OCT1), be considered during drug development. Collectively, polymorphisms in these transporters are important determinants of interindividual differences in the levels, toxicities, and response to many drugs.

Abstract
This study evaluated coproporphyrin I (CPI) as a selective endogenous biomarker of OATP1B‐mediated drug–drug interactions (DDIs) relative to clinical probe rosuvastatin using nonlinear mixed‐effect modeling. Plasma and urine CPI data in the presence/absence of rifampicin were modeled to describe CPI synthesis, elimination clearances, and obtain rifampicin in vivo OATP Ki. The biomarker showed stable interoccasion baseline concentrations and low interindividual variability (<25%) in subjects with wildtype SLCO1B1. Biliary excretion was the dominant CPI elimination route (maximal >85%). Estimated rifampicin in vivo unbound OATP Ki (0.13 μM) using CPI data was 2‐fold lower relative to rosuvastatin. Model‐based simulations and power calculations confirmed sensitivity of CPI to identify moderate and weak OATP1B inhibitors in an adequately powered clinical study. Current analysis provides the most detailed evaluation of CPI as an endogenous OATP1B biomarker to support optimal DDI study design; further pharmacogenomic and DDI data with a panel of inhibitors are required.

Abstract
Our recent studies have shown that chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of cytochrome P450 (CYP)2D6‐metabolized drugs, whereas effects were less evident on CYP3A4/5. Therefore, the effect of CKD on the disposition of CYP1A2‐metabolized, CYP2C8‐metabolized, CYP2C9‐metabolized, CYP2C19‐metabolized, and organic anion‐transporting polypeptide (OATP)‐transported drugs was investigated. We identified dedicated CKD studies with 6, 5, 6, 4, and 12 “model” substrates for CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and OATP, respectively. Our analyses suggest that clearance of OATP substrates decreases as kidney function declines. Similar trends were seen for CYP2C8; but overlap between some CYP2C8 and OATP substrates highlights that their interplay needs further investigation. In contrast, the effect of CKD on CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 was variable and modest compared to CYP2C8 and OATP. This improved understanding of elimination‐pathway‐dependency in CKD is important to inform the need and conduct of PK studies in these patients for nonrenally eliminated drugs.

Abstract
Precision medicine approach has a potential to ensure optimum efficacy and safety of drugs at individual patient level. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) models could play a significant role in precision medicine by predicting interindividual variability in drug disposition and response. In order to develop robust PBPK/PD models, it is imperative that the critical physiological parameters affecting drug disposition and response and their variability are precisely characterized. Currently used PBPK/PD modeling software, for example, Simcyp and Gastroplus, encompass information such as organ volumes, blood flows to organs, body fat composition, glomerular filtration rate, etc. However, the information on the interindividual variability of the majority of the proteins associated with PK and PD, for example, drug metabolizing enzymes, transporters, and receptors, are not fully incorporated into these PBPK modeling platforms. Such information is significant because the population factors such as age, genotype, disease, and gender can affect abundance or activity of these proteins. To fill this critical knowledge gap, mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics has emerged as an important technique to characterize interindividual variability in the protein abundance of drug metabolizing enzymes, transporters, and receptors. Integration of these quantitative proteomics data into in silico PBPK/PD modeling tools will be crucial toward precision medicine.

Abstract
Repaglinide is an insulin secretagogue that often exhibits considerable interindividual variability in therapeutic efficacy. The current study was designed to investigate the impact of KCNQ1 genetic polymorphism on the efficacy of repaglinide and furthermore to identify the potential mechanism of action in patients with type 2 diabetes. A total of 305 patients and 200 healthy subjects were genotyped for the KCNQ1 rs2237892 polymorphism, and 82 patients with T2DM were randomized for the oral administration of repaglinide for 8 weeks. HepG2 cells were incubated with repaglinide in the absence or presence of a KCNQ1 inhibitor or the pcDNA3.1-hKCNQ1 plasmid, after which the levels of Akt, IRS-2 and PI(3)K were determined. Our data showed that repaglinide significantly decreased HOMA-IR in patients with T2DM. Furthermore, the level of HOMA-IR was significantly reduced in those patients with CT or TT genotypes than CC homozygotes. The KCNQ1 inhibitor enhanced repaglinide efficacy on insulin resistance, with IRS-2/PI(3)K/Akt signaling being up-regulated markedly. As in our clinical experiment, these data strongly suggest that KCNQ1 genetic polymorphism influences repaglinide response due to the pivotal role of KCNQ1 in regulating insulin resistance through the IRS-2/PI(3)K/Akt signaling pathway. This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Register on May 14, 2013. (No. ChiCTR-CCC13003536).

