[PMID: 38327217 DOI: 10.1002/jcph.2411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
The determination of the appropriate initial dose for tacrolimus is crucial in achieving the target concentration promptly and avoiding adverse effects and poor prognosis. However, the trial-and-error approach is still common practice. This study aimed to establish a prediction model for an initial dosing algorithm of tacrolimus in patients receiving a lung transplant. A total of 210 lung transplant recipients were enrolled, and 26 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) from 18 genes that could potentially affect tacrolimus pharmacokinetics were genotyped. Associations between SNPs and tacrolimus concentration/dose ratio were analyzed. SNPs that remained significant in pharmacogenomic analysis were further combined with clinical factors to construct a prediction model for tacrolimus initial dose. The dose needed to reach steady state tacrolimus concentrations and achieve the target range was used to validate model prediction efficiency. Our final model consisted of 7 predictors-CYP3A5 rs776746, SLCO1B3 rs4149117, SLC2A2 rs1499821, NFATc4 rs1955915, alanine aminotransferase, direct bilirubin, and hematocrit-and explained 41.4% variance in the tacrolimus concentration/dose ratio. It achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.804 (95% confidence interval, 0.746-0.861). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test yielded a nonsignificant P value of .790, suggesting good fit of the model. The predicted dose exhibited good correlation with the observed dose in the early postoperative period (r = 0.748, P less than .001). Our study provided a genotype-guided prediction model for tacrolimus initial dose, which may help to guide individualized dosing of tacrolimus in the lung transplant population in clinical practice.

Assessment of omeprazole and famotidine effects on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in patients following kidney transplant-randomized controlled trial. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1352323. [PMID: 38638867 PMCID: PMC11024357 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1352323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Tacrolimus is metabolized in the liver with the participation of the CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 enzymes. Proton pump inhibitors are used in kidney transplant patients to prevent duodenal and gastric ulcer disease due to glucocorticoids. Omeprazole, unlike famotidine, is a substrate and inhibitor of the enzymes CYP2C19, CYP3A4, CYP3A5. The aim of this study was to compare the impact of omeprazole and famotidine on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. A randomized, non-blinded study involving 22 stabilized adult kidney transplant patients was conducted. Patients received the standard triple immunosuppression regimen and omeprazole 20 mg (n = 10) or famotidine 20 mg (n = 12). The study material consisted of blood samples in which tacrolimus concentrations were determined using the Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immuno Assay method. A single administration of omeprazole increased tacrolimus concentrations at 2 h (day 2) = 11.90 ± 1.59 ng/mL vs. 2 h (day 1 - no omeprazole administration) = 9.40 ± 0.79 ng/mL (p = 0.0443). AUC0-6 amounted to 63.07 ± 19.46 ng × h/mL (day 2) vs. 54.23 ± 10.48 ng × h/mL (day 1), (p = 0.0295). AUC2-6 amounted to 44.32 ± 11.51 ng × h/mL (day 2) vs. 38.68 ± 7.70 ng × h/mL (day 1), (p = 0.0130). Conversely, no significant changes in values of pharmacokinetic parameters were observed for famotidine. Omeprazole significantly increases blood exposure of tacrolimus. The administration of famotidine instead of omeprazole seems safer for patients following kidney transplantation. Clinical Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT05061303.