Abstract
It is envisaged that application of mechanistic models will improve prediction of changes in renal disposition due to drug-drug interactions, genetic polymorphism in enzymes and transporters and/or renal impairment. However, developing and validating mechanistic kidney models is challenging due to the number of processes that may occur (filtration, secretion, reabsorption and metabolism) in this complex organ. Prediction of human renal drug disposition from preclinical species may be hampered by species differences in the expression and activity of drug metabolising enzymes and transporters. A proposed solution is bottom-up prediction of pharmacokinetic parameters based on in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE), mediated by recent advances in in vitro experimental techniques and application of relevant scaling factors. This review is a follow-up to the Part I of the report from the 2015 AAPS Annual Meeting and Exhibition (Orlando, FL; 25th-29th October 2015) which focuses on IVIVE and mechanistic prediction of renal drug disposition. It describes the various mechanistic kidney models that may be used to investigate renal drug disposition. Particular attention is given to efforts that have attempted to incorporate elements of IVIVE. In addition, the use of mechanistic models in prediction of renal drug-drug interactions and potential for application in determining suitable adjustment of dose in kidney disease are discussed. The need for suitable clinical pharmacokinetics data for the purposes of delineating mechanistic aspects of kidney models in various scenarios is highlighted.

Abstract
Accurate prediction of drug target activity and rational dosing regimen design require knowledge of drug concentrations at the target. It is important to understand the impact of processes such as membrane permeability, partitioning, and active transport on intracellular drug concentrations. The present study aimed to predict intracellular unbound atorvastatin concentrations and characterize the effect of enzyme-transporter interplay on these concentrations. Single-pass liver perfusion studies were conducted in rats using atorvastatin (ATV, 1 µM) alone at 4°C and at 37°C in presence of rifampin (RIF, 20 µM) and 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT, 1 mM), separately and in combination. The unbound intracellular ATV concentration was predicted with a five-compartment explicit membrane model using the parameterized diffusional influx clearance, active basolateral uptake clearance, and metabolic clearance. Chemical inhibition of uptake and metabolism at 37°C proved to be better controls relative to studies at 4°C. The predicted unbound intracellular concentration at the end of the 50-minute perfusion in the +ABT , +ABT+RIF, and the ATV-only groups was 6.5 µM, 0.58 µM, and 5.14 µM, respectively. The predicted total liver concentrations and amount recovered in bile were within 0.94-1.3 fold of the observed value in all groups. The fold difference in total liver concentration did not always extrapolate to the fold difference in predicted unbound concentration across groups. Together, these results support the use of compartmental modeling to predict intracellular concentrations in dynamic organ-based systems. These predictions can provide insight into the role of uptake transporters and metabolizing enzymes in determining drug tissue concentrations.

Abstract
Modeling and simulation of drug disposition has emerged as an important tool in drug development, clinical study design and regulatory review, and the number of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling related publications and regulatory submissions have risen dramatically in recent years. However, the extent of use of PBPK modeling by researchers, and the public availability of models has not been systematically evaluated. This review evaluates PBPK-related publications to 1) identify the common applications of PBPK modeling; 2) determine ways in which models are developed; 3) establish how model quality is assessed; and 4) provide a list of publically available PBPK models for sensitive P450 and transporter substrates as well as selective inhibitors and inducers. PubMed searches were conducted using the terms "PBPK" and "physiologically based pharmacokinetic model" to collect published models. Only papers on PBPK modeling of pharmaceutical agents in humans published in English between 2008 and May 2015 were reviewed. A total of 366 PBPK-related articles met the search criteria, with the number of articles published per year rising steadily. Published models were most commonly used for drug-drug interaction predictions (28%), followed by interindividual variability and general clinical pharmacokinetic predictions (23%), formulation or absorption modeling (12%), and predicting age-related changes in pharmacokinetics and disposition (10%). In total, 106 models of sensitive substrates, inhibitors, and inducers were identified. An in-depth analysis of the model development and verification revealed a lack of consistency in model development and quality assessment practices, demonstrating a need for development of best-practice guidelines.