Effects of CYP3A4*22 and POR*28 variations on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in renal transplant recipients: a meta-analysis of 18 observational studies. BMC Nephrol 2024; 25:48. [PMID: 38321419 PMCID: PMC10848431 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-024-03467-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the association between cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4*22 and cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR)*28 variations and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. METHODS Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science (SCI), MEDLINE, and Embase were systematically searched from inception to August 2022. The outcomes were weight-adjusted daily dose and dose-adjusted trough concentration (C0/Dose). RESULTS The study included 2931 renal transplant recipients from 18 publications. Weight-adjusted daily dose of CYP3A4*1/*1 carriers was 0.04 (WMD = 0.04, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.06), 0.03 (WMD = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.05), 0.02 (WMD = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.03), or 0.02 mg/kg/day (WMD = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.00 to 0.04) higher than CYP3A4*22 carriers in Caucasians at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or 12 months post-transplantation. Conversely, C0/Dose was lower for CYP3A4*1/*1 carriers at 3 days (SMD = -0.35, 95% CI: -0.65 to -0.06), 1 month (SMD = -0.67, 95% CI: -1.16 to -0.18), 3 months (SMD = -0.60, 95% CI: -0.89 to -0.31), 6 months (SMD = -0.76, 95% CI: -1.49 to -0.04), or 12 months post-transplantation (SMD = -0.69, 95% CI: -1.37 to 0.00). Furthermore, C0/Dose of POR*1/*1 carriers was 22.64 (WMD = 22.64, 95% CI: 2.54 to 42.74) or 19.41 (ng/ml)/(mg/kg/day) (WMD = 19.41, 95% CI: 9.58 to 29.24) higher than POR*28 carriers in CYP3A5 expressers at 3 days or 7 days post-transplantation, and higher in Asians at 6 months post-transplantation (SMD = 0.96, 95% CI: 0.50 to 1.43). CONCLUSIONS CYP3A4*22 variant in Caucasians restrains the metabolism of tacrolimus, while POR*28 variant in CYP3A5 expressers enhances the metabolism of tacrolimus for renal transplant recipients. However, further well-designed prospective studies are necessary to substantiate these conclusions given some limitations.

Abstract
Tacrolimus is a calcineurin inhibitor used to prevent rejection in allogenic solid organ transplant recipients, which is metabolized in the liver with cytochrome P450 isoforms 3A4 and 3A5 (CYP3A4, CYP3A5). In turn, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as Omeprazole - a substrate and inhibitor of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 enzymes - are administered to kidney transplant patients in order to prevent duodenal and gastric ulcer disease, associated with the glucocorticoid treatment. Simultaneous administration of both drugs in renal patients has the potential to trigger drug interactions. In fact, there are several mechanisms which may impact the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. Inhibition of the CYP2C19 isoform may suppress the metabolism of omeprazole, subsequently altering its metabolic pathway to be metabolized by the CYP3A4 enzyme in order to maintain adequate biotransformation. Therefore, the competition for CYP3A4 may affect the metabolism of tacrolimus and result in its increased plasma concentrations, as well as in adverse reactions. Another mechanism has been related to the genetic polymorphism of the CYP2C19 isoform. Since all these interactions may lead to dysfunctions of the transplanted kidney, it seems significant to eliminate their consequences, for instance via the administration of drugs which are neither substrates, nor inhibitors of the CYP3A4 enzyme. Finally, the nephrotoxic effect of omeprazole should also be accounted for. Bearing in mind the aforementioned observations, the aim of the presented paper was to review the available studies addressing the effect of omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to investigate the association between ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 1 (ABCB1) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. METHODS A search was conducted in Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science (SCI), MEDLINE, and Embase from inception to November 2022. Outcomes included weightadjusted daily dose (DD) and dose-adjusted trough concentration (C0/Dose). RESULTS A total of 1059 liver or kidney transplant recipients from 14 publications were included. For adult liver transplantation recipients, DD of ABCB1 3435C>T CC carriers was 0.03 mg/kg/day (WMD = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.05, I2 = 0%) higher than ABCB1 3435C>T T carriers at post-transplantation ≤ 7 days; C0/dose of ABCB1 3435C>T CC carriers were 31.88 (WMD = -31.88, 95% CI: -62.32 to -1.45, I2 = 83.5%) or 34.61 (ng/ml)/(mg/kg/day) (WMD = -34.61, 95% CI: -65.26 to -3.97, I2 = 55.3%) lower than ABCB1 3435C>T T carriers at post-transplantation ≤ 7 or 14 days, respectively. No difference in C0/dose was observed for ABCB1 2677G>T/A or ABCB1 1236C>T SNPs in both liver and kidney transplant recipients. CONCLUSION ABCB1 3435C>T SNP might have a potential impact on tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in the early stage after liver transplantation, indicating the probability of individualized immunosuppressive therapy based on genetic polymorphism. Given some limitations, further well-designed prospective studies are warranted to validate these conclusions.