Abstract
The utilisation of physiologically-based pharmacokinetic models for the analysis of population data is an approach with progressively increasing impact. However, as we move from empirical to complex mechanistic model structures, incorporation of stochastic variability in model parameters can be challenging due to the physiological constraints that may arise. Here, we investigated the most common types of constraints faced in mechanistic pharmacokinetic modelling and explored techniques for handling them during a population data analysis. An efficient way to impose stochastic variability on the parameters of interest without neglecting the underlying physiological constraints is through the assumption that they follow a distribution with support and properties matching the underlying physiology. It was found that two distributions that arise through transformations of the normal, the logit-normal generalisation and the logistic-normal, are excellent for such an application as not only they can satisfy the physiological constraints but also offer high flexibility during characterisation of the parameters' distribution. The statistical properties and practical advantages/disadvantages of these distributions for such an application were clearly displayed in the context of different modelling examples. Finally, a simulation study clearly illustrated the practical gains of the utilisation of the described techniques, as omission of population variability in physiological systems parameters leads to a biased/misplaced stochastic model with mechanistically incorrect variance structure. The current methodological work aims to facilitate the use of mechanistic/physiologically-based models for the analysis of population pharmacokinetic clinical data.

Abstract
Organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 transporters play an important role in hepatic drug disposition. Recently, an increasing number of studies have reported proteomic expression data for OATP transporters. However, systematic analysis and understanding of the actual differences in OATP expression between liver tissue and commonly used cellular systems is lacking. In the current study, meta-analysis was performed to assess the protein expression of OATP transporters reported in hepatocytes relative to liver tissue and to identify any potential correlations in transporter expression levels in the same individual. OATP1B1 was identified as the most abundant uptake transporter at 5.9 ± 8.3, 5.8 ± 3.3, and 4.2 ± 1.7 fmol/μg protein in liver tissue, sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes (SCHH), and cryopreserved suspended hepatocytes, respectively. The rank order in average expression in liver tissue and cellular systems was OATP1B1 > OATP1B3 ≈ OATP2B1. Abundance levels of the OATP transporters investigated were not significantly different between liver and cellular systems, with the exception of OATP2B1 expression in SCHH relative to liver tissue. Analysis of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 liver expression data in the same individuals (n = 86) identified weak (OATP1B1-OATP2B1) to moderately (OATP1B3-OATP2B1) significant correlations. A significant weak correlation was noted between OATP1B1 abundance and age of human donors, whereas expression of the OATPs investigated was independent of sex. Implications of the current analysis on the in vitro-in vivo extrapolation of transporter-mediated drug disposition using physiologically based pharmacokinetic models are discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a population physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for simvastatin (SV) and its active metabolite, simvastatin acid (SVA), that allows extrapolation and prediction of their concentration profiles in liver (efficacy) and muscle (toxicity). METHODS SV/SVA plasma concentrations (34 healthy volunteers) were simultaneously analysed with NONMEM 7.2. The implemented mechanistic model has a complex compartmental structure allowing inter-conversion between SV and SVA in different tissues. Prior information for model parameters was extracted from different sources to construct appropriate prior distributions that support parameter estimation. The model was employed to provide predictions regarding the effects of a range of clinically important conditions on the SV and SVA disposition. RESULTS The developed model offered a very good description of the available plasma SV/SVA data. It was also able to describe previously observed effects of an OATP1B1 polymorphism (c.521 T > C) and a range of drug-drug interactions (CYP inhibition) on SV/SVA plasma concentrations. The predicted SV/SVA liver and muscle tissue concentrations were in agreement with the clinically observed efficacy and toxicity outcomes of the investigated conditions. CONCLUSIONS A mechanistically sound SV/SVA population model with clinical applications (e.g., assessment of drug-drug interaction and myopathy risk) was developed, illustrating the advantages of an integrated population PBPK approach.