Abstract
Tacrolimus (TAC) is the cornerstone of immunosuppressive therapy for pediatric heart transplantation (HTx) recipients. However, little information is known on the interaction of developmental and genetic variants on TAC disposition in this population, which makes TAC dose optimization more difficult. The aim of study was to investigate the relationship between genotypes and age on TAC concentrations and dosage during the early post-operation period in pediatric HTx recipients. Sixty-six pediatric HTx recipients were enrolled and divided into three groups according to the age (<6, ≥6-≤12, 12-18 years old). CYP3A4/5, POR and ABCB1 polymorphisms were genotyped. The associations between genotypes and age on TAC dose-adjusted trough concentrations (C0/D), dose requirement as well as acute kidney injury (AKI) were evaluated. CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A4*1G were significantly correlated with TAC C0/D and dose requirement in the pediatric recipients ≥ 6 years. The C0/D in children aged ≥ 6-≤12 years and 12-18 years is 2.8 and 4.2 fold of these < 6 years old, respectively. TAC dose requirements in children aged < 6 years were 2.4 times and 3.5 times of these aged ≥ 6-≤12 years and 12-18 years, respectively. Among the same CYP3A5*3 or CYP3A4*1G genotypes, age was positively increased with TAC C0/D and negatively correlated with targeted dose. No genetic variants were found to be associated with AKI during the early post-operation period. CYP3A4/5 genotypes and age should be taken into consideration to TAC dosage in pediatric HTx recipients.

Abstract
Immunosuppressant drugs (ISDs) are routinely used in clinical practice to maintain organ transplant survival. However, these drugs are characterized by a restricted therapeutic index, a high inter- and intra-individual pharmacokinetic variability, and a series of severe adverse effects. In particular, genetic factors have been estimated to play a role in this variability because of polymorphisms regarding genes encoding for enzymes and transporters involved in the ISDs pharmacokinetic. Several studies showed important correlations between genetic polymorphisms and ISDs blood levels in transplanted patients; therefore, this review aims to summarize the pharmacogenetics of approved ISDs. We used PubMed database to search papers on pharmacogenetics of ISDs in adults or pediatric patients of any gender and ethnicity receiving immunosuppressive therapy after kidney transplantation. We utilized as search term: “cyclosporine or tacrolimus or mycophenolic acid or sirolimus or everolimus and polymorphism and transplant”. Our data showed that polymorphisms in CYP3A5, CYP3A4, ABCB1, and UGT1A9 genes could modify the pharmacokinetics of immunosuppressants, suggesting that patient genotyping could be a helpful strategy to select the ideal ISDs dose for each patient.

Abstract
Aims To investigate the effects of ABCB1 DNA methylation in donors on individual differences in tacrolimus blood concentrations following liver transplantation. Methods Twenty‐three donor liver samples carrying the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype were classified into 2 groups based on their initial tacrolimus blood concentrations (C0 >10 μg/L or <5 μg/L) following liver transplantation. ABCB1 mRNA levels in liver tissues and HepG2 cells were determined by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. DNA methylation status in liver tissues and HepG2 cells was determined using Illumina 850 methylation chip sequencing technology and pyrosequencing. 5‐Aza‐2dC was used to reverse methylation in HepG2 cells. Intracellular tacrolimus concentrations were determined by liquid mass spectrometry. Results Genome‐wide methylation sequencing and pyrosequencing analyses showed that the methylation levels of 3 ABCB1 CpG sites (cg12501229, cg00634941 and cg05496710) were significantly different between groups with different tacrolimus concentration/dose (C0/D) ratios. ABCB1 mRNA expression in donor livers was found to be positively correlated with tacrolimus C0/D ratio (R = .458, P < .05). After treatment with 5‐Aza‐2‐Dc, the methylation levels of the ABCB1 CpG sites in HepG2 cells significantly decreased, and this was confirmed by pyrosequencing; there was also a significant increase in ABCB1 transcription, which induced a decrease in intracellular tacrolimus concentrations. Conclusion ABCB1 CpG site methylation affects tacrolimus metabolism in humans by regulating ABCB1 expression. Therefore, ABCB1 DNA methylation in donor livers might be an important epigenetic factor that affects tacrolimus blood concentrations following liver transplantation.

Abstract
We aimed to explore the new biomarkers influencing tacrolimus in vivo behavior in Chinese liver transplant recipients. A total of 418 drug concentration samples of 41 liver transplant patients were collected for modeling. A population pharmacokinetic model was developed using the nonlinear mixed-effects modeling approach. The potential covariates, such as postoperative day (POD), age, body weight, hepatic and renal function, and recipient genetic polymorphisms (ABCB1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, NR1I2) were evaluated using forward-inclusion and backward-elimination methods. A 1-compartment model was used describing the in vivo behavior of tacrolimus in liver transplant patients. The estimates of CL/F and V/F were 8.88 L/h and 495.82 L, respectively. Two covariates, POD and NR1I2 rs2276707 genotypes, were incorporated into the final population pharmacokinetic model, and they could significantly impact the CL/F: CL/F (L/h) = 8.88 × (POD/16)0.18 × e0.91 × NR1I2 × eηCL . The model evaluation and validation indicated a stable and precise performance of the final model. The functional annotation using ENCODE data indicated that rs2276707 was located on the higher peak of the H3K4Me1 and H3K4Me3 histone marker. To our knowledge, this is the first report indicating NR1I2 rs2276707 genotypes is another biomarker impacting tacrolimus clearance in liver transplant recipients. The NR1I2 gene polymorphism may affect the in vivo behavior of tacrolimus by regulating gene expression.

Abstract
Purpose To explore the relationship between rs2291075 polymorphism in SLCO1B1 gene, which encodes an influx transmembrane protein transporter, and tacrolimus dose–corrected trough concentration (C/D, ng ml−1 mg−1 kg−1) in the early period after liver transplantation. Methods CYP3A5 rs776746 and SLCO1B1 rs2291075 polymorphisms of 210 liver transplantation patients and their corresponding donor livers were assessed by PCR amplification and DNA sequencing. The influence of gene polymorphisms on C/D values of tacrolimus was analyzed. The early postoperative period after liver transplantation was divided into the convalescence phase (1–14 days) and stationary phase (15–28 days) according to the change of liver function and tacrolimus C/D values. Results The combined analysis of donor and recipient CYP3A5 rs776746 could distinguish the metabolic phenotype of tacrolimus into three groups: fast elimination (FE), intermediate elimination (IE), and slow elimination (SE), which was entitled the FIS classification system. Tacrolimus C/D ratios of recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 CT and TT carriers were very close and were significantly lower than those of recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 CC genotype carriers in convalescence phase (p = 0.0195) and in stationary phase (p = 0.0152). There were no statistically significant differences between tacrolimus C/D ratios of patients carried with SLCO1B1 rs2291075 CT, TT genotype donors, and those carried with SLCO1B1 rs2291075 CC genotype donors. A model consisting of tacrolimus daily dose, total bilirubin, FIS classification, and recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 could predict tacrolimus C/D ratios in the convalescence phase by multivariate analysis. However, recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 genotype failed to enter forecast model for C/D ratios in stationary phase. Recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 genotype had significant effect on tacrolimus C/D ratios in convalescence phase (p = 0.0300) and stationary phase (p = 0.0400) in subgroup, which excluded the interference come from donor and recipient CYP3A5 rs776746. Conclusion SLCO1B1 rs2291075 could be a novel genetic locus associated with tacrolimus metabolism. The combined analysis of donor and recipient CYP3A5 rs776746, recipient SLCO1B1 rs2291075 genotypes, could be helpful to guide the personalized administration of tacrolimus in early period after liver transplantation.
